Oh! Help! Help me, Remy! Mick Mahler: So, yeah.Not exactly Hollywood, I know, but I really loved pushing these tools to their limits to see where they'd break.
So what happens here or what happened here, for crying out loud? Mick Jagger and I happen to come from the same part of London and are the same age.So there you go.
And I wasn't quite sure what I was doing there, and he took a call halfway through. Sorry. Mick Jagger. And I was like, what?Who is this guy?
It's all about that one phone call, the phone call that I almost did not pick up. Mick definitely was on the other end.I had to be involved with Tempt and just helping him.
Mick Flannery: I'm going to make you miserable for awhile.It's a motivational thing for lunchtime at Google.

realistic uh so the first difficulty is that the the objective function that Mickey gave this bro is not in fact the objective function that Mickey uh was sort of intending uh Mickey wanted the cultr in full and didn't want the cter empty that part was right but Mickey uh
this uh and it does doesn't work uh and again I claim this is very realistic right why does it not work in Mickey's case it doesn't work because Mickey because Mickey's broom has repurposed lots of spare material uh towards things like making more brooms that can help make sure that the cauldron's full what else was the resource going to do like the action
have uh then they do some attempt to translate that into an objective function this may or may not succeed in Mickey's case uh it didn't quite succeed uh then you have the system uh uh attempt uh so there's there's there sort of two subtly different
It's happened across- it's not just brown people, but anybody who was not Caucasian was often, in early Hollywood, especially, Mickey Rooney in "Breakfast at Tiffany's," of course, is the most famous case of whitewashing that there is. But even in the '80s, you had Fisher Stevens playing an Indian guy in "Short Circuit," and stuff like that.
And then you'll keep going, and you'll sing the first note, and it will be a bum note. And Mick will look at you, and you'll go like that. And there will be a big screen with Mick going, what did that singer just do?
My kitchen's so embarrassing. And Mick Jagger would go and sing.
That's the thump the ego makes. Slick Mickey. Get yourself back to the middle.
games, or movies featuring men in Spandex-- so-called superheroes, saints for a secular society where Mickey Mouse and Superman head the pantheon of gods. Because mere heroes are no longer sufficient.
even as it fragments the blackface mask and styles of movement which persist not only in Raggedy Ann and the Scarecrow but also in the faces and gloved hands of Mickey Mouse and Bugs Bunny." And to her list we can add Seuss's cat. And what makes the cat so interesting and so representative-- and why he's the title of the book-- is that during the very same decade
that that maximized this score uh put those spare resources to use uh also if the broom was clever enough to know that sometimes Mickey tries to get water out of the cauldron and Mickey will when Mickey realizes uh that the objective function is not what he wanted attempt to hack me apart with an axe uh the broom like the the score maximizing uh
It favors two or three on top and nobody else. Of Mickey Mouse Who is that?
But this time actually we're going to talk about this his book. But Mickey is one of the most worldly executives you're ever going to come across. I'll give you a little bit of background on him.
He has more than-- I know this number is now outdated, more than 430,000 Twitter followers. Hiroshi Mickey Mikitani, and welcome to Google, Mickey. Thank you.
And many Japanese company, not only in clean up jobs, we clean up the areas around our building. Well Mickey, thank you very, very much for taking the time to talk to us.
So you guys can see this, right? Gigantic Mickey Mouse, right?
John Micklethwait: Thank you very much. As Mark said, I'm happy to answer questions about almost as many things as God, but with slightly less omniscience.
John Micklethwait: I do generally -- I don't want to sound like a free market fundamentalist -- but I do think it a lot of it had to do with that basic idea there is an established
John Micklethwait: In terms of -- the stuff to do in terms of Turkey and India was just sort of anecdotal. If you look at the people, it's the bureaucratic
John Micklethwait: Islam, I think the numbers are more questionable.
John Micklethwait: Well, I suppose, yeah. I do have one observation which has to do with foreign policies. I think, I am personally always keen on religious,
John Micklethwait: I think Dawkins is interesting. Any time I talk to Dawkins about it, he's obsessed by the big, scientific pictures. But actually, he's -- the idea that the sort
John Micklethwait: I think that's a choice you have to make.
John Micklethwait: Google as a religion is interesting.
John Micklethwait: There's two. I think the exorcism in Brazil was fairly nonBrazilian -- was a fairly extraordinary experience.
John Micklethwait: Well, the truth is, some of them are sects to the extent that they drag you in and they never really allow you out.
John Micklethwait: Thank you.
but Mickey is not Pluto's mouse, that disturbed me
Something I'd seen Mick Jagger do to a different song, clearly.
It was Mick Jagger I believe who famously said when he was in his 20s that he'd rather be dead than stand on
It was that classic Mick and Keith look.
His name was Mickey Andrews, my D coordinator.
So this is Mickey Mouse in the traditional Chinese motif.
