As promised, a thread on (Bavarian) German christmas bakery. 'Tis the season, after all. One of the oldest examples popular in southern Germany and Austria is the Kletzenbrot. Kletzen are dried pears and the rural population would add the dried pears to their bread during advent. Any sweetness 🍜

I put in a freedom of information request for her register of interests, which would reveal if she owns OpenAI shares. The government refused to share it, claiming it contains ‘personal information’.
For context, the PM’s previous AI Adviser’s register of interests *was* published.

We got chatting to a guy in a cafe a few years ago and he said he lives in Schwabenland but was originally from Dresden, and moved in 1979. My husband said 'Huh? 10 years before the Wende?'
'Yes', said the man, 'My family escaped from the DDR in a small airplane'.

Interesting perspective on the two terms of the Irish president Michael D Higgins, which end tonight.
Perhaps the most popular Irish man in Ireland, he has used his office to speak for the nation & for social justice. His successor has big shoes to fill, & is also a socialist. A good read:

Among them were people waving "Adult Human Female" flags.
