Kyūdō (stationary archer and stationary target) may be good, but Yabusame (archer in motion) is even better.

[The sixth patriarch happened to be passing by. He commented: "Neither the archer nor the target is in motion; mind is in motion".]
Dx: There are more things in Heaven and Earth than allow a small (speak not of the 10'000 things) finite presentation: ignoramus et ignoramibus (as our light-cone expands we always encounter new information on its boundary)
Rx: Sheaves allow one to synthesise globalitites by coordinating handfuls of localities.
Px: The hacker will move amongst essential entropy as a fish (whale?) swims in the sea.

- vinnyvichy 2y agoBy golly I did it again! Ok. That prompted me to look for spectral evidence :) >specimens of compound bows with bone backing in Serovo graves https://www.jstor.org/stable/276490 https://www.jstor.org/stable/276490 Might be pushing the definition?
- 082349872349872 2y agoSorry, I only have access to the preview. I find it plausible, though, that compound bows might've been invented in the neolithic (assuming one already has the adhesive technology to haft spear points), but never became popular until the bronze-age development of horseback riding because until then having a smaller bow (that was both heavier and took over 5x as long to make) was little advantage for a lot of disadvantage.

Serovo is just before 5000 YBP (3000 BC), and locally late neolithic, but that's because Siberia has no chalcolithic, so neolithic gets directly succeeded by the bronze age. Given the uncertainty of dating back then (some people believe riding had already been invented, others that it would not be for some time after), I'm happy to consider those as possible or even likely compound bows. Sorry for leading us in circles with the pedantry!
- vinnyvichy 2y agoNo prob, that led to my exploration of whether horses might have been used in the area around that time. Maybe you want to be a bit more killer to improve communication? As for the chipping stuff, I'm quite certain (despite your PhD????) gaussian noise has been assumed somewhere, so right now I'm searching around for serious attempts (not just proposals) to try to use, say, squeezing, to get below the shannon(-hartley?) limit. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squeezed_coherent_state#Applications https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squeezed_coherent_state#Applic... I had the choice of starting with Geroch or Bamberg+Sternberg and I went with the cleaner notation and crappier words, might not have been prudent. Okay maybe you weren't as familiar with french academic activism as fencing (although maybe you might still ask your local experts about recent rule changes with respect to say Korean dominance in sabre -- curious about what is it that the Koreans know that is so unteachable, plus, people getting upset might be a good sign) Point was, if Murderous Saint Ted was raised a physicist, he might have found socially acceptable ways to get his messaging out ( I don't know, preaching to pliant students?) buuuuut I would think that's still suboptimal.
