  • If the earth stopped rotating, days would be about 365x longer.

    I wanted to figure out a more exact answer, but I'm hung up on the fact that the length of a day is influenced by rotation and revolution together.

    I have a feeling this requires calculus. If Sir Isaac Newton were here, I think he'd know what to do.

  • Maybe the procedure would fix whatever's wrong with their brains. Like, maybe Trump would slowly regain the ability to form complete sentences. I'm imagining a Flowers for Algernon situation where he wakes up one day, reads his own Wikipedia page, and is briefly ashamed before the non-neural parts of his body crap out.

  • It's not a failure of the web, it's a failure of corporations to accept their place as just a tab in my browser. It's also easier to track users, exploit vulnerabilities, etc. from within a mobile app.

  • That's neat, I'd never heard of it before!

    It is an open question whether an Angel of some power k can escape forever.

    Looks like you're quoting the Proceedings of 11th Annual International Conference on Computing and Combinatorics from 2005: https://dl.acm.org/doi/abs/10.5555/2958119.2958180

    Apparently, it was solved (twice!) the next year.

    In late 2006, the original problem was solved when independent proofs appeared, showing that an angel can win. Bowditch proved that a 4-angel (that is, an angel with power k = 4) can win[2] and Máthé[3] and Kloster[4] gave proofs that a 2-angel can win.

  • 💡If we simply make it illegal to... not have children? No, that's not right. Not want to have children? No, impossible to enforce. Ah, it must be illegal to profess the lack of desire to have children. What a beautiful and simple law that will certainly address the root cause of falling birth rates.
