Smarter Every Day - The Archer's Paradox

Sepacore says...

Some interesting arrow science.
Predicting that wobble = warlock.

Hadn't considered the fist bump as a potential health measure.

During greeting processes I've fist bumped a billionaire (he shook his head after, with a smile), refrained from physical contact (sick) and have been told "i killed your family" (many times by a friend, joke deliberately focused on inappropriate things to say), in all cases i knew the person well.

I think the difference in appropriateness is how well you know the individual, and what they're tolerant of. A first bump as a first meeting is a bit off imo as no bond has been built and best left to a generic handshake.
These guys however, had obviously met multiple times, so not a bad idea to freshen things up with some alternatives. Seems the older fella was too quick for this to be their first fist bump.

Also i agree fist bumping is not professional, it's casual.. with or with out a classy explosion.

muscle car is so powerful it wrecks itself

newtboy says...

My motorhead's guess, no differential but instead a spool in the rear and still turning while adding power caused differing loads in the rear tires, causing a terrible wobble as the tires fought each other (and the suspension), ending by ripping out the rear suspension.
EDIT: That's why I use a Detroit locker in my Jeep, it's a spool when you add power, and a differential when you let off power.

So mechanically what happened? Differential failure?

Slow Motion Look Inside An AK-74

newtboy says...

That was cool!
Was anyone else surprised at the amount of wobble in the bolt/piston? I couldn't believe that, with that amount of wobble and deflection, (seen clearly when they remove the upper portion of the tube it rides in) that it could still work at all, much less at speed....but it does. Impressive.
(and yes, I do see clearly that it wobbles more with that tube removed...but it still had some wobble with it there, and more astonishing, it still worked with it gone...again, impressive!)

Spinning A Top In A Vacuum Chamber

messenger says...

Air is friction, same as the spinning surface. I think you mean air friction versus friction from the spinning surface.

Assuming so, consider that without a surface, that top could slow down until it was at rest, but with a surface, the moment it gets below a certain speed, it wobbles and hits the surface and the surface contributes significantly to the slowing down. To truly compare the friction of the surface with the friction of the air, you'd have to factor out the force of the surface stopping the top.

This means, either eliminating the possibility of the top falling in the zero-air method, or only measuring the time until the top falls below the wobble speed threshold. The latter seems easier.

Neat. Makes me wonder how long it would spin in the other extreme, surrounded by air but with zero friction. In my naive mind, I imagine it'd go considerably longer. And of course with zero air and zero friction it'd go on indefinitely.

Air resistance vs. friction. Who will win out?!

His Slide Technique Could Use Some Work

His Slide Technique Could Use Some Work

theali says...

That happen because the slide is not all made from the same material. One strip has more friction, while the other is more slippery causing the kid to wobble, poor guy

Grandmas Smoking Weed for the First Time

Chairman_woo says...

Bingo!

I was already at the "wobbly head stage" of drunkness when my friend broke out "the funk" and I quickly progressed to the "Which way is up? oh shit I'm going to die!" stage.

I also managed a massive whitey the second time I smoked completely without the help of alcohol. No that time it was probably eating 20 packets of cheesy wotsits in around half an hour! (easily the most bizzare vomiting I've ever done)

It's a wonder I kept smoking the stuff!

I'm guessing he was just really drunk. That's a common effect then.

One Woman, 17 British Accents

Dumdeedum says...

Yeah, she can obviously do lots of accents and could probably easily improve, but a lot of those were a bit wobbly. And yes, since we've got eleventy jillion accents over here, there were a lot missing.

Solar FREAKIN' Roadways!

BicycleRepairMan says...

Still have a few questions about this, what if you build like 20 miles of this, and theres a faultline or heat causing two 10-mile halves to separate like 10 cm?, do you upend and move one half after the other?, or do you patch it in with cables and concrete? You might say earthquakes are rare, but even a change in heat can cause the road to expand. I have seen this first hand, I once worked on a bridgeproject on a 5km long bridge, and the edges moves quite a lot due to changes in temperature making the bridge expand or contract.

Im sure this modular concept works fine for building a porch, but making thousands of miles of road under all kinds of conditions, terrain etc is a whole new bag of problems.

I also worked in an office building once, that had these kinds of modular tiles for floors, buildt on stilts, so that you could stretch cables under there (the kind used in server-rooms) again, these things are fine for small server rooms/ilses etc, but when applied to large open office landscapes, they caused all kinds of havok and problems (they became wobbly, uneven, gaps formed etc.) And this was inside, in a brand new building, about as controlled an environment as you can get.

I would love to see these things becoming reality, but highly skeptical that its even doable.

The Mystery of Motion Sickness

sadicious says...

I'm in the back seat with no air circulation, and I'll get sick almost immediately. Front seat in the same situation, and it takes several minutes. Driving, and I can go for an hour or so.

Open a window and things change. I can probably read a book in the back seat for 30 min, but if I need to change focus to horizon-book-horizon, I'll get sick faster. Same with interior-exterior-interior.. I've only ever been sick from video games once when I first played Descent, and with the invention of "Mask poor action scene with wobbly camera", I have felt a few small familiar headaches.
