FL police use A.I. to identify a vehicle theft suspect from surveillance video. Based on an "85% match" they arrest and charge Jalil Richardson. He spends 3 months in jail. He loses his job, his home, and custody of his kids.
Richardson lives in N.C.
He's never been to Florida. And his timesheet shows him at work at the time of the crime. No one checked before charging him. https://t.co/2AcQYwq30f

I fail to see the point of a "book club". Once I have made a universally valid judgement about a book's aesthetic merit, there is nothing left to discuss
In the light of #Easter, let us allow ourselves to be amazed by Christ! Let us allow our hearts to be transformed by his immense love for us! Let those who have weapons lay them down!

mary ruefle was right when she said that people would rather read an essay about poetry than read a poem. it reminds me of when people in a museum read the explanatory caption before having their own experience of the art. you fear not "getting it" when you should fear not living
I disagree with Timothee Chalamet about opera (crowd cheers), because all art is essentially bad (crowd boos), in the Culture Industry sense! (crowd cheers) except for one medium, which encompasses all previous forms (crowd nodding expectantly), “gaming” (booing intensifies)
