Just to post an interesting jailhouse lawyer observation, the number one group of innocent men in prison are dad's that took the fall for their kids. Our system doesn't handle that well. If there is a crime and someone who will pl

Haha. Just kidding. Of course that sort of insight into the courts is paywalled. Why should people have free access to what is going on in the courts?

So reticence deserves a 20 year sentence taken down to 5? Are you sure it wasn't just inflated to 20 years to push people into taking the 5 year sentence? first degree and second degree are two different charges, which obviously should

'90 percent of trial transcripts the Bureau analyzed as part of its Microscopic Hair Comparison Analysis Review contained erroneous statements'. Would you be OK with a hospital having this level 'innocent mistake' rate?

Thank you for this comment. I was listening to Podcasts on Spotify think it would help get those podcasts attention. I'll switch away from doing that now.

I've heard that their algorithm now prioritizes lower licensing cost songs even if their algos rank them as a lower possible match for you. It also seems like their curated playlists prioritize lower quality songs now too, so I try to

Is your number all New Metal (not to be confused with the equally important to the world's economy Nu Metal production) or is part of the 1.9 billion recycled/reclaimed? It appears this number includes 450-500 million tons of recl

Wait, are people getting paid to fill these applications out in your mind? Or are they not getting paid to do the work that hiring managers USED to do but are now TOO LAZY to do and have automated away? And why are businesses not cutting la

So you are saying it is GOOD if an employee is working two jobs because they are then exposed to more solutions and actually SAVE the company because they can reuse existing knowledge other companies have taken the time to develope? I like

Was in the Santa Cruz area at football practice in 1989. My knees were in my face. We were not able to go into our house for a week until it was determined safe. Us and all our neighbors camped in our front yards and had a huge block party.

The work of art was 'created' by an anonymous author, the AI. Title 17 explicitly handles works by anonymous authors. I can't just claim them if I didn't create them. If I can claim I own works created by my code, and th

Go read Title 17 of the United States Code. AI would be considered an anonymous author. You can't claim title to another authors anonymous work. If you claim I can own copyright for works created using my software algorithms, you would

I don't believe this is the case, because the AI is what is known as an 'anonymous author' under copyright, and authorship does not just transfer because you're the first to claim it. Are you claiming that whoever wrote

Dude, it is disgusting what people put in recycling. I think people may be trying to sabotage it the stuff they put in there. Lots of used kitty litter. Lots of soiled clothes. Worst thing we had come through was a human body.
