Trump bankrupted himself 6 times, he has had effectively infinite lawsuits against him, etc. He's basically the worst businessman to exist. And besides, the country is not business.

Second, not voting for the lesser evil means that evil wins. We're all tired of the political establishment but it's not going to change when the first past the post system is still here. Flat out won't.

And as a quick reminder, I may have read in between the lines wrong here, not voting under this system means that candidates will just move away from your ideology to gain more reliable votes. Which is actually why Trump became a thing -- because the racists and "not" racists are a more powerful voting base. And people like you "don't have a choice" to vote for anyone else. Instead of the other way around like it was before.

My second thought upon reading the headline is that the reference sample (people who don't take the drug) isn't comparable to the data they collected. People who feel good (survive) generally don't get as much medical care and thus don't show up in statistics as much. So thus I assumed that this study compared its data that would more likely include all people in the study with data that would leave out more survivors.

But this study made its own baseline data, so it has some merit. I did not look into sample size at all.

Amongst other options, users will also be able to restrict their name and photo to people in their contact book.

google once again showing their complete incompetence.

Yes I'm sure that will help literally anything.

Not necessarily. It can add in other things, but if the model is trained well it will be mostly DPD related things. Maybe it appeared on the page but was unrelated. Or a sequence of words leads to another unrelated sequence, but they appear frequently in the training data.

Just because you hace started seeing problems doesn't mean there weren't problems until now. It's just what you see.

That's not autism that's anxiety.

The study directly measured its own reference data. This is big.

IDK why it's set to six years to be re-elected. It's probably there for convenience? Of a sort.

If an ex-vice-president served even one minute as acting president, then if the limit was two terms they wouldn't be able to serve two terms.

Except you never accumulate enough.
