Your second sentence made me think of this.

Parts of my thesis were definitely written with “Goodbye Horses” on loop (you know from that one scene in Silence of the Lambs). Not sure what that says about my vibes in grad school.

It’s $3 per month for 200GB for me currently in the US.

I didn’t know about logarithmic perception, that’s interesting! I bet you’re right about 7x being chosen due to the significance of the number seven in the Bible.

I think what you said is true but that also ketchup as a material is shear thinning—meaning as you shake or tap the bottle, this creates stress or “shear” on the liquid which causes the viscosity to decrease. It also takes a little bit of time for the liquid to re-thicken, so it will actually pour pretty well a few seconds after shaking it.
