I say this as a long term caffeine for the rest of my life addict. Coffee + sugar is a wildly different effect than just coffee. I avoid sugar completely during my coffee hours.

Good luck getting to stay in most of those places. They're happy to have tourists, not residents. Unless you have a lot of money to open a business. Proud little boys don't strike me as wealthy.

Welcome to the world of training datasets.

There are many ways to go about it, but for a limited number they'd probably use human analysts.

But in general, they'd put a lot more effort into a chunk of data and use that as the truth. It's not a perfect method but it's good enough.

About 25% of the population voted to leave.

Vote, people. Because if you don't, a minority might choose your future for you. You can avoid politics, but politics won't avoid you.

So many corporate cock gobblers commenting on this topic.

Parasites like Meta infiltrated our society, did their damn best to become a monopoly, currently steal from smaller businesses, lost personal data from shitloads of people, makes you their product, and even fueled instability in entire countries. Then people wonder why a government wants to use it to perhaps save a few more lives. It's not like Meta is a company deserving of goodwill, so are you people getting a cent for this PR work or are you just suckers?

Though there's no such thing as reverse discrimination. It's just good, old discrimination.

The dangerous route was already taken. Ukrainian people are getting slaughtered, today.

What a beautiful speech you give, completely blind to reality.

After all, it's not illegal to be an asshole.

I can imagine the level of interaction.

Hufman: do this illegal thing for me

Lawyers: no

Huffmen: you're fired

It makes sense. Reddit will be spending a lot on legal fees. It makes no sense to be working for them in a salaried position.

There is no global government. The world is highly fragmented. Most countries themselves are highly fragmented. Even some countries that would have you believe otherwise.

Also, we are too used to the concept of superpowers being countries. That's no longer the case. While countries can still be superpowers, so can corporations. We already have corporations that could fund some of the world's biggest armed forces, but so far they have had no reason to. This isn't a new concept either, think back to the way the British Empire colonised/invaded India for example.

That's such an out of touch with reality thing to say. This is how authoritarianism works. You're either subservient or a criminal with no human rights. Do you think they get a choice other than being locked or hanging themselves?

This is why I'm usually careful about addressing the Russian government rather than its people. There are loads of good people in Russia and I hope eventually they're no longer forced by evil leadership to be the world's antagonists.

It was very polarised. I found it hard to get along with the left subs, impossible with the right subs. People are increasingly less interested in making compromises and more so in having their way or the highway. Though I doubt this is a Reddit issue alone. The world stage has been moving, fast. No doubt sped up by the numerous global crises we just had or are currently having.
