It's a visa. The whole point is that it's not permanent and you are ultimately expected to return home permanently. You may also be asked to leave at any time. It's reasonable for the host nation to want to ensure that out

0.02% relative risk increase implies 2 in 10,000 will end up with the condition where they would not otherwise. Your chances of being hit by a meteorite are _at most_ 1 in 1,000,000. My happiness would not extend across several orders of ma

In terms of outcome, it maybe a tolerable risk, but anything that flat out doubles the risk ratio is fairly concerning; in particular, where the mechanisms are not well understood.

It's one of the examples presented in their article, I did not pick it at random. Perhaps when people without subject matter experience write laws or contracts they end up as the paper suggests, but when people understand the proble

I find nothing particularly incomprehensible about laws in general. In an experiment where you ask a bunch of amateurs to write legal documents I'm not sure you can apply any real interpretation to those results. They use the example

Even if AGI suddenly appears we will most likely have an energy feed and efficiency problem with it. These scaling problems are just not on the common roadmap at all and people forget how much effort typically has to be spent here before a
