    Pi

    in Poll of the Day

    Posted

    Am I a complete nerd whose first attempt at developing a memory palace was to memorize the first 200 digits of pi? Maybe. I definitely don't remember 200 but probably somewhere around 50.

    Locked out

    in Poll of the Day

    Posted

    By the time I moved out of my childhood home, I had lost the habit of carrying house keys around, since our door could be unlocked with a keypad. So naturally, when I moved out I quickly found myself locked out of my apartment. I had left the house without my keys, and my bf left later and locked up to go to work (he worked evenings back then). I got home and realized I was locked out. I had to go back downtown to my bf's office to get his keys. Haven't forgotten my keys once since then.

    Rubik’s cubes

    In elementary school, we had a mandatory 30-minute reading period every day after lunch. I wasn't as much of a reader back then as I am now, but my 5th grade teacher made an exception to the reading rule for students who wanted to play with a Rubik's cube instead. So it was during that year that my best friend and I learned how to solve it. He caught on much more quickly than I did and halfway through the year was already solving it in under a minute. I never managed to reach his speed and haven't really touched a Rubik's cube in years, but I think I could probably still solve one in under 90 seconds. My record is 37 seconds but I have no trouble admitting I got very lucky with that lol

    Of Traders

    Traders just take advantage of arbitrage opportunities and I don't see anything inherently wrong with it, so I believe their impact on the game is mostly neutral. That said, some of them manipulate the market to keep prices artificially high when they've stockpiled a lot of a specific resource and while that benefits the handful of other players who are also selling that resource, it hurts the masses who are trying to purchase it. Case in point: certain traders are currently inflating the price of lead by making buy offers several hundred ppu higher than the other buy offers on the market, just to keep the prices high while they sit on stockpiles they wish to liquidate. In that particular type of situation, it hurts most of the game while only benefiting a handful of traders.
