I don’t understand how we got from panel two to panel three. If he got the nail halfway in halfway between the panels, then the nail would be half of that distance at the quarters between the panels, and then it’d go half way more at seven eighths, and the distance would always halve and he’d never finish putting the nail in, so we could never move on to panel three.
Turns out through calculus we discovered that infinite sums can have finite answers
But how did that happen? At some point we were halfway to that solution, and then halfway from that one, etc.
Ship of zeno’s paradox? 😆
Plank length disagrees
But how do we even get down to that length? At some point we were halfway to that length, and then halfway to it again, etc.
edit: or are you making a joke making me walk the plank
Only kind of joking. At some point you are at two planck. Then you go half way and you’re at one. Then you are physically forbidden by the universe to move any smaller distance than one additional Planck length. You can’t do half. There is no smaller distance to travel. You can either move one or zero. If you move half, the universe rounds up and you move one.
Edit: sorry, My voice to text doesn’t respect Mr Planck’s name 😀
Sounds like you could still get stuck between 2 and 1 instead of between 1 and 0.
I’m pretty sure the ship’s planks had to be replaced because it was on display as a heritage item for generations afterwards - not during his lifetime. Are you really viewing theseus’ ship if everything you’re looking at post-dates his death, was the issue, iirc.
Just to get unneccesarily pedantic about a joke.
I used to watch that restoration show on History channel I think about Theseus’ ship…
Have you done one shit in your lifetime that’s just being replaced - or have you done multiple shits?
Answer that and you’ve got your answer. … it’s the Shit of Theseus.
I don’t get why you ate being down voted.
A shit is defined as being on the toilet for number 2.
Once you leave the toilet, the shit is over and you need to start an other shit.
Which would mean that if you didn’t get everything out the first time, you can get a single turd that is spread over multiple shits.
“shit session”
