100-Vehicle Pileup in Denver After First Snowfall of the Season
Winter is coming. Denver, Colorado recorded its first snowfall of the season yesterday, and frosty hell broke loose on the city’s major thoroughfares. The sudden arrival of icy and wet roads means only one thing. Drivers headed out on their morning commutes, likely unaware and unprepared for the...

The 7 bridges of Königsberg is a well known problem in graph theory: The task is to cross all bridges, each bridge only once. It's proven by Leonard Euler hat you can only do it if the end-points (here represnted by the 4 land masses) all have an even number of connections (bridges) or if there are exactly 2 points with an odd number of connections. In the classic problem 3 of the land masses have 3 connections, and one has 5. Adding the extra bridge creates 2 even land masses with 6 and 4 connections.

Does Königsberg actually have 7 bridges ?
Back then: yes.
Now (from Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_Bridges_of_Königsberg#Present_state_of_the_bridges):
"Two of the seven original bridges did not survive the bombing of Königsberg in World War II. Two others were later demolished and replaced by a modern highway. The three other bridges remain, although only two of them are from Euler's time (one was rebuilt in 1935).[8] Thus, as of 2022, five bridges exist at the same sites that were involved in Euler's problem."

Drinking beer is the recommended medical treatment, since it efficiently muscles those parts of the body and dulls the pain.
Clunky, but pretty damn impressive for 1971.

For those long voyages at sea, sailors needed something that provided nourishment, wouldn't spoil, and was easy to transport. Their solution was pocket soup.

Funny but it was just a thick soft jelly mixture they added to boiled water.
You don't want to know where they kept the salad.
