Glass acts like an extremely viscous liquid - if left for long enough it will slump.
I thought that idea had been refuted. Wikipedia says:
The notion that glass flows to an appreciable extent over extended periods of time is not supported by empirical research or theoretical analysis

There's also the theory that the small scale convection currents created by a temperature difference between the black and white stripes makes it harder for flies to land.
My neighbour burns more car tyres than I do so I should concentrate on getting him to stop but carry on as usual myself?
1:15ish, the drone flys quickly into the action as the baby bear nears the top shortening the distance by at least half if not 3/4 in a couple of seconds. It seems clear to me that the mother can see the drone coming at them at speed. She looks repeatedly at the camera to her baby and back again. As the drone gets quite close she swipes at her baby to get it out the path of an unknown danger.
Lets look at some numbers. If it was very far away as you think then that's what? 300m? And lets be conservative with my figures and say it traveled 2/3rds of the distance in 3 seconds then that's 237kph or 147mph. That's unrealistic. The top speed of an average drone is around 50mph. At that speed it would have been 100m out and traveled 66m in 3 seconds.
But that's top speed, lets say it was moving at 20mph, that puts it 40m out and zooming in to around 13meters.
So, something you don't understand making a loud buzzing coming at you. Remember because of the doppler effect, the noise will increase in volume and pitch as it gets closer. Which would you prefer? 50mph and stopping 33meters/yards from the most precious person in your life in a dangerous situation or coming at you at 20 mph and pulling up around 13meters/yards?
This kind of corporate jargon gets right up my nose. She didn't reach out to google, she contacted them. Reached out is such an over emotively laden phrase for "Emailed" or "Phoned" or "Visited reception and was escorted out the building".
Stop using it!
