You can’t ‘learn concepts by repetition’, that is not how learning works. You can learn a concept & repeat its application to be faster at it.

And that’s the problem. What if the student didn’t catch the concept during the lesson? He or She needs help by a guardian or be punished for not completing the task.

Same thing with the supposed self management skills. What if the student fails at it? He or she needs help by a guardian or will be punished.

At the end of the day homework is a tool to offload tasks of the school to the guardians of the student. A schools system, that relies on homework, is a system that fails in its task of creating a level playing regardless of socioeconomic background of the student.

Germany also has laws criminalizing insults. You can actually be prosecuted for calling someone an asshole, say. Americans tend to be horrified when they learn that. I wonder if feelings in that regard may be changing.

I don’t care about the feelings of Americans reading this. Tbh

Germany is a western liberal democracy, same as the US.

On the other hand I’m horrified, that you seem to equate a quick insult with Deepfake-Porn of Minors.

The police would also seize the records of internet services. I’d think some people would have concerns about the level of government surveillance here; perhaps that should be addressed.

Arguably the unrestricted access of government entities to this kind of data is higher in the US then the EU.

How does that relate to encryption, for example? Some services may feel that they avoid a lot of bother and attract customers by not storing the relevant data. Should they be forced?

There are many entities that store data about you. Maybe the specific service doesn’t cooperate. But what about the server-hoster, maybe the ad-network, maybe the app-store, certainly the payment processor.

If the police can layout how that data can help solve the case, providers should & can be forced by judges to give out that data to an certain extent. Both in the US and the EU

Does the German police commonly investigate this?

Insults? No, those are mostly a civil matter not a criminal one

(Deepfake-) Porn of Minors? Yes certainly

1.) Germany has civil laws giving a person depicted similar rights as the creator of an image. It is also an criminal offense publishing images, that are designt to damage an persons public image, Those aren’t perfect, mainly because there wording is outdated, but the more general legal sentiment is there.

2.) The police traces the origin through detective work. Social Cycles in schools aren’t that huge so p2p distribution is pretty traceable & publishing sites usually have ip-logs.

A criminal court decides the severity of the punishment for the perpetrator. A civil court decides about the amount of monetary damages, that were caused and have to be compensated by the perp or his/her legal guardian.

People simply forwarding such material can also be liable (since they are distributing copyrighted material) & therefore the distribution can be slowed or stopped.,

3.) It gives the police a reason to investigate, gives victims a tool to stop distribution & is a way to compensate the damages caused to victims

Wants that the concerns of people are taken seriously, but uses alt right dogwhistles like ‘immigration is a problem’ & ‘globalist are destroying this country’. Both are absolut non-problems of the common folk, but are used in line with real problems, like rising cost of living.

You, sir, are a clown.

"Everyone is struggling with too much screen time,” said Ludivine, a cardiology nurse, as she had her hair cut into a bob, leaving her phone out of sight in her bag. “I voted in favour, this could be a solution.”

I find it always funny, that you can read the narcissism & projection so clearly. “I have a phone addiction and I have recognised it. Now I am expecting everyone around me to restrain themself, to compensate for my lack of selfcontrol”

And it’s always ‘the children’. If you don’t want your child to have access to a screen, don’t give it one. Society isn’t responsible to manage the screen time of your toddler. You are.

If you had to boil down, the german constitution into one short sentence, it would be ‘Never again’.

So displaying the german flag at such an occasion, is acually one of the few occasions where it is appropriate to use it in an political context IMHO.

And as a bonus point it gives nazis a taste of there own medicine, by taking symbols & language used by the opposition for your own movement. But in an non-stupid way this time.

He does and he is pretty much talking out of his arse. Every thing that is written down In aviation usually has a really solid foundation, on why it is written down in that way.

I don’t say that a plainly wrong maintenance guide is not to blame here. I’m saying that the much more likely reason, lies in less definable areas. Like bad maintenance crew training or undiscovered faults in the maintance processes, like storing badly labeled bolts with similar threading but different tolerances near each other.

You couldnt even get money for your information

Well, you could. Taking part in surveys in exchange of monetary compensation is a side hustle for many.

And on the other side is sourcing data a huge expense for many research endeavours.

That’s why everybody is buying from Google & Facebook. Because they offer it for relative low cost.

Nah. Things like this aren’t meant to have a large appeal. It aims to expoilt the few customer with lack of financial control. ‘Just not buying’ doesn’t really hurt the company since it didn’t really cost anything in the first place. It is (like a scam) designed to filter out financially irresponsibile people and extract as much money as possible from them.

In Germany about 60 people are shot per year by police

According to whom? The officially reported figure lies between 5 & 15 fatal shots fired by police officers per year, with 15 being a sharp outlier.

Obviously it’s better if no one got shot but let’s not overexaggerate the risk, like has been happening in this thread and is what I’m responding to.

The thread you are responding to talks about the track record of US police officer not the all around risks of being alive. So let’s look at the track record of US police officer. A US police officer is 200x more likely to shoot somebody, then his German counter part (adjusted for population). How high would you put that number, before it is worth discussing to you? How many people have to die, that you are willing to discuss this issue?

Dude it’s is human life your are talking about. Every death that could’ve be prevented, is a death to much. 8000 dead People is a lot of death. Especally if you compare it to countries like Germany, GB or Sweden, where the number of fataly shot people isn’t even in the hundreds in the same time frame.

Many conifers don’t root downwards, but sideways instead. That is one of the reasons why storms hit monoculture forests so hard. The root network is just to shallow to withstand strong winds.

As a Data Scientist I can say: The present danger from AI isn’t the the singularity. That’s science fiction. It’s the lack of comprehension what an AI is & the push to involve it more and more into certain decision making processes.

Current AIs are at there cores just statistical models, that assign probabilities to answers, based on previously observed data.

Governments and cooperations around the globe try to use these models to automate decisions. One massive problem here is the lack of transparency and human bias in the data.

For example, when a cooperation uses an AI to determine who should be fired. You get fired, you try to complain, but you just get the answer the maschine had a wide variety of input data & you should have worked harder.

We experienced in the past, that AIs focus on things we don’t necessarily want them to focus on. In the example from above maybe your job performance was better then your colleges Dave, but you are a PoC and Dave is white. In the past PoCs were more prone to get fired, so the AI decided, that you are the most probable answer to the question ‘Who should we fire?’.

If a human would have made the decision you could interview him and discover the underlying racism in this decision. Deciphering the decision of an AI is next to impossible.

So we slowly take away our ability to address wrongs in our burocratic processes, by cementing them into statistical models & thereby removing our ability to improve our societal values. AI has the potential to grind societies progress to a halt & drag easily fixable problems decades or centuries into the future.
