Pretend you work at a burger joint because in school you never learned about dimensional analysis you couldn't get a better job than what you have. You've been wrapping burgers for 35 years you earn $840 every two weeks, and you work 8 hours a day 5 days a week. How many burgers do you need to wrap in order to get your first million dollars. If you solve this problem you will have learn about dimensional analysis and therefor you'll quit your job and then get a better job but you then by quitting your answer will be wrong, so in order to be right you can't be right because then you'll be wrong so the only way to solve the problem is to be wrong and then you don't know the answer because you weren't right.

So it went something like that and it was a closed cycle. It was so confusing but then my teacher said that we'll pretend that if we get it right we won't quit the job therefor we can get the right answer. It was so weird.

But I got the answer right. Anyways what were you saying about robots?
I think my brain just went on strike...it's not warmed up enough, we aren't back in school yet.
