Did you know...
...about something called The Infinite Monkey Theorem? The idea is that if you an infinite number of monkeys (or indeed other primates) down at some typewriters, and leave them adequately fed and watered, one of them will eventually type out the complete works of William Shakespeare, just by randomly pressing keys. The extreme improbability of any monkey doing that is counterbalanced by there being infinitely many monkeys (and, in some versions, infinite time), so one of them is bound to do it.
It was developed in 1913 by Emile Borel and Arthur Eddington, but wasn't tested using a computer until 2003 in an experiment conducted at Plymouth University, England. The results were, unsurprisingly, of little literary merit, with a stream of unconnected letters going on for countless pages. However, the internet proves that no matter how many monkeys are bashing away at keyboards, they still won't produce anything worthwhile.
As you're consigned to not doing anything worthwhile anyway, thanks to this theorem, why not consider joining
