*snugs* Hi, and welcome - glad to see you here. ^_^ With regard to contacting Grin, the easiest way to do so is probably to write something his talk page, User talk:Grin. -- schnee

Hiya Schnee ^^ Yes, I was about to leave him a comment, the silly thing never entered his e-mail address -- Ralesk

Hello Ralesk, welcome to Wikipedia. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian. You can learn more on the how to edit page. The naming conventions and manual of style pages are also useful. Feel free to experiment at the Wikipedia:Sandbox. If you have any questions about the project then check out Wikipedia:Help or add a question to the Village pump. Angela

Thank you, Angela. I'll try ^_~ -- Ralesk

Hi Ralesk. Check m:user:grin, hu:Kezdolap :-) --grin 22:11 8 Jul 2003 (UTC)

Squee! -- Ralesk

Thanks for telling me. I was relying on the ZRCE language guesser which told me it was Hungarian. I shall try and find someone at cs: to help. Angela 01:10, Oct 12, 2003 (UTC)


Hi Ralesk. I think I know you from LiveJournal, I'm njyoder. I'm the one who asked some questions about restoration and I think you replied in my journal in an abortion pride post. I came across you when looking for a list of obscure fetishes. I saw the foreskin fetish one and went into look at the dicussion and to my surprise I saw you there. I had added a comment to say that fetishes like that should be under an entry called "cultural fetishes."

Not to my surprise the rabid pro-circ zealot Robert was there. I might have contributed to some circumcision articles, but I decided I don't really care enough to get involved in silly edit wars with an psychotic zealot. Seriously, doesn't he have something better to do than pervert Wikipedia articles?

Oh yeah, I just read the edits to foreskin fetish by robert. It's astounding what he considers to be NPOV, I'm surprised he wasn't perm banned the first time an RFC for him came up. He doesn't even want to acknowledge that this isn't actually a fetish where it's common place. Nathan J. Yoder 07:43, 2 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Oh, it’s you! I knew your name sounded familiar :D -- Ralesk 11:47, 2 Nov 2004 (UTC)

palatalization

edit
  1. Palatalisation: the way Hungarian palatalised consonants work is very different from how it does in Slavic languages. In fact it’s the first sign of someone being Hungarian if you’re listening to someone speaking Russian or Polish. Furthermore, Slavic languages palatalise consonants as they meet “iotised” vowels (or modern successors of what have been called that in Old Slavic), whereas in Hungarian it happens only on an explicite j (and again, the resulting sound it miles apart). What do you mean by English having a similar feature? Oh, and our palatalised consonants exist on their own, unlike Slavic ть and нь
Ralesk, you write about Hungarian. However, Slawic have the same softening of consonants, as Hungarian (n-ny, t-ty,...). As far as I know, Finnish completely misses this kind of softening. So what do you mean here? Please give examples.
I speak about palatalisation that does not work anywhere like Slavic palatalisation. It doesn’t sound like it, either. ty is nothing like ть and ny is nothing like нь. Also, ty and ny and gy exist on their own as sounds, whereas the ones you believe to be equivalents of these in Slavic languages do not in most of the cases. They only come along in certain (albeit not rare) circumstances, such as being followed by an iotised vowel. -- R.
The other thing is: You speak about Hungarian only. What about palatalization in Finnish, Estonian and the other uralic languages? Can you give to palatalization there examples, especially what is different from other languages in palatalization? Antifinnugor 07:13, 25 Dec 2004 (UTC)
I just listened to some Livonian (Lív) text and it seems to have a compact ty sound (as opposed to the t-j of Slavic languages), and furthermore, while definitely sounding very much like Finnish and Estonian on the vowels, the doubled consonants feel very much like Hungarian. The doubled consonants we, the Finnish and the Livonians all seem to have seem not to exist in Germanic and Slavic languages. -- R.
http://homepage.mac.com/uldis/livonia/interrogatives.html is an interesting thing. -- R.

Man, didn't expect to find you here!

edit

Hope you have warm and fuzzy feelings about me! So, what kind of articles have you written?

Oh, the Chimp, impressive! Not many, here, I am more productive on the Hungarian Wikipedia, there written about Telecommunication, Telephone, DVD, Byte, and a bunch of other things. — Ralesk 06:00, 24 Jan 2005 (UTC) // P.S. Please sign your comments with ~~~~.

Re: Szilárd Leó

Thank you for your message and insight. That's probably why I have to switch to ISO-8859-1 encoding when I send out the email, UTF-8 usually doesn't have the right characters, and ends up obliterating some parts of my message. Would there be a big advantage to switching to UTF-8? If so, have you brought this up on WikiEN-l?

Yours, Frazzydee| 18:53, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Well, the point of UTF-8 and Unicode is that it is the currently widespread standard way to include all (or at least many) characters needed at the same time. The classic ISO and Windows character pages didn’t include many characters, as they were limited to 8‐bit, 256 characters. Unicode is a much bigger code table, most modern OS and browsers handle it well, and it makes it possible, among other things, to make proper article titles in Wikipedia. You can read about it in the respective articles.
I think we once brought it up on wikipedia-l, but it was shot down as useless and counterproductive for the English WP — counterproductive because of those <1% of users still using crappy browsers that are unable to handle UTF-8. Meanwhile, the Spanish are just as much a western‐characters‐only language as English, and they seem to be having an UTF-8 wikipedia without trouble.
I’m not active on the lists anymore, but if you wish, you could propose this yourself. The obvious benefits are the ability to make proper article names (see Györ, redirects with “inappropriate characters” can always be made), not having the trouble of seeing just a HTML entity instead of a character in the edit.

Hi,

Just wanted to let you know (if you don't know already) that the letters "ő" and "ű" are finally allowed in article titles :)

regards,

Alensha 28 June 2005 22:51 (UTC)

Wonderful, thank you! — Ralesk 29 June 2005 01:48 (UTC)


Policies in HuWiki

edit

Hi,

I just wanted to let you know that there is a vote and a corresponding debate going on in HuWiki. Actually, I think the discussion is more important than the vote.

Anyway, as someone familiar with the English Wikipedia, we would appreciate your input:

Thanks, nyenyec  29 June 2005 03:52 (UTC)

Kösz, hogy szóltál, elolvasgattam a három lapot meg a Utalk:G/I lapot is, majd meglátom, lesz‐e kedvem, ötletem, akármim segíteni :) — Ralesk 29 June 2005 16:00 (UTC)
Köszi, ahogy érzed. -- nyenyec  29 June 2005 17:10 (UTC)

Pole placement

edit

Yes, of course in most cases you must not place closed-loop poles on the disk frontier or with real part. This, for two reasons. Of course oscillationas are almost always not welcome. Second, you always need to take care of some robustness, as the model's parameters are never known exactly. Therefore if you're on the frontier, when you apply the controller syntesized for the "nominal model" (the one you used for the clculations) it could happen that the true control system is a bit unstable, or even baldy unstable.

Currently I'm working to a suspension system. The problem is it has two complex poles whose real part is really near to zero. I need a BIG gain in the feedback loop to reduce the complex part, but anyway their real part cannot be moved easily (the problem is that the thesis' objective is to use Model predictive control... I'm just noticing that MPC is NOT the right control system for this!!!!). So it can happen that, for some reasons, poles symply stable or really little stable must remain in that position. Anyway the system is not unstable, as they are the poles it had intrinsically.

Ciao!

See you soon.
