  • Have y'all seen the clip where a reporter at alligator aushwitz asks him how long detainees will be held there, and he doesn't understand the question, gets it repeated, and then still doesn't understand so starts rambling about how much he loves Florida and will be there as long as he can. He also takes the opportunity to say the oval office wasn't well cared for, but he's cleaned up and made it a "beautiful diamond".

  • Your instance has nothing to do with the communities you engage with. There is no reason to try to duplicate communities on each instance. The entire point of federation is that we all get to talk to one another.

    Your scenario would be like only emailing people with .Hotmail accounts.

  • I would prefer that as a community, we acknowledge the existence of this bias in healthcare data, and also acknowledge how harmful that bias is while using adequate resources to remedy the known issues.

    There is a more specific word for it: Institutional racism.

    Institutional racism, also known as systemic racism, is a form of institutional discrimination based on race or ethnic group and can include policies and practices that exist throughout a whole society or organization that result in and support a continued unfair advantage to some people and unfair or harmful treatment of others. It manifests as discrimination in areas such as criminal justice, employment, housing, healthcare, education and political representation.[1]

  • Why is there a lack of robust training data across skin colors? Could it be that people with darker skin colors have less access to cutting edge medical care and research studies? Would be pretty racist.

    There is a similar bias in medical literature for genders. Many studies only consider males. That is sexist.

  • I do use RSS feeds as well. Another good recommendation, but they're easily too much as well. I can't rely on my inner circle telling me about important things. Unfortunately we often disagree on those kinds of things.
