Em-dashes and "it's not X. It's Y" seem to be in most LLMs writing style purposefully so they can have detection tools. Just so academia can claim some level of detectability

Especially, that Netflix 4k seems to be on par with blue ray 1080p. Why is the image quality on Netflix so bad? Do people really not care about not having 4k when paying for the most expensive tier of the most expensive streaming service?

Had a friend talking about them, but they seem to be prohibitively expensive. Do you have positive experience using such lamps? I tend to have some eczema on my scalp that sun really helps with. Maybe a lamp that costs the equivalent of a w

I used to take 4k IU + K² and think that I'm covered, since 4K units was a lot. I landed on just above deficient when tested. My wife was on kind of same regime, but didn't follow it very strictly. She was deficient, but not extre

I remember playing Malzahar support before it was meta, because that was the only character I could play well in League of Legends. Sometimes people would even rage quit. But I could do really well as support, even if it was slightly worse

Wow, thanks a lot! I kind of knew things like that happen (one instance of a thing happening brings attention to other similar things), but didn't know it actually had a name. Thank you. I really like knowing precise names for things,

It's totally true, and more so true in a slaughterhouse. Blunt knifes cause strain injuries on joints, and make people use much more force than necessary, which comes at a loss of precision. And then it turns out, that with enough forc

In the equation there seems to be a typo; 103 - number of ppl in queue, 4 - up to X weeks per person, 2 - number of machines 12 - ?? Maybe you initially wanted to use full months for how long a person can hold an item, but then switched t

You shouldn't really sharpen kitchen knifes too sharp. And even if they're not super razor sharp (cutting a finger with no resistance), you should still warn people new to your kitchen or even family members/regular users rig

I've learned about the cancer vs tissue repairability (or cancer vs heart/cardiovascular failure) from Joe Rogan's podcast with Bret Weinstein (or his brother, don't remember). It's visible in death causes - pretty

Looks like a lot. Is it always like that, or were the last two weeks really that special? One thing that sticks out is that GA (small), but also military, planes' accidents usually end with deaths and big planes accidents usually end w

In a way you're right, but what you can do comes from a significantly high spiritual development level. For an average Joe it's quite abstract and maybe even unattainable in this life. OTOH, there are people who get sensory overst
