What is the two element set where the first element is the best possible question I could ask and the second element is the answer to that question?
The omnipotent being in question may not enjoy this programmer’s ploy to wish for more wishes.
It’s technically quite clever, but depending on who you’re asking, it could be dangerous route to take.

While funny, this answer to the question is useless, thus making the question not actually be good, so the answer would have to be different. The only issue is it could lead to a paradox, where if the answer were to be useful the question would actually be good, possibly the best, which would mean it should’ve been the answer, etc.
I think you would break the machine or deity or whatever with that question xd
Have you ever had a dream that you, um, you had, your, you- you could, you’ll do, you- you wants, you, you could do so, you- you’ll do, you could- you, you want, you want him to do you so much you could do anything?
Could you give me a minute to think it over? Oh, wait, shit…
“What will be the official winning numbers, stated as five white-ball numbers in ascending order, followed by the Mega Ball and the Megaplier, for the Mega Millions drawing held on Tuesday, April 21, 2026 at 11:00 p.m. Eastern Time?”
You get the answer - the day after, on Wednesday. I don’t see any time-guarantee in the statement.
I can ask the longest and most complete question ever posed but if the genie is a trickster it’s always going to pan out that way.
Monkey’s paw: You get the numbers but miraculously 10,000 other people also get the winning numbers.
Ha ha this is really a good one, well done!
Does P=NP?
Does it get better?
What comes after death?
Monkey’s paw: You get the answer but you are also granted immortality.

What happened with ‘the safe’ that was on reddit years ago? OP never posted followup. Is he still alive? Was he taken by the underpeople? Did he release an eldritch monster?
When are you going to die?
Why does the universe exist?
Given a normal gaming computer running the most currently up to date version of Linux Mint and the rust programming language, what is the code required to make a program that can send files back in time without the need of anything more than a gigabyte of RAM to be able to send it if a single character is called out in the English language every 5 seconds until the code is completed?
How do we get to Longevity Escape Velocity?
How do we prevent Longevity Escape Velocity from causing a world-wide government deadlock?
That was the worst answer ever!
JK, well it’s not better today so let’s suffer less is my opinion. It’s not like L E.V is some sort of invincibility pill either, and to pile on top if that, rulers might think twice if they have to be around when their consequences (like fucking up the planet/their country) arrive.
Maybe people having an extra century or two will figure out things too, today is so hectic most people don’t have the time to get into politics.
Why do you think it would make some sort of deadlock if aging could be reversed enough?
How can humanity survive the coming climate apocalypse?
Adapt. And loads of suffering.
Easy question.
I dont think the majority of the planet’s life can adapt to being battered by storms, wildfires, 40-50C heatwaves and flooding
But you’re probably right about the suffering
What you’re describing is like how it is today in many places. Hold your hat!
Aye, it’s going to get a lot worse. Especially for those in countries without the infrastructure to have air conditioning or homes built for temperatures like which we’ve never seen.
