Its a modernized version of Infinite monkey theorem but instead of typewriters and Shakespeare its importing libraries and Facebook.

I’ve always considered sciences like psychology to be more susceptible to the reproducibility crisis. It seems if someone decides to pursue a career in academia the criteria becomes publishing, and well publish or perish as is goes.

I think some researchers areocing towards things like prerigistering hypothesis and open data+publishing source code for calculations and using that as references in there paper so it can be updated afterwards.

They’re have definitely been a lot of papers where results were later determined to be wrong but is still referenced because well you can’t update a paper from the 1970s.

This is hearsay from friends I’ve never done any serious research or published in journals. As a side note I do enjoy reading taking a scroll through https://retractionwatch.com/

Tax exempt status for religions applies to federal income tax. Sales tax is per state and state taxes vary between states.

I’m not a tax account or attorney, but maybe if they keep the receipts they can file there taxes and report it and maybe get the money back.

Since taxes are filed every year is this the first year they’ve been a pastor or whatever and doesn’t know? If it is their first year and they’re complaining about taxes on apps and phones or whatever, then it sounds like theyre kind of trashy to be honest.

They make fridges, which typically sit in a room until it decides to die. Shareholders got pissy the enormous bill for ecs doesn’t have the correct permissions

Nope, you have to put it back in four wheel drive and drive around them

I’m not sure if you know the answer but since you work in 911 dispatch, how does it work if a person is a suspect in a crime or something? I assume if they would notify your parents/immediate family?

Looks like a borzoi/Russian wolfhound

I think one the biggest sells, especially for these custom rom’s is privacy to be honest. I don’t really trust Google or Apple with the data they probably collect. During COVID parents were being reported to law enforcement for CSAM when sending pictures of there kids medical issues to doctors(Archive Link).

One I guess could argue that sure shit happens when it comes to that scenario, but with the political climate in America combined with the fact that some of the largest tech companies seem to be kowtowing to whatever the current administration is doing, probably makes a lot of people rethink privacy and to find alternatives.

Back when I worked in web hosting I would occasionally get calls mostly from certain European countries and websites mainly doing online gambling which was illegal in those countries. They would always try and demand I hand over the owner of the website and to take it offline.

My response was always the same unless you have a court order from our government than fuck off.

The ones that did have court orders were always interesting cases though and the crazy ones were the ones with court not to take down the website but to plugin a device to monitor all the traffic and every year they would send a new order to let them monitor it for another year
