Yesterday, I had a lot of reasons to think about the question of mechanical advantage involving ladders. The 40-foot extension ladder that I ordered (one has to special-order such things) finally arrived and it was time to clean out the gutter on the upper edge of my house.

As you know, I’m a gamer. My recent play-list includes Cyberpunk 2077 (what a disappointment: a mediocre game with too much Keanu Reeves in it) and Fallout 4 (in survival mode). Fallout’s survival mode is how the game should be played – it’s much more “realistic” if that makes any sense. But its ending was horrible and really pissed me off.
