I must’ve done the install wrong. This is what I’ve got, directory-wise. “pip install -e .” doesn’t work in either of those directories— “…does not appear to be a Python project”

I receive these disinformational texts about once/week. I always block the number, but it doesn’t help. Is there some way I can cost the sender time and/or 💰 without inadvertently giving them information?

well, there you have it: sperm are faster than Usain Bolt. thanks, AI! 🤦♂️
![An [incorrect or at least misleading] AI-generated answer to the question “how fast can sperm swim?” states: “Sperm can swim at speeds of about 28 miles per hour (45 kilometers per hour) at the moment of ejaculation, but their actual movement within the female reproductive system is typically slower, often taking 15 to 45 minutes to reach the egg.” Below this answer is the following disclaimer: “Auto-generated based on listed sources.

While I was doing yard work for a few hours, the canine took inventory of his collection. I have no idea where he had hidden these 15 balls, but apparently he keeps track… 🤷♂️ #dogs
