Inflation isn't a deterrent to savings, it just means you have to put your savings somewhere that it also does work, i.e. invested in something. Having a non-zero inflation rate encourages investment, which encourages economic growth. This is good. But it's not the main reason we need constant inflation.

The reason we need constant inflation is because deflation is extremely harmful; it causes debts to grow which can make people and businesses insolvent. The Fed has a 2% inflation target because low inflation rates are manageable and because 2% is high enough that a decrease still won't go negative.

expensive quality vehicle are made in China, sure. Tesla and such, they'd pass USA standards.

But those cheap car-shaped gocarts and golf carts you see doing hilarious rolls and ricochets in youtube videos, no

or people like you who can't do math and realize the carbon contribution from U.S. coal plants is now negligible

In general, documents are considered hearsay and are inadmissible. There are exceptions to the hearsay rule that allow them to be introduced, for example public records that are made in the normal course of business, but police reports are explicitly and specifically excluded from those exceptions. It might be possible to introduce a police report as evidence if the officer who wrote it is present to testify to its authenticity and accuracy, and to be cross-examined about its contents, but if the officer is there it's easier to avoid the hearsay question entirely by just having the officer testify.

Note that this applies not just to written police reports but also to bodycam footage. You still need someone to testify that the footage is authentic and accurate, and available to be cross-examined about it. With bodycam footage I suppose that could be either the officer or a technician responsible for collecting and archiving the footage.

In the case of an AI-generated summary of the footage, if the officer checked and edited the output I think it would be exactly the same as the officer's self-written report. If the officer didn't check and edit the output, then it would be a mechanical transformation of the bodycam footage and you'd need someone to testify to the accuracy of that transformation, as well as the authenticity of the footage. I don't think anyone could honestly testify that the transformation is guaranteed to be correct and accurate. In any case, though, the defense could always just review the footage to point out any inaccuracies in the summary. Most likely the summary would be ignored completely and the bodycam footage would be used directly, after appropriate testimony about its authenticity.

Nonsense, kids can be raised to be properly functioning adults instead of adult babies seeking to sponge off others and be lawless which by the way is a major pillar of a particular political party in the USA.

Computers and automation continue to CREATE jobs as it always has.

Loser spotted.

Get a life, quit moping.

Makes sense to me.

No, you just replied to a AC talking out of his ass with your fanboisms. Ford is losing a lot of money on EV, even Tesla just had lowest profit in 2 years, plummeted by 37 percent.

EV is dying around the world where safety standards have to be met. If you want a glorified go-cart that will tip over if it bumps something... you won't be buying such an illegal thing in USA.

"Women over 40 have the lowest birth rate" shouldn't come as a shock to anyone

Older does tend to mean wiser, after all. Well... okay, for some people.

Destroying middle class has predictable consequence of tanking birth rate. News at 11.

"We must have constant inflation or people might, you know, save!"

Then... basics cost (a lot) more and mid- to low-tier wages don't even come close to keeping up

Brutal housing, education, medical, food, vehicle, and fuel costs, crushing taxes on the lower tier workers... gee, sounds like a great circumstance to bring some ever-more-expensive rug rats into.

The "American Dream" is deader than Trump's diaper contents for a large swath of those of an age to be pumping out crotch goblins. But hey: The stock market is doing Great!

Or perhaps it's just that no one wants to hump someone with their pants falling off their butt — or otherwise dressing like a refugee.

Obligatory: get off my lawn.

Yep. Such a surprise.

Being a mindless fanboi does not actually make you insightful. You know that, right?

Thanks. As a CS type with an engineering PhD in the IT area and as a follower of AI research for about 35 years now, I like to think that I am somewhat informed about the capabilities, and more often lack thereof, of "AI". Any type of "insight" (and "informed" falls under that) is completely alien to any AI we have, except, with strong limits, automated deduction. And that gets bogged down in complexity already for very simple things and must be regarded as a failed approach for anything not very specialized.

Early access is a gamble on the honor and capabilities of the publisher. Just expect, say, 50% miss and 50% where you actually get do experience the evolution to a good game. For me, this is worth it and I have done it quite a few times now. If you do not like that gamble, do not buy early access. It is not like the good games coming out of the process will be unavailable later, they will just be more expensive.

Agreed.
