I want an ant farm that comes with bottles of ant pheremones. Then I'd use them to build a Rube Goldberg machine out of ants and make them calculate pi or some

Edit: somebody should totally apply to YC with this idea. You could even get free publicity by getting PETA on your case.
Edit 2: Name the company "Insect Overlords".
- iamwil 18y agoI don't know that you can calculate pi directly. However, an easier problem to map to with ants is the Traveling Salesman. Then you can map it to all the other NP-complete problems.
