Analog or Digital?

st.cronin · 03-14-2007, 09:14 AM

The most important question ever asked. Defend your choice.

I chose digital, but it's analog for clocks.

Raiders Army · 03-14-2007, 09:33 AM

digital

I prefer my women analog, but usually end up with digital.

Toddzilla · 03-14-2007, 10:20 AM

I don't know, I've never attempted analog manipulation

Digital FTW. Internet radio at work is the best invention EVAR.

Analog penetration doesn't get you to third base.

st.cronin · 03-14-2007, 01:34 PM

10 people so far don't think the world should be/is infinitely divisible.

Analog's great... if you like crap.

Analog for anything not related to computers, which would choke on it.

dawgfan · 03-14-2007, 03:25 PM

Digital provides far more flexibility, and as computing power and technology continue to advance, the difference in quality between the two will keep receding towards zero.

st.cronin · 03-14-2007, 03:27 PM

People, this is not a question of mere technology. This is The Metaphysical Question. Is the world analog or digital?

CU Tiger · 03-14-2007, 07:20 PM

Unfortunately there IS much grey. Black and White only go so far.

Emiliano · 03-14-2007, 07:34 PM

Digital.

I believe the world is a series of electric charges on a piece of magnetic tape.

Airhog · 03-15-2007, 06:50 AM

The world is analog. Analog is infinite. Digital is not

Analog is infinitely divisible - slight difference. To say the world is analog means that atomic theory is an incomplete account.

path12 · 03-15-2007, 12:22 PM

Wouldn't quantum mechanics be digital? I don't know what chaos theory would be though.

Mr. Wednesday · 03-15-2007, 12:31 PM

I chose analog and clicked "vote" a moment before I remembered that quantum mechanics means the world is digital.

Not really, quantum mechanics is all about waves - a very analog thing.
Standing waves can only have a whole number of nodes, so you could make a case for integers.

Icy · 03-15-2007, 01:23 PM

Digital unless we are talking about a guitar amplifier, "all tube" rocks for guitar amps.

st.cronin · 03-15-2007, 09:32 PM

Quantum mechanics seems to me where the digital and the analog actually blur.

JeeberD · 03-15-2007, 09:40 PM

I was thinking more particles than waves but as an English major with just a lay interest in physics I suspect I'm well over my head here.....
