At work we somehow landed on the topic of how many holes a human has, which then evolved into a heated discussion on the classic question of how many holes does a straw have.
I think it’s two, but some people are convinced that it’s one, which I just don’t understand. What are your thoughts?
as vsauce said “At small enough scales, ‘How many holes does [an object] have?’ becomes a meaningless question. Ultimately, [the object] isn’t a solid thing that could even have holes. It’s just a loose constellation of atoms and molecules.”
