Z piatkového moto výletu do Budapešti ->

Preskočili sme k múzeum a o 2 bloky vedľa na Corvin setány (promenáde) trochu odľahčíme. Okrem "kávé és sütemény" (káva a koláčik 😋) vieme, že #Budapest je mesto, mesto sôch (spievať s Júliou Hečkovou na melódiu piesne Mesto snov 😜), kde pozrieme ďalšie dve sochy.

Prvou je Carlo Pedersoli, alias #BudSpencer 👊🏻 Nápis na soche je: "Nikdy sme sa nehádali." #TerenceHill.

Druhou je Gömböc 🪨. Kto nevie, odporúčam pozrieť na wiki heslo #gomboc.

Man! Buying a Gömböc is surprisingly expensive.

Here is the Gömböc I had machined for my brother as a birthday gift.

For centuries, mathematicians believed that any convex, homogeneous object must have at least three points of stable equilibrium. This principle seemed unshakable-until the #Gömböc defied expectations.

3D printed gömböc emerged today.

Model seems viable by the looks of these brief tests.

@andreas_jechow a related fascinating thing:
a #Gömböc is a body which uprights itself and has only a single stable point of equilibrium.
Nature evolved this shape too, e.g. in the shells of Turtles, which helps them to get back on their feet in case they're flipped:

@jens the corresponding geometric body with the same capabilities as a tortoise to never get really stuck on in its back is a #Gömböc:

Meilleur cadeau : un #gömböc ! Mieux qu'un culbuto, cet objet a une unique position d'équilibre stable et une unique position d'équilibre instable - qu'il quitte à la moindre perturbation. Mais en plus, il est homogène et convexe (deux points dans ou sur l'objet peuvent être reliés par une ligne droite qui reste à l'intérieur du gömböc).
Il tire son nom du hongrois "gömb" pour sphère, objet avec lequel il partage beaucoup de propriétés.
