Testing the TK Tar Baby

[WilbyInebriated]

so... it is requested that poynty does not post in greg's thread.
poynty ignores the request and warnings of the admin.
poynty gets the consequence.
poynty then cries persecution.

yet at poynty's forum when you disobey the requests of the admin you get the consequence... and that's all fine and dandy, justified and all. 

your hypocrisy nourishes me...

Dear Poynty

I may have, inadvertently, and indirectly and entirely unintentionally - 'banned' you.  If so - abject apologies.  All I meant to manage was to prevent you posting any more on Greg's thread. 

I think I've corrected the error - and if this means that you can - in fact - post on Greg's thread - then I've STILL not managed what I meant to achieve.  But I'll leave it to Greg to monitor his thread.  I see he's now 'enabled' as a global moderator.

Please respect this Poynty Point.  More than welcome to argue your work with me.  But leave Greg out of this.  He's far better qualified than you are - and is also in the rather enviable position of being able to comment from EMPIRICAL evidence.  Which is something that you've yet to achieve.   And may I add - just for the purposes of this argument - that last equation of yours is a great deal of nonsense.  But if you want to try and justify it - then do it on one of my threads or even on your own.  Greg is actually doing some much needed WORK and I'm sure can manage this better without distractions.  He's well qualified to determine if his results are right or wrong - and I'm entirely satisfied that if he finds error he's got both the required integrity and acumen to acknowledge it. I'm drawing the distinction here that he argues his case and admits his errors when and if there are any - where you simply WITHDRAW from an argument under the spurious pretext of feeling 'insulted'?  Not a strong argument Poynty Point - with respect. 

Kindest regards,
Rosie.=

Awww..... she doesn't have anyone to argue with any more, and she misses being able to talk down to someone above her.

Man, if that's "respect"...... what does disrespect look like in Ainslie-speak?


May I please have permission to calculate Tar Baby's input power the same way Gmeast does for his circuit?

Because when I do it and find 3 or 4 x OU, they will surely tell ME what is wrong with the method.

How many eggs per carton does it take to make a 3-egg omelette? Let's see.

There are 12 eggs per carton of eggs, so there are 12/3 = 4 of the 3-egg omelettes in a carton.

But I'm only going to make one omelette, so I'll just use 1/4 of the carton, iow  12/4 = 3 eggs per carton, averaged across the whole carton of 12.

Now, my intuition and instincts tell me that, since I'm only using 1/4 of the carton, I'm using 25 percent, and not using 75 percent of the carton. And 75 / 25 is 3.  So I should divide my "3 eggs" by 3, which equals 1.

Therefore it only takes one egg to make a three-egg omelette.

Oh.... wait, silly me, that whole 75/25 thing is wrong, because if I take a whole thing and divide it up properly into quarters I should wind up dividing by 4, not 3. So my corrected value is now 3 eggs / 4, which equals 0.75 egg.

So it actually only takes 0.75 egg to make a three-egg omelette, and I have an overunity ratio COP_egg of 3.0/0.75 = 4 !

And an RMS_egg calculation yields a similar result !!
