My best friend, who is also my partner in this school project just linked me the presentation and then proceeded to go offline.
I HAVE NO IDEA WHICH SLIDES I HAVE TO PRESENT.

Knowing Belgium, everyone will vote for themselves out of mistrust for anyone else, and some kind of weird direct democracy coalition will need to be formed from 11 million or so individuals.

No, but Ghostery, BetterPrivacy and some toying around in browser settings and about:config to prevent firefox from sending copy of every crash report to them will help a lot.

...now Google can't find me.

Then you get cities like Paris where you should basically just kill yourself already.

WTH is "the average tablet user"? A Starbucks-frequenting, selfie-taking, vapid peroxide blonde teenage girl?
As a Best Buy worker, I wish this was the case. The average tablet user around here is a middle aged technophobe who wants to play candy crush saga on facebook, and doesn't understand the paradox of choosing a tablet over the "magic devil box". Yes, those words were used, verbatim, by one of my customers. Yes, that customer bought a tablet. No, I don't understand how the tablet is also not a "magic devil box."
...

Are you in America? I heard bad things happen there.
Yes, although to be fair, I don't live in a very nice city. Neighborhoodscout.com ranks my city's safety level at 6/100, with 100 being perfect safety. Across the state, Detroit is 2/100, Flint is 1/100. In comparison, New York City is a 22/100 (although certain boroughs are much safer. Queens is a 53/100. Bronx is also 22/100.) Chicago is an 8/100 (although the suburbs are considerably safer. Homer Glen is an 85/100!)

*A wild New Yorker appears*

First off, saying the whole city is 22 is inaccurate: Manhattan's official name is New York County (Thus making it New York, New York, NY), so you are only reading Manhattan. Secondly, both Manhattan and the Bronx suffer from some fairly significant statistical diversion; both have rich and poor parts. Thirdly, Queens is nice, but the rich white republican borough is Staten Island, with 63/100. Fourthly, the city average is 39.4. Fifthly, the violent crime rate is both the lowest it's ever been, and dropping. Less than a murder a day is impressive for city with the population of a small nation.

Info/New York dump over.

The point is, though, I live in a shithole of a city.

Just checked my city. 13/100, which is weird. It doesn't seem that bad at all :L

My city is 7/100. They want me to subscribe for the rating for my neighborhood. fuckthat.jpg.png.gif

Though apparently the town I go to university in is a 13/100, despite having a grand total of 34 violent crimes per year (which still seems rather high). I call inaccurate statistics.

22/100, apparently. Given the rising number of sexual assaults that were what prompted me to open the thread for posting in the first place, I guess I'm not surprised. This goddamn city.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

Augusta, Georgia is a 4/100

That's surprising...

Either way, I live here soooo... Yeah.
