I forget who first said it, From the water's perspective it's a pothole is perfectly shaped to hold it. It exactly contours to the shape of the water, so must have been created for that water.
Now, we know that this is a backwards way to look at things. So why do we look at the universe that way?

Pass IT off to that unpaid intern they conned into working during the summer between college semesters. The business administration major intern.
Or use the CEO's spoiled brat as the head of IT because the kid "knows computers".

And because there's no precedent saying it's bad, there can never be a precedent. Because the case is dismissed for not having precedent which in turn doesn't generate new precedent.

An idea I had once would be to transition from glorifying the hoarding of wealth to a sort of leaderboard of who gained the most this year, with very high taxes to keep people from hoarding.
But the dragons don't want their hoards to diminish, and see anything that prevents the rapid growth of the hoard as diminishing it. We need a modern St. George. Likely in the form of an empowered and fully staffed IRS.

From my understanding, they could only track the story as the people were in the MRI listening to it. And it took hours of training data before they could do that.

Yeah, no.
Not with this technique.
To get every neuron you'd need a very invasive implant.
Hell, this technique can be ruined by just moving your head.
It also needs hours of training data, pre-selected training data. So while this is kind of cool, it's not mind reading, and it's not coherent thoughts.

I mean, right now the machine can tell if you're paying attention to a pre-selected, silent film by watching the visual cortex.
We're still a long way from reading any coherent thought.
