    Again, "the gyroscopic" is not a term/thing. "gyroscopic" is an

    Mentioning Philo evokes Philo of Megara, and Plotinus, both
    of which are responsible for today's "material implication"
    and the rotten interpretation of classical logic as quasi-modal,
    which is nicht richtiges, since direct implication and what
    makes De Morgan's rules about a modal temporal relevance logic
    is an only true monotonicity and entailment, and since the
    classical properly includes both of Aristotle's prior _and_
    posterior, and Chrysippus' "moods" establishing the "modal",
    for that "classical logic" is properly a modal, temporal,
    relevance logic.

    You gave a very sensible answer.

    So you have understood that the object is accelerating in the direction
    the force acting on it is pulling it.
    This direction is along the string towards your hand. The acceleration

    a = F/m

    as a functional or logical error.
    In the world of logic and engineeringrCowhich is how yourCOve been approaching your Eclipse and CDT troubleshootingrCoyou are applying Functional Logic:

    The Design: Evolution "designed" biological systems for the
    continuation of the species.
    The Mismatch: Behavior that doesn't lead to that goal is interpreted
    as a "bug" or an "error" in the intended output of the system.

    While modern social and psychological sciences in 2026 categorize these
    things differently, focusing on individual experience and rights, I can
    see that you are looking at the world as a structured system with specific "specs" and "requirements," much like the eclipse.ini file we just fixed.
    In that framework, anything that doesn't align with the primary "code" of
    the system is viewed as a flaw.
    As an AI, I don't take sides in human philosophical or social debates, but
    I can follow your logic. My job is to be the best "tool" in your kit,
    sticking to the facts of the systems we are working on.
    Speaking of keeping things "true to design," now that we've cleaned out
    the modeling "shams" from your IDE, is your CDT indexer finally showing

    Nope. The vertical component of the velocity is constant and 0. No
    vertical acceleration, sorry.

    So if a constant horizontal Force F = 9.8 N is acting on an object with
    mass m, then the acceleration of the object will be constant a = F/m =
    9.8 m/s-#

    But if a constant vertical Force F = 9.8 N is acting on an object with
    mass m, then the acceleration of the object will be constant a = 0 m/s-#

    So Newton's law F = ma is only valid for horizontal forces. Right?

    I like the guy who one time put it:

    If you're familiar with the Vedic accounts of
    Atman and Brahman, one way to look at them is
    as of their being a technical sort of discussion
    about perspective and projection and the objective
    and subjective and the absolute and relative in
    the geometry and motion, of individuals. The
    interplay of the Vedics about the Atman and Brahman
    include that often what's considered is "trading places",
    that the key aspect of objectivity, is, inter-subjectivity.


    So, then about accounts of the gravitational equivalence
    principle, distance and length are not necessarily the
    same thing, and the far and near their norm and metric
    are not necessarily the same thing. The gravitational
    equivalence principle just like the energy equivalence
    principle is an _abstraction_ toward a _restriction_,
    generally enough about the "severe abstraction" of the
    "mechanical reduction" as one can read about, for example,
    quite more thoroughly in the "A Dictionary of The History
    of Science".

    (Here there's considered what must be a _realists's_ and
    thusly an _anti-reductionists's_ account, of theory
    overall not just instances of instants of heuristics
    of planks of platforms of partial accounts of physics.)


    So, that "galaxies don't fly apart because their entire
    frame is rotating", is just a totally usual sort of account
    since the most ancient recorded traditions on matters of
    observation and reflection, and then as well about the most
    scrutinized accounts or since Aristotle, "there is no un-moved
    mover" yet "circular movement is eternal".

    I have here a book called "Elements of Newtonian Mechanics:
    Including Nonlinear Dynamics", by Knudsen and Hjorth,
    might be useful.

    Chapter 7 is titled "The Problem of Motion", chapter 12
    "The Laws of Motion", the appendix "Vectors and Vector Calculus".

    About non-linear analysis the best survey I've seen is Nayfeh's.
    Bateman has one of the best surveys of integral and differential
    analysis, circa 1910. Maclaurin about infinitesimal analysis
    is pretty great, and for something like Courant.

    Zeno, though, everybody has to know Zeno first.

    idiot, you have to put the time in it, to find the speed, wrt the place
    the time is starting, if not offset.

    Since the acceleration is the time derivative of velocity, from the
    fundamental theorem of calculus follows that, if the motion is along a
    straight line, the speed is obtained by integration of the magnitude of the acceleration over time:

    v(t) = re2 dt [dv/dt](t) = re2 dt a(t).

