Unless the essay is brilliant to two humans, in which case the computer is corrected. The computer only really decides whether a second opinion is needed.

How about something like this?

It's a myth that got perpetuated for a few reasons:

1. There was one case in Minnesota in 1988 where a ruling on an assault case was based on the defendant's martial arts experience.

2. Long before the US was familiar with something other than boxing, servicemen were supposed to register their martial arts training with their service. This was more about training QA.

3. A few high-profile boxing matches would have the contestants register with a sheriff as a deadly weapon - but it was a matter of publicity.

4. Some shady martial arts instructors offer to register their students, and produce a license card - all for a reasonable fee.

A toaster is something you *can* fix. It's not like cancer or something else where you have little to nothing control over it. You can just do it, if you really want to.

Wait, were you disagreeing? I can't tell.

If you're depressed or fat, and don't care for it, go get help.

Under the "Discussion" preferences, there are two options I've found helpful:

The first is "Retrieve (few|more|many) comments". I think "many" is the new default, and "few" was the old default. The switch is probably why turning it off and then back on loads all of the comments.

The second is "Get (highest rated|oldest) comments first". The default is "highest rated", which causes it to load the best comments, but then it scrambles to dynamically stuff subsequent comments where they fit. Switching to "oldest" loads the comments in order, eliminating the script that arranges things. This has reduced my load time to a few seconds, an improvement over almost a minute, excluded hanging scripts.

(Of course, if that doesn't help, there's always "Enable dynamic discussions = false"

This makes me picture Elmer Fudd in a leisure suit.

In general it is compatible - but only in one direction. You can load MSOffice n documents in MSOffice n+1 but not the other way around.

So, you don't lose any of your own data, and your information sources are still valid. Unfortunately, companies who rely on your data now need to upgrade or find another provider. Their backwards compatibility is like a checkvalve, forcing every customer in one direction if they want to stay in the game.

The new judge is connect socially to the judge they are reviewing. As you mentioned, the old judge requested them. That's bias enough, but it doesn't necessarily reflect on the group itself.
