Like if we all started counting, everyone in this room, we started counting together over the course of our entire lives, we wouldn't hit that number.

As best as I understand it.

You know what I mean?

Maybe if you got some extra years, you'd be fine.

But we...

I didn't even know a quintillion was a number.

I missed that in the math class.

But the other thing that I learned about that blew my mind is that there is a number, when they were researching, they called it God's number.

And it is the number...

of moves, the shortest number of moves it would take to solve the cube.

And they found that it was 20.

So in all of these 43 quintillion combinations, there are 20 moves away is as far as you are

from having this scramble solved, the scramble that feels infinite in its chaos.

And it all gets brought back together in like such a simple number, such a simple amount.

And it also just feels like a little bit of a metaphor for life that these kids do it.

Like little kids do it who just see it as simply as it is.

And it's only us that really complicated to the point of, well, I guess I'll never figure it out.

Look at all the possibilities.

And I think that a child's more likely to look at the 20.

but i like how i know it's like i like how you ended that oh thank you laid it down yeah no well you're brilliant one day one day i'll i'll be fast one day the next time i see y'all maybe i'll impress your son yeah because because i didn't even want to say my time because then my time feels good to me because it's short to me but then you see someone do it in like six seconds yeah
