China's High Speed Rail network has now surpassed 50,000 KM in length after opening 4 new lines. The country plans to hit 60,000 KM by 2030.
Spain is the #2 country in HSR length, with approx 5,000 KM.
Map below is a year out of date but shows how the network has evolved since 2008.

The new Turing test, ask a diverse enough set of question such that only an AI would possibly confidently know the answers (some white males might be assumed to be an AI by this test and that's okay)

Why do I have so many types of soap?
Hand soap, body soap, face soap, dish soap, clothes soap, teeth soap, bathroom soap (to remove other soap), general purpose soap (for cleaning surfaces, why not call it surface soap?).

In the early 2000s it was illegal to export a playstation from the US to Iran because the graphics processor was too good at processing missile trajectories.
Every few years Silicon Valley pretends to be detached from the Pentagon, overlooking that the entire commercial computing boom was an offshoot of the missile industry.
