UmbralRaptor: stare at QM
<bofh>
here to answer questions if you have any, fwiw
<bofh>
for that + statmech as well
<UmbralRaptor>
Thanks. Though currently I'm not sure what to ask.
<egg|anbo|egg>
maybe ANBOcat can help with the QM
<UmbralRaptor>
Does ANBOcat eggshibit simultaneous reflection and transmission when approaching a step barrier?
<UmbralRaptor>
Alternatively, have you found ANBOcat in a classically forbidden region?
<egg|laptop|egg>
Does ANBOcat eggshibit simultaneous reflection and transmission when approaching a step barrier << not when I look at it, quantum Zeno effect
<egg|laptop|egg>
it generally waits until nobody is looking to jump on the bathtub on the way to the sink where it drinks

clearly because otherwise it has to fight quantum Zeno effect
<egg|laptop|egg>
bofh: are blackcat and stripey affected by quantum zeno

(which i guess is a translation of capitán de fragata, there are references to him in 1998 as capitán de corbeta)

bofh: ah i think their approach involves orbits that are periodic in the inertial frame, so then you need that period to be one rotational period to get periodicity in the rotating frame
<egg|zzz|egg>
tbh even if you directly look for orbits periodic in the rotating frame the number of orbits per period discretizes things no matter what you do
<egg|zzz|egg>
it's just that you should have another degree of freedom

I'm not sure moths flying is a big deal.
<UmbralRaptop>
wait, I thought corvette was en-UK for frigate?
<egg|zzz|egg>
no, a corvette is more smol
<UmbralRaptop>
(surface ship that was smaller than a destroyer in the 1940s, but is now large enough that the difference between an FFG and a CG is ambiguous)
<egg|zzz|egg>
larger than a brig, smoler than a frigate
<egg|zzz|egg>
also i think you mean en-GB
<UmbralRaptop>
probably o_O
<egg|zzz|egg>
UmbralRaptop: yes but the names of ranks date back to sail times, so referred to the sailships with those names
<egg|zzz|egg>
e.g. "ship" in that sense being ship-of-the-line, frigates and smoler don't count
<egg|zzz|egg>
UmbralRaptop: bofh: "ship sloop" is apparently an equivalent of corvette in en-whatever?
<UmbralRaptop>
I haven't heard that one before.
<UmbralRaptop>
I thought sloop was a kind of sail configuration?
<UmbralRaptop>
egg|zzz|egg: summon Iskierka or Pinkbeast?
<egg|zzz|egg>
(the frigate having 40 guns and the corvette 24)
<Iskierka>
sloop in modern terms is a sail arrangement. and frigates and corvettes are both ships of the line - just very small ones. corvettes would be sixth-rates
<Iskierka>
old terminology may be less strict about what a sloop is given it's a term that developed before corvette did
