 | | Balancing Bots
|
| I'm working on a 'bot that will balance itself, and having pretty good success (it will keep itself up for 30 seconds or so on a good run, traveling around a bit, before it falls over). But I'd like to make it more stable, if possible, so that I (...) (25 years ago, 4-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics)

| (...) Whoo hoo! One fo my very favorite debates has reared up again! And it's only been a week or so! You really can't tell people not to be "obscene", "vulgar" "profane" or "indecent" and expect them to follow those instructions exactly unless they (...) (25 years ago, 4-Jan-00, to lugnet.general)
