True: they're obviously neither a woman nor a man with empathy.

You're obviously not a woman: if you were you'd know that we talk about this stuff all the time, and that it absolutely is not obvious to women in blue states how scary things are in red states.

I recall they lowered guys out of a helicopter on ropes one year, too. It was hilarious to walk around the floor at E3 and see CoD or whatever guys in their fakey-looking booth bro costumes pass real army guys wearing real uniforms passing out enlistment info and ads for America's Army. Why pay booth bros when you can just assign some soldiers you're already paying?

The average Black American is ~1/3 white (because of all the rape of enslaved women, basically) so he's not that much off the average there.

No, they're still racist because their actions (e.g. voting for Trump) increase racial inequality.

The simplest explanation is that they didn't do any tests, and this whole kerfuffle is a very successful act of revenge on the IOC, Khelif, and the rest of the sports world.

True, but largely irrelevant. There is no evidence that Khelif has XY chromosomes aside from an accusation by one corrupt Russian boxing official, made after Khelif beat a Russian boxer. They have not produced the test, said where it was done or what the results were.

Here's an AP News article with lots of information on the IBA and why their claims about Khelif are suspect: https://apnews.com/article/olympics-2024-khelif-russia-boxing-b53b1edda21139d14a572bd35ca440e6

They want them to be so desperate to keep their 3 shitty minimum-wage jobs that they won't complain about mistreatment. It's slavery with extra steps.

 

“Life-and-death decisions relating to patient acuity, treatment decisions, and staffing levels cannot be made without the assessment skills and critical thinking of registered nurses,” the union wrote in the post. “For example, tell-tale signs of a patient’s condition, such as the smell of a patient’s breath and their skin tone, affect, or demeanor, are often not detected by AI and algorithms.”

“Nurses are not against scientific or technological advancement, but we will not accept algorithms replacing the expertise, experience, holistic, and hands-on approach we bring to patient care,” they added.

 

I started editing Wikipedia more seriously over the last couple of months, and this video has a bunch of useful information and how-tos that I wish I had then, and some stuff that I still didn't know. I really like contributing to such a useful resource, and knowing that every little edit I make helps everybody who wants to learn about that topic!
