If you write an article about Zabka stores and what's unique and interesting about them I'll probably read it.

Surprisingly this comes up more then you'd think, for instance in Ancient Rome, tomorrow is two days away so all the dates are off by one from what you'd think it was. They mainly count down and it goes, 5, 4, 3, day before, day.

Isn't a big problem with Linear A that there are so few symbols you can "solve" it relatively straightforwardly with no way to tell if you it's correct or not?

What do you consider the appropriate false negative/fall positive rate for voices of people aged 16-20? Since you don't give a confidence rating to the determination it's on the service to figure out what it's comfortable with.

As somebody who makes maps for a living, I think clusters are overrated (I have had, on multiple occasions, had to talk people out of it). The leaflet extension that gives you a preview of the area covered by the cluster and allows you to click to zoom to the extent of cluster I do feel is a good setup for situations where just putting all the dots down isn't going to give you good information. That being said doesn't work great on mobile.

Also pour one out to google fusion tables which back in the day was the amazing way to get tons of dots onto a map.

post puberty boys have absolutely have overlap with over 18 adults, if for no other reason then kids can go through puberty at different ages, so some 18 years olds have voices that are just dropping while others have had their voice drop for 6+ years.

You aren't going to be able to find a set of signatures that keeps out a useful number of <18s that doesn't also flag >18s

I (41 man with very deep voice) told it in a higher then normal voice that I was a kid, and it said I was under 18. I suspect if I was a kid that used a deep voice to say that I was an adult it would also fool it.

No offense but this is probably worthless is an adversarial environment.

It depends on the year, sometimes it's actually visa overstays.

Probably not, we're nowhere near the complexity of the human brain yet, there are also quantization limits to the human brain (i.e. molecules, quantum physics, etc) so to characterize them as having infinite detail is probably a bad modal.

If I'm going to be honest most of the people who advocate this type of thing tend to be, shall we say, crypto-duelists who really believe in a soul but not like intellectually but intuitively and keep trying to come up with excuse with it's not just meat. So like you can find philosophers advocating stuff like this but they tend to have a bit of an agenda.

besides zoning laws, the judge fairly explicitly states that one of the reasons he thinks it's fine is because corporations aren't doing these kinds of shenanigans, so if you were to do something like that he might revise the ruling.

I find myself defending this shitty ruling (which I honestly think is bad, but bad for completely other reasons) the ruling basically says, since corporations are not using this to dilute the vote it's fine, which basically means in other words, if corporations where to do the shenanigans you're suggesting, the judge is open to revising the ruling.

yeah so it sounds like if you did this IN THIS TOWN and didn't also live in the town you'd get a vote. I'm not sure if you'd get a vote if you owned the land directly but for all I know you might.

I don't think this is a good opinion or anything, but issues with vote dilution were expressly addressed in the opinion.

It's specifically about corporations that own property in a specific town voting. So no you can't just spin up a bunch of LLCs to rig an election, this is about the rights of absentee landlords.

It sounds like you it's only corporations that own property in the town that get to vote. So that's probably whats preventing you.

There is a specific medial jargon developed form latin designed to be unambiguous and often intentionally different from lay words is one thing you're hearing in American tv, the other is that many technical words are English words but of latin origin.

no they have a securities license. Also while a lot of stuff in stock markets are gambling like, the stock market is a positive sum game where very basic techniques (e.g. index investing) have positive expected values.

The buyers and sellers are not the only ones there, there is also the companies injecting money into it via dividends and stock buy backs, I can be a winner on the stock market without there having to be a loser.

In the American system juries figure out questions of fact and judges figure out questions of law.

In this case I guess the question was 'when did the incident actually happen' with Elon arguing it was later then Altman.

Shapefiles, the legacy multifile file format for geospatial stuff that is still an incredibly important interchange format since it has basically universal support is built around DBF files.

So despite it being an incredibly old file format it's still used constantly in the GIS world and it's probably not going to go away because while it's not a good format, it does basically everything at to at least a mediocre level which can't be said for any of the newer formats that tend to do a few things great but other things terribly.

Like Geojson is great for interchange but you can't really do in place edits or even in place seeking from disk, shapefile can.

Sqlite allows great editing and seeking but you can't use that in a browser without doing something complicated like compiling the sqlite binary to js or wasm.

my understanding is that there are a few MOND champions who are still holding on to the idea while everyone else has moved on.
