Yeah, Hammurabi was probably tired of having to constantly adjudicate disputes between clans, so his top priority was probably to shut down most complaints from the get go.

It's likely a way for a judge to inject their own subjective judgement into an accusation of witchcraft: The hope is that people that are innocent are more likely to accept a "trial by water" because they hope the deities wil

I'm no expert, but one would imagine the list grew organically, adding new laws as they became necessary, like an append-only data structure.

There is no "plot armor" in the real world, protecting humans from having bad things happening Things do not, in fact, have a way of "working out" If we don't want bad things to happen, we have to actively stop bad

I don't dispute that people get used to driving, but I think arguing that "driving" requires the same amount of effort as "not driving" is a more specious claim

safety arguments need to be statistical in nature there's no such thing as perfect safety

nobody is forcing you to spend your money on things you don't like if you don't pay attention when you're driving with a taxi/Uber/chauffeur, that doesn't seem very smart

Maybe I'm just a bad driver, but it feels much safer to me having two entities paying attention, instead of just one It's much more comfortable not to have to micromanage the exact position of the car at every moment, as a manual

I have FSD v12 and for my drives, in my part of the country, I have to do a mild safety intervention maybe once a week (like, getting closer to another car than I'm comfortable with) sorry other people are having different experiences,

Since lots of surfaces in Doom are diagonal, using that approach would have required an enormous amount of splitting of polygons, to fit the geometry to an orthogonal tree, probably increasing the amount of geometry an order of magnitude. T

It's always easy to make fun of people who are trying to be safe after the fact "trying to be safe" means you sometimes don't do something, even if there's only a 10% chance something bad will happen Why bother chec
