Vodka may be one of the worst things for a potato to become. Fries? Mashed with gravy? Poutine? Chips/crisps? Come on.

Are we just going to get a “new” article on this every week now?

No, ghostwriting is not plagiarism. Done correctly, there is nothing wrong with it. Hard to argue this professor did it correctly

Comparing high-energy events, especially ones that cause destruction, to weapons that have been used is very common, not just in “murica”

The lack of specificity as to what kind of atomic bomb is silly, though.

Not true on either count. We just don’t have enough unions and only some of us have good vacation.

I’m a noob, but often what drives up lens cost is the complexity associated with making the image better over the whole field of view. Lenses have various inherent errors (called aberrations) that are corrected by a combination of complex surface profiles on individual lens elements and stacking multiple individual lens elements to cancel each other’s errors out. A scope likely only needs good correction near the center, where the user will be looking most of the time, while a camera lens needs good correction everywhere so the whole photo looks good when you view it later. Wider field of view makes good correction much more complicated and expensive very fast.

I have yet to see one of these comments with chatGPT summaries of articles that actually adds any value. Usually they are wrong or misleading. Sometimes they are just as long if not longer than the original article. This one, for example, summarizes the article that OP basically already summarized in the post description.

ChatGPT has its uses. This ain’t one of them.

Largest to smallest is way more logical than smallest to largest. You start general and get more specific as you progress. It is in general a better approach to conveying information and cataloging data. Not just dates.

What about search engines? DDG and bing suck ass, google is the only of the three that returns results that actually remotely match what I type in.

The App Formerly Known as Twitter does have a lot of porn. Maybe you’re on to something here.
