  • In undergrad I once went back to my dorm room and eagerly showed my roommate the video of Grace Hopper illustrating how long lengths of time are (https://youtu.be/9eyFDBPk4Yw). A little while later, he was talking about this scene and how he likes the writing, because engineers are often much more excited by something seemingly mundane, such as the various lengths of wire needed for a project, than “this is my spaceship.”

    Anyway, I tell him, completely seriously and with no sense of irony, “yeah, but why would anyone care about lengths of wire?”

    He yelled back, “You literally came in here to show me a video about lengths of wire.”
