@Gokul_Sahni Hypothetically say another round of IND-PAK fisticuffs erupts, does PAK invoke collective defence and would it draw in NATO? I think in CENTO days they tried to draw in CENTO partners but nothing came of it. Ergo can you daisy chain collective defence clauses between alliances?

@EGEC_geothermal Is there a monitored email address for registration queries? The one listed online for a group booking discount is invalid, emails just bounce.

@TheBrianMcManus I'd be here for a video going into the nuts and bolts of the ways around BoP regulations in WEC

I'm just glad that the drop down menu on UK Govt online forms will no longer have the British Indian Ocean Territory option when I type in India. All about the marginal gains.

With the UK set to lose Chagos in the Indian Ocean, the sun will soon finally set on the British empire

@cuternetes @Falcon87456 @PinstripeBungle Chip Wars by Chris Miller covers this story well, how we have Pentagon funding to thank for the birth and initial growth of the semiconductor industry.

As a child it shocked me the sheer contempt my grandmother had for Churchill when I was reading his Horrible Histories. That was the first I'd heard of the Bengal Famine.
I'm really pleased @kavpuri is preserving these stories. They bear remembering.

@CamUniCampop blog #11: Famine tropes in European fairy tales (Hansel & Gretel) are absent from English, due to early disappearance of famine in England. Romola Davenport attritutes this to agricultural modernisation, economic integration and poor laws

Today's @CamUniCampop blog explains how across most of British history the most common age at adult death was around 70, even though life expectancy was below 40. By Jim Oeppen and Romola Davenport @CamUniGeography https://t.co/AIRAETxslp

Today is World Population Day; coincidentally @camunicampop was born exactly 60 years ago! To celebrate we've launched a roughly weekly blog: 60 things you didn't know about family, marriage, work and death since the middle ages https://t.co/xXPW04PEZv @Cambridge_Uni

I think it's clear that this politically unstable country cannot look after its artefacts. We should remove them to a safer place and display them in a proper museum where everyone can see them

@TheAviationist I see DARPA hasn't forgotten what those manta rays did to Steve Irwin

@timrifts Dairy. Dairy is one of the few things I refuse to accept any other country does better than the UK. If there's one thing you're allowed to burst into rule Britannia for, do it for the dairy. But only blue top. Green is a necessary sin. Red top can get in the bin.

@WatchNebula @SquidgeRugby maybe?

@timrifts Watched a 15 minute video on how it's all 3D x-rays and basically a density coefficient they use to tell the different fluids apart now. They've apparently had the tech for checked luggage for years, just couldn't miniaturise it to fit in security check areas till now
