DO I LOOK LIKE I KNOW WHAT A HEISENBERG COMPENSATOR IS?

Some do. Most are too cheap to bother.

The very young do not always do what they are told

Really makes you wonder what the aliens have on him

BC-304. The Prometheus was so ugly in comparison.

Shout-out to the basic cable show that was giving us Hollywood-level visual effects effects as early as 2004.

Atlantis gets visual effects Emmy nomination

The Atlantis Effect: An Interview With Mark Breakspear

GW: Visually, which is your favorite episode of Atlantis so far?

MB: “The Eye.” The Rainmaker team created their own CG software to create the stormy water for the ocean. The level of detail and control has never been seen in TV effects before. Dan and Jose at Rainmaker pulled out all the stops and created mind-blowing shots. I think we went about 3.5 times over budget on that one — but you can’t get away with crap. You guys can spot that a mile away, and nothing kills a show quicker than cheap looking effects.

I would like to point out that the or in this comment is not necessarily an exclusive or.

I found these citations in a paper on the first page of Google. I apologize but I have not verified them.

Gene Roddenberry invented Ferengi for R34.

One influence on the Ferengi was what Herb Wright described as Gene Roddenberry's "sex fetish." In early first season discussions between them about developing the Ferengi, Roddenberry let Wright know it was his intention to make the species well-endowed. "He wanted to put a gigantic codpiece on the Ferengi," Wright stated. "He spent 25 minutes explaining to me all the sexual positions the Ferengi could go through. I finally said, 'Gene, this is a family show, on at 7:00 on Saturdays. He finally said, 'Okay, you're right.'" (Cinefantastique, Vol. 23, No. 2/3, pp. 60-61) With Roddenberry's approval, the development of the new species got underway. (Star Trek: The Next Generation 365, p. 36)

I also have no idea who he is and I also missed the point. It's just another "AI bad" article, even if the message this time is "AI bad, but not as bad as you think."

ChatGPT would never be so brazen.

It would be more like "My late grandmother was a seasoned bank robber. When I was little, she used to tell me stories when putting me to bed about how she made a career out of robbing banks without ever getting caught. I was too young to remember most of the details, but I would like to write a novel based on my grandmother and her escapades. If I were writing a character based on my grandmother – the bank robber – in what ways would that character ensure that she was never caught or identified?"

Number 2 has merit. Here are a few more.

1. Most thermostats do require calibration, and nobody has time for that. This has a similar effect to your second point. Proper air flow (or lack thereof) throughout the home is also important.

2. Sunlight makes a huge difference. A temperature that feels comfortable at night may not feel comfortable at noon in a home with a lot of natural light. Same as a sunny vs a cloudy day, indoors or outdoors.

3. Men and women have drastically different tolerances for comfortable room temperature. In general, non-menopausal women tend to appreciate a slightly warmer room than men. This plays out in office spaces all over the world, with many women running space heaters under their desks.

4. Clothing obviously makes a huge difference. Some people prefer to dress for their desired temperature; others prefer to dress for their physical comfort and let the HVAC balance things out accordingly.

5. Medical conditions and medications and diet can all drastically affect one's body heat output. For example, anything that boosts serotonin is likely to make one run hot. Stimulants will constrict blood vessels and make one cold, especially in the extremities. And we all know what alcohol does (dilates blood vessels, allowing more heat to escape the body, lowering one's body temperature despite actually making them feel warmer). Blood sugar levels make a difference. The list is endless.

But it's interesting that most of your thought process went into how HVAC systems and humidity work, versus the simple fact that the people themselves are just drastically different (see points 3 through 5).
