In the vast majority of European countries you'd be facing a panel of judges or a judge led inquisitorial system going over the facts and evidence, rather than the adversarial with a jury where witnesses and experts are actively attacked by barristers for the prosecution & defence.

Love it when someone complains in an email that it took 4 days to address the comments on a peer review when they sent it on Friday after I left for the day & I addressed them Monday when I returned to work. I kindly pointed out they had the report since 30th Oct breaching SOPs 14 day turnaround.

I love tricking Ai to create what it's not supposed to do. Sliding past all those moderating filters for the online versions. When it doesn't get the human condition or understands anything out of the bounds of it. 🎣🐟

Enhancement of an unknown woman by Autochrome photographer Gustav Gain in Normandy 1910. The colours are still there, but due to the potato starch grains used during the process it has faded greatly. For a low light shot like this she would have had to stay still for 8 seconds +

"Time to wake up, sweetheart" kiss on forehead.
"Urgh. I'm coming"
10 mins later I find her wrapped in place not moved.
"Time to get up, Saffy Duck" grabs duvet & walks away with it.
"No, no, no! Argh, it's cold!" She reaches for her blanket. I take that too. "I'm up, dad. I'm up! I hate Mondays"

Just experimenting with enhancing Autochrome shot of Christina Elizabeth Frances Bevan, who would have been 16 when the photo were taken in Dorset in 1912.
Photographer Mervyn O'Gorman. I used an instruction to generate a 125thsec image rather than one that would have taken two seconds+ back then

A friend who teaches theology shared with me a post about CS Lewis's Mere Christianity, which discusses foundational Christian logic across denominations. It reminded me of Dale's tweet below, and I wanted to share some thoughts here regarding modesty and respectability, which are often hot topics.
