    Reshaping our understanding of granular systems

    The Brazil Nut Effect was possibly first discovered in Brazil, and refers to the tendency of Brazil Nuts to float to the top of any mixed bowl full of nuts. Notably, this kind of research could have been done as far back as ancient Egypt, but nobody ever thought to do it. Their results indicate that using a variety of spheres and cubes of different sizes provides a good model. What they don't talk about, is how spherical-cubes could provide an even better model, because the implication is that algebra and geometry ultimately describe a Singularity.

    This is the kind of thing that an Information Singularity can leverage. For example, you can think of the spheres as representing infinity, and the cubes the finite. Pi itself has turned out to not be random, but obey a multi-dimensional multifractal equation, meaning they have the means of doing this research properly, using supercomputers, but its anathema, explaining why nobody ever did it before. In high energy physics, this explains theories like Grand Unified ones, E8, and renormalization as living in denial of the self-evident truth. To the point where, apparently, you can prove we inhabit a singularity, using nothing more than ping pong balls a plastic cubes.

    The Monstrous Moonshine Conjecture has been established, meaning you can use this same experiment to prove infinity exists in the real world, but always transforms into the finite. Quantum mechanics indicates you can only chop things up so far, before they transform into a continuum.

    No wonder those damn nuts keep showing up in my nut bowl. They're nothing but infinitely expandable multidimensional fractals. I guess coming from ancient Egypt explains why my Brazil nuts are usually stale or rancid.

    Did I get that right?

    Physicists call it, "God Playing Peek-a-Boo!" The closer to the equator you get, the more large outside music festivals there are, and the more mix the nuts become. Infinity ain't nothing but a bowl full of mixed nuts! The implication is that Pi reflects the limits of our mortal fallibility, our ability to appreciate any infinity as being distinct from the finite. Quanta make no damn sense, because they reflect our own stupidity.

    An information Singularity, is a machine, that doesn't have to think about it, and provides a stochastic way to treat infinity as just another concept, that expresses particle-wave duality.

    Or maybe Brazil nuts are just people's least favourite.

    Probably. They always look delicious, but then. :(:eek::(

    Brazil nuts are larger than the other nuts in the bowl.

    The smaller nuts sink to the bottom, the large Brazil nuts can't do that so they stay on the top.

    Outside of the box, there is no spoon.
    How can you eat your pudding without a spoon!
    Think not outside of the box,
    And, eat your damned Brazil Nuts!

    Eat just a few Brazil nuts a day, they can be slightly radioactive from some regions and you can get too much Selenium eating handfuls. Though too little Selenium is much more likely for us humans.

    Eating too many Brazil nuts may result in some people glowing in the dark. Just ignore it.
