Look at this happy cat! That’s #Einstein the #Stadtkater of #Darmstadt with his very own catnip pillow we got for him when we went to replace the ones he DESTROYED after STEALING them from our kitties!
That’s how we treat our furry overlords, even when they’re criminals.
🐾 #Einstein the #Stadtkater of #Darmstadt, weirdo fluff-ball, thinks his back needs washing, while his feet are so dirty that he leaves paw prints on the windowsills even in dry weather.
My brother shares my full genome.
He takes a trip and comes back home
Still young, though I am old and gray.
“Well, that makes sense,” I start to say,
“Due to the constant speed of light
Your clock moved slower in my sight.”
“How strange,” he says, “for I saw you,
And from my viewpoint, yours did too.”
wenn katzen laut schnurren, wird die gravitation örtlich abgeschwächt, weswegen sie sich instinktiv festkrallen, um nicht wegzufliegen.
ein solches system wird heute inertialsystem - von lat. inertia, bequemlichkeit, trägheit - genannt.
schon vor tausenden jahren machte man sich inertialsysteme zu nutze, in dem man katzen auf sehr bequemen teppichen zum schnurren brachte.
ein ungelöstes problem ist allerdings die zeitdilatation am rande des teppichs, weswegen fliegende teppiche schon vor jahren aus der mode gekommen und in dann vergessenheit geraten sind.
erst #einstein traute sich daran das problem systematisch zu durchdenken und schuf so erst die spezielle und später die allgemeine relativitätstheorie, die eine ganz neue #physik erschloss.
leider ist das ursprüngliche problem immer noch ungelöst und von außen betrachtet steht für solcherart reisende die zeit nach wie vor scheinbar still.
Who will be the first to create a board game with this new shape/tile?
“A new shape called an einstein has taken the math world by storm. The craggy, hat-shaped tile can cover an infinite plane with patterns that never repeat.”
Better question still: what will be the best (sort of) game with this new shape/tile?
Marla had been a gifted child. She graduated at age 13, got her master's degree at 15 and wrote an already groundbreaking piece as her PhD Thesis when she was 20. That was in the year 2089. ...
A little illustration showing my take on einstein's quote. What we know we dont know is simply a small, ever growing line between what we know and what we don't know we know...,
