The CMY color implied by the hex code.

And the CMYK color implied by the hex code. :slight_smile:

If you get rid of the percent sign, and divide all the numbers by 100, it might make more sense. Maybe.

Its showing volume on a complex plane. As you do

Nah, that would take quaternions – the volume of any set on a plane is always zero.

That was pretty much the first draft, but then they changed it from volume to snakes.

How about if you pile a whole bunch of complex planes in a stack? Do you get a volume that way?

Naz Knight, poet-in-residence at Luton Town FC, read a poem on The Verb a while ago, ending with these lines:

I’m proud to be a Hatter
In white, blue and orange
Through every challenge we face
Together, we will forage

For the last line, I would have used this: “Together, fix the door hinge” :wink:

So NOT into rap or Eminem, yet it still shouldn’t really surprise me that we share a spot on a Venn diagram!

I do quite like a wide selection of hip-hop, but Eminem is not really on my radar. I just happened to catch his instructive take on the “nothing rhymes with orange” trope. :slightly_smiling_face:

Another trope: No such thing as “Q” palindromes. Here’s one I did when someone challenged me at work long ago:

Qadaffi. No son I? Fadda Q!

The phonetic spelling there works especially well if one grew up in a Brooklyn neighborhood and remain open to the implied father/son melodrama.

Sounds like you have strong, ahem, Qi IQ.

I love the letter “Q”; pleasantly round, and with a cute little tail.
