Some Cal-Tech student set a new world record for solving the Rubik’s Cube - 11.13 seconds.
Here’s the AP headline:
Rubik’s world record: 3 cubed plus 2.13 seconds
Three cubed? That’s 27. Three squared would be nine… plus 2.13 seconds getting you to the 11.13.
An impressive feat for new record holder Leyan Lo, who dusted my best time of 45 seconds. Not so impressive for the math geniuses over at AP, who let thier desire for a cutesy headline override the need for accuracy in journalism.
