Absolutely false, South Korea isolated the people with the disease after making very fast and swift vast amount of tests per day (30.000) after a joint effort with the private sector and such proceedings could be perfectly be labeled as "isolation"[0] which is exactly what a lockdown is.
No I didn't, I rewrote it to make it sound less inflammatory because I though that was the reason it got flagged. I still believe its a valid point, you may think otherwise of course.
Where did you get this idea that all professions need to be 50%/50%? Just for example 90% of nurses are female but we are as a society are OK with that right?
And even if you could please everyone that doesn't guarantees you are a net positive for society; for example Galileo had to bother a lot of people to convince them the earth rotates around the sun and not otherwise; and pretty much anyone with an unpopular opinion that at the end turned out be for the best had to bother a lot of people.
Not really, as an example bothering people that believe earth is flat by saying "it is not" is a positive in my book; in other words, bothering ideas that need to be bothered.
> extreme wealth inequality is inevitable in a globalizing world unless effective wealth-equalizing institutions are installed on a global scale.
Yeah, and water is wet; since ever is known that the best tool to make money is... money; so the resource tends to get unevenly distributed and pile up in the hands of a few. And what's worse is that the punishment for not having enough money is... to lose money, obviously overdraft fees are the best example of this, but there are a million ways more.
You say it like it is that simple to fix; they could ask for photo in the curriculum and just discard the few that looks old, -after targeting job ads on pages that are disproportionaly "liked" by the age range they want-
The only true way to solve this is to force by law to hire older people (e.g. 30% of your workforce must be over 40); otherwise all this proxies like trying to regulate third-party ads and else its just an endless cat-and-mouse game.
Selling access for attention of people that fit specific characteristics has been done for decades and its fully legal; that's why bingo shows aimed to old people get Viagra ads, that's why the Seventeen magazine gets acne treatment ads; sure there are some non-teenagers buying the Seventeen magazine but its such a tiny minority that its irrelevant.
False; mostly because a simple analogy can make one understand at least slightly topics that one has no prior knowledge; dogs cannot understand even the simplest of analogies, mostly cause they have no language.
And even if that argument isn't good enough; the dog has no tools to escape its constrains; humans do; we are messing with our brains constantly looking for a way to make it better; may it be by genetic therapy (DNA mods), chemically induced (drugs) or hardware implants (artificial neurons).
I just created this JavaScript script that you can paste in your browser console (F12) to fetch all comments from all pages (using AJAX); just execute it before the search script. Cheers.
Instead of looking for patterns from itself on others images (training data) it starts with noise and deforms such noise based on patterns found on itself and favors deformations closer to the input image; eventually reaching something close to the input image without the noise (cause the noise it's pattern-less or at least weak enough to die over stronger patterns)
yeah looks strange; I think motion blur to reduce "discomfort" when rotating the camera may have been a better compromise; or maybe removing all single-out black pixels (e.g. those with no adjacent black pixels in a 4x4 radius).
In many Spanish countries we have a similar one: "le das la mano y agarran el codo", which translates "you give them a hand and they'll grab the elbow".
