This is why the fantasy of asking AI to solve global warming will either end up with no benefit (possible) or with us being converted to carbon-neutral paperclips.

According to the Forbes article she later received a postcard in 1993, not that the groping occurred in 1993.

There are infinite prime numbers. This has been known for thousands of years. You can find numerous proofs of this online, and go through them until one makes sense to you.

Also, quantum computers are on track to make division-based cryptography useless in the next decade or two. (Note that this only affects public key cryptography, and not shared key cryptography. So your online backups should be safe as long as you have a password for them.)

Jerry: "Aren't you going to see what the message is?"

George: "Nah."

Kramer: "Why not? It could be important!"

Jerry: "It's not like you to ignore a message..."

George: "Okay, okay! I'll tell you. I was sitting at home."

Jerry: "Doing what?"

George: "Nothing."

Kramer: "Oh yeah! I love doing nothing! I love it!"

Jerry: "Nothing? Sounds boring."

George: "Spoken like an amateur. I have it down to an art."

Kramer: "We should compare notes!"

Jerry: "Anyway, then what happened?"

George: "I get a text from this girl I had lunch with."

Jerry: "Lunch? Like a date? A" lunch date?"

George: "I don't know, I don't know! How can you know? Who suggests lunch when someone asks them out? I don't know, but she did!"

Kramer: "Yikes!"

Jerry: "Okay, so you get this text message."

George: "That's right."

Jerry: "From the lunch maybe date maybe not woman."

George: "That's right."

Jerry: "What does it say?"

George: "What are you doing?"

Jerry: "I'm asking what the message said!"

George: "I know! The message said, 'What are you doing?'"

Jerry: "Ooooo. Okay. And?"

George: "So I sent her a reply, that said 'nothing'."

Kramer: "Classic mistake."

George: "Well I wish I had known! How am I supposed to know?!"

Jerry: "I don't get it. What's the mistake?"

George: "After I told her that I wasn't doing anything, she called me!"

Jerry: "On the phone? What for?"

George: "To talk!"

Jerry: "About what?"

George: "Nothing! I wanted to do nothing, not talk about nothing!"

Kramer: "You got yourself a phone talker."

George: "A phone talker!"

Jerry: "Seems like it. So what are you going to do?"

George: "What can I do? I'm going to have to tell her talking on the phone causes me migraines. It's the only way..."

Kramer and George leave. Jerry sees a message from Elaine that says, "What are you doing?" He puts the phone down.

We'll only know if you try!

If a company has a lot of money in assets and those assets are worth less than before, the valuation of the company drops. This should mean lower share prices, which is basically the only thing a company cares about.

It's the same in the Netherlands, although our bread is shit.

Will you please explain this?

I feel like I understand each sentence but not why you put them together.

Is this fictional? I thought that this was actually true from the Social Union in WWII. Maybe in the battle of Stalingrad?

It's pretty unfriendly not to leave an opening for others to wander in and join the conversation at a party. I've been standing around wondering why I'm there for sure though. Something to keep in mind as you're enthusiastically chatting yourself at some point in the future. 😆

Zoiks! I think we should look for clues....

I think it's an oversimplification to say that it was never enforced:
