Do you always book a hotel by the airport just in case you miss you flight? Or am I the only
Ah... leaving home 6 hours before departure is something different... depending on where, time etc.. In the past, when departing from London on an early AM flight, we've got down there the night before so we don't have to wake up at 4am etc... But... thats all a bit different from getting to the airpot 4 hours early. With Bangkok Traffic - I have to plan a little... on a good run I can get to the airport in 20mins - usually its about 30-35mins and at worst its 45mins... never an hour.... so its fairly predicable. If something catastrophic happens, and I miss the flight - then thats just hard luck... I think aiming to get to the airport (Suvarnabumi) allows 'me' enough of a safety barrier - thats also aided by Thai Elite and fast track through the airport too... Lots of time saved when travelling through the airport so frequently. I can understand someone wanted to get there 3 hours early, just incase... longer than that seems excessive (just IMO of course - its entirely up to you... I'm just interested in the justification from a sociological perspective thats all). -

Photos of destruction as a result of the incompetent world leader & his party
OK, You are challenging me to explain thermodynamics in layman terms. Here goes: There are four thermodynamic laws. The ones that apply most to our lives are #1 and #2. Global warming is the Second Law of Thermodynamics in operation. Climate change is an example of the First Law of Thermodynamics. The laws of thermodynamics have no escape clauses. They are as immutable as Muslims believe the Koran is, and as unavoidable as the fact the sun rises in the east, and sets in the west. Yet if I was to ask randomly selected persons to explain their understanding of the laws of thermodynamics without resorting to Google, I guarantee over 99% of the people would look blank. Similarly, I would be drawing blanks if I asked people what albedo and clathrates are, and how they can affect the rate of climate change. All the facts and evidence point towards global warming resulting from human activity, principally the burning of fossil fuels. I’m annoyed because I trained for 4 years to be a scientist, then worked for almost 50 years in that capacity, and in research. I think I can be deemed to be impartial, as I have never received research funding for anything related to climate science. It’s absurd to think I am part of a global conspiracy. The Second Law of Thermodynamics, in layman terms, states heat cannot pass from a colder body to a hotter body without work. When carbon dioxide and other gases such as methane absorb solar radiation, those molecules re-radiate solar energy as heat. The so-called greenhouse effect. That heat has to go somewhere. It flows into the colder oceans, with a corresponding rise in temperature. Global warming. The First Law of Thermodynamics, in layman terms, states all forms of energy are interchangeable. When we drive cars, we are exchanging the chemical energy in gasoline for heat and kinetic energy. Similarly, turning on a TV converts electrical energy to light and sound. Any meteorologist will tell you the higher the temperature of a body of water is, the more intense the wind velocity will be. The First Law of Thermodynamics, the conversion of heat energy to kinetic energy. Climate change. What concerns scientists most in this time is the potential for a “butterfly effect”. The term was first used by Friedrich Schiller in a short story of the 18th century, and refers to an insignificant event giving rise to catastrophic consequences elsewhere. Albedo and clathrates are first in line. When I say no-one can beat the laws of thermodynamics, even AI agrees with me. This is what it has to say: AI cannot beat the laws of thermodynamics. These laws are fundamental principles of physics that govern the behavior of all matter and energy, including the systems that AI operates on. AI relies on physical systems: AI systems are ultimately based on physical hardware like computers and servers. These devices require energy to function and are subject to the laws of thermodynamics. Energy conservation: The first law of thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only converted from one form to another. AI systems, like any other system, must adhere to this principle. Entropy and efficiency: The second law of thermodynamics states that the total entropy of an isolated system can only increase over time. This means that no process can be perfectly efficient, and there will always be some energy lost as heat. AI systems are not exempt from this limitation. While AI can be used to model and analyze thermodynamic systems, it cannot change the underlying physical laws that govern their behavior. I fully expect more ad hominem attacks from you, the most common form of dishonest argument. Have at it. -

Land border entry: Do I need an agent (or worst case e-Visa)?
Yes, something like this. And people here repeatedly saying there's no bribery involved in all of these agent service. How do you think you'll get in without any issues? -

How did you do it ?
So how many Thai or Chinese guys, shady or not, want a > 30 year old woman with a 10 year old farang son? I guess near 0%.
