The Report of the Committee Appointed by the Royal Society to Consider of the Best Method of Adjusting the Fixed Points of Thermometers; And of the Precautions Necessary to Be Used in Making Experiments with Those Instruments

Seems fancy and legit, I see no reason to actually read it and confirm the info.

I like this version better than "he had a fever when he measured 100 degrees" so I will choose to believe it without further research.

I hope you are correct.

It's just a really big coincidence that god happens to want all the exact same things they want and when their book explicitly says otherwise (taxing the rich, being generally kind to people) it's actually a deeply convoluted metaphor for actually doing exactly what they wanted in the first place. Isn't god "great"?

As long as they don't fuck it up in a similar fashion to seemingly every other thing they have tried for a couple decades.

I largely agree. Whether or not something "is art" is almost entirely subjective. But I can literally tell an LMM to "make an art" without any actual direction and it will make something. Does that make it less a work of art? It kind of feels like it to me. But if I ask that 50 times and then pick the one I like best, does that change it's artistic 'value'? I can collect a pile of rocks I think look cool and the collection could certainly be considered artistic, and collages are a thing, so there is certainly a lot of gray area there.

I like to think of art as more an activity that an object. If I experience it and it makes me feel things, it is art. If I create something based on my internal feelings, it is art. Maybe art is just the feelings we generate along the way?

Assuming it takes its answer from search results, and the search results are all affiliate marketing sites that just want you to click on a link and buy something, this makes perfect sense.
