I just watched this so i have to post here https://youtu.be/0EytSWiKrFg
I thought the half full, half empty thing. Was about the flow of water. If you’re emptying the glass, at some point the glass will be half empty. If you fill the glass, at one point the glass will be half full.
Ah, it’s this time of the year again.
(version 3)
Does this work?
If you looped it or created a doubly linked list what would happen?
This particular version wouldn’t work because the exit point is not lower than the entry point so after a possible initial splash from the first glass the outside air would rush in from the top of the straw and thus push down the water to its own level again…
So sadly no singly linked lists without stairs!
That makes sense
I knew there had to be a catch
Either perpetual motion, or a very wet desk, no in-between
Turns out it was FOOF.
It’s not ‘is the glass half full or half empty’.
The question is ‘why is the glass?’
Once you know this, the first question is easy to answer.
My mother in-law is a lab scientist. She says this is accurate.
You don’t even know the half of it
I think they do know half of it.
That beaker does not look half full to me. Many like 1/3rd full, or at least somewhere between that and half full.
The pedant
Opportunistic Lab Intern:
“While you’re all debating if it’s half full or half empty I drank it. Now it’s empty.”
Topologist: that is a plate
Realist: Guys, I think this is piss.
I keep piss bottles in my solvent cabinet
Engineer: the glass is twice as big as in needs to be.
Ahh found that label!:
99.985% Pure.
Nitrogen (N₂): 39%
Oxygen (O₂): 10.5%
Argon (Ar): 0.465%
Carbon dioxide (CO₂): 0.02%
Water (H₂O): 50%
Engineer: the glass is underutilized
Management: Lets hire a consultant to investigate the value proposition of downsizing glasses and discuss the results over a company expensed dinner.
