I read somewhere:
Metals are ohmic so long as one holds their temperature constant.
But changing the temperature of a metal changes R slightly.
Therefore such a device as an electric light bulb increases its
temperature as it warms up, which is why it glows slightly brighter
for a very brief time just after it is turned on.
Comments, anyone?
