Meta scale still surprises me sometimes. I was explaining to someone that a proposed approach to a problem with a thing in our system was impractical because there are "like a trillion of them", meaning to be hyperbolic. Then I went to see how many of the object in question there are actually are. And yeah, I was exaggerating a little bit. Turns out there are only three-quarters-of-a-trillion of them. Crazy.
