It's blind faith if its only presentation is snarky commentary.

Can't blame the British for Agricural drought. Imagine how many more would have starved without Britain running poor houses there.

Wow that is cool, and I feel bad for you because that would be a cool collector's item! Though to be practical, I do prefer nicely bound and polished publications rather than the photocopied and combly bound.

There's 40 million Irish descendants in the US. The Irish weren't wiped out, they just left. Also it's hard to take that concern seriously when today's Irish government has done more to increase foreigner control over Ireland than the British government ever did.

>But anti-belief is scientific if the belief for something requires a complete overturning of scientific principles. It's not just an absence of evidence for something. It isn't "open minded" to say "could be..." to Bigfoot, Nessie, or the like -- it's closed minded because to even consider the idea seriously is to think that ecologists and population geneticists have no idea what the minimum habitat of a large animal is or of the minimum viable population size is.

That doesn't make sense. What you're saying is that "It's closed minded not to have blind faith in a faceless group of people who get to dictate what you can and cannot say."

I wonder if there is a name for this effect.

>It can't always just be about being nice, unfortunately. Parents who choose not to vaccinate their children could get us all killed. It's a serious threat.

It's not your job to enforce your views on people. Let the government handle it, no one elected you. At least in the US, the government has proven the best institution to protect the public while also giving due consideration to people's rights.

>Horrible Romans were so violent. What have they ever done for us? Well, besides roads and the aqueduct, but other than that?

Exactly. The same people who claim about colonialism are the same ones who complain about intertribal warfare when we leave. We should be thanking colonialists for bringing Peace to the places they conquered, a peace which has washed away since decolonization.

>In particular, the Court is doubtful that the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act may be invoked by LinkedIn to punish hiQ for accessing publicly available data; the broad interpretation of the CFAA advocated by LinkedIn, if adopted, could profoundly impact open access to the Internet, a result that Congress could not have intended when it enacted the CFAA over three decades ago.

I didn't realize original intent could be used in courts. How the heck did "original intent" lead to federal abortion and federal gay marriage when all law in letter and in practice had delegated these questions to the states?

>This was still the main AI textbook in 2014 when I did my MSc in the subject

FYI seminal books don't rotate in and out over a five year timespan, it is still the seminal book and will likely continue to be given all the fuel being burned on neural networks that generate more heat than light.

I'm concerned about future powers using data to target me and my family for "re-education camps"

Which VPN is that?
