The AI explained it a bit better but actually got its calculation wrong! But I was able to see from its correct explanation why it had got its answer wrong. I then told it so and it corrected itself.
Not too long ago I asked ChatGPT what the black marks on Japanese woman's foreheads meant in the older culture. It answered with the word for the Japanese tradition of blackening the teeth, which was also prevalent back then. So I googled, and found the right tradition, and said "don't you mean X?" and it gave me a breakdown between the words for both traditions, and hoped that it clarified the situation!

Light can be reflected not only in space but also in time—and researchers exploring such “time reflections” are finding a wealth of delightfully odd and useful effects First, you need a DeLorean
Well, maybe not 'need', but if you're going to do it, you might as well do it in style

I can travel backwards in time, but somehow I always end up with a hangover...

Funny thing - getting the hangover before your night out.

Were you driving before getting drunk?   How you dare?

I only drink re-annual wine - I get drunk before the grape vines are even planted!
The Oh-God of wine must really hate me...

There was once a lady named Brite
Who could travel faster than light
She went off one day
In a relative way
And came back the previous night.

The present article delves into .NET Native AOT, uncovering how it works, its benefits, and the various scenarios where it finds application. Write once, run in one place

Quote: .NET Native Ahead-of-Time (AOT) compilation stands as a cutting-edge advancement within the .NET platform. With AOT the C# code is compiled to native code on the developer machine. This contrasts with the traditional method where code is compiled to native code during runtime.
This article was written as though the audience was born yesterday. That's not a cutting-edge advancement. It's the way software had been produced for decades prior to the .NET Framework.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Which makes it cutting-edge for .NET!

I guess in a way that's sorta true.
But I also had a thought about the audience. If the reader is a twenty-something, then .NET might be all they know.

I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.
