    Police investigate deaths of two Gauteng teenagers in Sabie

    In this case it genuinely doesn't matter unfortunately. Unless some extraordinary evidence comes to light that gives another explanation, they know the person who did the deed is dead. Likely because he realised what a horrible thing he did. No trial or court case or the facts emerging from it...

    Police investigate deaths of two Gauteng teenagers in Sabie

    Why do you think the law treats the two differently? Could it not be because why someone did something is actually quite important?

    Geordin Hill-Lewis won't grant Cape Town departmental management additional budget for salaries unless they implement AI

    Do you think data scientists reads a bunch of numbers and magically comes about a conclusion? They don't. They write a bunch of code that tests hypothesis against data and checks whether the hypothesis is correct or not. So for example. Is there a correlation between X and Y, is there a...

    AI is a productivity multiplier. For a diligent person who wants to get their work done, they will do more far more work. If you give it to someone who is already a net drain, they will produce far more slop.

    Geordin Hill-Lewis won't grant Cape Town departmental management additional budget for salaries unless they implement AI

    Nope. Every single new model that has been released has gotten cheaper for the same task. If you look at 5.6 Luna, which is the dirty cheap model that you use for things like generating the name of a session, it is on par of intelligence (that is the ability to do stuff), with the previous...

    Teacher salaries must be cut in half

    You would need to do more than that. You basically need a constitutional amendment to fix education, because schools are simultaneously forced to give an "education" to kids who clearly don't want it and are not able to discipline them effectively.

    Teacher salaries must be cut in half

    Well what is then? Here are the relevant sections from the education department's diagnostic report. Specifically on maths education. Maths literacy is a joke of a subject. It is retarded level. Despite the absolutely pathetically low standard, the education dept claims it is a good thing that...

    The man who makes R60,000 per month selling 10 large bananas for R10 in a small town in South Africa

    Retail has much higher overheads. Also, remember these guys are getting the grades that the exporters and retailers do not want.

    South Africa's heavy-duty electric trucks to get battery swapping stations

    How much does it cost to maintain? How much does it cost to move? How stable is the price of the "fuel"? In the article: You get a payback in a few months due to the operating costs being substantially lower. I don't really see the point of the battery swapping tbh. We have 1.5 MW...

    Its the foids. https://www.mcgill.ca/newsroom/channels/news/are-men-or-women-more-likely-enjoy-aggression-porn-337544 This is backed up by what pr0nhub tells us. And then you have the den of filth that is female literature. Why do you think 50 Shades of Grey is a best seller.
