this is actually a joke compression algorithm that compresses your data by one byte by appending it to the filename. (and you can execute it as many time as you want)
Too bad I can't remember the name.
we could also use it as a file system
Obligatory "pi hasn't been proved to be normal"
Oh, I guarantee that pi is 100% normal. Just not necessarily in the base you want it to be normal in.
I don't know of a proof that pi is normal in any base (even non-integer bases) so I'd be interested to see on what basis you can guarantee it.
It's somewhere in pi. Wait a moment while I look it up.
Relatable tbh
Pi being irrational and not normal makes it the most relatable number
