Hi folks. Just a small script which calculates your distance from a lever focal point if you know your weight, the object’s weight and the object’s and the distance the object has from the focal point of the lever. Like this: This script will give you D1. And this is how it will look like in doing so: So, in order for me (77kg) to lift an object of 80kg which is on a, by default, 1 meter long lever, I have to stand back ~1.03meters. Which is totally cool, right? ...

Let’s talk about plans. It’s good to have one. For example, I have a plan for this year. I kind of like math. So, I have this book: It’s 1400 pages long and basically, has everything in it. It’s a rather exhaustive book. Hence, my plan is to finish the book by the end of 2015 and write a couple of python scripts that calculate something interesting. (2021 Hindsight): Yeah, I didn’t manage this… But it’s a cool idea, let’s see if I can get around coming further. I managed to get until 500 pages or so, before life stepped in. ...
