We Met the Mind Behind the Rubik's Cube - Mashable Originals
Ойын-сауық
Have you even given up, helplessly, on a Rubik's Cube? What was meant to be a tool that helped students learn about space and design is now a competition to see who can finish it faster with their eyes closed. Love it or hate it (because you can't complete it), the cube has become a staple of human culture. This is Erno Rubik, the man behind the legacy.

It doesn't take a genius to solve the cube, just a good bit of muscle memory and hand eye coordination, anyone can learn it and it's better to learn it than to not learn it as it helps you think 3 dimensionally and also helps to take your mind off other things. Plus it's a cool party trick.
Any other speedcubers here?

The Rubik's is a complicated to solve after I first realize my new method. That's why I change my genre to puzzles that involves logic, abstract and critical thinking skills and also requires intuition 😂 The essence of solving a puzzle is you must be honest to yourself. The genre that I said only has one solution or more just always keep in mind that you can explain the concept on how you solve it. Just saying because mostly here in my country they cheat, look up solutions in the internet that is why in other puzzles they don't know how to apply what they have learn because they are all static and spoon-feed. And also they are also shy in accepting a new concept. It takes a lot of time and effort and media to do it 😁😂😃
These days, cube edges is not the same size with the corners 354M and tengyun v2m
well I don't know anything about the methods but I just remembered how to solve it. it doesn't make any sense for me like why the red is here and I have to make 5 of this to replace it with orange or whatsoever. I just know how to solve it. it takes me about 1 minute.

Very interesting about the cube being important in religion, building etc. When you look at the historical record, the cube was not the original form of building, how is this outside of cake, they were more like grass huts rounded forms, so why would the cube becomes the important thing of religion, buildings, etc? Makes me wonder if possibly did our Ancestors come to earth on a cube. P s for all you creationists, and evolutionists, please, don't start arguing about it, it's just a question of something he brought up. Most didn't listen to what he was talking about. You're more interested in what people have done with the gamecube.
