This is naive. You are arrested for a crime you didn't commit. The prosecution charges you with a serious crime with punishment of years in prison. You lawyer can't guarantee you'll be found not guilty and you'll be in…
A lot of them don't use those scanners ... they get the clerk to scan all their tickets instead.
I've walked out of the store and left my stuff on the counter when I realized the person ahead of me had about 50 tickets to scan. Multiple times. I'm not waiting for 10+ minutes for them to scan all their tickets and…

Safety advocates (I.e. fire experts) are on board with changing the Ontario building code to no longer require multiple stair wells in new structures below a certain number of floors because of the lowered risk factors.…
I’m only upset that we have an over abundance of fire fighters now and are looking for ways to keep them busy. Retraining as a combination of EMT and Fire for instance.

I've never seen a wealth tax proposal where "wealth" was defined as ~400K in assets. They tend to start in the millions with generous carve outs for IRAs and primary residences.
Worse, the constant AI scraping is actually costing content providers additional money for no return. At least Google/Bing/Yahoo scraping would then be used to provide links back to your content.
