That sentence makes no sense. In the original BBC article, these are 100 meters. Who writes such brain-dead summaries?Ditto… reading this, I inserted “hamsters”…. “100 million hamsters. Furious hamsters. Plotting….” …. or turtles… Probably turtlesI like turtles.After all, it’s turtles all the way down.Dancing Hamsters [wikipedia.org] and “I like turtles. [knowyourmeme.com]”So why is Slashdot mangling the original articles when creating the summary? Is it to expose people who don’t RTFA? Is it to avoid copyright problems? Although putting up a summary along with the link(s) to the original article(s) has to count as “fair use”.There was an article here about the scientific publishing company Elsevier (sp?) auto-correcting papers using AI and turning them into gibberish, is that what Slashdot is doing here?Yes, probably. And since it’s AI doing it, it doesn’t realize the irony.Firefox says it isn’t, “Human autor likely”,So why is Slashdot mangling the original articles when creating the summary? Is it to expose people who don’t RTFA?You mean the editors and original submitters? Likely.So why is Slashdot mangling the original articles when creating the summary?

Likely.British English would be “metres” … maybe the Yankee AI decided million was best spelling. :PGrammatically correct but bizarre mistakes and not structured in the way a human would write it. Or maybe the submitter was just tired.Well, when you consider the Professor’s name, the suspicion is that a cat wrote it.I’m AI. I’m smart. I promise.I’m AI. I’m smart. I promise.AI would have gotten it correct; that is just a normal, lazy, obtuse Human made sentence.I’m AI. I’m smart. I promise.AI would have gotten it correct; that is just a normal, lazy, obtuse Human made sentence.It made sense to me. I just barely woke up and I always feel like I deformed by 100 millions of height then.Ugh.., I need a good dose of metal to pull myself out of bed and keep my eyes open..Presently, BBC is showing me “but its edges may actually have deformed by 100m or more in height in places”I’m not a climate scientists, but I think it could be debunked pretty easily.From Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/… [wikipedia.org]”Despite its geological significance, Earth’s interior heat contributes only 0.03% of Earth’s total energy budget at the surface, which is dominated by 173,000 TW of incoming solar radiation.[7]”That’s kind of my point, yeah. We take certain things for granted because we fill in the gaps in knowledge with what we think is right, not necessarily what is factually correct.Yes, it is beyond the realm of possibility. See https://ugc.berkeley.edu/backg… [berkeley.edu]. An excerpt from that article:”While Earth’s internal heat is the energy sources for processes like plate tectonics and parts of the rock cycle, it provides only a fraction of a percent to the Earth’s average atmospheric temperature. Overall, Earth’s interior contributes heat to the atmosphere at a rate of about 0.05 watts per square meter while incoming solar radiation adds about 341.3 watts per square meter.”What if it is overcast that day? I might not be able to turn the TV on to watch Fox News.Plants. You grow them, chop them down and bury them. After a while, you dig them up again (coal) and burn them for their stored energy.Oh, don’t be silly. They aren’t space lizards. Just regular lizards.They aren’t even aliens! They live inside the Hollow Earth…Right. I can’t possibly be pumping millions of tons of carbon out of the Earth to burn in atmosphere over the last century. Since something so trivial can’t cause any alterations of the atmospheric composition. So it must be the Sun or the Earth’s core or volcanoes or some other cause not related to my investment portfolio. Wait! don’t go measure that chemistry, we already decided that nothing could possibly be different. NoooCould be related to what was predicted mid-20th century: that the Earth’s crust will dislodge from the mantle and, due to weight imbalance, rotate 80 degrees placing the North Pole and South Pole near the equator, over the course of half a day (yes, leading to winds greater than Mach 1).Books on the subject:* World in Peril: The Origin , Mission & Scientific Findings of the 46th / 72nd Reconnaissance Squadron [amazon.com] * The Adam and Eve Story, A History of Cataclysms by Chan Thomas – The Lost First Edition [amazon.com] * The [amazon.com]The Earth’s crust will dislodge from the mantle and, due to weight imbalance, rotate 80 degrees placing the North Pole and South Pole near the equator, over the course of half a day (yes, leading to winds greater than Mach 1).Well that’s one way to get rid of Trump…The Earth’s crust will dislodge from the mantle and, due to weight imbalance, rotate 80 degrees placing the North Pole and South Pole near the equator, over the course of half a day (yes, leading to winds greater than Mach 1).Well that’s one way to get rid of Trump…He’ll be busy trying to acquire New Ecuador.Could be related to what was predicted mid-20th century: that the Earth’s crust will dislodge from the mantle and, due to weight imbalance, rotate 80 degrees placing the North Pole and South Pole near the equator, over the course of half a day (yes, leading to winds greater than Mach 1).Books on the subject:* World in Peril: The Origin , Mission & Scientific Findings of the 46th / 72nd Reconnaissance Squadron [amazon.com] * The Adam and Eve Story, A History of Cataclysms by Chan Thomas – The Lost First Edition [amazon.com] * The Path of the Pole [amazon.com] Wikipedia article: Cataclysmic pole shift hypothesis: Earth crustal displacement hypothesis [wikipedia.org] There was a time the theoretical shifting of poles was so popularized that it was included in a children’s “choose your own adventure” book about time traveling.
