  • The problem is that Newtons theory of relativity states that when things approach the speed of light they slow down, your eyes use light to see so if you look at the pot it nears the speed of light, that being the light emited from your eyes of course. fun fact this is also how super man shoots Lazer beams.


  • I mean technically there isn’t a finite number of atoms because there isn’t a finite number of anything because everything is part of the same energy field with varied energy states caught in self reinforcing patterns and when you “split” an atom you simply break the pattern allowing rapid entropy to a stable state.

    Tldr: the solution to this paradox is that it is impossible to split anything in half, you can only rearrange it.












  • Yes and no, it was always technically possible to drive thirty minutes a way go to a library, find a book that hopefully has what you want in it, drive back read it over a weekend, drive back to the library drop off the book, return and waist ~3hrs of your life to Learn a factoid but the barrier to entry was much higher and esoteric knowledge was simply unobtainable unless you went to university. Radio and TV both helped tremendously but you were more subject to the opinions of the studio and politicians than you are now and you would still have to wait and hope something was relevant to the thing you don’t understand, and even then most entertainment was not educational.
