I spent almost an hour parsing the new CFR regulations for agave spirits due to a comma existing in one section but not in another despite nearly identical language otherwise, plus the sheer volume of "If ..." with only an implied "then ..", which places the "then" differently based on the commas!

Is "vibe entrepreneurship" already a phrase? Because assuming the market wants what you're selling merely because it vibed good to you personally to build it seems endemic.

Moden physics hasn't figured out yet that all of material reality is just how discrete structures interact, evolve and undergo phase transitions under spacial geometry constraints.

I am planting this flag now, today: The entire edifice of modern theoretical physics is built on the demand that reality conform to chalk marks on a blackboard despite overwhelming evidence that reality does not and has not ever acquiesced to such a demand.
From Wikipedia: The Treachery of Images (French: La Trahison des images) is a 1929 painting by Belgian surrealist painter René Magritte. It is also known as This Is Not a Pipe, Ceci n'est pas une pipe and The Wind and the Song.[ It is on display at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.

The painting shows an image of a pipe. Below it, Magritte painted, "Ceci n'est pas une pipe" (pronounced [sə.si ne paz‿yn pip], French for "This is not a pipe".)
