The problem with that podcast is that most of their selections are genuinely interesting - I even listened to them on long drives (e.g. "Origin of Species"). Even something I thought would boring like or "Farm Engines and how to Run" them turned out to be fascinating.
This one, on the other hand, seems to be genuinely boring. I couldn't get past the intro.
Good examples, but this one didn't make sense to me:
>Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: The Game disappeared from Xbox and PlayStation stores in December 2014 when a license expired. Players campaigned for years before a remastered edition arrived in 2021.
I mean, physical stores can also stop selling a certain game. Existing sold games were unaffected. Why does this matter?
Imagine you have a ruler. You want to cut it exactly at 10 cm mark.
Maybe you were able to cut at 10.000, but if you go more precise you'll start seeing other digits, and they will not be repeating. You just picked a real number.
Also, my intuition for why almost all numbers are irrational: if you break a ruler at any random part, and then measure it, the probability is zero that as you look at the decimal digits they are all zero or have a repeating pattern. They will basically be random digits.
