19:15:28 Taneb: do you ever wear a bowtie outside your hoodie twh 19:15:41 oerjan, yes, on occasion 19:15:42 mauris_: there are tons of duplicated place names, which each manage +inf on that scale 19:15:52 I am afraid it is a velcro bow tie rather than a proper one 19:15:57 Because I don't know how to tie them 19:16:06 you should ask spj hth 19:16:08 I prefer wearing a tie, though 19:16:44 * int-e growls at oerjan for linking to reddit rather than the original source 19:16:55 ais523, good point 19:17:21 the Hollywood in Birmingham, UK is much less glitzy than the US place witht the same name 19:17:53 I have never been to either, to my memory 19:18:10 you'd be unlikely to go via the one in Birmingham because it now has a bypass 19:18:25 so the only reason to go there would be if it were an endpoint of your journey, which is statistically unlikely because it's so small 19:18:28 I am not often in that end of the country 19:18:49 Birmingham's kind of out of the way for someone who mostly spends my time in the North East and Yorkshire 19:19:07 ignoring infinities, to beat south pole vs. north pole, you need two places with 1 edit distance more than half the globe apart 19:19:08 I went up to Edinburgh sometimes too 19:19:23 Taneb: Birminghm isn't in an end of the country, it's in the middle (at least if you interpret "country" = "England" and not "UK") 19:19:35 I was using end in a more figurative sense 19:19:53 apparently, to a Londoner, even Birmingham is "up north" 19:20:08 so I'm unsurprised a resident of York considers it to be excessively south 19:20:10 ais523, I consider York to be "down south" 19:20:18 haha :-) 19:20:40 But when I'm being more serious I do admit the midlands are a place that exist 19:20:59 you're already doing better than most people, then :-( 19:21:21 I think I even went to them once 19:21:55 most country-wide transport companies (buses, trains, etc.) are headquartered in Birmingham, because it's one of the most convenient places to get to and from 19:22:05 int-e: i did it on the same principle according to which i wouldn't link to an arxiv pdf: the other option does not include a link to the first 19:22:06 oerjan: here's a contender: nil river [guatemala] to nile river [india] 19:22:30 ais523, York is about as convenient, I think, but somewhat smaller, and further from London 19:23:02 Taneb: well it's hard to get to from anywhere in the south of the country 19:23:26 Direct trains to London like every 15 minutes during the day 19:23:35 whereas Birmingham is a good place if you want to reduce average journey times to random places in England (and even if you count the whole UK, it isn't terrible if you weight by population) 19:23:39 And Reading, and Southampton 19:23:48 Hourly or so 19:23:50 we have three competing train operators all doing frequent direct trains to London 19:24:03 But I think I am biased to the north 19:24:05 among other things 19:24:07 Taneb: the real question is when are we going to hug it out twh 19:24:09 oerjan: but there must be something better; I was curious whether a 'nil river' exists at all and got lucky :) 19:24:10 I was using end in a more figurative sense <-- like asimov? (explaining this further would be a spoiler) 19:24:25 oerjan, not that figurative 19:24:41 Taneb: well I'm one of the people who's happy to admit that the North exists and is relevant 19:24:53 even if I personally haven't been north of Sheffield (at least, not since I've been old enough to remember) 19:25:12 oerjan: also, perhaps pairs of longer names with the same edit distance should score better. 19:25:17 I haven't been south of Leeds since December, when I went to Australia 19:26:06 But almost all my train journeys are between Hexham, Newcastle, and York 19:26:18 Anyway I am going to go now 19:27:16 -!- J_A_Work has quit (Quit: J_A_Work). 19:27:19 where, Leeds?