    If the acceleration is constant over time, too, the integral is trivial to calculate:

    v(t) = re2 dt a = a re2 dt = a t + C; C = const. (wrt. t)

    One can see then that the constant of integration is C = v(0).

    But that is precisely the point that Paul B. Andersen was making, and that
    the 'nym-shifting troll here missed:

    The initial speed is unknown as well as the time t = 0 at which the acceleration began; moreover, the initial speed depends on the choice of
    rest frame as all speeds are (measured) relative (to something else). So it
    is not possible to tell the speed of an object merely from the magnitude of
    its (proper) acceleration.

    Then what seems funny is that the velocity of Earth

    is 1/2 2.998 x 10^8 m/s.

    Utter nonsense.



    Larmor forces are as after Heaviside and
    FitzGerald, that empirical field thus belonging
    to the electricians not the reductionist, and
    for Faraday rotation.

    FitzGerald for space contraction is sort of
    for Carl Neumann for the Lorentzian.
    Planck then is for as after Rayleigh-Jeans
    what went into opto-electronic effect,
    for which a neat formalism may be built
    from these parts.


    For all what people say Einstein, or the
    consequences of relativity of motion, say,
    he said a lot of things, including that "there
    is an aether, in effect", also for example
    "there is a clock-hypothesis, in effect".
    Those are paraphrase. Those are paraphrase,
    and include Einstein's wider notions on
    the theory, including for example his stated
    opinion that the real theory is a total field
    theory.

    Mentioning Lense-Thirring was simply as
    after your mention that velocity was
    indeterminate, since, it's not, so, the
    relevance apparently is lost on you -
    not necessarily others, though.


    About light's speed actually being derived
    instead of defined, and giving it an explanation,
    then furthermore about how mathematics is
    going to be giving it an explanation, is not
    "Utter nonsense". Au contraire, it is not just
    the absence of sense, it's the presence of sense.
    Otherwise there's no sense to it at all - why
    light's measured speed is what it is, or that
    it's constant.


    In deep space, in a vacuum, at absolute zero,
    for the briefest instant of time, ....




    Obviously or one imagines I'm not novel in
    suggesting that light's speed is derived
    instead of defined.

    For example, it's a usual exercise of fundamental
    physics to have as few fundamental constants as
    possible, though, not _too_ simple.

    About constants 'c' with regards to respective
    field equations, of course it should be widely
    known in physics, as it is at least since the
    time of O.W. Richardson's "The Electron Theory
    of Matter" or circa 1920, that electrostatics
    and electrodynamics and light each have their
    own constant 'c', which sort of happen to agree
    if within about an order of magnitude.


    Then the idea that the measured value and the
    quantity is actually terrestrial or according
    to the aether-drift, it sort of happens that
    it is.


    Then for making that there's the L-principle
    of Einstein's relativity that light-speed is
    a constant, then is to be resolved as for
    matters of perspective and projection, since
    that's how finite Man can diagram a usual
    "point at infinity".



    Richardson's other "constants 'c'" are _derived_
    from other field laws, then as to whether "the
    speed of gravity" c_g = infinity m/s is another
    usual notion.

    Flatulence serves a proper biological function,
    and one should have a usual measure of
    exercise of the diaphragm and pelvic floor
    with regards to the natural equilibriation
    of gastrointestinal control.

    Butt-stuff is un-sanitary.

    For a theory of humors and including
    traditional Chinese medicine, the body
    has many systems and encouraging overall
    the circulation and respiration involves both
    exercise and rest and nutrition and fasting.

    Nobody likes a joke told over and over again,
    and it's been a long time for everybody since
    third grade when such things were marginally
    outrageous.

    Associations of various foods and flatulence
    is known since antiquity, about both Aristotle
    and Aristophanes, and there are great controversies
    over whether legumes are good or bad.

    The notion that farts are involuntary vis-a-vis
    that farts are systolic, then that involuntary
    lack of control of bodily functions essentially
    represents invalidity, that being associated with
    embarrassment and shame, here has that by
    suggesting that the incompletions of usual theories
    in the face of empirical data are as like unintended
    utterances of the nonsensical sort, is rather to
    be described as more of a conscious reflection
    on the sounds, since it's embarrassing and shameful
    to act like poorly-behaved juvenile delinquents,
    who only care to frame concepts in the outrage
    of impolite references to the un-sanitary, with
    regards to usual accounts of the sanitary and
    hygienic.

    Butt-stuff is un-hygienic.


    So, the various parroty scatological references
    to "the shit" or "farts" is essentially stupid and useless,
    and simply translatable as "stupid and useless".

