But the driver was an innocent victim. Question is – has the car been arrested?

is a one-post thread a thread?!I think that’s a molecule.

I mean, who hasn’t assaulted someone because they were ‘very frustrated’ with a parking machine? And after all, he ‘didn’t mean to’ do it, and he ‘very much regrets it’ – possibly even as much as the previous two (at least) occasions.

Obviously nothing wrong with someone with these kinds of anger issues being behind the wheel of a car…

You can’t have historic buildings because we need people to drive past our shops.

In fairness, though, at least they’re posting something. There’s stuff all else to read on the forum these days.

In the interview, Dudley said “extracting Grenfell from the statistics, actually people dying in house fires is rare. Many, many more people die on the roads driving cars, but we’re not making cars illegal, so why are we stopping houses being built?”There’s a good point hiding in there somewhere, Simon, but I’m afraid you’ve grasped rather the wrong end of it…

It’s not at all obvious to me what it actually does. Just saying that something uses AI doesn’t actually tell you anything at all, without saying what functions the AI provides. Is it using any underlying training philosophy, or can I try out various approaches to see what works for me? Or is it purely based on past data of what has worked, in which case, how is success defined, and where is that data coming from? (If it’s just based on a small number of users to date, I wouldn’t have too much faith in it.) Is it able to adapt to my personal training history, or is it only using what ‘works’ at a population level. Or is it nothing more than a chatbot that can pick out key words and match them to a library of workouts (in which case that seems of minimal usefulness).

I suspect most people on here aren’t going to respond well to the Peloton-style hype language (‘BOOM!’; ‘smashed it!’; ‘champion!’; etc.) – something that’s a bit more matter-of-fact might go down better.

The judge said because he was employing people as a roofer they didn’t send him to jail.Personally, I think those people might be better off not being on a roof with him and his anger issues.

Might be as well to put this up as an article (as you sometimes do with other site updates) – given that forum comments are no longer/not currently being surfaced on the main areas of the site, a lot of regulars might miss your post here.
