An equation is a description which is surely an artifact of the mind. At least I'm using forces. So you are saying lift isn't provided as I describe?

- khafra 16y agoI'm saying "lift is just Newton's third law" is approximately as descriptive as "the mind is just the interaction of weighted electrochemical links between neurons." The word "just" covers a lot of detail that can make the short explanation less satisfying--especially if you're trying to use it to build something.
