  • Let’s simplify the “riddle”.

    It states: a number is 1 plus half that number.

    What is a quantity that added to “half a number” gives the number? What do you add to 0,5 to make 1?

    The other half.

    So we go back to the original statement: “a number is 1 plus half that number” and change it to “a number is half that number plus half that number”.

    If you go back and forth between the two you may notice that one the one side there is “1” and on the other “half that number”.

    $1 is half the cost, what is the total cost?

    We leave the last step to the readers.







  • I like the way you framed the request. Too bad the answers are either waaaaaay too long wall of texts, uninformative zingers or bitter jokes.

    Here’s my attempt.

    1. A tool that allows a detached involvement with capitalistic production fueled by the individualistic drive for more wealth.

    2. A way for entrepreneurs to chase the myth of permanent growth beyond the limitations of fisical assets.

    3. A dangerous all compassing framework for our values that has no positive connection with the material condition of humankind.
