TIL “Graham’s Number” is so large that according to mathematicians, in theory, storing the ginormous number in one’s head could create a black hole

via reddit.com

i don’t think black holes work like that but i don’t know enough about math to say

there are a number of reasons why you can’t store Graham’s Number in your head, that’s just the final one. Your brain doesn’t have enough brain cells to store the digits of Graham’s Number. At the body’s rate of ~1,000 new brain cells a day – and even assuming you don’t lose any – you’d hit the end of the universe before you made enough. If your cells started somehow multiplying, that wouldn’t be fast enough either. Even then, your head would explode from the pressure. If your skull was indestructible, though, and you could make new cells at incredible speeds, then yeah… eventually it’d get too dense and form a black hole (it would happen before you get to 10^60, which is pittance compared to Graham’s Number). So it would take two acts of magic for this to happen, and if magic is real then you have better things to do than turning your brain into a black hole. Like talking to ducks or summoning antique globes

jeez graham

“it is so large that the observable universe is far too small to contain an ordinary digital representation of Graham’s number, assuming that each digit occupies one Planck volume, possibly the smallest measurable space”

Holy shit.

COOL IT GRAHAM

hey guys im just here to talk about my cool new number i invented called vans number. it’s kinda hard to tell u what nunber it is cuz it’s SO fuckin huge for you simpletons, but it’s approximately grahams number times 3… yeah no big deal. my dick is huge by the way
