Looking at the momentum built up by the cargo ship hitting the bridge in Baltimore.

The total weight of the ship+max cargo is 423.958 million pounds. The ship was traveling at 9.2 mph. That means the cargo ship’s momentum was 1,742,467,380 pounds•meters/second.

Just saw someone "doing the math" saying that Flathub having a million active users is low, actually, because if we assume there are 8 billion people in the world and half of them have a PC with Internet and Linux usage is 2% then Flathub only has 1.3% market share among Linux users!

Yes, dear Internet person, when you start with flawed assumptions, you end with flawed conclusions.

The height of a floor at Moscone is 37 feet. These letters seems to be roughly 63% of the height of the floor. This would mean the cap height is 23.3 feet. Assuming this is a capital C, a typical cap height to font size ratio is 6 to 10. This means this is a font size of 38.8 feet. 38.8 feet is 465.6 inches. A classic typographical point is 1/72nd of an inch.

This means, I think, that these letters are font size 33500.
