10:57 Morse code was built by using an indirect measure of the frequency of the letters in English (how many times a letter is used in a given vocabulary), and then assigned the shorter codes to more frequently used letters. For the same reason, letters rarely used are more difficult to use in a word (they are used in less words), so they have more value in a Scrabble game. not a coincidence they are strongly linearly correlated.

Topology (essentially the mathematical study of holes) is pretty interesting, and according to it you're right; straws only have one hole. In fact, straws, donuts, and coffee mugs are all topologically identical! You can also use it (and VSauce did use it) to prove that the human body has seven holes.
