I couldn't help but recall the "Submarine" [1] essay from PG, which made me wonder if this entire article wasn't just a huge PR piece written by the lab-grown diamond company.

- ghaff 10y agoHow do you think the vast majority of articles in this general vein end up happening? PR people reach out to reporters with stories that (they hope) said reporters will find interesting for themselves and their readers. It's how things work. Hopefully, the story still ends up being sufficiently researched but, in most cases, the reporter or their editor didn't just wake up one morning and decide this would be an interesting story.
