Not to be a contrarian, but this notion that what people need is a frictionless existence, and anything but. Could and should not be expected. Has already led us to a situation were the new generations, in the first time in history, are dumber an less technologically adept.
We need to change this idea. And start asking people to put in some effort.
Thats a high bar! She is the white witch after all.
I think we might be talking past each other. I was using punishment as synonymous with consequence , my bad. Still against the death sentence thou.
Oh I agree with you that it shouldn’t be considered a valid form of punishment. For a plethora of reasons yours being one of them. Only reason I brought it up, was because I honestly don’t know how the Geneva convention and all the other international laws regarding war and war crimes view, what is effectively the same action, eg murder but after a organised deliberation by a court rather than “in the field” my guess is it would depend on were the war crimminal is prosecuted.
I think that the nuance lost here is, dropping someone from a height to kill them, implies they are in your captivity. Thus no longer active combatants, and protected and killing them in that fashion a war crime in of it self. I am how ever unsure if sentencing them to death in a criminal court, would be considered a war crime. As with Sadam.
Oh cause it’s my favourite emulsion.
Oh I thought you were questioning the practice of whipping your own mayonnaise.
Well, you see, some folks love mayonnaise. Some want the eggs in the mayonnaise to be from free range chickens. Some want to wip their own mayonnaise cause they enjoy the craft and the control over the ingredients origin that it offers.
Haven’t you seen the folks on linkedin? They are bragging about letting AI do their job.(Im not talking about the manual labourers and such.) Just today I learned that doctors using AI to identify cancer are getting worse at identifying it themselves. And yes you should know how to change your oil, bake your own bread and grow your own vegetables. You should also know why the sunset is red and that snails don’t die from eating poisous mushrooms because a liver is required to metabolise it.
