Nov. 12th mind blowing random thought of the day: During the height of the Cold War, nuclear ICBMs couldn’t be launched without the entering of an 8-digit code, but many generals in charge feared that they wouldn’t be able to track down and enter the numbers quickly enough if the need arose. In order to bypass this perceived dilemma, they simply set the code to 00000000.

Nov. 16th mind blowing random thought of the day: The word “robot” originates from the Czech word ‘robotnik,’ meaning “forced labor,” and is derived from the Old Church Slavonic linguistic root ‘rabota,’ meaning “slave.” In English, “robot” first appeared in a translation of Czech playwright Karel Capek’s 1920 sci-fi drama ‘RUR,’ or ‘Rossum’s Universal Robots.’ In his play, Capek describes a company that manufactures and sells workers that look and act like humans, but lack souls.
