By some interpretations, Schrodinger's equations describe epistemological state from a given (finite) perspective. So it's not so much that the cat is both alive and dead, it's that the best we can say is that it's

Separate question, what are your ethics around the surveillance of Americans' economic activities by private actors? What "rights" are relevant in this space and which do you subscribe to? I'm not going to debate you abo

It's the normal term, in that it has been normalized as such. But it is otherwise not accurate except in the barest, most monetaristically self-fulfilling-prophecy way.

Is there any documentation on this to read further? I.e. what the different levels contain and how much on average is the cost reduction for the merchant.

One prominent counterexample is that made famous after the UnitedHealthcare CEO was shot and killed, that they employed a decision-making algorithm that apparently rejected 90% of claims with no audit trail or real justification besides cos

Faith in the system is no substitute for the actual work of maintenance. Right now there are people in power actively dismantling the system -- faith is not enough.

I worked at one of these. Turned out it was a nepotism grift that flew under the radar. CEO came out of retirement to get an ironclad contract through his college buddy to do basically nothing and get paid for it.

Ah, but it does, if you just understand a single thing about economic indicators. Context matters. We could rehash every minor news story into a longform essay or we could use what we already know to interpret what's being presented he
