"q" is not supported in the latest version of Chrome but is supported in Firefox. I'm debating using it on my site just to get a few headscratchers. Also to play off the weeb factor a bit as a joke. Thanks for introducing it

Some potentially deadly foods are considered a tasty delicacy. See, fugu [0]. Which can be really, really really poisonous [1]. It makes cyanide seem harmless in comparison. Although I just learned from Wikipedia that apparently we figured

Wasn't in the budget to build the park and likely wouldn't get approval for funding if it were. The alternative of an unfunded park is no park . The tickets from people ignoring signs is also additional revenue to the town/s

The number is correct, it's an Australian number [0]. Specifically a FreeCall number following the format: 1800 xxx xxx. Not to be confused with the United State's 1-800-xxx-xxxx format. An easy mistake to make if you didn't

Walk around at 10pm. Just don't walk in the closed park. Is it inconvenient to walk around the park? Sure it is. Should people plan for that, knowing about it? Probably. Do people do so? Usually not. Same thing with jaywalking. It isn&

Possessed by demons/evil. Dead things don't come back - if they do it must be because of evil spirits. That's the general belief at least, upheld by the beliefs of various religions and cultures.

As with many things - fear that the AI will be wrong (no matter how less frequently this happens than with doctors) and a desire for a human to blame if there is a mistake. If a doctor makes a misdiagnosis and kills the patient as a resul

Leaving for more money is not the same as not being motivated by money. If they can make more money for doing the same/similar work it's a matter of weighing any tradeoffs (relocating, potential job stability, etc.) In fact, those

I've been told this more times than I can remember and I always forget about it. Here's hoping this time is different. Thank you for the reminder. It really gets tiresome to type "Chinese characters" all the time, and I

This is strange for me - and now I need to ask my Japanese acquaintances the same questions! I'm able to visualize the Chinese characters I know just fine, and I'm by no means fluent. I speak Japanese instead of Chinese, but I don

Many professions have more `write` than `read`. You're doing more and not needing to keep everything in your head at once in order to understand what you are doing. As a cook you can clear your mind of steps that have already happene
