I'm quite puzzled as to whether #ChatGPT has gotten better with citations or not.

On one hand, it wrote a paper for me about bullshit that contained only references to actual papers. I don't think it used to be able to do that.

Balsamic vinegar, malt vinegar, rice vinegar... This graphic takes a look at the chemical quirks of the different vinegar types and how they're made: https://www.compoundchem.com/2023/02/20/vinegar/

@joopdelfijn @juliegrrl I think she reffers to 1-chromosomes, 2-hormones, 3-hormone expression, 4-internal genitalia, 5-external genitalia.
In my opinion, for humans that seems about correct (I would add secondary sexual characters, but I'm no expert).

RSS is really an under-rated [largely unknown?] way to keep up with YouTube channels.

YouTube ~used to~ include the RSS links right on channel pages but these days they try and hide 'em (they're still there)

Feedly is my RSS reader of choice and it'll automatically add a channel just from the URL but if you need the actual RSS, they can be found with a little digging.

right-click, 'View Page source', ctrl+F to find 'rssurl' in the page source - it'll be formatted to look something like www·youtube·com/feeds/videos·xml?channel_id=bunchanumbers

Like any RSS feed, when your fav creators update, you'll see it come up close to real time. & you might prefer that over the YouTube home page or notification options.

I have one password that's 99 random characters long, because the 20 character random generated password that my password manager suggested only filled up the security bar by 75%, so I kept increasing the length of the password to see what it would take to fill it up all the way and 99 characters with the longest password it would take and that still didn't register as completely secure....
