There's nothing wrong with knowing your own limitations and acting accordingly. Had Mr. Zuckerberg had that sort of self-knowledge, he might have avoided lighting 80-billion-with-a-b dollars on fire and renaming his social media company after a technology that nobody wanted.

considering how people who have only their name and ethnicity in common have been singled out for...."enhanced scrutiny", i'm not inclined to trust the watchers even a little bit.

"We have NOT failed. We've merely found half a million ways that do not work"

Asking for better police in the USA has been going on for much longer than I've been alive and that's quite a long time.
I've also been alive long enough to remember when overall crime was MUCH worse than today, almost everywhere and most police, again almost everywhere, fit into the ACAB designation.
But over time the police in every advanced Western nation became much better trained and much less of of a gang of bastards with one glaring exception.
BTW "defund the police" meant a lot of things, that are difficult to fit into a short slogan.
Personally, I would have gone with "BETTER cops NOW!"
However if you took the time to actually LISTEN to what was, what has been asked since the days of WEB Du Bois and other notable minority leaders, were entirely reasonable and would have taken away the burden of cops dealing with situations for which they're entirely unsuitable and usually unwilling to handle.
It sucks for those who grew up in dangerous areas but many live to escape them as you did, congrats.
But when you when have a culture of law enforcement where the Thin Blue Line is also the Blue Wall of Silence then the safe society we all prize is endangered and YOU, most of all, should be the LOUDEST voice for change instead of being the most ardent apologist.
Enlisted men and officers are subject to the UCMJ regardless of how stressful and dangerous their missions and postings.
Should police officers, many of whom see themselves as urban warriors also be subject to the UCMJ?
If not then why not?

"Once you experience violent crime for yourself..."
I know people who have and for a few that violence was at the hands of police officers.
So what should they think after their complaints have been ignored and later subject to harassment?

"So little has changed since Frank Serpico was shot in the face "
While Serpico was awarded a Medal of Honor, it was tossed at him over a desk and not in a ceremony with the associated certficate. THAT wasn't rectified until 2022 - FIFTY years later.
Even today most oldtimers and quite a few active duty still consider Serpico a self-serving traitor to the badge.

That is true, but it's a little more complicated than that.

The average driver is pretty good, 99.9% of the time. The other 0.1% of the time, they are tired, or angry, or momentarily distracted, or just looking the other direction from where they need to be looking under those particular circumstances. It's those occasional blips of inattention that cause lead to most accidents occurring.

Yes, I agree. The problem with thinking "this bug seems harmless, because I can't imagine how anyone could exploit it" is in the "I can't imagine" part; my imagination is limited to what is covered by my mental model of how computers work, but an attackers' ingenuity is not.

In particular, the C/C++ optimizer is a devious beast, and will exploit any opportunity to make the code more efficient, even if that means doing things that are wildly unintuitive to a naive human reader -- and it sees any instance of undefined behavior as an opportunity to exploit.

(C) is the only one of those the AI companies are really concerned about -- they want to stave off model collapse for as long as possible. The problem is that AI generates so much content that the ratio of AI-generated data to human-generated data keeps rising, and sooner or later there simply won't be much human-generated data left to anything to consume. At that point they'll either have to figure out to ingest AI-generated content without causing degradation, or they'll have to accept that AIs have gotten as smart as they will ever get, and it's all downhill from there.

If the good apples are not restraining, retraining or arresting the bad ones, then they're almost as bad as the rotten bastards.
FYI, it wasn't until 2022, FIFTY ONE years after his departmental Medal of Honor was thrown onto his desk like a pack of smokes that the New York's Very Finest gave Frank Serpico an award ceremony and official certificate.
