Notes

The ant-elephant fractal - An elephant hiding behind ant, hiding behind an elephant hiding behind an ant. To infiniti. Once you see it, you realise it's happening literally everywhere. And it's often circular.

People creating the problems they complain about, and blocking the solutions they suggest.

When you slow it all down in the debugger and make the circle smaller and smaller, eventually you see it: the elephant trying to hide behind itself. The elephant is trying to be the ant and the elephant at the same time.

The ant and the elephant is you! You are all trying to be ant-elephants!

And then nobody is happy and so it escallates and escallates until the entire universe is trying to hide behind a single neutrino.

It's ridiculous maximus!

And we have nuclear war over a piece of cheese. #
