That's mildly terrifying. But the difference between the burger and the picture is well proven.

I guess we can start thanking people posting photographs of their food on social media. There you probably still have higher probability of seeing photographs of real food as served rather than fake food as photographed by professional photographers.

The bigger the following, the less that's true.

Yeah I could hear whichever I decided. Though sometimes it would take a couple of efforts to ‘switch’.

Old story, but there is a world record for the 100 m while running on all four limbs.
Was reading an article where someone said that it would be possible that by 2050 or so, someone could set a world record for the 100 m by using 4 limbs instead of 2 limbs. Much more efficient to do so.
(I lost the article so will see if I can find it again)

That's cool. Certainly there is plenty of precedent for people figuring out new ways of engaging in sporting events. Basketball shots have changed drastically in their form over the years, then there's the Foosebury Flop in the high jump. I'm sure there are more subtle examples in any sport. Athletes don't instinctively know the most efficient ways to do what they do, but they can be taught, especially if it's from scratch and they don't have to relearn anything.
