There is not a reasonable and fair minded poster here who would agree with you.
Your inferiority complex and festering resentment are not my fault.

Wasn't that an old Marx Brothers schtick that Mel Brooks repeated in Young Frakenstein?

IMO, BidenPresident either has a very serious gay chip on his shoulder or he's a RW POE.

I stopped reading your posts because you are an intellectual fraud who refuses to debate. Not interested in your pathetic, self-pitying complaints. If you are man enough to have an intellectual debate, let us do it. If you're a coward who can only whine, leave me out. If your response is another personal attack, my absence is the answer.
I leave you to fester in your resentment.
For the record, you said a lot of incorrect things about physics and science here, but I refrained from giving the Deplorables ammunition against you.
It can be used to describe motion and orbit. How else did they do the calculations on the IBM mainframe for the Apollo program?
Unfathomable why he is so angry at me, and festers in resentment over me.
I think at least by message board standards, my threads and posts are generally of an elevated nature of discourse.
I even enjoyed the exchanges with poster 61!

He's not angry at you. You're just his latest whipping boy.
My best advice is to always consider the source when evaluating critiques and criticisms.
A word of caution, however. You risk being called an arrogant asshole if you do.
Yo what did ITN mean when he said that the Newton's law doesn't describe motion?
F = G(m1*m2)/r^2
F = G(m1*m2)/r^2
It demonstrates how Newton's first law (inertial motion) is converted to free-falling (orbital) motion.
Yeah.
Just plug in vectors and time in the equation and ta-da! you can approximate the orbits.
It's best to assume INT is just consistently ass-backwards wrong, time after time after time

Let's start with the basic fact I don't know shit about Newton's math on gravitational bodies and how they interact. Just assume I'm a "How big of a shovel or a gun do I need and how many people do I have" type of guy. It really helps. TIA
As for applied behavioral psychology, that's an area where I have more experience. Here's one basic rule: It's irrational to try to rationalize with an irrational person. Basic critical thinking.
Sure, no one person can fully understand another. Remember the Clone Conversation? Everyone is an individual. Likewise, there are clear ranges of what is normal and/or rational compared to what is outside the norms and/or irrational.
Every person has their instincts and behavior based on their genetics (a very small part) and their culture (a very large part). Some choose to react positively like the "Life is 10% of what happens to you and 90% of how you react to it" mindset. We all want to better ourselves and our families. That's just being human. The 99.5+% part we all share genetically. The rest is superficial and, mostly, cultural**.
**Cultural means it is taught to the individual. A person taught in Arabic numerals, specific beliefs about physical, mental and spiritual might vary greatly from a person taught in Roman numerals and other beliefs. History proves this point over and over again. Especially the last 500 years as human technology improved weaponry creating vast and quicker changes in the areas of our past world.
Yeah. Just weird that he would say it doesn't describe motion. Granted on it's own, it just calculates the force between two masses at a distance at a time. The time aspect is what describes the motion. a = v/t.
Nice work. My knowledge is generally weak on psychology and the social sciences, and I would like to up my game.
I might start a thread about the emminent William James in the near future!

What more would one expect of an irrational person?
Trump's greatest superpower is charismatic salesmanship. It works but like any gimmick, it only works for so long. Anyone on this forum who claims they're over 65 and have never been suckered shouldn't be fooling anyone.
An analogy for sanity/insanity is a whirlpool. Like a black hole, but a 2-dimensional water hole. Most are outside the forces and recognize the dangers. A few are tantalized by it. Some come close to being sucked in. Some are sucked in and unlikely to recover.

It's always admirable to up one's game. Unfortunately, after hitting age 65, I've gone on "Cruise mode" a lot. LOL As most people should expect rational people to do, it's good to "up my game" for fun. Keeping updated on politics is a fun way to have outside interests.
I'd still like to take time to read, and understand, "The Tao of Physics". It's on my bucket list.
I spend plenty of downtime playing video games, vegging out, watching crap movies.
But I am approaching 60, and I think exercising the mind is going to be equally important as exercising the body.
I just do not want to become as disgustingly fat and dull witted as Donald Trump!

Keeping both active is a good thing. I'm currently working on expanding myself in both areas. The increasing heat becomes an issue, but a few hours every day is working out.
There are noticeable spots lacking on store shelves. While I like being retired and am fine, seeing the economy improving reasonably well is always a good thing.
I sometimes watch 80's movies for the nostalgia.
