I love how I opened it and my brain tickled. Then I closed it, opened it again and saw that this is AI generated.
I tell you, good pattern recognition is a blessing and a curse. Blessing because you see all of this immediately after some unconscious training, curse because you’re extremely susceptible to conspiracy theories…
It's a convention for writing checks. If the dollar amount on a check read "300.00$" there's nothing stopping me from writing "1300.00$" on there. But if you put "$300.00" that number is enclosed on both sides and there is no chance of being able to modify it (without significantly more effort that can be much more easily noticed)
