Re: Eternal Struggle
#102The cool thing about this is that it's self-balancing - if either side gets larger than the other due to random chance, the ball in that side will have more space to bounce in, and therefore bounce less often, slowing its growth. Meanwhile, the ball in the smaller side will bounce more often in its smaller space, making up the ground.
It's amazing how stable it is. It's been running in a background tab for a hour now, and it still has the yin/yang look.

Very on brand, it does not work correctly. I can turn the speed up but not back down again.

#105The most self evident piece of work/art I have ever seen and yet there's so many comments explaining why it works and how it's interesting...

It looks like it converges to a normal distribution curve with white being the area under the curve.

Not to alarm anyone, but when I ran this, the black ball eventually joined the dark side and the whole thing ended up black. I’m sure this doesn’t mean anything for the greater universe.
A little matter-antimatter asymmetry never hurt anyone

This happened to me in the original site. I think it happens when the white and black balls collide at the exact same spot of the border.

Now to be honest I saw this bug, but I decided to just release it anyways because I also already had the v2 in the works which incidentally already had this issue fixed.
