fractal problem

frac·tal prob·lem

/ˈfraktəl ˈpräbləm/

a problem that―when you try to solve it―you just keep encountering more and more problems

I was fixing my rusted brake line and it turned out to be a fractal problem with having to then fix leaks and still having fixing to do

Fractally evil

Someone who's seen as evil, no matter if you zoom in to every conceivable resolution to their worldviews, beliefs' or morals down to the level of quarks, bosons and beyond Planck level, they would be considered as evil.
It could be used as an insult against people who identifies as a "MAP" or "MAPsexual," or pedophiles like EDP445, Apollo Quiboloy and e.t.c.

Examples of fractally evil people:
- People who identify as MAP or MAPsexual
- People who are charge of child sexual abuse
- People who has a history of atrocities not limited to genocide, war crimes, deportation and ethnic cleansing (e.g. Adolf Hitler)
- People who started a world war
- Animal Abusers
- Ragebaiters, or post-trolls that does the most unhinged shit, to the point they are praising Nazis or Fascists willingly.
- Nazis and Neo-Nazis
- Confederates and Ku Klux Klan
- Any Cult Leader like Apollo Quiboloy
- Foodistzen
- Bella The Wolf
- UTTP

Fractal

a curve or geometric figure, each part of which has the same statistical character as the whole. Fractals are useful in modeling structures (such as eroded coastlines or snowflakes) in which similar patterns recur at progressively smaller scales, and in describing partly random or chaotic phenomena such as crystal growth, fluid turbulence, and galaxy formation.

OR

They mathly required to determine how many datable men there are in a largely undatable population

Fractal

An ITERATED FUNCTION SYSTEM (IFS) is a set of CONTRACTIONS, which are ways of scaling the plane by the same amount in every VECTOR BASIS. An ATTRACTOR is the set S (a shape) for which the union of the images of S under the application of all contractions in the given IFS is equivalent to S. A self-similar fractal is then the unique ATTRACTOR of an ITERATED FUNCTION SYSTEM (IFS).

The Sierpinski Triangle is a fractal. And the rest of these definitions are fractally awful.

fuck up fractal

Fractal of fuckup that permeates everything from nano to mega.

Everything I see is fucked up coworker It's the damn fuck up fractal again!

Fractal Engineering

The discipline of designing structures, systems, and algorithms that are intentionally fractal to optimize properties like surface area, fault tolerance, bandwidth, or mechanical strength. Fractal Engineering moves beyond analysis (measuring fractal dimension) to synthesis (building fractal forms). It includes designing hierarchical ventilation systems for buildings, fractal flow distributors for chemical reactors, self-similar power grids for resilience, and recursive cooling channels for fusion reactors. It's manufacturing nature's favorite geometry.

Fractal Engineering Example: A fractal fluid mixer engineered for a pharmaceutical reactor isn't a simple pipe; it's a tree-like cascade of branching channels, each bifurcation splitting flow to maintain constant velocity and mixing efficiency across scales. The engineer didn't just copy a lung; they computed the optimal fractal dimension and branching ratio for the fluid's viscosity and flow rate. This is Fractal Engineering: building systems that breathe like lungs, branch like trees, and perfuse like capillaries, because evolution perfected those designs over eons.

Fractal Technologies

Practical devices, algorithms, and systems that exploit fractal geometry to achieve superior performance in sensing, imaging, communication, and computation. Fractal antennas are compact and multiband because their self-similar shape resonates at multiple frequencies. Fractal image compression algorithms achieve high ratios by exploiting self-similarity within natural images. Fractal heat sinks maximize surface area within a constrained volume. These technologies don't just use fractals as decoration; they harness their mathematical properties for function.

Fractal Technologies *Example: A fractal antenna etched onto a mobile phone circuit board looks nothing like a classic dipole. Its Koch snowflake or Sierpinski gasket shape repeats at smaller scales, allowing it to resonate efficiently at 4G, 5G, and WiFi frequencies simultaneously, all within a square centimeter. This isn't aesthetic; it's Fractal Technology—using self-similar geometry to solve the multi-band antenna problem that confounds Euclidean designs.*
