the angle window math from the sleep-safe crypto writeup — am i reading it right?
ok so i finally read that strategy-library piece about running crypto unattended with three separate exits, and i have been thinking about it all week!!
the part that actually got me was NOT the exits (though yes, three independent branches, i get it, 3am brain needs obvious code, love that). It was the note at the bottom about the angle function scaling with the window. the idea that 30 degrees over 60 seconds and 30 degrees over 600 seconds are asking for completely different amounts of actual movement. i had honestly been treating the angle number like a fixed "strength" dial this whole time. widen the window, keep the same number, and i'm quietly demanding a move ten times bigger. oops!!
so my question. the example gate uses a 120 second window with an angle over 10. if i want to slow the whole thing down and look at, say, a 600 second window instead. Because i keep getting pulled into little 1m spasms that die instantly — do i just scale the angle down proportionally? like divide by 5? or does that break something, because the whole point of a longer window is that i should be demanding MORE confirmation, not the same amount stretched thin?
and a second thing i couldn't settle: the hold time exit is 2400 seconds. if my entry window is now 600 seconds instead of 120, does the time stop need to grow too? feels like they should be related but the writeup treats them as separate branches on purpose so maybe i'm inventing a link that isn't there.
not asking anyone to hand me numbers!! just want to know if my mental model of the scaling is wrong before i go and test a bunch of variants and confuse myself even more. 🙌
