But do you really want to be the one that signs up for the study that determines that the medicine you have been taking for your condition is not actually working anymore?

Maybe then, the placebo effect takes over. "I have taken the medicine, and it's working".

Some placebo is so strong that it works even if you don't believe in it.

Salt is good at collecting humidity. And anything coming with it. Living things are not much a problem, but all else can be.

I guess that is because if every customer did, the load on their customer support would most likely increase.

Real programmers don’t read any manual.😂😂😂

If at first you do not succeed, try and try again. Then dig the manual out of the garbage.

Can someone please fill me in?
(You don't have to...I am just requesting )
Every so often I see a post in the Lounge, titled "Wordle <number>".
What is that? Why is one posted each day (just out of curiosity) and what _is_ a Wordle, anyways?

Wordle is a web based game from the NY Times. You have 6 tries to guess a 5 letter word. The game tableau shows which letters in your guess are correct but in the wrong location and correct and in the correct location as well as indicating incorrect letters (by color). You can only play one puzzle per day.
After success or failure you can save to your results to the clipboard to share. The results don't show your actual guesses, just which positions had a correct letters. Colors indicate correct or incorrect guesses and position. You can create a NYT account to track your stats over time.
The wordle posts in the lounge are the shared results of various users each day.

Quote: AI in action here in never-never land:
07:30AM (left pond): Power goes out.
11:30 AM: against my better judgement, I call FPL (power company). All responses from digital.
Auto response: We are aware of an outage in your area, affecting 10 customers. The problem is a transformer, we are very sorry, blah, blah, etc. We estimate that the outage will be resolved by 1:15. Would you like us to send updates?
Me (I will never learn): Sure.
4 trucks now on my street.
2:15: Still no power, no updates. Foolishly (I am an old fool), I call again. Same mumbo-jumbo but now "we have no estimate of the resolution time". Trucks are gone.
3:15. Power comes back on.
Voicemails,text:
4:41: This is your update from FPO [sic], our resolution specialist is on the scene and determining the cause of the outage.
4:43: This is your update from FBI [sic], calling to confirm that power is now back on. The cause of the outage was:
(different voice) "we are sorry, an application error has occurred. Goodbye". FBI? Hmmm.
I suggested that they connect to CP and ask for some codez.

It’s weird being the same age as old people. Live every day like it is your last; one day, it will be.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

4:45: This is your update from FPL, calling to inform that the application error caused a wrong message to be sent to you. We apologize for that. We get to understand that the power has not yet been restored. The issue has been escalated to a higher level. Will be attended to shortly.
Meanwhile, the reality is that power has already been restored.

Hmm
Is the the person to whom I am speaking?
