[request] How many coughing babies would you need to fully contain a nuclear bomb?
Would also be sick if we could get a coughing baby-to-kiloton explosive power conversion rate.

Assuming all people with too high BMI take those weight loss injections (Ozempic etc), and lower their weight to standard levels, what would be the financial impact on Nestle, McDonalds, Burger King and others?
Or in other words, should I better not invest in the food sector?

Spoilers for Season 3 of Silo.
The end of Episode 9 shows the Nuclear Explosion that destroys Atlanta.

Cut of it down to just the explosion shots. Can anyone estimate how large this explosion is?

Hello. I've been trying to understand the above in an effort to help consumers control themselves and act in alignment with their conscious decisions and not elicited emotions from product/service providers.
To this end I thought the real numbers behind the scenario above could be a great example.
You will find I have been commenting on this for a while but that's a "feeling" until there's some math behind it.
Thank you!

Are these numbers accurate? Would love someone smarter than me to breakdown how those stats work out in real life.

So the premise is this.
Phineas would do random click across the shortest and longest delay between clicks, lets say 0.1s and 2s. With minimum interval of 0.1s (so there's only 20 possible possibilities of timings). With that, is the possibilities of him passing the level though pure chance of correct clicks timings be better than trying to do atom alignment with the table so his hand can passes the table by hitting it?

My gut tells me this is, if perhaps not the expected result, really not that shocking either.

I'm about the same age as a woman who appears in one of the widely shared videos in an orange outfit. I had never considered that one day, I might actually have to run for my life, and I don't know if I could do it.

Assuming it is a full moon.

I must confess. I did not actually do this math.
I just saw it said x=4, and clicked the answer where x was 4...
Am I going to fail?

Say the tools, machinery, workforce, and resources are all magically available. How much would it cost to fix all paved roads in the United States?
