I don't think it would have to be any different than people getting a bigger tax return at the end of the year. Or like the HST rebates Ontario has been doing where they pay it out I think quarterly?

As it is right now, I've seen the occasional "tax return sale" because businesses know people just got paid a chunk of money and might be impulsive with it. I don't think this is necessarily a bad thing, the demand for everyday items won't change, and people will try and save money regardless of income level.

You’re just saying, human-written software can have bugs.

That's pretty much exactly the point they're making. Humans create the training data. Humans aren't perfect, and therefore the AI training data cannot be perfect. The AI will always make mistakes and have biases as long as it's being trained on human data.

It's certainly lossy

It's probably graded by a computer, and a) or d) is a fake answer, since the automated system doesn't support multiple right answers.

I'm going to go with 25% chance if picking random, and a 50% chance if picking between a) and d).
If it's graded by a human, the correct answer is f) + u)

Thanks for responding. I'm not really a web dev, so I haven't thought about it much.

The tab layout and <div> examples were definitely not things I was thinking about. I guess that's a good incentive to use tags like <section> and <article> instead of divs with CSS classes.

I'm actually a bit color blind myself, so I appreciate sites being high contrast and not relying on color alone for indicators. A surprising number of sites completely break when trying to zoom in and make text bigger too, which is often due to bad floating layouts. Especially if it's resized with JS...

I'm curious what parts would be challenging to use with a screen reader? If a site just has basic links and no JS, I can't really think of anything unless the tab layout is somehow completely shuffled due CSS.

That's actually a decent idea. Imagine if Trump's income was capped at $66k/year, the US median income. He might actually give a shit about income inequality and raising the minimum wage.

Vengeance.js is the latest JavaScript framework, and this candidate has 3 years experience! (Vengeance.js was released 6 month ago) /s

I'm disappointed... It looks like all the x.xxx domains were registered in 2012 and are just parked (or maybe the register reserved them? I can't tell). It would have been fun if this could be a real email.

Except in this case they're defrauding customers instead of corporate like in Office Space... not quite as fun.

My opinion is that including trans people in this sort of study actually reduces the bias, because they're the only people who will have experienced the social impacts of presenting both male and female at different times. All cis-gendered people will be inherently biased towards their own limited experience.

Most of those seem like nonlinear relationships, so it still doesn't make any sense still. The undergrowth would only start becoming an issue when the height gets taller than the egg diameter.
