&ldquo;@[[User:Leaderboard|Leaderboard]], I forgot to mention...<br />Electrical engineering has always allowed for ''free energy circuits'' by renaming them: <u>unstable</u>. In other words, "energy IN does not equal energy OUT" defines an ''unstable circuit'' in which you can't predict the output based on the input, alone. ''This is in addition to an allowance for a shift in time due to the frequency component of the formulae for electrical reactance supersedes Conservation of Energy.''<ref>Each cycle of oscillation is keeping time for an electrical reactance to continue to occur. If this frequency should change of its own accord, then time has shifted within the domain of that reactance and Conservation is disqualified (under [[w:Conservation_of_energy#Noether's_theorem|Noether's Theorem]]).</ref> Thus, Conservation of Energy is not a law so much as it is a yardstick by which circuit topologies are measured to determine a circuit's type. If a circuit's output is unpridictable (based on its input, alone), then it is unstable since its output was not conserved within the boundaries imposed by its input. Type-casting is not disallowance; it is merely prejudice.
<br /><br />
&ldquo;Considering how unstable circuit simulators are (due to their consistent use of matrix algebra as a shortcut for calculating a circuit's outcome), simulating an unstable circuit within the context of an unstable simulator yields "matrix is singular" error messages more often than not. Only stable circuits yield predictable outcomes. Simulators find no fault with these types of circuits.
<br /><br />
&ldquo;Using an inherently unstable simulator to calculate a circuit's behavior is a predisposition (ie, prejudice) towards favoring stable circuits since only stable circuits will pass through this artificial, manmade act of filtration without coughing up and freezing in mid-stride. This is not due to some Law of Nature. It is due to flagrant social engineering. -- [[User:Vinyasi|Vinyasi]] ([[User talk:Vinyasi|discuss]] • [[Special:Contributions/Vinyasi|contribs]]) 03:15, 31 October 2022 (UTC)&rdquo;
