Also, it seem to believe that “Mandelbrot effect” can refer to the Mandelbrot set. I've never hard that before. I assume it's just the system absolutely wanting to have something to say.

So, apparently, Gemini isn't very good at recognising puns.

You know these glass jars with glass stoppers that use the friction of ground glass to provide a seal? They're really cool, I wish we'd use them more.

I got me some Nancy Drew book a few months back. The first four ones (out of a measly 613…). The edition I got has absolutely gorgeous covers (because a book is also an object). The attached picture is the cover of the collection's case.
I did rather like them, it's fun.

The beauty of word2vec.
I like playing Pedantix https://cemantix.certitudes.org/pedantix (colleagues showed it to me and I was hooked). It makes you guess a redacted Wikipedia page, using a word2vec embedding to estimate that you found a close enough word. Sometimes it yields hints like this.

I've watched two Nancy Drew movies. Nancy Drew (2007) https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0479500/ , Nancy Drew and the hidden Staircase (2019) https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8323104/ . The 2019 film tries to be much more modern but ends up being a bit weak.
