- killjoywashere 2y agoThis voice sounds like something that Mark Farina should be dubbing into his next album. But it's the first time I've heard this bit. Where did it come from? Is this a classic in engineering circles of some shit Rockwell actually sold to the military?
- rcxdude 2y agoIt's from an old air force training video. Best guess I'be heard it that it's an unsuccessful attempt to explain Kalman filters (or something similar) in layman's terms. It's definitely floated around for a while, but it grew in popularity in the past few years.

- exe34 2y agothis only works if the retroencabulator is properly calibrated.
- m4rtink 2y agoBy this point I automatically even read it by that voice. :P
- scottshambaugh 2y ago> whichever is greater This always stuck out in an otherwise excellent bit, because you should definitely _not_ be taking the absolute value of your control error.
