Fröhliche Solstice >< Perihelion ! #CoSy20181221.2223z >< 20190103.0519z Inaugural YouTube HangOut Sat.Dec,20181229.1000z-7 ( 10am MST )2018 has been productive . While 2019 will be another semiprime , it's just a random number and I expect it to be a transformative year . | This semiprime stuff triggered a spurt of CoSy : : _factors _i : factors ( n -- factors ) .. i>f sqrtf f>i iota i1 +i .. --bac _modi 0=i & at ; This is largely a NewsLetter by references since most that I might say I've said .
-- #Gravity This NewsLetter started as a follow up on the notion of co-authoring an article consolidating the most basic quantitative physics following from the simple observation , as I currently put it at http://cosy.com/#PlanetaryPhysics :
I do feel the analysis needs to start with everybody's undeniable experience of simply throwing a ball in the air and make the quantitative derivation of atmospheric pressure , ie: fundamentally { mass temperature * } to put it in 4th.CoSy reverse Polish . I believe there are a number of papers with graphs which "take it from there" and show the pressure temperature tradeoff across all planets , whatever their atmospheres . It's interesting that gravity can be considered a per-unit-mass force so its tradeoff with velocity is strictly a function of distance . I have no idea what molecular mosh pit distances are . At the radiative "boundary" I look forward to connecting with my computation of radiative equilibrium for arbitrary spectra . Combined with an understanding of the Schwarzschild equation we should have a complete expression for the differential in a voxel for mapping over the entire planetary spherical shell -- which is rather trivial in an APL like CoSy . This will motivate a lot of development of CoSy for a lot of applied physics . The CoSy structures for such things as array multiplication are somewhat permuted from traditional notation . -- #LIFE 2018 has brought relative normalcy after considerable chaos in the final years of my retarded older brother Jack whose damaged brain has been a major influence on the course of my life . One bit of insanity which ended was , at 72 and as my old Culver climbing buddy Gary Neptune immediately said : being a gimp since shattering my left leg in a climbing accident in 1972 , facing charges of assaulting an objectively irrational 35 year old tenant at what would have been CoSy MidSummer Mountain Mela 2017 . It took the entire year defending myself pro se to reach the point of facing my accuser in front of a jury of 12 Teller County peers before , at the pre-trial hearing , the case was dismissed -- he would not face me and my 67 year old witness . I almost feel sorry that I never had the chance to deliver my praise of the 6th Amendment . These days the right to defend one's self is as important to exercise as the right to a lawyer . The egregious waste of Teller County and state moneys on the at least half dozen appearances at the overbooked Cripple Creek court -- with evasion of all opportunities for rational discussion , is a reason why I will be working for any alternative to reelecting Dan May , our Teller & El Paso DA . What a waste . #HeidiJo In June I got an email from a friend from 2008 Ron Paul MeetUp days , HeidiJo Toilion . She was moving back to Colorado from Iowa and looking for a place to stay . I immediately said she could come here and take over the position of property manager . I have rented the small cabin on the property which Jack lived in for a number of years . The first couple was a delight and did some needed fix ups . The second tenant was the nut described above . The most recent turned out to be a pair of deadbeats . And I really don't have time for this crap . Despite how beautiful this place is , I was contemplating just cashing it out and more or less wandering the world . It's just silly for a single old guy . But Heidi immediately added much needed yin -- which apparently entails a great deal of paint -- to the place . Got tenants with a toddler paying a more market rate in the cabin , even got a couple into the li'l Barn , which has no plumbing ( picture from 2011 below ) , who've done great job fixing it up and insulating and even moving in our big old wood stove which keeps the place toasty and clears up some of our deadfall in the process . We've set the place up as WPBnB for the summer . And we've even cleaned out Jack's old bedroom as a guest room where Karthik Krishna is staying until he returns to India in a couple of weeks . So the place is buzzing with life and great deal of fixing up going on . It's heading towards use as the CoSy ashram . Perhaps before CoSy MidSummer Mountain Mela 2019 we might have the first CoSy coding camp for those interested in a working vacation at the front edge of computing language in the Front Range .
