The Veritasium video is the best one I've seen but he only describes how counter steering works at slow speeds which is more like how you balance a stationary bike. The faster you go, and the bigger the wheel, the more the counter stee

Well, you can debunk that debunking easily enough if you have a bike. Stand in front of the bike and lift up the front wheel, holding one fork in each hand. Attempt to turn the front wheel from side to side without the seat changing positio

No, it doesn't make an argument for that. It's no different from inverting your mouse wheel scroll direction. If you're used to doing it one way you have to get used to doing it another way.

You can measure it for yourself: balance on the bike when it is stationary, then compare the experience to when you're moving. When you are moving, it adds in the gyroscopic balancing effect. Gyroscopic motion means that the force appl

I did some work about a year ago modifying Trellinator to support WeKan, and would like to do the same here. When I did that I made a comprehensive list of things that were missing from the WeKan API to provide a fully functional drop-in re

In a world without an increasing population (which will happen in ~2050) and indeed in a world where many countries area already in population decline, it is labour that is the scarce resource. Once the population isn't growing, the on
