AI Thread Summary
The "ignore user" feature appears to be missing from the drop-down menu when clicking on a user's name, leading to questions about its removal in recent updates. Users have noted that while they rarely used the feature, it was beneficial on occasion. Despite the absence of the ignore option, the "ignore list" remains accessible through the "My PF" section. This indicates that while the direct feature may be gone, users can still manage ignored accounts. The discussion highlights concerns about changes in user interface options.

Got it, thanks.

I want to thank those members who interacted with me a couple of years ago in two Optics Forum threads. They were @Drakkith, @hutchphd, @Gleb1964, and @KAHR-Alpha. I had something I wanted the scientific community to know and slipped a new idea in against the rules. Thank you also to @berkeman for suggesting paths to meet with academia. Anyway, I finally got a paper on the same matter as discussed in those forum threads, the fat lens model, got it peer-reviewed, and IJRAP...
About 20 years ago, in my mid-30s (and with a BA in economics and a master's in business), I started taking night classes in physics hoping to eventually earn the science degree I'd always wanted but never pursued. I found physics forums and used it to ask questions I was unable to get answered from my textbooks or class lectures. Unfortunately, work and life got in the way and I never got further the freshman courses. Well, here it is 20 years later. I'm in my mid-50s now, and in a...
