I was buying some edibles a few weeks ago and the guy behind the counter told me this cheap brand was infused with “nano technology.” I laughed a hearty laugh and replied, “I’m sorry, did you just say those are infused with nano technology?” He looked me right in the eye and said, “yes.” I bought the $6, ‘nano technology infused’ edibles lol!
I’ve kind of understood “dealer” to be someone who sells illegal drugs, and “budtender” to be someone who works the counter at a legal dispensary. I dunno for sure, I don’t actually encounter these concepts often.
It does seem kind of silly, I mean we already have words that describe people who work in stores. On the other hand, it’s specific and easily understood from the first hearing.
oh my god! it’s a real word. I thought it was a typo. I have never heard of it before, since Marijuana is not legal where I live. I learned something. Thanks.
Pedantic. When people say micro-scale/nano-scale they mean “measured in micrometers/nanometers”. So a nanoparticle is a particle with a size that makes nanometers the most convenient unit.

I overheard a budtender say that at my local dispensary too lol. Must be a marketing incentive.
“budtender” is that what we call weed dealers now?

A dealer is Packer and a budtender is Dwight.
It doesn’t surprise me to learn that the guy at the weed shop doesn’t know WTF he’s talking about.
Nobody at the dispensary knows anything about marijuana. You just get the same canned responses with every question.
This is how the gray goo end of the world happens. Nano tech infused weed brownies.
I mean, he /could/ be right. He probably isn’t but he could be.
Nano technology doesn’t refer exclusively to like nano robots it could also just be infused with nano particles of something.
Well, there’s a lot of particles that are “nano” in size. And “nano” isn’t a size; nano is a unit prefix.
Even the earth is smaller than 1 nano parsec. So the meaning is irrelevant when earth is a nano “particle” (on the parsec scale).
Meaningless jibber jabber.
Thank you for the pointless pedantry
Pointless pedantry is a specialty of mine. I’m happy to be appreciated.
