Root Admin AdvancedSetup Posted December 8, 2022 Root Admin ID:1544838 Share Posted December 8, 2022 555 Timer IC - Déjà vu The number 555 always brings up the 555 timer IC from when I was back getting my electronics degree. I posted an off-topic to another post but then I have recently run into a few other items where I've noticed over the past week where the number 555 was in it. aka Frequency illusion Frequency illusion, also known as the Baader–Meinhof phenomenon or frequency bias, is a cognitive bias in which, after noticing something for the first time, there is a tendency to notice it more often, leading someone to believe that it has an increased frequency of occurrence. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nukecad Posted December 9, 2022 ID:1544930 Share Posted December 9, 2022 LOL, it's an 'Angel' number (If you believe that C***). https://www.alittlesparkofjoy.com/angel-number-555/ I've soldered a few (few hundred?) 555 timers in my earlier days.

digmorcrusher Posted December 9, 2022 ID:1544938 Share Posted December 9, 2022 Well if you use those numbers and win the lottery just remember it was my post that started this.😉 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Root Admin AdvancedSetup Posted December 16, 2022 Author Root Admin ID:1545867 Share Posted December 16, 2022 I would almost say that is in search of patterns. Finding numbers within patterns is a tad different, though similar I suppose. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Root Admin AdvancedSetup Posted June 10, 2023 Author Root Admin ID:1571737 Share Posted June 10, 2023 Interesting indeed, but I don't believe it leads to anything or means anything more than a curious thing in life Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewTricks Posted June 12, 2023 ID:1572006 Share Posted June 12, 2023 My son in law has a whole book on this subject and was eager to show me his numbers. I've been struck by a new phenomenon lately, that of Synchronicity. This has been true particularly between my daughter and myself for 40 years. Less so with others, maybe once or twice a year. So imagine my surprise when the root admin posted retro song(s) by a classic artist, the exact same song(s) I'd been listening to for 3 days straight.

Root Admin AdvancedSetup Posted June 12, 2023 Author Root Admin ID:1572041 Share Posted June 12, 2023 Well, at this point I'm probably going to bail on this topic. Was meant for a fun whimsical post, but please carry on if others do wish to get into the psychology behind all of this. I've read so much on the subject of psychology I'm burned out with it at this point. Cheers 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewTricks Posted June 15, 2023 ID:1572621 Share Posted June 15, 2023 @nukecad just went back into this to check out the link & recognized a trend I'd seen before. Those "spiritual" perspectives seem to follow trends which change every 5 years. @AdvancedSetup you know that I'm attuned to biases of all kinds, and this one has run it's course. Not that I don't believe it, the wholehearted focus (in my life) has dimmed. I always like the academic reference with source attribution. The key point now is awareness because it brings responsibility for personal behavior into view. @Excession sometimes I get thoughtless and post things impulsively. I'll leave my daughter out of this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
