The training data probably includes a lot more formal writing. As the major selling point of chatgpt is it sounding like it “knows” things. More “complex” verbiage is helpful to that. This type of writing is more common in things like textbooks and scientific writing in general which have been at least part of its training data.

You asked for spoilers so I’m not tagging them. Iron man dies, Captain America retires, black widow dies, antman joins in. There’s some wonky parallel world time travel hijinks. Think those are all the big ones.

Maybe first meat, gmo agriculture has been around a long time.

The dissociation constant of pure water at RT is 1x10^-14. This is many magnitudes more than just one per avogadros number. The “trick” is that any given molecule of water basically has that 1x10^-14 chance of being split or otherwise whole at any given time.

Unfortunately, I can. 30% of Americans are actively antiscience/reality and they for sure enforce it on their kids. Another 40% honestly don’t give a fuck and again show that apathy to their kids. Leaves 30% who care but doesn’t exclude those who are limited by socioeconomics.

You talk to people and realize their parents never drove them out of the light pollution late at night to see a meteor shower or comet pass by never showed them any of the constellations, etc. Applies to all science really but astronomy is often put on the wayside even more than others because a lot of people really aren’t curious about space anymore. We’ve seen this with NASA funding since the end of the Apollo missions.

The secrets out

Even in baobab forest pictures they seem far enough apart for sunlight not to be an issue. I’d hazard either an environmental or animal caused adaptation (but I can’t seem to find anything about why).

I’d also say for forests in general “crown shyness” means if they get similar enough height they usually avoid one another rather than compete.

So I’m well overdue for a new filter lol. Still dealing with sprinter (spring winter)where I am and have a dog. Not gonna say how long it’s been since I switched it.

Wait how often are furnace filters supposed to be changed?

Pens are dust-free, pencils are not. Dust-free pencils are special and expensive because it’s a lot of chemistry and testing to ensure that. How do you cleanly sharpen a pencil for example? Special pens are special but cheap because the components to make them are still relatively simple, the ink is still standard. More expensive than standard pens by a fair bit but a lot cheaper and more practical than the pencils.

Pens are dust-free as is, the problem with a regular ballpoint or felt tip pen is that both inking mechanisms rely on gravity. When you’re in 0g the ballpoint won’t work at all and the felt will stop working after a point when there’s no gravity to pull more ink to the tip.

You could probably spin a felt until it rewets but you’d be liable to make a mess as well.

Shit dad to be worth 300mill and won’t just buy his son a house. Like the whole point of wealth is to keep life easy for you and yours.

Depends on your field and thesis.

The NIH postdoc rate and therefore academic standards in most places for all biomedical postdocs is ~60k. Math is an outlier by a lot.

Social programs only exist to the extent they do as a wealth subsidy. Paying so low or scheduling hours such that people are on government benefits is subsidizing what the wealthy should be paying people. Medicare and Medicaid are ways to give money to middlemen instead of just directly paying for care. Until Biden they literally weren’t allowed to negotiate prices as every other form of health insurance does. All of these are bullshit concepts. Student loans aren’t even run by the government just paid by us while a third party servicer reaps the money and as you note shouldn’t exist. All developed countries do miles better in all these areas than the US.

It also goes to subsidizing the wealthy. Can’t forget that.

That’s them not considering all the benefits. So much shit we pay for in America that Europe gets through it’s taxes, that aren’t even that much higher.

Depends on who can control the media and the military. The first few are probably not going to last too long because of the shitastic economy they’re going to inherit. Ukraine could get worse if they see it as necessary to prove themselves/distract from the economy or they could pull out so they can consolidate domestics affairs first.

I mean you could make a game with it and argue it in court but that’s expensive af. That’s a bigger part of patenting for the big for corps. Whether it’d stand in court or not is less relevant than scaring people off due to costs.

They eat most small critters they see including ticks.
