And if those results change, so will the algorithm's outputs! But asking the algorithm to make the change seems to be a bit much. Honestly, my preferred method of solving this would be to train the algorithm on a data set with all o

And you're also confusing correlation with causation here. Yes, "governmental policies have discriminated against African Americans and prevented the accumulation of wealth" is a valid hypothesis, but the data you've

Just reading the section you linked, it sounds like he's autistic, not racist. If you didn't know that "Grand Dragon" and "Imperial Wizard" were KKK titles, you'd probably think they were cool - or at leas

Well, there exist countries that have government without capitalism, so yes I do believe they are.

Except not as battle hardened and with fewer features, but otherwise that's what it looks like to me ZeroTier's pretty damn cool, IMO: https://github.com/zerotier/ZeroTierOne

Well, taking the maximally-charitable view of things would point out that "Black Crime" would cover ~half of violent crime in the US, and so deserve a category. But somehow I doubt that they'd cover non-black crime to quite t

And that assumes there's no physical damage to the sensor, too.

I mean, I suppose you could call regulatory capture 'capitalism'... But seeing as most people's response to 'capitalism failing' is to call for more regulation, I don't think that that's really fair.

It certainly takes something to look at a housing market where regulations enforce artificial scarcity and say that everything wrong with it is the result of capitalism...

Personally, I would be really unsurprised to see the hispanic vote start to match the traditional "bible belt" vote in the next few decades. That might be republican, it might be something else - but the idea of a conservative cat

I mean, the chemical waste from photovoltaic production is also still poison for 10,000+ years - lots of heavy metals and other nasty shit there. But we don't seem to be quite so afraid of it...

Of course there's degrees of novelty. How could there not be?

That's not how I'd define patent trolling, honestly. I'd include some restrictions on the patent itself, and how novel it was. What the Wright brothers did was like planting a tree and then claiming that the fully grown tree

Well, to turn things around... You think people haven't just kept their head down, ignored the speaker's politics, and paid attention to the technical aspects of a talk when it's coming from someone on the left?

If it's OK to exclude people thanks to 2nd degree taint like that, does this mean it would be fine for a conference to exclude everyone who supported Bernie because of his association with AntiFa?

The problem with this is it's the same argument that gets used to justify things like the Patriot Act. "The only times you see us use this power is in horrible ways, but we assure you, most of the time we use it for good reasons!

"Thankfully", the 737 series isn't a modern airliner, and isn't fly-by-wire. All control inputs are directly linked to the relevant outputs, though sometimes with power assistance.
