Who knew

How fun

[Edit] Okay, it's less cool seeing that it doesn't work for everything i.e. gross, dozens :|

[Edit2] Yes it does :thumbsup:

Whats up, long time eh

I know the late nighters have some more funny google calculator antics

ever try searching "the answer to life, the universe and everything" or pi or i or e or even hbar!? gotta love the geeks at google
 
Speaking of i, pi and e I was poking around some old /. stuff and found this:

If you consider what are probably the 5 most important numbers: 0,1,e,i,pi... ever wonder how they're related? Try this e^(i*pi)+1
 
Or check out some of this interesting mumbo jumbo:

The Hubble-barn is about 13 liters, depending on your current favorite value for Hubble's constant (H). This is the volume of a straw that has the cross-sectional area of a barn (a nuclear physics cross-sectional area equal to 100 square femtometres, roughly the size of a largish nucleus) and a length equal to the radius of the universe (given by H^{-1}c). (That means a gallon of milk has roughly the same volume as a straw with the area of a medium-sized nucleus such as Silicon that reaches to the end of the universe...:shocked: )[/i]

or...

You could measure the gas mileage of a car in inverse acres. To calculate the inverse gas mileage, you drive as far as you can with one gallon, then you make a very long skinny hose whose length is the distance you drove and whose volume is exactly one gallon. You then measure the area of the cross-section of the interior of this hose in acres. Now take the reciprocal.

Awesome. :beer:
