Just had a cousin explain an AI application that she swears really helps alternative learners.

Baryonic Matter is the "normal" matter that makes up everything we can see and touch, like stars, planets, animals, and people. It's made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons – and comprises less than 5% of the known Universe.

This reality has not set in yet.
