2026 0118 Age is the Ultimate Example of a Receding Hrair Line

A great name for a useful handle in the conceptual space.

We came up with the concept of the Hrair Line, defined by our hivemind as “a somewhat arbitrary line past which all numbers seem equally large”

Coming up with this term also led to one of my favorite puns, the “receding hrair line” which is when you act like a number is unfathomably large when it benefits you, but quite reasonable when it doesn’t.
