I would never make it as a bird. The stress of keeping the eggs warm all the time would be too much for me.

It doesnt do birds any favors either, great tits or no.

Wim T Schippers "Peanut Butter Platform" / museum visitors

In 2011, an iteration of this 1969 floor-bound installation was damaged on several occasions while on view at the Boijmans van Beuningen Museum in Rotterdam.

The work itself is true to its name: 1,100 liters of creamy peanut butter spread over a 14x4m expanse on the ground. Unfortunately, this iteration of the piece was installed without guardrails, which led to four separate visitors accidentally stepping onto the artwork.

In the wake of these events, museum officials refused to cordon off the piece, explaining that such an intervention would not be aesthetically pleasing. They did, however, send each of the museum visitors a bill for the restoration of the piece, which involved museum staff applying new layers of peanut butter to even out the surface.

the set of ships is nonempty and finite

(any reasonable notion of) size induces a total order on the set of equivalence classes of ships of the same size

every nonempty finite total order has a maximum

there exists a ship that is no smaller than any other ship

Did the manufacturers stop making them to create artificial scarcity or something??

[ms-demeanor]

In like September RAM manufacturers created an agreement with OpenAI to sell like 40% of the global manufacturing capacity for RAM to them, and then in like October Crucial announced that they were shutting down their consumer RAM division to focus on enterprise manufacturing but yeah in like 2022/2023 the manufacturers intentionally limited production in order to 'correct' for low prices so long story short there are multiple issues causing scarcity in the consumer RAM market and they have gotten WAY worse since September.

[turbozarky]

The reason RAM prices went up 4x is that a massive amount of not-yet-manufactured memory was bought with money that doesn't really exist to be put into GPUs that haven't been made yet, to be installed in data centers that haven't been built, powered by infrastructure that may never exist, to satisfy demand that isn't actually there, in order to generate profits that are mathematically impossible
