Minor nitpick, the latest Call of Duty uses ballistics on all guns, not hitscan.

Sure, but that doesn't mean they think running is bad in general. Excuses don't equate to an opinion. If someone told me to run, I'd tell them that I can't because I pass out when I run (medical condition). Doesn't

Is it really "popular knowledge that people are not supposed to run"? I've only heard this claim made by people that don't agree with it as some sort of strawman. Almost everyone I know thinks running is good, and all of

Doesn't the verdict of the trial related to the bail request have impact upon that? (legitimate question. I don't know if non-guilty parties are more/less likely to skip than guilty parties?) That's assuming that we can

I'm confused here, I read the article and it was somewhat muddy about the point trying to be made other than "machine bad!". Racially biased could mean two things: despite not taking into account race the algorithm groups res

Measure against recidivism and skipping bail? Surely we have a baseline that can be used, such as when these systems are not in play?

I assume this might be an unpopular opinion, but shouldn't these programs be evaluated on some metric of success rather than their racial selection? If the software is accurate at picking choices that match the set goals, then it would

I think that's the most succinct way to put it: Give children stake in your interests. It doesn't even have to be direct. If I'm working on a lesson (I teach technology), I can ask the kid to come up with some ideas, help cle

I don't have kids. However, I teach up to 18 hours a day with children of various ages. I've done this for 22 years. I also have been the de facto babysitter for my family since I was 14. Kids in my home almost constantly. The #1

That would be mismanagement (and annoying of course), not "dead" I would think?

669 commits in the last year... and asking if the project is dead? I'm a bit confused here. Maybe the project is mismanaged, or there's some upstream issue with package distro, but it seems to be far from dead.

I wasnt trying to make some generalized comment about society. I was relaying my own personal situation as it's an example how how some (very few, likely) people can have a large disparity between gross and net income with little ethic

Yes. I could certainly bring the costs down, but at the expense of the experience of the students. I don't believe that is an ethical choice, even if the students are already extremely privileged. I do struggle with this every few mont

Please see my other comment. You're making assumptions that are not correct regarding my choice in housing and expenses.

I manage my money quite well, thank you. Im not sure why it's difficult to grasp that the difference between gross and net income can be large for some job in some areas, but that is the case for a small number of individuals.

Nope. I'm doing just fine. As I said in my comment, non-negotiable expenses are high.

Well, according to income charts, thats me. Im most certainly not upper class, as I can't even afford to buy department store clothes or go out to eat more than once a week. My expenses, due to my location, education, medical status an

Not everyone can just 'go to bed'. Circadian rhythms are a thing, as are a wide variety of sleeping disorders and psychological disorders with sleep comorbidities. Many of these affect simply the time of day when you can fall asle

I don't think this is true. When I was younger, I only could fall asleep at ~2am. I went to multiple schools with starting times varying from 5am to 12pm, it never made a difference. I just wasn't tired until 2am no matter what.

The problem is the chain of truth. Maybe you can prove that someone said something, but not that they believe it or even if it's objectively true. Then you have disputes of validation. A party wanting to retract reality can present the
