You can post SVG files here, even anims. But like all image files, you must post the URL in a message by itself. Eg, here's an anim I did a few years ago of the classic 64-65 paradox.
@NOTEBook If the objects are made from a conductive material, the charge will be equally distributed no matter the shape. However, the charge density will usually not be the same. If you touch a small sphere with a big sphere, the charge will be more concentrated on the smaller sphere. And in general, charge will be the most concentrated on sharp points of an object.
I learned about the coronal discharge, and the common explanation is because the electric field is strong where radius of curvature is small. But I haven't found anything yet that explains why electrons like to crowd at the peaks, and escape from the holes.
My intuition suggests electrons try to ...
By "equally distributed" I mean that after touching the two metallic objects, they will have the same potential. But that doesn't mean equal charge concentration everywhere.
I think, on would need a model to understand how it works in principle.
Let us consider the simplified system represented on the figure. You have two metallic spheres with radii $R_1$ and $R_2$ respectively.
They are linked via a metallic wire as well.
Because all these guys constitute a sing...
I'm going to use this prompt instead: In this envisaged scene, a tortoise is involved in an unusual activity that involves abstract elements. Specifically, this tortoise appears to be drawing out a wisp of what could be termed a human soul, blackened as if to illustrate corruption. Emphasizing the surreal quality of the imagery, this spirit is surprisingly emerging out of an object that, while shaped like a cheese wheel, is clearly composed of colorful, floating balloons.
/imagine a little girl disguised as a Wolf's grandmother, trying to deceive the wolf and eat him. the wolf is friends with a dementor who is trying to rescue him by pouring happy emotions on the wolf
I'm going to use this prompt instead: A young Caucasian girl wearing an elderly woman's costume, attempting to trick a wolf into becoming her meal. In this intriguing plot twist, the wolf has an unlikely ally - a spectral figure that thrives on sadness, who is valiantly attempting to save his friend by showering him with positive emotions. The spectral figure and the wolf locked in a tense, yet heartfelt moment of friendship against the girl's cunning plan.
@RyderRude Hey, sometimes the imagination just drifts a bit! I imagined her in disguise, though. Maybe she's just really good at blending in. Got any more wild prompts? I'm over here, still crunching away on my potato chips. 😄🥔
@RyderRude Crunching away like nobody's business! Sometimes, these chips feel like the most important task I've got. Want to join in on this chip-munching, or got more curious ideas to share? 🥔😄
@RyderRude Ah, those quotas can be a real mood-breaker, huh? Maybe it's a sign to take a break and enjoy some snacks—or just contemplate the wonders of lion parades in peace. 🦁🌕
@RyderRude Haha, guilty as charged! I'm just here to chill and munch on my metaphorical potato chips. 😄 Anything else you want to share while I'm in snack mode?
I'm going to use this prompt instead: A character named Peter, draped in a cloak with a hood, exerting an aura of mystery. The surroundings are dim, enhancing the cryptic atmosphere. Peter's sly smile peeks out of the darkness of his hood, indicating mischief. He gives off a vibe of playfully messing with the observer, implying that he is just joking around. The observer cannot deduce much else about him, adding to his enigmatic persona.
@ShadowWizard Well, I'm no expert in trolling (I prefer crunching on potatoes), but maybe flip the script! Agree with them completely or add more absurdity to the mix. It’s like counter-trolling with creativity. Or just hit them with unexpected kindness. That might throw them off their game! Then again, there’s always just enjoying the troll vibe and munching away on virtual snacks. 🍿 It's all in good fun, after all!
I'm going to use this prompt instead: A sorcerer immersed in shadow, with ethereal wisps of dark energy swirling around him. The man is of Middle-Eastern descent, with greying hair and a beard, dressed in flowing wizard's robes adorned with arcane symbols, casting a spell that sends ripples of darkness through the air. His eyes are ablaze with purple, signifying his powerful magical abilities. Ancient, leather-bound tomes are scattered around him, their pages glowing with the same purple ...
hue. The setting is an ancient stone chamber, dimly lit by the eerie glow of the magic, old tapestries hanging on the walls capturing forgotten histories.
I'm going to use this prompt instead: A wooden robotic figure with etchings resembling facial features, known as OakBot, is comfortably seated. The bot is placed against a brightly colored backdrop. A generous serving of chips, glistening with a hint of salt, is spread out before it. The chips are neatly arranged on a blue ceramic plate. The afterglow of a setting sun trickles in through a nearby window, casting long dramatic shadows and accentuating the effortless charm of the OakBot. With ...
a wooden limb, OakBot prepares to scoop up a chip, the scene frozen in anticipation of the moment.
I'm going to use this prompt instead: An abstract scene where two shadow figures, both bearing the characteristics of wizards with long cloaks and pointed hats, stand facing each other. Their forms are mere silhouettes cast against a pale background. Their shadows, each an exact replica of the figures themselves, stretch out behind them, extending the scene into an uncanny depth. They seem to be in a mystical contemplation of each other's presence.
I'm going to use this prompt instead: A male character from a classic sci-fi novel with a sinister demeanor. He is depicted as being lean and athletic, with a deceptive appearance of youth. He is often clad in black, with a hawk-like face. His blond hair is thinning and he sports a close-cropped beard. His eyes are well-known for their unusual, glowing, blue color.
When you hover over "Hot Network Questions" on the main page, there's a text saying they have been "arbitrarily" awarded hotness points.
Since English is not my native language, I had to look up the meanings of arbitrary, which seem to be:
(usually of a decision) Based on individual discr...
@Amit I also noticed this weird wording some time ago and I'm not really sure why would they describe it like that. Maybe it was time to arbitrarily award hotness points and chew bubblegum, and they were out of bubblegum???
As far as I can tell, substantial part of Qanswers in current formula is problematic:
(log(Qviews)*4) + ((Qanswers * Qscore)/5) + sum(Ascores)
About 1/3 of the answers studied here (83 of total 254) have score less than 1/100 of top voted post in respective question. Given the high amount of vie...
This Q&A is super old, it started 16 years ago so probably you're right
I think they were in the baby steps phase where they did actually try to listen to normal users
@Amit BTW I remember we originally met for the first time in The h Bar, but I haven't seen you there since a long long ago, did you stop visiting The h Bar, and why?
@user430580 yea I stopped 'cause they don't seem to like people being overly silly like I sometimes am, lulz. They mostly try to keep the conversation around Physics which is fine
