I don’t agree with most western philosophies of prison, the US is probably the worst amongst them (but most of that comes at the state level), I was just highlighting that Japan isn’t in some way uniquely bad for ‘western’ law systems. Indeed, conviction rate is a really hard stat to do any sort of apples to apples comparison for because different countries count and report it different ways.
The conviction rate is 99.3%. By only stating this high conviction rate it is often misunderstood as too high—however, this high conviction rate drops significantly when accounting for the fact that Japanese prosecutors drop roughly half the cases they are given. If measured in the same way, the United States’ federal conviction rate would be 99.8%.[14][15][16]

You need to do whats best for yourself, but it sounds like Israel would be a better place with your voice in it.
No? Look there are weird racists for everything, but generally Italian and Irish racism is like 100 years out of fashion.
Even 400 spread over a whole day, if you are healthy, you wont feel it in a bad way. Conversely, don’t just down 2 back to back.
You can dress how you want. If you see a millennial reaction weirdly to what you are wearing, its likely them cringing at a memory of when they wore something similar as a kid. Cyclical fashion trends and all that. With that said, our culture does have a huge issue with fast fashion, and I’d encourage simpler higher quality clothes that wont cycle with trends as often, for the sake of not destroying the planet.
Everyone learns for a first time, often through a negative experience. You should take the opportunity to promote FOSS alternatives rather than semi-gloat about your foresight.
Cheese and olives is a pretty classic combo? The acidity and brine helps cut through the fattyness of the cheese. You see it in all sorts of antipasto platters. Not sure about the hotdog though.
… Isn’t this how doom was more or less sold? It was a one of the classic ID software shareware games, where you’d get part 1 for free and then have to mail order further parts.
I was about to get really upset with you, then read the magazine name, so fair enough I guess.
The question still stands, this just reframes it. He had a majority, just not a filibusterer proof one, so why are the Republicans so willing to remove the filibusterer when it gets in there way and the Democrats not?
This is like saying they discovered how to pick a lock so deserve everything in whats locked by it.
I haven’t read this article, but the one place machine learning is really really good, is narrowing down a really big solution space where false negatives and false positives are cheap. Frankly, I’m not sure how you’d go about training an AI to solve math problems, but if you could figure that out, it sounds roughly like it would fit the bill. You just need human verification as the final step, with the understanding that humans will rule out like 90% of the tries, but if you only need one success that’s fine. As a real world example machine learning is routinely used in astronomy to narrow down candidate stars or galaxies from potentially millions of options to like 200 that can then undergo human review.
I suspect you are just a troll as others have said, but in the case you aren’t;
It’s been shown for all crimes, that degree of punishment doesn’t really have much effect on deterrence. People tend to not know what the punishment for any given crime is, they tend to underestimate how likely they are to get caught, and when worrying about consequences they tend to worry about consequences they understand, like how their family or friends will react, not what living in prison for years will be like.
The justice system everywhere is fallible, protections for those in jail aren’t only for the absolutely guilty, they are for the innocent who are incorrectly incarcerated.
Killing someone wont undue what they’ve done. As horrific as it is, the trauma inflicted on someone can’t be undone. You are only putting more suffering into the world when you punish someone without tangible goals.
?? Temu is like 2 years old, they did a huge marketing blitz when they first started. Wish has been around since 2010, and I think they were probably most famous well before the pandemic.
You can probably throw together a pretty simple wordpress website without much knowledge. Just keep it mostly out of the box, maybe change the theme.
As a Canadian, I do see reports of police violence in Canada, and I imagine I’m largely seeing the same stuff you are, so you’ve also likely seen some. With that said, police violence per interaction is a pretty low % everywhere (to be clear, it should be 0), but its like 10x higher in the US than other comparable countries, and the US has a huge population. Because of a combination of those factors I wouldn’t be shocked if like 90-95% of police violence happening in English speaking countries is happening in the US.
Its a meme reference to the Bear vs Man question going around.
Gaming actually provides a real benefit for people, and resources spent on it mostly linearly provide that benefit (yes some people are addicted or etc, but people need enriching activities and gaming can be such an activity in moderation).
AI doesn’t provide much benefit yet, outside of very narrow uses, and its usefulness is mostly predicated on its continued growth of ability. The problem is pretrained transformers have stopped seeing linear growth with injection of resources, so either the people in charge admit its all a sham, or they push non linear amounts of resources at it hoping to fake growing ability long enough to achieve a new actual breakthrough.
