Rice is great if you're really hungry and want to eat two thousand of something.

The only reason it's fed the millions in China is because there is so much of it.

Molecules are great for when I'm snackish and want to eat 6.02 x 10^23^ of something.

No. the dotted "i" with otherwise majuscule font is subpar for the undead...

Source: I made it the fuck up. Or I'm a vampire. Which one? Who knows...

Based on the cool cursive font that your username is in, I'm thinking the latter. That just seems like something a goth vampire would do

Source: I have no idea what I'm talking about

Pretty good guess actually.

I don’t get it.

Not hard to do if you weigh groups of the rice and take an average weight/grain then divide the total weight by that. Bro forgot to add his uncertainty tho 💀

The total weight would decrease as some of the water evaporated but you might be able to account for that

Bro forgot to add his uncertainty tho

HIS uncertainty? Your method results in uncertainty. This guy counted each piece individually, as one should.

Sometimes we make sacrifices for the sake of efficiency

With weighing you have a confidence interval, when counting each grain of rice you know.

What if I could give you two brick and two wood for it though? Could build two bridges with that

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

so you have 7 of Man Utd's playmaker and 4639 of Arsenal's holding midfielder?

Best of luck to you getting anyone with this joke on this website.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Do they have a player named shrimp? Rice is a more common surname.

I don't follow the footy but I understood that it was ironic in some way!
