"Driver hits unleashed dog that darted into street" is just a Tuesday, but "autonomous vehicle hits^w makes contact with unleashed dog that darted into street" is a headline because it is so rare.
I'm not so sure there have even been enough incidents to decide if Waymos are more or less likely to run over an animal, but I *STRENUOUSLY* object to trying to soften it with 'made contact with' in the press release.
On the flip side, I have enjoyed the few Canadian shows that made it to the U.S. (especially during the writer's strike).
On the other hand, If I have an ultralight and realize I need to move over 200 people at once, I know I'd better talk to a domain expert rather than trying to tie 250 ultralights together with kite string.
Unless the part of the penalty that doesn't compensate Indian consumers and businesses is the punitive damages to assure no repeats of the behavior.
Well, right in the summary it says ChatGPT gave the kid a "pep talk" encouraging him to actually carry out the suicide.
Or actually invite reporters to secret chats.
Yes, there are corridors and city pairs in the U.S. where high-speed rail could get people from one city to another quickly and efficiently. But what do they do when they get there? How do they get around?

Thus 5x3 becomes 5x5x5 or 3x3x3x3x3 instead of "STFU and memorize your times tables."
I'm fine with the repeated addition. My objection is the OR in your statement. Apparently not. The question was 5x3 and the kid wrote 5+5+5=15 and got marked wrong with no explanation because the teacher wanted 3+3+3+3+3=15. So I guess that you would have had a 50% chance of being marked wrong on a 2nd grade arithmatic worksheet as well, as absurd as that is. Correct answer notwithstanding.
BTW, that's not at all new. We covered multiplication that way in the 3rd grade back in 1975. Memorizing the table was just to make it quicker. I quickly "discovered" the commutative property while looking at the multiplication table and cut my memorization load in half. The part that confused the father was why is 5x3 = 5+5+5=15 "wrong".
As for 37+55, we decomposed that in the '70s as well, but I soon decided the easier decomposition was 37+55= 87+5 = 90+2=92. So I would say that meme was just someone wanting to complain. Of course the "old way" ends up in 30+50+10+2 anyway.
Shut up and memorize was not in practice during the education of the parents of today's students.
No, because a surgeon can tell you WHY he washes his hands and point to the historical evidence for the practice. He won't say "God tells us to wash our hands".
I wouldn't call it a GOOD solution, more a default if nobody comes up with something better.
It would have reduced it to an extent that it would be as good as stopped.
The fact that surgeons today wouldn't think of operating without washing their hands. I never said it was a quick victory.
It was my example. It came from a photograph of the worksheet posted to Reddit by the child's father, who was wondering why the answer was 'wrong'.
Surely you don't expect the 2nd graders to start on Clifford algebras any time soon. They need to learn to walk before they run. Note that by the time you're multiplying vectors and matrices the process involved is sufficiently different from multiplying real numbers that not being commutative is not going to be an issue. I recall my high school math teacher demonstrating non-commutative multiplication. I was not confused in spite of having figured out the commutative nature of simple multiplication in elementary school.
Sure, under the hood, but the end user is more concerned with the application than he is with how it got there.
Beware of the Turing Tar-pit in which everything is possible but nothing of interest is easy.
