Sounds difficult to test for. Thinking about a Pilot I think there would be data points you could measure on the job that predict likelihood of making a bad judgement. For example heart rate variability, cortisol levels, skin moisture. I th

Hmm perhaps decree a method/routine to processes like nail gunning. A bit like the Japanese rail staff with their pointing routines. Film the worksite or send surprise inspectors to catch workers too lazy/reckless about their nail

I agree Safety is the top priority. Don't risk people with drugs traces in their blood; it may degrade their competence. Also don't risk a guy that didn't sleep last night working - his competence will be degraded. I proposed

I have a solution to prevent this, which doesn't prejudice Mike for having a bit of weed 2 weeks ago camping. Also it will filter out those unfit to work from legal medication, or tiredness. Make workers do a 30 second ability test b

Stupid analogy, the worker can be told to remove the headphones during paid hours, non-compliance makes you fired. We are talking about whether what you do outside of work, that is isolated from work, should get you fired.

This isn't worth reading. None of the details you'd like to learn, like how much would he get paid compared to the delivery cost he pays.

I wanted to make Firefox my default Android browser, out of principle. After 6 weeks, I uninstalled it and am back in Brave. The Firefox address/omni bar seemed designed to lean 90% toward a search engine search, even if I had complete

Brave is excellent at blocking ads by default (and based off Chrome). Its tracking prevention is a double edged sword: lots of sites with reCAPTCHA make me prove I'm human, because Google can't leverage any browsing footprint to g

True of nearly any auction. Actual buyers stop bidding when they think the price has exceeded the value to them. If the music stops with a fake bidder holding the bag, the auction will have to be re-held, now with increased scepticism by re

Yes you rephrased that very well. If your plan to build intelligence is by copying how nature does it, well then you'll need to build a "nature" runtime that can emulate the universe. You can either do that slowly or inaccura
