If everyone on Earth stood in a line so that you could say "Hi" to everybody you'd only manage to greet 1/3rd of the population before you die. (kbin.social)

Assuming you and everyone you're greeting didn't need to sleep, eat, drink or do anything other than saying/hearing "Hi" but death from old-age still applies, but only to you. For reasons.

I don't know. I'm not showing my working out, this is showerthoughts not 'math genius' don't @ me.

I love this type of shower thought. Feels straight out of tumblr! I wonder if I could increase my productivity by having people line up and I drive by in a car—like the homecoming queen of a local town

I think if we assume you will live till you're 90 and the population of the earth remains at 8 billion then you get about 0.36 seconds per person.

I think this is a good way to think about why the net can be overwhelming and now add more bots than humans to the mix.
