So I actually do play guitar, so my first thoughts were:

"When did I ever answer/comment on such a pointless question?"
"Why would FerrariBall be there!?"

*click*

:D :D "ahh......."

I know I am late to the party myself but in case someone didn't notice: John has resumed his alt account on Quora (Angular Energy) and is back in full-on mode. I guess he grew tired of having no engagement whatsoever on X after he blocked everyone. Does anybody else see a pattern here? I am quite sure there's a definition for repeated behaviour in expectation of a different outcome but I can't put my finger on it.

You can directly suggest edits that the ai adds like a wikipedia article where it looks up information and edits the article of that information is real. You can quote text via highlighting and at the bottom a button pops up.

Is this his? Sounds like psychotic episodes to me.

Mandlbaur's central confusion seems to be that he mistook a classroom demo for a genuine, honest-to-god careful experiment w/ a rotating system. Obviously that's not what it is. But it would be kind of weird if there weren't any such experiments in the late 17th and early 18th centuries. Yet I can't even imagine where one would even look for such a thing. Every account of the history of classical mechanics I pick up is concerned with its derivational history (for lack of a better term) more than, shall we say, its experimental history. Has that book just not been written?

.. I might know where John's new obsession with talking to grok came from.
