There's also a problem with adding on stuff later. For example you have some brackets to hold something, one made classically with mostly square shapes, the other with this type.

Then you later need to add some way to attach another thing to the bracket. With the classic version there might be the option to just add some threaded holes and it's done, with the AI/topographical version you'll probably have to start "from scratch".

Because beautiful lies sell better than not so beautiful truths.

It's not almond milk, it's nut juice (or almond-based milk substitute) the same way it's not plant-based meat, it's plant-based meat substitute.

I think it's a bit stupid to keep calling new stuff that isn't the same thing as something earlier by the same name or at least trying to invoke the image of it. Just like with JavaScript and Java.

I think the plant-based stuff would do better if they didn't try so hard to emulate something else. Make good recipes by themselves, don't try to fake something else.

On amusement rides they can reject you because of weight because they have an exception to anti-discrimination laws for reasonable grounds. Those reasonable grounds are human safety.

This link shows that airlines also can reject you for being overweight if it will have effects on the balance of the plane or making the load of the plane outside accepted limits. That's improbable on most commercial flights, however, as a single person has little effect on a large plane.

People have probably come close to using 100% of their potential when adrenaline was coursing through their veins and they absolutely needed to go to the limit to save someone. There was a man who lifted a helicopter so they could pull a crushed person out from under it.
