Bug Why Doesn't PF Mobile Parse Links in Attributed Quotes?

AI Thread Summary
PF Mobile does not automatically parse URLs in attributed quotes, leading to issues with link visibility. This lack of parsing can potentially compromise privacy, especially in small communities where information may identify individuals. The URL formatting may confuse the system, as links are parsed correctly in plain text and un-attributed quotes. Users have tested the same link, confirming it works outside of attributed contexts. The discussion highlights a need for improved functionality in PF Mobile regarding link parsing.

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...

Thread 'Thank you physics forums, 20 years later'

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...
