I think its still possible that I could freely choose my actions and you knowing what they would be would not invalidate that it was an action I choose based on my own free will.

Weed isn't benign. It exasperates amd can induce psychotic mental health conditions much earlier in some people like schizophrenia and bipolar. It is carcinogenic. It does change people mentally affecting their emotional regulation and behaviors even when not high. There are impacts on already stretched health care systems. And what is wrong with wanting to argue. I want someone to give me good reason to think what constitutes a victimless crime isn't some arbitrary line

There is always risk. Having easily accessible weed increases the risk that people will operate vehicles while high or increase number of beds needed in medical systems that refuse to increase beds as inhaling smoke increases cancer risk. I can drive through 100 red lights and never hit anyone but an increased demand for medical care in a system that can't handle it puts me at risk also. I say running a red light is victimless just as smoking weed is also victimless and we have said victimless crimes should not be punishable.

Intent?

I haven't attempted to kill anyone running a red light. So where is the harm

So its a crime to increase risk to society?

There isn't a victim. Just the possible increased risk.

That’s pretty funny, does that include your political enemies?

Can honestly say I've never had a political enemy

Doug Ford government paying for-profit clinic more than hospitals for OHIP-covered surgeries, documents show (www.cbc.ca)

The documents show provincial agency Ontario Health contracted Don Mills Surgical Unit Ltd. at the following per-surgery funding rates in each of the three fiscal years starting from 2020-21:

• $1,264 for each procedure classed as minor complexity (such as cataract surgery)

• $4,037 for each moderate complexity surgery (such as a laparoscopic gallbladder removal)

• $5,408 for each higher-complexity surgery (such as repairing a large tear of a rotator cuff).

The funding rates do not include how much the surgeon bills OHIP for each operation. The physician's billing for a particular OHIP-covered surgery is identical whether it takes place in a hospital or a private clinic. ---

What's the purpose of strategy statements and other "corporate plans" in office culture (lemmy.world)

What exactly is accomplished when corporate culture sits everybody down and has a power point about the strategy, business goals for the next year.

Stuff like saying "our new plan is focusing on areas like key player, resilience and fast resource adaption to better serve customers". Stuff that seems super abstract and boil down to "worker faster or harder" or saying that whats important to the company are "customers, excellent products and people who make products" but said over an hour and mixed in with corporate jargon

It seems like a ton of work goes into these things but its all not usable information. So what is it that these scrum master project managers and higher executives hope to achieve at the end of these calls?

I would like to start using RSS feeds but every client I've searched up has a subscription method of payment. Are there any RSS clients that don't do this?

I see a lot of companies with fresh faced 25 year olds that are running all kinds of AI stuff. Everything from NPT, Vision, organization tools.

What I don't get is how they're doing this with such small teams. How are these young companies building out AI services?

Why are YouTube comments so much different than any other comments made online (lemmy.world)
 

YouTube comment sections are weirdly positive always. It could be a video of some horrible crime and the comments will be about how great the channel is and encouraging the channel to keep making more videos. When j visit actual fan pages anywhere else online there are always a mix of opinions. But youtube is constantly full of obsequious people
