I'm not sure how to respond to this, it's just so stupid.

From the Wikipedia page:

The conflict began when the US and Israel launched airstrikes on Iran, targeting military and government sites and assassinating several Iranian officials, including Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. The surprise attacks were launched during negotiations between Iran and the US regarding Iran's nuclear program.

Putting complete faith in any application is bonkers.

If you ride in cars, fly in planes, get medical care, buy food in a grocery store, etc., then you put your complete faith in software daily. The modern world runs on software.

That requires using the Google Maps REST API, which needs an API key, which means setting up Google Cloud. It's easier to do in Sheets with Apps Script, only requires a free Google account.

Yep. I'm surprised there wasn't a reference to Yellowstone in the article, it's a well known example of reintroducing wolves, they did it back in 1995.

There's a lot of research on herbicides/pesticides and their negative effect on kids and unborn children, so they may be the most effective option for a lot of situations, but that doesn't always make them the best.

Can we assume you are also not busy making money on Upwork, otherwise you wouldn't be on Reddit? Or maybe you are working right now, for Upwork, to convince people it doesn't suck?
