I played this on android a couple of years ago but eventually uninstalled it. Now it appears to be missing from the Play store?

There are many that I don't understand very well, so I'm reluctant to rank them. My tendency is to be skeptical about how clearly us humans can see the underlying reality of things, so I find epistemic interpretations like QBism a

That's one position in a century-long debate. But there are other assumptions than locality in the proof of Bell's Theorem, which other interpretations of QM relax. Like having single measurement outcomes (many-worlds), or observe

BM is objective, and indeed deterministic. I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "complete" but it has all the same predictions as other interpretations of QM. It has some odd quirks however, such as explicit non-locality.

But... the section on deterrance pretty much aligns with what I just said above: https://lawcomic.net/guide/?p=114 Namely that it is unlikely to factor into people's decision-making process - and when it does, the

Please consider that your original post could also be seen as shaming people who appreciate the beauty of train journeys. Some of the best quality time I've spent with my son has been during train journeys. Like many two-year olds he

For cult sci fi classics you can't get much better than "Stars My Destination" by Alfred Bester. Other goodies include Dune (of course), Gateway, and The Forever War. I also recently read Speaker For The Dead (sequel to Ender

Given how hard it was to find one example, the next result is bound to be something like "almost all convex polyhedra cannot pass through themselves".

The UK has evolved a sophisticated detection and deterrent system: https://www.gamblingcommission.gov.uk/licensees-and-business... UK regulations are also more coherent, centralised, and strict than the patchwork US model.

That is probably statistically true, though it'll depend on the mother's income, stability, and subsequent partnering. The impact on the mother however is definitive.

You've probably already looked but it may be possible to purchase physical vintage copies if all else fails, e.g.: https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?item=145752856587&rt=nc&_t...

I agree. Very important to distinguish between "This is supernatural" and "I cannot explain this". I tried to chase up the Wikipedia reference. The URL has slightly changed but I found it anyway. The quotation is subtly

True, there's a big difference both in personal effort and the impact it has on the other party. I recently watched a Netflix spy drama "Black Doves" in which a prominent politician's wife turns out to be a spy contracti

Not quite the same thing but in the UK there have been a number of scandals around undercover police officers infiltrating activist groups, entering into relationships and fathering children with genuine members, then disappearing: https:&

Enjoyable read. I was left wondering whether Cornell came to any conclusions after a life of studying the paranormal. Wikipedia has: > [Cornell] believed that many sightings of ghosts, hauntings and poltergeists are products of the human

It's not a hard and fast definition, but generally involves: * An honest acknowledgement of ones behaviour and its impact on others. * Accepting the consequences of your behaviour, whether legal (such as going to jail), financial, or p

I disagree. Comparison with human baseline is basically irrelevant. AI will be used in so many more ways and at so much greater scale that the failure rate has to stand alone as extraordinarily low regardless of human abilities.

by n4r9 1y ago
The difference is the ease with which AI can be rolled out, scaled up, and woven into the fabric of our interactions with society.

There's definitely some truth to that. There are situations where someone might restrain themselves because of the consequences of getting caught. I suppose the question is whether the consequence needs to be punishment as opposed to

I guess the claim is not that rubes did not used to exist, but rather that technology is increasingly encouraging and streamlining rubism.

I think most people who commit a crime either do it in the heat of the moment, or believe that they're very unlikely to get caught. The distant prospect of punishment doesn't apply in either case. I guess there are some edge cases

I don't think that people are stopped from committing assault by an abstract risk-benefit calculation that considers the likelihood of jailtime. It's not what stops me, at least. Mostly I just don't want to. And even if I do

Must justice include punishment? If someone hits me, I'd much rather they take responsibility, apologise, and work on themselves to become a better person, than simply get locked up for a while.

That's true although "Roma" is a more sensitive (and accurate) description. The linked article is still a bit weird, as RLS does not appear to be Roma or even a vagabond/itinerant figure. He just travelled a lot.

You make it sound like Kisunla and Leqembi were approved out of negligence. A cursory search reveals that it was a weighted assessment of relative outcomes - the trials showed clinical benefits for a serious condition with few treatment pat
