And grand juries are famously easy to persuade, as this is just the prosecutor and whatever evidence they choose to present, there's no defence lawyer involved. The case is either ridiculously thin, or the prosecutor just doesn't know how to do their job.

You're assuming that the supreme court still cares about the spirit or letter of the law. It's just a rubber stamp for whatever the right wants.

Yeah, I personally noticed when there was this whole Thai cave saga, but I'm sure there were signs for decades before that.

Since it's the Atlantic, I'm sure it's bullshit instead of mentioning the real reasons (corporate democrats and media putting their thumbs on the scale whenever one gets in a position to potentially win).

Or do something about the root causes of crime. Sure, there's like a minority of sociopaths that will choose a life of crime no matter what, but the majority of it can be avoided by stuff like investments in education, jobs with good pay and safe third places for youth. But all those things are woke and it can take years for the benefits to show, so governments aren't doing those things.

Not to mention, the app is just the thing that calls the API to the server that runs the actual models, it's not a reflection on how quickly you're improving those models. In fact, there should be little reason to push a new app update once you've built it.

Classic victim blaming.

Oof, yeah, that's definitely something that will need to be looked at when cryotech starts being a thing.

Of course they were. The stuff that was going to incriminate anyone powerful went to either the incinerator or straight to one of Trump's properties.
