Same. I think OP may have missed the point, although they’re right that there’s more to it than the rule makes it seem like.

This shit’s still true. I bet you’re taking me seriously as you read this and everything.

Of course. They just ask nicely to be let out, and everyone clicks “allow” reflexively. If you don’t see anything weird, nothing weird could be happening, right? /s

shitty LLM-generated nonsense sites

It’s kind of impossible to filter these out computationally, regardless of brand. You pretty much need to run them through a bigger LLM than generated them, and the economics of doing that for every indexed site are obviously bad. Doing it by hand may or may not be workable either, depending on how quickly you can detect bad domains versus how quickly a new domain can be put up.

It’s on us to figure out who’s trustworthy, and who just sounds authoritative, unfortunately.

And honestly, it could be that 90% wouldn’t know what the HRE was or who the Kaiser was once you told them. It’s just not a thing that usually comes up in everyday life.

TBH I knew about the Kaiserreich, but I had to look up the first one myself. It was the Holy Roman Empire. (Which wasn’t really much of a reich, but the Nazi’s weren’t noted for their attention to historical accuracy)

Yes, it’s true, you do. Left doesn’t really imply an up so much as it comes as a package with one, though. I’m not OP, but historically I had the same issue. I just didn’t automatically jump to “in is down, and I’m on the rim”, and instead was thinking about my actual physical left and right at that moment.

Ah, so the car isn’t even important. You’re one of the people imagining standing on the screw. As long as you have a convention about which way is “up” on it, that does work.

Oh, I see.

Car steering wheels work that way because of the convention. Change the side that the steering column’s pinion meets the rack and the wheel would work the opposite way. From the mathematical perspective, there’s two ways to continuously map an arc of the steering wheel to an arc of the wheels, and since they aren’t in the same plane neither is “wrong”.

Slightly, anyway. If you’re both standing over the thing it can potentially be agreed on. If you’re all over the place working on some big machine you need to use some language, and I’m not aware of a standard way to do it.

Wrist is going left.

So you’re explaining rotation, in terms of a smaller imaginary rotation, which engages with imaginary traction wheels, which engage with the work to be turned?

If that works for you, great, but it is complicated.

SAME!

Even “clockwise/counter-clockwise” is a bit vague if you’re not both on the same side of the thing, since something turning clockwise from one perspective turns counter seen from the opposite side.

Probably someone did. Not all English-speakers know about the first two, or have thought to ask.

Ah, a voracious terrestrial archosaur, as prompted. But what’s that in it’s beak?

Get out of here with that actual talent. /s
