Is this AI generated? I see you've produced multiple graphics and 16 chapters in the span of only a few hours.

> In 2000, less than one percent lived on farms and 1% of workers are in agriculture. That was a net benefit to the world, that we all don't have to work to eat.

Not obvious

> To me that statement is as obvious as "water is wet".

Well... is water *wet* or does it *wet things*? So not obvious either.

I'm really dubious when reading posts posing some things as obvious or trivial. In general they are not.

MrSandingMan··on Ask HN: Why do you use AI for coding?
I'm asking questions because I wanna challenge some biases I have. You believe that you already know the ("obvious"?) answers, good for you?
MrSandingMan··on The surprising economics of the meat industry
I can't verify the claim "The feed conversion ratio for chickens, the amount of grain you put in to get meat out, is 2x. That grain is incredibly cheap.".

Instead I found: "2.51 kg of dietary protein is required to generate 1.00 kg of protein in a chicken carcass or saleable end product." [1]

If we're talking about efficiency, let's directly eat grain, then, leave the chicken alone.
