Not all societies believe that individual freedoms cannot be preempted by things that help the society as a whole or protect the individual from dangers. In Canada, for example, healthcare is a shared burden across all people. Which alone i

Can we talk about their insanely bad UI for a moment? The UI to play through things NOT as shuffle is unreal. Just look how hidden it even is on their website [0]. Consider how hard it is to play an audiobook, or an album in order. Further,

Please tell me "seed-money" was a pun intended moment. Jokes aside, from a biology perspective why the aversion to GMO? From an ML perspective, what are you optimizing for - maximized growth rate?
