    Very tempted to put this as my senior quote.

    bipch erastosthenes schooled b.o.b. 2,230 years ago

    Ok so this is cool but I always wondered how they knew the shadows were different at the same instant. I mean it is not like they had phones. How did they sync up that instant. I feel like that would be interesting to know but no one ever says.

    ^^^Does anybody know this one? How, that far apart, the time at which the shadows were observed was synced up? I am genuinely curious, not a goddamn moron asking a gotcha question. High/Low tide? (I live in the middle of the country I do not know for the precise habits of tidal activity.) The appearance of a star (or planet) in the sky? Something as utterly mundane as sunrise?

    Well, first of all, it wasn’t actually pillars! Eratosthenes was told about a well in Syene that, in the summer solstice every year (June 21st) would be illuminated at the bottom entirely and without any cast shadows. This indicated that the sun was directly overhead. Going off that well known curiosity and an intelligent hunch, our dude Eratosthenes waited until high noon of the summer solstice to measure the angle of a shadow cast by a stick in Alexandria. (Sidenote: Eratosthenes was a librarian of the infamous Library of Alexandria.)

    His next course of action was to hire bematists, surveyors of the time whose professional specialty was to measure distance by walking with equal length steps. They measured a distance between Alexandria and Syene of about 5000 stadia. (Guess where the word stadium comes from.) Once he had that measurement, Eratosthenes did his math-y thing, and there you have it.

    ANSWER EVEN COOLER THAN I HOPED!!

    Eratosthenes’ work was thorough enough that by the time he finished revising his calculations, he ended up only 66 km off of the actual polar circumference of the Earth, or an error margin of 0.16%. [wiki]

    There’s a secondary implication here that I’ve only recently realized:

    Those bematists had REALLY consistent stride lengths, if his calculations were that precise. Can you imagine walking with a step so consistent that the subsequent calculations based on that stride were less than a percent off?

    Actually, it is required not that the walkers have steps that are of identical lengths, but only that they have a very predictable average stride length over a measurable distance. It’s doesn’t matter if every stride is within 1% of 3ft, so long as every mile always takes with 1% of 2,250 strides

    Yup, but that’s still rather amazing when you think about it!

    Humans are remarkably clever at figuring such things out, really. It is amazing, and speaks highly of how humans have always been clever at figuring out how to do things when we need to.

    A week after graduating high school, Mike Brown was murdered by police officer Darren Wilson. His murder sparked the Black Lives Matter movement in Ferguson, MO and nationwide, and his family and supporters brought national attention to how police laws exist for arbitrary killings based on the racist notions of officers. Officer Wilson was not charged with any crime then, and after an investigation in July, 2020, he was still relieved of any charge. 

    Democrat mayors and governors nationwide responded to protests with increased police force and military presence. President Obama and news media called protesters “thugs,” and lumped incidents of property destruction with all BLM protesters to deflect from their demands for police accountability. 

    Police used Mike Brown’s size and race against him and lied about attacks. An investigation found that Officer Wilson had fired 10 shots into a non-moving person, 6 of which hit Mike Brown, only from the front. Eye-witnesses said that Mike Brown yelled “Hands up don’t shoot” before Wilson shot, but the FBI has denied it. Wilson had a minor bruise on his jaw. Amnesty International sent observers to the US for the first time, and their report cited human rights abuses, including the use of lethal force in Brown’s death, racial discrimination and excessive use of police force, imposition of restrictions on the rights to protest, intimidation of protesters, the use of tear gas, rubber bullets, and long range acoustic devices, restrictions imposed on the media covering the protests, and lack of accountability for law enforcement policing protests (x).

    6 years later and the government hasn’t changed, but the people have.
