‘It scared them off’, Kansas City shoppers report less crime thanks to security robot patrolling strip mall
  • It make sense, when you make a decision you make it based on the data you have not the truth. So security theaters are effective as long as people who are thinking about commiting a crime think it is working. And they care about getting caught.

  • Even Apple finally admits that 8GB RAM isn't enough
  • I have a VPS that uses 1GB of RAM, it has 6-7 apps running in docker containers which isn't the most ram efficient method of running apps.

    A light OS really helps, plus the most used app that uses a lot of RAM actually reduce their consumption if needed, but use more when memory is free, the web browser. On one computer I have chrome running with some hundreds of MB used, instead of the usual GBs because RAM is running out.

    So it appears that memory is full,but you can actually have a bit more memory available that is "hidden"

  • Macron’s tactics against the far right failed
  • Tactics against the far right? What tactics? He has done absolutely nothing against the rise of the far right and helped it so many times.

    Hell he has become more extremist every year himself.

    What works against the far is known, we have already done it in the past : everything done by the CNR after the war. A social safety net. He has done nothing but destroying it, not only has he failed to fight the far right, he is actively enabling it.

  • Macron calls the rise of far-right parties an 'ill wind' for Europe
  • On a more general note than the answer you already got, he is extremely authoritarian, absolutely never listen to the people same for his government, refuses to change his mind on anything and isn't open to discussion on anything. Even with the state of emergency being declared on part of the territory, he didn't give anything away to make it stop.

    So he destroys the social net, and people's beliefs in democracy : that's the two things you have to do to raise far right anywhere.

  • TIL 40 states in the US charge you $20-$80 a day for being incarcerated in prison.
  • If the issue was cost, you would build schools. A better educated population get less sick, earns more and thus pays more taxes, commit way less crimes, get less social welfare, in short it is a net gain in tax dollars.

    Plus, someone who gets out of jail with a big debt will very likely cost way more to society than what could ever be recovered from them.

  • Removed
    But how would they be able to live on that?
  • They can do what they already do and use their unrealized gains as collateral for a loan and use that to pay the tax of they don't want to realize the gains. This is already how they spend their money without realizing gains. I don't see the issue with them doing the same for taxes as they do for their yachts and private jets.

  • Are there any genuine benefits to AI?
  • Medical use is absolutely revolutionary. From GP's consultations to reading tests results, radios, AI is already better than humans and will be getting better and better.

    Computers are exceptionally good at storing large amount of data, and with ML they are great at taking a lot of input and inferring a result from that. This is essentially diagnosing in a nutshell.
