I'm not sure you can say that the police "don't even think it's their job" (at least from the article).

Cripes. Below equates to CAD 4,700 or so. VAT should be added at 20% but if it's part of a solar install, VAT is waived. Sounds like we're damned lucky.

In the pub last night, a long discussion about the fallibility of AI with someone who told me it's OK. Between us we came up with a question to ask my phone.
I rest my case. Never, ever, trust AI answers. (I'm almost certain this answer isn't accurate.)

Just read a Wikipedia page on periskovite solar panels. I feel far more stupid than I did before reading it.

I don't have the maths to prove something my physics teacher said in a throwaway moment so I'll ask you. Was he right to say that if that's the case, then a photon travelling on a path tangential to the sun's surface would, at a distance equal to the radius of the sun, be diverted by gravity by 6km?
