Finish Drawing the Cat. It seems pretty easy, since all you have to do is pretty much connect the lines, but even that simple step was beyond some people.
Thanks for that article on Banksy! I've often suspected the artist is a collective, not an individual, at least insofar as the actual production of the street art goes. There may be only one mind behind the designs. The legal issues of crime and copyright are fascinating! I've also wondered where all that money goes. Is Banksy simply accumulating private wealth? Why isn't there a Banksy Charitable Foundation to alleviate injustice and suffering in the world?

ReplyDeletere: The trolley problem...
ReplyDeleteWait until the first set of wheels have cleared the switch, then throw the switch. The second set of wheels will go down the other track. As the two tracks diverge, the trolley will not be to follow both paths and remain on the rails. It will derail, thus saving everybody.
...Unless the diverging track quickly turns so that it runs parallel to the second one, like a passing siding on a railroad's main line. In this case the trolley's wheelsets MIGHT remain on the rails, and you end up wiping out everybody.

But if you wipe out everybody there's no witnesses so you're clean.
