White & Nerdy
New video from Wierd Al Yankovik. I actually saw him in concert when I lived in Tucson. The irony is that almost 50% of this stuff is true about me. Now you know. A free cookie to the first person who can identify the equation on the whiteboard behind where they are dancing. |

50%? So that would mean that you are not nerdy? Or not white?
100% white and nerdy.
Hmmm... still trying to figure out which 50%...
Wizard at minesweeper, Star Wars, and Calculus for fun-- or statistics-- definitely you, but I don't think your that nerdy
I meant you're not your
Okay-- talk about nerdy, I've been searching the internet for that stupid equation for the past hour. Can't find it-- what's the category-- physics,statistics--
That was so funny! I was LOL the whole time I was watching it because it was so ALEX!
You are 100 percent white, of course, and more than 50 percent nerdy, though NOT 100 percent.
Good to see you have a sense of humor about your "nerdiness."
I think I will watch it again. . .
Yeah, you need to watch it a few times, lot of subtle humor in there.
As far as a hint on the equation, it is from physics. I can't believe nobody has guessed it yet, geez so obvious, lol.
It's probably not, but it looks a lot the the Shrodinger non-relativistic wave equation.
So, will you let the cat out of the box-- if it's still alive.
* Ding Ding Ding *Schrodinger equation it is! Free cookie for you. Do you prefer chocolate chip or peanut butter?
How about peanut butter chocolate chip? What really threw me off was that differential covariance symbol-- I'm not too familiar with it-- you know I kept thinking what's with the upside down Delta--then I kept thinking is was right side up-- upside down, right side up-- you know I'm terrible with directions
I must make a correction I meant the covariant differential-- covariance What was I thinking?!
The upside down triangle in calculus is called the gradient or direction of steepest descent. A gradient squared is called the "Laplacian." Haven't verified it but by the looks of it was the Schrodinger equation for the hydrogen atom. This satifies the equation H|probability wave>=E|probability wave> with H being the Hamiltonian and E the energy (kinetic and potential) and the notation |something> being a multidimentional state of the closed system. This can be refered back to my Rosslyn Castle post of the "Chandli" patterns which are simply 2D solutions (modes) of the very same physic's Shrodinger equation, or simply an eigenvalue problem in mathematics. Have a nice day.
