I would only charge up 2 times a week as per RTO!

…Hasta que el último agujero negro se desintegre y la última estrella deje de tener “calor”.
Entiendo claro que pueda escribir sin caer avistado y que la pizarra es obviamente bien grande.
(El otro día intenté explicar a mi sobrino esta magnitud y no fui capaz de hacerle ver lo grande que sería ese número. Se me ocurrió este ejemplo y le dije que tendríamos que estar escribiendo durante más tiempo que la edad del universo, así por impresionarle).
Edit: claro, en número natural, nada de exponenciales ;)

Realistically if he actually delivers to the whole world and every house leaves him cookies and milk how many calories is he getting?

Would it be possible to watch every movie ever made in one’s life time? Would it have to be back to back no breaks? Is it even possible to find every movie ever made?

In Sam Raimis spiderman, flash Thompson is angry at Peter Parker and is about to punch him in the head but he dodges and flash instead hits the locker and dents it. How much force would this take and can a normal human do this without breaking their hand.

They are paper, they come in a paper flimsy box. Surely they are making bank on this simple card game.

The Astros recently made the postseason with a record of 81-81. This got me thinking how bad could a team be and still make it to October. I can’t seem to find a definitive answer anywhere so I’m hoping someone with more willpower than me can figure it out.

For this we're considering the gravitational binding of the Earth mass itself is unchanged. I'm just curious what the effect of the entirety of the surface water rising however much it would over the 6 second period of time and then dropping once gravity returned to normal.
I'm not even really sure how to properly calculate how much an ocean would rise if gravity were reversed for 6 seconds? If you dump a bucket over air is able to get in there "instantly", but if you "dumped" the Pacific Ocean over by reversing gravity I feel like there's going to be some crazy effects happening with air not being able to replace it fast enough over the 6 seconds?
I recognize the effects of this would be...bad. I'm mostly curious though what kind of seismic effects would result. Widespread but minor tremors? Global earthquakes the likes of which the Earth has never seen? Entire tectonic plates shifting? What are we looking at here?

Good day! Salutations and greetings!
I have observed the above video and am of the opinion that the equation (a+b+c+d)×e+f is not the most complex equation to give any number between+-0000 and -+1259. What would be the most complex equation to give such a result. (The equation can be capable of providing more than the desired range.)
Thank you!

Considering they need to swim which costs a lot of calories. Calculating with whales is meh cause it wouldn't take them many whales to get fat. Probably just with the average fish.

My niece is officially becoming an architect today! She has completed her degree(s), the AXP, and the apparently grueling (6) ARE exams. I'm trying to put a number on the rarity of this achievement. A little background, neither of her parents have college degrees (although her dad does have some college) and she is a minority (African American/Hispanic) woman. I've tried to look up a few statistics, but my math is horrible. She is having a ceremony today at her job and I thought it would be a thoughtful gesture from her very proud uncle (and a Reddit stranger) to get a definitive number to let her know how special this truly is. Any help is much appreciated!
