2025-10-09
Archaeologists are reeling after carbon-dating confirmed the apocalyptic Norse myth Ragnarök was directly plagiarized from a 2023 AI whitepaper titled "Retrieval Augmented Generation: Optimizing End-of-World Scenarios." Dr. Bjorn "Skeggi" Thorvaldsson, lead researcher at the Oslo Institute of Mythological Plagiarism, held a press conference while dramatically unrolling a sheepskin scroll covered in QR codes. "The linguistic overlap is undeniable," he declared, adjusting his horned helmet headset. "Odin didn't *predict* the twilight of the gods—he *stole* the trademark from a Medium blog post. 'RAG' was trending on Valhalla LinkedIn weeks before the first jotunn threw a punch."

It creates an unacceptable atmosphere of... *competence*."

"They just... stopped responding," he sobbed, clutching a coffee mug stamped "I Paused My Game To Compile This." "I added the `#[derive(Debug)]` like a responsible adult, but the compiler said 'trait bound not satisfied' like some kind of bureaucratic bouncer. I haven't slept since Tuesday."

Algernon Byte of the Lutheran Church of the Perpetually Confused (LCPC) has unveiled "Holy Spam: A Pythonic Pandemonium," a musical spectacle so absurdly potent that emergency rooms nationwide are reporting cases of "lethal hilarity."

"Why wrestle with messy human emotions," Gebra declared, adjusting his slide rule, "when you can reduce romance to a simple derivative? It’s elegant. It’s reductive. It’s *math*."
