Does "The bias is in favor of clean athletes: that you can be clean and win' actually follow in any way from the discussion of various bike, itinerary, and diet optimizations that would presumably also be helpful to people shot full of veterinary hormones or whatever; or is this just Tygart saying what his job requires?

I'm definitely not a cycling strategist; but the various optimizations described sound like they are either neutral(like lower drag frames), or potentially even more helpful if you can find a way to sneak a few drugs in(like tighter diet control and better route planning that would potentially reward the ability to make quick metabolic adjustments under specific circumstances); none of those changes sound like they are skewed in favor of baseline users specifically.

Combined with a barrier method.

I don't think it's surprising that they can do that, but I still understand why a director would be upset. At the very least, I would say that such a substantial change is a violation of trust between the director and the production company. It's not like they just up-scaled the movie or added some scenes that were cut. When the director made the film, he probably didn't even consider this a possibility.

It's just another sad reminder that in the modern age the individual is nothing. The corporation is everything.

It's making them more extreme.

English eludes you as effectively as logic.

You still believe in that fairy tale bullshit that was created specifically to manipulate idiots? I guess it's still working after all these years.

This is entirely untrue. MBAs also have to learn how to drink and golf at the same time.

Nailed it in one. They're using people with no experience to train their software... so that it can make more mistakes?

Thinking about this more, AI trained on a corpus of internet bullshit is going to be more likely to bullshit you about things that aren't convenient to fact check, because the legions of dipshits do exactly the same thing.

Only a clown who knows how nothing works thinks human rights aren't a political issue, since they are invented concepts which are wholly meaningless without a government willing to protect them.

Giving it access is one thing, giving it enough access to delete things is another.

They probably followed its instructions for granting access, too.

It's always disgusting to see people come to his defense. It's heartbreaking when it happens here. This is supposed to be a place for people who care about knowing things. And indeed I assume that the people defending him actually know he's a child fucker, so that means that a significant percentage of the people here who regularly get modpoints are in favor of child rape.

That in fact is how the orcs work. Puto sends them into other nations and they rape their way across them.

Not really, as we've seen the slower it is the more chance it has to take and strengthen roots. A despotic reigime that takes over quickly tends to be the easiest to remove. The one that has had years, if not decades to move their people into key positions will take a Herculean effort to dislodge.

That excuse sounds like "Officer, I swear it's not a meth lab".

If they can do 600 miles at great expense, the same tech can do 300 miles at not so great expense.

Someone in my area is selling a Smart EV. They advertised it as being able to do 60 miles. The average American's commute is 30 minutes. So is mine. Since I can't charge at work, I could only drive to and from work at 60 mph and with zero issues, no detours, perfect weather etc. A reasonable range is somewhere in between that and 600 miles.
