Even ICE respects the immense utility of minivans.
Illegal causally steps out to his car. ICE was waiting outside and nabs him. He never saw it coming. If I were an illegal I’d self-deport. A lot of upside: Free flights, $1K bonus and a chance to return legally. Otherwise, you get deported and banned. https://t.co/vRL4aab6le

I don't know why this has to be said, but tip for new parents: Never use your phone to entertain your children and absolutely never let them hold it. Some parents use their phones as digital pacifiers and their kids end up begging and nagging for it.

I can't make fun of the 6 7 thing because me and the other nerd boy in middle school were all about 42 after we discovered Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

"Progress in chess AI was steady. Equivalence to humans was sudden."
"For the first 120 years of steady engine improvement, horses didn't notice at all. Then, between 1930 and 1950, 90% of the horses in the US disappeared. Progress in engines was steady. Equivalence to horses was sudden."

How is it so good at schematic labelling? Does it call a labelling tool to lay them on cleanly? #Gemini

While the RS list is of course biased, nothing precludes others from making a news source that sticks to the facts and even ends up being clearly more reliable than e.g. the NY Times. This of course requires restraint on the part of the editors, and funders who understand this.

All that said, it's hard to come up with a significantly better policy than RS. Abandoning RS policy would lead to a flood of cranks and increase the warring. If you want your facts represented, ask yourself why is there no reliable source covering it?

Anyway, when anyone else tries to challenge this, they will ultimately lose. New editors will quickly get frustrated and frequently act out, and get banned. Experienced editors have their hands tied and, if they get involved, will be harassed by the article's defenders.

Motivated editors defending the "RS" view will not just purge all contrary messaging that is unsupported by Reliable Sources, they often even end up tailoring the article to read like a spin piece. (which is really an unnecessary mistake: any intelligent reader can sense it)

I've edited Wikipedia a great deal, mostly on physics stuff. But when it comes to controversial issues (which I touched only rarely), these Reliable Sources are what ultimately determines how any controversial article is fated to turn out.
Here are all of Wikipedia's "reliable source". They include MSNBC NYT Huffpost Reddit Snopes Politifact Rolling Stone The Atlantic Propublica NPR GLAAD https://t.co/WvT6oEn7ag

They gave me access to the Gemini video thing. Not bad, it isn't quite getting how strong I want the sigma face to be.
