AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around the absence of the "solve"-button feature in the current version of vBulletin used by the forums. Users express a desire for its return, highlighting that it contributes to a tidier forum appearance and aids both regular and non-regular helpers. Currently, there is no indication that the feature will be reintroduced until a future update of the software. The community values the "solve"-button for its organizational benefits. Overall, the return of this feature remains uncertain.

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...
