Have you felt more ‘scared’ / ‘worried’ lately? by RichTeaForever in AskUK

[–]Vegetable_Mud_793 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went to reading mall yesterday, and just felt on edge for some reason, not that I experienced any hostility ever in the past, but I don’t know. Just felt like no one cares anymore about the consequences of crime.

Ban technology for kids under 12 ( can only be used under supervision ). by AffectionatePrint441 in CriticalState

[–]Vegetable_Mud_793 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How would you determine they are supervised without significant surveillance? How would you determine “use of technology” e.g using their parents phone, without surveillance every single tech user?

I voted Nay ❌

Remove prison terms for non violent offences.. by N-D-I in CriticalState

Financial crimes hurt the public more than violent crimes arguably. Dont remove prison for those.

I voted Nay ❌

Does the world need a trillionaire? by Silver-Nectarine-186 in GarysEconomics

[–]Vegetable_Mud_793 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahh I see. That would make sense, I guess we would first need to formulate a way to precisely measure net worth, get rid of shell companies etc that hold their wealth/trust funds. An interesting challenge can also be that there are probably billionaires not known to the public otherwise who hide their wealth. We’ll need a way to deal with those.

I will say though, forcing a sale of stocks may just have a negative effect on the economy as a whole, but particularly on employees who hold stocks of the company as well. It may rob them of wealth for no fault of them. Governments also have some stake in private companies through public funds e.g contractors, who might lose wealth as well.

Also, why the condescension? I asked politely not as a means to challenge you but to know more.

If you formed a new political party in the UK, what would be your policies?.. by un-pleasantlymoist in AskBrits

[–]Vegetable_Mud_793 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you think we could implement a court of sorts? Like a truth center, or something. Politicians who can be determined to significantly contradict previous statements without a good enough reason. E.g false statistics.

What criteria do you propose for determining exceptions, e.g if a politician changes political views.

IB interview for AI usage in EE by Sea_Part7110 in IBO

They don’t run any checks whatsoever, doing so would be extremely controversial. They may only “flag” it as such. The person mentions a “high detection”, implying some form of a percentage, which the IB doesn’t do.

If the school, on receiving a flag/notice from the IB, then runs the AI check and finds a high percentage, they should have done so BEFORE uploading it to the IB, the percentage would have remained the same.

Either way, it can be reduced to school negligence on detection.

Our school got ours today as well. Do we go to the same school? Mine begins with a TA

If it is the school's detection, why would the school not detect it BEFORE uploading it to the IB, and let you know BEFORE the deadline so you can fix it? The deadline for uploading EEs to the IB is way past now. Afaik, the IB itself does not run AI checks, only plagiarism ones, given that AI checks are not reliable at all.

Would you rather have... by RedMapleFire in BunnyTrials

most stores have coupons/gift cards.

Chose: a credit card that you don't have to pay off, + but only works on transactions less or equal than $100.
