Or in this case, In MBAs
The referenced paper might be more valuable if it addressed useful members of society :-)

I don't have a problem with alcohol, I'm just a shocial drinkerr; no it's OK, I'll get up off the floor in a minute ,,,

Who on earth would tell a Chinese AI that they're a member of Falun Gong, especially in the context of asking for some lines of code?

Norwegians don't have special EV's - they have cars from Tesla, Jaguar and other manufacturers who are well aware of the issue, and incorporate battery pack heating systems, and sophisticated charging controls. The I-Pace uses a heat exchanger for warming both the battery and the cabin - before a long journey in cold temperatures you connect the car to the charger and "Pre-condition" it using mains power. Yes, there's a significant but not drastic drop in range; it's still enough for a long trip. I've not tried charging mine in cold weather at a rapid charger, but I'm sure the charging controls will use some of the power to heat the battery, as otherwise it wouldn't be able to accept the charge.

The brewers want foamy beer - more foam = more air = less beer.= more profit
It's like having ice in your Coke - more ice = less Coke = more profit
In the good old times in the UK if your beer had too much head you could demand a top-up to get a proper pint. Then some fool of a judge said the head was part of the pint.

The key point is that English planning laws include far too many ways to object to something. The water suppliers have wanted a huge reservoir near Oxford for decades, but each time they come up with a plan it gets cancelled by the government or a public enquiry or a judicial review. That way everyone (by which I mean politicians) win - there's a solution but it get cancelled by the will of the people, so no votes lost in the area around Oxford.

You've obviously not been to the UK in the last 10 years or more, and you didn't pay attention when you did last come. The old urinals only flushed periodically - the cistern filled slowly through a slightly-open tap, and flushed when the water level caused the siphon to operate. But anyway, they've virtually all gone and been replaced by unflushed urinals with plastic caps over the outlet that are supposed to keep the ammonia back.

Jaques Tati's M. Hulot and Rowan Atkinson's Mr Bean show it's possible to be funny without any words. Ditto all the silent movie greats such as Harold Lloyd, Buster Keaton and Charlie Chaplin. All the above work around the world.

I guess the problem for a modern comedian is finding someone it's safe to make fun of. W. C. Fields was challenged to make an acceptable funny sketch with a blind man as the butt of the jokes. He succeeded - your favourite search engine will locate it.

then it should be based on population, not area. Google tells me that's a cartogram. The results make Chine and India huge, and the UK, Japan and Indonesia much larger than any of the projections.

We had only 14,400 bps modems, and our Da' would thrash us to within an inch of our lives for watching porn.
You had it rich, we had only 1200/75 modems, and had to peer at porn GIFs through a magnifying glass.
We had it tough - our modem was a 300 bps acoustic coupler, and our porn was overprinted on 14"x11" line-flow paper.
Tell that to the kids these days and they'd never believe you.

No worries, you'll never get around to finishing it. :-)

AFAIK the dreams where you have difficulty walking correlate with your legs flailing about in the bed - you're actually trying to walk, but the sheets get in the way, and this feeds into the dream.

I can't go on using Linux, there's no longer the cachet, and worse, my friends will start expecting me to give free technical support like anyone with a PC in the '80s.

You forgot Chairman Mao's Cultural Revolution.

Steam powered, made of rosewood with brass hinges.
The advantage of steam is you just need a supply of coal and a nearby stream; no messing with power banks to keep it running.
