#ScribesAndMakers for February 9:

Is one the loneliest number?

No. Not even close.

For this specific one, the loneliness mostly scales with the integer itself in roughly linear fashion.

@patcharcana @gsuberland *mostly* scales. I would contend that any number which has been featured in any mathematical proof has loneliness nearly 100% nullified as a consequence.

Graham's number + 17 on the other hand is right out of luck.

@patcharcana @http_error_418 gotta go with - 17, so it's not even notable as being bigger than Graham's Number

@gsuberland I was going to make a joke as Avagadro's expense, but that's just a drop in the Graham's Number ocean.
