Uh, it's not a lizard with a fungal infection, it's clearly a frog/plant symbiote. Gosh

Crazy thought - instead of just putting trees near curbs, have dedicated green spaces in cities where there aren't sidewalks or other important infrastructure near the trees.

You can remark on how that orange is closer to red, and how that one is closer to yellow though

Public fountain? I think you mean community bidet

These sentences:

Average weekly earnings went up from $1016 to $1236, a 21.6% increase. That's come up short on the 23.4% inflation in that time period.

answer the implicit question in this sentence:

People can complain about how the economy isn't working for regular people, but the last 5 years were actually a pretty good run for wage earners.

It wasn't really a good run. Wages didn't keep up with inflation. Even though wages are higher, the buying power with those wages is less.

Some of the new Krogers have full service bars inside them, so you can sip on a pint in Kroger

Right, sure. At which point, pointing out that "double jeopardy doesn't apply" is kind of just needless pedantry.

You know, I thought that too at one point, but if the defendant's lawyer is trying to use double jeopardy to get this incredibly high profile, publicly scrutinized case thrown out, we should just sit down, shut up, and listen to the professionals

Yeah I find LLMs most useful to basically read the docs for me and provide it's own sample/pseudocode. If it goes off the rails, I have to guide it back myself using natural language. Even then though it's still just a tool that gets me going in the right direction, or helps me consider alternative solutions buried in the docs that I might have skimmed over. Rarely does it produce code that I can actually use in my project.

Not that I think you're wrong, but having him wear a bulletproof vest, handcuffs, and shackles on his ankles any time he's transported/shown off in public is gonna make that story real hard to buy

North Europe is a frozen wasteland where nothing grows for like a third of the year, being able to digest lactose in those months is hugely advantageous. I don't think "winter" counts as an "extreme specific scenario"