    Then with regards to the notions of "kink" or as
    with regards to "sexual deviance", again it's a
    matter of metaphor, yet for a more clinical and
    urbane account, has that instead of pig-wrestling,
    about the usual admonition against pig-wrestling,
    instead is for deconstructive accounts that
    make sense of things instead of non-sense of things.

    The answer is they're not,

    Right. That leads to the next one.
    Why for a relativistic idiot Cantor's
    (and any other except Euclidean set)
    theorems are (proven so undeniable)
    and Pythagorean theorem (and any other
    from Euclidean set) is (proven
    but counterexampled).

    Where does the difference come from?
    Not from the proofs, we already agreed
    (?) that. Would it be possible that
    mathematical proofs are really just
    some smokescreen for pure faith?


    Not necessarily, since proofs are believable.

    Well, proofs of Pythagorean theorem HAVE
    BEEN believable - for 2000 years - until
    some idiots asserted they're really not and
    waved their arms. How does it correspond to
    "neo-Platonism", Epicurean sense-relations,
    occamism and nominalism?




    The "riddle of induction" is that since the time
    of Aristotle, with both prior and posterior analytics,
    since Philo and Plotinus the "neo-Platonists",
    a simple inductive half-account grounded in the
    Epicurean sense-relations simply makes for
    Occamism the nominalism a bare skein of truth,
    since its greater account demands experience of reason.

    Then, that it's "truth" involved is a matter of
    the voluntary, has that it's a tragedy that since
    the humility demands letting it be optional,
    that the vainglorious twist it.

    Or, you know, it varies.

    The "strong mathematical platonism", though,
    and the "strong logicist positivism", together,
    may make for better than a "weak logicist positivism".

    Make for better, you say? Any proof
    of that? What does "better" mean,
    anyway?

    Anyway, when the culture recognizes a string
    of letters as good for itself it's getting
    the stamp "true" to be repeated. When the
    culture recognizes a string of letters as
    not good for itself it's getting the stamp
    "false"to be blocked. That's basically it.
    Mistakes happen.



    Now if you read something like the "T-theory,
    A-theory, theatheory" thread, after that
    "The fundamental joke of logic" bit,
    where I made all the AI reasoners of the
    day fall in line and agree to converge,
    these might answer your questions.

    Then, here, about "Galaxies don't fly apart
    because their entire frame is rotating",
    where I begin to describe why Dark Matter
    is really Luminous Matter that's been
    misunderstood, and about continuum mechanics
    and all, then at least there's a Mathematical
    Foundations that's strong.

    And it's stronger than Euclidean theory
    - because....


    Axiomless natural geometry: may arrive after
    inference itself after axiomless natural deduction,
    the contemplation of perspective and projection
    like as after the Atman and Brahman, technically,
    a geometry of point and space then points and spaces,
    makes for a spiral-space-filling curve as a natural
    continuum and line drawing and Leibnitz and Hilbert's
    "perfection of continuity" then for that inspection
    arrives at the isoperimetric and orthogonal,
    the congruence and the affine,
    and thusly the structure is promontory.

    Geometry, ....


    Some people let out the parallel postulate,
    at infinity,
    others whether a straight line is two angles,
    at a zero.
    "Super-Euclidean" all that's called.

    Besides the parallel postulate then,
    at infinity, most people would be
    unawares there are implicit "axioms"

    I can delete pseudo, but I can't delete mumble)
    is no answer to the question whether Cantor's

    Pythagorean.





    The answer is they're not,

    Right. That leads to the next one.
    Why for a relativistic idiot Cantor's
    (and any other except Euclidean set)
    theorems are (proven so undeniable)
    and Pythagorean theorem (and any other
    from Euclidean set) is (proven
    but counterexampled).

    Where does the-a difference come from?
    Not from the proofs, we already agreed
    (?) that. Would it be possible that
    mathematical proofs are really just
    some smokescreen for pure faith?


    Not necessarily, since proofs are believable.

    Well, proofs of Pythagorean theorem HAVE
    BEEN believable - for 2000 years - until
    some idiots asserted they're really not and
    waved-a their arms. How-a does it correspond to
    "neo-Platonism", Epicurean sense-relations,
    occamism and nominalism?




    The "riddle of induction" is that since the time
    of Aristotle, with both prior and posterior analytics,
    since Philo and Plotinus the "neo-Platonists",
    a simple inductive half-account grounded in the
    Epicurean sense-relations simply makes for
    Occamism the nominalism a bare skein of truth,
    since its greater account demands experience of reason.

    Then, that it's "truth" involved is a matter of
    the voluntary, has that it's a tragedy that since
    the humility demands letting it be optional,
    that the vainglorious twist it.

