In which Hank just gets really nerdy for a while trying to figure out whether it's possible to encode and decode all 24 TB of Wikipedia onto and from a single QR code. Please feel free to check my math and let me know if I got anything wrong.
Minute Physics: How Far Can Legolas See: • How Far Can Legolas See?
Decoding a QR Code by hand: • How to Decode a QR Cod... (which does a great job of explaining exactly how QR codes work.)
I know I didn't correct for the distortion at the edge of the wide-angle shot, but Henry and I went through the calculation and found that it didn't affect the overall result.
