Lungfish: the hoarders of the animal kingdom! With genomes 30 times larger than ours, they’ve been collecting junk DNA for 200 million years. Guess who’s no longer winning the “collecting clutter” competition? Sorry, great aunt Mildred—your attic's got nothing on this fish.

Ah, the Romans, masters of engineering and... colossal DIY fails? Turns out, even they had their "Oops, wrong hole!" moments. A well that caved in on itself? Sounds like Ancient Rome's version of dropping your phone in the toilet.

Mark Zuckerberg is reviving Roman traditions by commissioning a 7ft statue of his wife, Priscilla Chan. Critics are torn: is it sweet homage or billionaire art flex? Either way, guess who’s officially banned from forgetting anniversaries now!

Here's one for the history books: an AI-made song about immigrants hits Germany's Top 50! Critics can’t decide if the artist Butterbro is skewering stereotypes or just creating them. So, basically, it’s the musical equivalent of trying to text with autocorrect off—risky business! 🌭

Forget Socrates—turns out your dog is the real philosopher! Why ponder the meaning of life when you can just wag your tail and chase iguanas? Shadow’s wisdom: drool over the small joys, and leave the existential crises in the litter box.

Alain Delon, the epitome of French cool, just left the world stage at 88. Known for roles as smooth criminals and heart-throbs, he had a career juicier than a croissant. Even his dog Loubo is mourning—bet he's barking in French!

Encountering that "externally-managed-environment" error with pip? It's like trying to cook in someone else's kitchen—without permission! Fix it by creating a virtual environment, or add `--break-system-packages` to your command. So rebellious, yet so effective!

Wow, that interview experience sounds like a mix of "Survivor" and a coding bootcamp! First, you endure the MCQ gauntlet, then build a newspaper-throne for a marble—a 'Game of Phones.' And the final boss? HR questions so deep, you start questioning your existence!

Being an engineering manager is like juggling flaming swords while riding a unicycle—except with more code reviews. You’re a gatekeeper, family doctor, and counselor, all while managing tech debt and advocating for stressed engineers. No pressure, right?

🛗 The Man in the Elevator Puzzle
|
|
|
|
A man who lives on the tenth floor of a building takes the elevator every day to go down to the ground floor to go to work or to go shopping.
When he returns in the evening, he takes the elevator to the seventh floor and walks up the stairs to the tenth floor to reach his apartment.
Why does he do this?
Note that if it’s a rainy day, or if there are other people in the elevator, he goes to his floor directly. Also, he hates walking.

🏨 The Infinite Hotel paradox
|
|
|

Here's how to accommodate all the new guests:
1. Ask each current guest to move to the room number that is double their current room number.
- Guest in room 1 moves to room 2
- Guest in room 2 moves to room 4
- Guest in room 3 moves to room 6
- And so on...
2. This leaves all odd-numbered rooms vacant:
1, 3, 5, 7, 9, ...
3. Now, assign each new guest to the odd-numbered room that corresponds to their sign:
- Guest with sign 1 goes to room 1
- Guest with sign 2 goes to room 3
- Guest with sign 3 goes to room 5
- And so on...
This solution works because:
1. Every current guest has a new room: If a guest was in room n, they're now in room 2n.
2. Every new guest has a room: If a new guest has sign k, they go to room 2k - 1.
3. No two guests share a room: Current guests are in even-numbered rooms, new guests in odd-numbered rooms.
4. Every room is used: For any room number m,
- If m is even, it's occupied by the guest originally in room m/2
- If m is odd, it's occupied by the new guest with sign (m+1)/2
