Cover songs versus the original track, which ones are better?
If there is ever a Best Rock Guitar Solo poll this will get votes. Gramps does it his own way while staying faithful to the orig. I used to think the lyric was "you can still buy a house baby, by the riverside." -

Social media is not a free speech zone. All they have to do is say it "violates" their terms of use. Youtube has already turned against AI content. I have heard complaints from a number of channels who say they were falsely banned for being AI.- Hornbein

They include AI narrators which almost everyone uses and which I feel are harmless. It's not easy to become a professional-sounding narrator. I think AI use is a useful thing. The problem is the flood of bad content.- Hornbein

Undergrad Sound waves on the Sun
I don't believe any such idealized sound waves circumnavigate the Sun. The big vibrations in the Sun are 3D Bessel functions. Here on Earth we have 2D Bessel functions in drum heads. Then there are Rossby waves. I suppose Tegmark was making a pedagogical example and wasn't trying to be...- Hornbein

Undergrad "Scientists have measured space to be flat to high accuracy"
It might have been better to call it "straight space", because if not influenced by anything light goes in a straight line. Or maybe "parallel space", because two such beams of light that start out parallel remain parallel and the same distance apart. Or Euclidean space, because this is what... -
