The Official Burning Ship MSPFA Tumblr!

A young polecat enjoys the idyllic drudgery of being part of a cruise ship's cleaning crew, until one fateful day...

Roman Polytheism was not "anti-colonial."

I made this in reference to comic/game stuff but I’m glad to see this one’s going over well with all the writers

Moo Deng my perfect daughter

[brucebocchi]

i believe i saw, in reference to this video, that moo deng is still too young to eat solid foods, so what we're seeing isn't her actually chewing on anything but just imitating how her mother eats

The first simulated image of a black hole was calculated with an IBM 7040 computer using 1960 punch cards and hand-plotted by French astrophysicist Jean-Pierre Luminet in 1978.

[str-ngeloop]

the romance of hand-plotting. this guy looked at the numbers and drew each of those dots manually, and the image emerged. we can only imagine how he felt

Mandelbrot Set: Iterations 1–9.

Displayed in Microsoft Excel by a four way circular reference:

C3=COMPLEX(C$2,-$B3) JN3=IF(JN274>=3,C274,IMSUM(C3,IMPRODUCT(C274,C274))) C274=IF($A$1,JN3,C3) JN274=IMABS(C274)

Each of the four formulas is filled into 72900 cells to make 270px images. The first grid picks a complex number c = x+yi. The second grid iterates Mandelbrot's rule: c is in the Mandelbrot set if and only if the sequence zₙ₊₁ = zₙ² + c does not diverge. The third grid makes the previous iteration's zₙ₊₁ into the current iteration's zₙ (unless the pause button is set in cell A1 - then this grid reverts to z₀ = c.) The fourth grid takes the absolute value of zₙ so I can show you its magnitude with conditional formatting!

At the top of the post is the fourth grid in iterations z₁ through z₉ with -2<x<1 and -1.5<y<1.5. The ranges for x and y are set dynamically so I can zoom into the fractal arbitrarily :)

Here are the red, green and blue locations from my earlier survey of the Mandelbrot set via its Julia sets.

Or, you can peruse the rest of my Excel fractal art.

is THIS your man? [shows an image of a malnourished injured exhausted man with big sad eyes looking up at the camera with blood smeared all over his face and mouth. and he is visibly trembling]

[tomorrowillbeyou]

maths enjoyers and bug enjoyers and horror movie enjoyers and so forth all need to come together and unite against the common enemy of people telling you how much they hate something as soon as you mention you like it

[tomorrowillbeyou]

literally can't believe i have to say this but i actually don't? want to hear about how much you hate maths in the tags? people are missing the point of the post it isn't about which of these things you like and don't like and which should be added or removed it's about having the basic decency to not constantly tell people you hate their interests when nobody asked. which you're failing to do right now.
