How dumb are we?

We’re pretty dumb, apparently, when compared to computers trying to demystify the 30-year-old Rubik’s Cube.

It turns out, according to Gizmodo, that every possible configuration of the multi-colored cube of mystery can be solved in 20 moves or less.

Wow.

It hardly seems possible, right?

OK, it must be noted: It did take 35 years of “Google-donated” computer time and a team of researchers to figure this out.

Happy Birthday, Rubik’s Cube!
