A double pendulum demonstrates chaos theory, tracing its unpredictable path The dependence on initial conditions, and sensitivity to variation is one of the fundamental properties of chaos This is commonly referred to as "the butterfly effect,"

There truly is an underlying order in every chaotic system In this scene, we have 2500 identical triple pendulums on a grid with almost the same initial conditions.

In 1890, Henri Poincaré proved the non-existence of the uniform first integral of the three-body problem and the sensitive dependence to initial conditions of its trajectories. Yet, stable solutions to it do exist and this is one of them.

Chaos and the double pendulum: the configuration space of the double pendulum is a torus (a circle for each angle coordinate) so we can plot the evolution of such a pendulum in two ways: either as a "real pendulum" in physical space, or as a point in configuration space :)

This cult is extremely dangerous, crosses all limits.😬 A newborn’s immune system is extremely weak, Yet this man is putting tongue in the baby’s mouth, Which can be deadly for the child by transferring harmful bacteria or viruses. Such actions are extremely dangerous.😬😐

Even Chinese people don't know how China implements laws, but Indian influencers like to fantasize about it. With zero research, they also criticize India. What's worse is they won't even spare extremely sensitive issues that affect many innocent lives.
