Kagi Small Web has been fun to explore and reminds me a bit of the StumbleUpon of yore: https://kagi.com/smallweb

You can still get to product reviews directly and search them. Here's an example:

Product page (copy the identifier at the end): https://www.amazon.com/Long-Thanks-Hitchhikers-Guide-Galaxy-...

Review page (paste the identifier at the end): https://www.amazon.com/product-reviews/B001OF5F1E/

This seems to bypass all of the LLM stuff for now.

It does mention Kowloon:

> [...] in nearly every other respect both the imagery and soulful mood depicted in the film mirror reality very closely – especially when contrasting the modern skyscrapers of Central with some of the older neighbourhoods in Sheung Wan and Kowloon.

As others noted, it does happen and is called a human challenge trial. In fact, here's one for malaria that's currently accepting signups.

There's another neat example of this: asking someone with years of car-driving experience to hold their hands out as if gripping a steering wheel and mime the motions necessary to change lanes. [1] The steps are:

1. Turn the steering wheel towards the lane you wish to enter,

2. Re-center the steering wheel,

3. Counter-steer the same amount as in step 1.

Step 3 is what people tend to forget about.
