Physics for the Birds

Physics for the Birds

I share things that I get excited about: math, physics, electronics, programming, music -- anything that requires taking things apart. My goal is to explain it simply enough that any 4th grader will be inspired and rigorously enough that any professor will be convinced.

    My hypothesis for the cake: Cakes puff up either by baking powder or air expanding from the beaten egg whites; But the batter is not strong enough to hold the cake all the way up like a normal cake; So the pattern is a result of the rising and falling of batter which get fixed once the cake finished baking. I’m not a mathematician so please correct me if I’m wrong, but from what I can understand that the essence of Turing patterns is the balance of two colours/properties that are antagonistic of each other? That one restricts the other and the local minimal of one colour is where this colour will reappear again?

    there is no way i can go cross eyed in that direction, in the other it's extremely easy but going past that I make any brainwaves to make me do that it's just not possible I say! ok I try the light trick, even when trying to focus on the light is a bit tricky but somewhat easy but going back to the screen just snaps back to normal vision it's just not possible for me...

    It's not exactly math, but I have recorded and looked at a spectrogram for a vibraphone and it has literally zero overtones or harmonics. It's just a single line. I belive the reason is because it is grinded down in the middle of each bar, so it can't vibrate for any other tones than the one. My physics teacher constantly bullies me and calls it a horribly boring instrument, comparable to a tuning fork...

    If you have a lights out-style puzzle with a zero determinant on its moveset matrix, does that mean that, in addition to states with multiple unique solutions, there are also states with zero solutions? Intuitively that seems likely but I am le tired right now so

    I... Am usually pretty good at these puzzles, In an intuitive sense. Maybe it's my math brain, But I tend to just kinda feel them out. The issue is always when I get to the final moments, And everything seems to have _not_ worked out. Either way, Learning about the math behind them was quite interesting.

    One thing you neglected to mention is that the "walleyed" and "crosseyed" technique, while they can both _see_ the image, see it _inverted._ Most magic eye books are designed for the walleyed method, where you focus past the image, and so you see it pop out. But if you use the cross-eye method, where you focus in front of the image, you'll see it sunken in, instead; a shark-shaped divot in a floating plane. Some are designed for the cross-eye method, though, so then the walleye method gets it inverted. This is because, obviously, going walleyed diverges your vision, moving your left vision left and your right vision right, while going crosseyed crosses it, moving your left vision right and your right vision left.

    "Hey wouldn't simple pop music based on a few chords and a simple but catchy melody sound funny if we made it complex? So funny right?" There's nothing wrong with simplicity. But it's not better. Pop would also sound weird with prog drums all over it or blues harmonica or romantic era motifs or opera choruses or gregorian chanting or heavy metal guitar or a million other things.

    This feels like a good segue into an RSA followup, which is also cryptography and modular arithmetic. But unlike Hill ciphers you cannot (easily) derive the decryption key from the encryption. Or more accurately, the encryption/decryption are not symmetric operations. I didn't take a cryptography class but it was a part of my compsci curriculum.

    I understood very little of Linear Algebra. Failed the course in undergrad, then had to work with it again in grad school for medical imaging. It finally clicked when I found a video about how they put the Line of Scrimmage and First Down Line on a football broadcast :) It's wonderful to see a similar experience from Zelda
