I keep forgetting that, in today's world, people would even need to ask Siri or Cortana whether they are thirsty.

- pbhjpbhj 10y agoOT: It's a complete aside but humour me. IME people can mistake thirst for hunger - one thinks one is very hungry but drinking some water (or other drink) and the feeling of hunger subsides, not scientific but there seems to be something in it. I wonder if there is some test for an optimum hydration level that a computer could do (visually?) or indeed if in a few decades we'll be monitored so closely in our actions in our homes (or at least those of us who are rich will) that Son-of-Siri will be telling us we should have a drink. Probably Microsoft/Apple/Google/Buy&Large will be getting back-room deals to get their intelligent companions to order specific brands of drink for us and make recommendations when we're not quite thirsty that we need a drink "how about a Buy&Large cola"!!?