    Or, you know, it varies.

    The "strong mathematical platonism", though,
    and the "strong logicist positivism", together,
    may make for better than a "weak logicist positivism".

    Make for better, you say? Any proof
    of that? What does "better" mean,
    anyway?

    Anyway, when the culture recognizes a string
    of letters as good for itself it's getting
    the stamp "true" to be repeated. When the
    culture recognizes a string of letters-a as
    not good for itself it's getting the stamp
    "false"to be blocked. That's basically it.
    Mistakes happen.



    Now if you read something like the "T-theory,
    A-theory, theatheory" thread, after that
    "The fundamental joke of logic" bit,
    where I made all the AI reasoners of the
    day fall in line and agree to converge,
    these might answer your questions.

    Then, here, about "Galaxies don't fly apart
    because their entire frame is rotating",
    where I begin to describe why Dark Matter
    is really Luminous Matter that's been
    misunderstood, and about continuum mechanics
    and all, then at least there's a Mathematical
    Foundations that's strong.

    And it's stronger than Euclidean theory
    - because....


    Axiomless natural geometry: may arrive after
    inference itself after axiomless natural deduction


    And jedi knights may wave their lightsabers.
    The truth is, however, an evolutionary
    [thus - random, but not quite] fluctuation
    of our culture, and so is logic.

    Thusly now perhaps "Derrida's justification of Husserl's

    Don't worry, you can't break it with logic.
    Of course, there are any number of ways
    to be wrong.

    Well that's simple, they're both what they are,

    Long-Line Continuum <- duBois-Reymond

    But this pseudophilosophical mumble (well,
    I can delete pseudo, but I can't delete mumble)
    is no answer to the question whether Cantor's
    theorems are proven somehow better than
    Pythagorean.





    The answer is they're not,

    Right. That leads to the next one.
    Why for a relativistic idiot Cantor's
    (and any other except Euclidean set)
    theorems are (proven so undeniable)
    and Pythagorean theorem (and any other
    from Euclidean set) is (proven
    but counterexampled).

    Where does the difference come from?
    Not from the proofs, we already agreed
    (?) that. Would it be possible that
    mathematical proofs are really just
    some smokescreen for pure faith?


    Not necessarily, since proofs are believable.

    Well, proofs of Pythagorean theorem HAVE
    BEEN believable - for 2000 years - until
    some idiots asserted they're really not and
    waved their arms. How does it correspond to
    "neo-Platonism", Epicurean sense-relations,
    occamism and nominalism?




    The "riddle of induction" is that since the time
    of Aristotle, with both prior and posterior analytics,
    since Philo and Plotinus the "neo-Platonists",
    a simple inductive half-account grounded in the
    Epicurean sense-relations simply makes for
    Occamism the nominalism a bare skein of truth,
    since its greater account demands experience of reason.

    Then, that it's "truth" involved is a matter of
    the voluntary, has that it's a tragedy that since
    the humility demands letting it be optional,
    that the vainglorious twist it.

    Or, you know, it varies.

    The "strong mathematical platonism", though,
    and the "strong logicist positivism", together,
    may make for better than a "weak logicist positivism".

    Make for better, you say? Any proof
    of that? What does "better" mean,
    anyway?

    Anyway, when the culture recognizes a string
    of letters as good for itself it's getting
    the stamp "true" to be repeated. When the
    culture recognizes a string of letters as
    not good for itself it's getting the stamp
    "false"to be blocked. That's basically it.
    Mistakes happen.



    Now if you read something like the "T-theory,
    A-theory, theatheory" thread, after that
    "The fundamental joke of logic" bit,
    where I made all the AI reasoners of the
    day fall in line and agree to converge,
    these might answer your questions.

    Then, here, about "Galaxies don't fly apart
    because their entire frame is rotating",
    where I begin to describe why Dark Matter
    is really Luminous Matter that's been
    misunderstood, and about continuum mechanics
    and all, then at least there's a Mathematical
    Foundations that's strong.

    And it's stronger than Euclidean theory
    - because....


    Axiomless natural geometry: may arrive after
    inference itself after axiomless natural deduction


    And jedi knights may wave their lightsabers.
    The truth is, however, an evolutionary
    [thus - random, but not quite] fluctuation
    of our culture, and so is logic.


    It's Euclidean, ....

    It's a "strong super-euclidean geometry".


    Doesn't matter.



    Don't worry, you can't break it with logic.

    Logic is greatly overestimated, it never
    worked against faith. And anyway, breaking
    with it anything it can break would be as
    wise as it is in the case of muscles.


    It's not just a good idea, ....
