The fine folks at <checks notes> FOPEAS would never tarnish their good name by stooping to such a stunt. I mean, we might expect such shenanigans from the likes of SMURGBLOZ, KINSURGE, or GSIROOZ, but not FOPEAS, fine purveyors of `FOPEAS an AI Language Model I do not Have Access to The Context of The SFD You are referring to. Can You Please Provide me with More Information so That I can Assist You Better`

The year is 1900. College-bound nephew says "what's the point of a physics major anymore?" I asked "what do you mean?" and he goes "Newton's Laws".

Each year Kaggle creates a for-fun, Santa-themed optimization problem. This year's is about controlling a robotic arm to efficiently print cards.

The digits of pi contain every pdf that ever could and ever will exist.

Any dog ever would gladly trade a few zaps for a wide open place to explore outside. Cruelty is depriving dogs of exercise and outdoor time and stimulation and the chance to run, not invisible fences.

Same issues here. I dread having to unplug or shutdown my MBP connected to 2 external monitors because it means I'll have to reconfigure the displays.

Yeah, my above comment was not using a text search, hence no "relevant" option (i.e. if you just drilled down the department hierarchy to, say, the TVs department).

> the core need, is that you want control over the model that Amazon is using to sort what you see and to have some input on what that looks like

Indeed, but I'm not even looking to have that much granular control over it. I just want "sort by rating, but toss out all the obscure crap that has 1 or 2 ratings, because that rating is meaningless."

Anyone here have thoughts on why, all these years later, Amazon still doesn't have a sort option along the lines of these proposals? It seems like such an easy win and an easy technical change. Do they have some business reason not to change their default sort?

Nothing warms our icy, cold, statistical hearts quite like hearing that a randomly chosen person is near the median. <3
