How augmented realities and avatars going to change the world
Augmented realities and avatars have long been the stuff of science fiction stories. However, there are novels and comics that explore these concepts which may not be too far from becoming a reality. One such concept is the metaverse, a term coined by Neil Stevenson in his 1992 novel "Snow Crash." The metaverse is essentially an online world with its own set of rules and nations. While it may sound like something out of a futuristic cult classic like "Ready Player One" or "Snow Crash," the metaverse is actually on its way and it will revolutionize human interaction as we know it.

The Odd Theory That the Universe Contains Just One Electron
The observable cosmos is thought to contain about 1082 atoms. You can therefore reasonably assume that there are at least 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 in the observable universe as well, since every element in the periodic table contains at least one electron.
