Johnson, a first-term mayor, campaigned on a promise to end the use of ShotSpotter, putting him at odds with police leaders who have praised the system.
They argue that crime rates – not residents’ race – determine where the technology is deployed.
And due to decades of racist policing focusing on communities based on residents' race those crime rates are based on exactly that.
This is why police forces love AI; they can feed the systems data based on their own history racist policing and absolve themselves of responsibility when the garbage coming out matches the garbage going in.
It's just a blatant hit piece against the Democratic candidate days before an election in a shameless attempt to suppress left wing turnout and try to help the Republican candidate win. They did spend an entire sentence glossing over the existence of the Republican in the race, though:
His opponent, Republican candidate Mazi Pilip, also has pro-Israel credentials: She served in the Israel Defense Forces.
Yes, that's right; the Republican candidate was an actual fucking IDF paratrooper. And the Intercept wanted her to win because of delusional fantasies of an anti-Israel progressive winning the Democratic primary in June and then going on to win the general against (the now incumbent) pro-Israel Republican moderate in a moderate, pro-Israel district; fantasies that could not come true if the Democrat was incumbent.
The nomination approval process, where white people and men sailed through while non-white women where put through the wringer with some of them not even making it, also delivered that message.
Tether printed at least five billion USDT out of thin fucking air in January. There's no liquidity in the system, advertising like this is intended to trick you into being that exit liquidity. If you have currency you can actually use to purchase goods and services please don't give it to some crypto scammer for internet magic beans.
three Russian sources with knowledge of the discussions told Reuters.
...
A U.S. source denied there had been any official contact and said Washington would not engage in talks that did not involve Ukraine.
So this is just complete bullshit intended to undermine Ukraine's sovereignty by falsely suggesting the US is negotiating for them.
These are not the same thing. "Children" are people under 18, if the deal included people who were 18 it would have been false to call those adults "children". They could have said, "women, children, and 18 year old men" but that would have been even clunkier than "people aged 18 and younger" as the latter was clearly the cohort intended by the deal.
GNM considers anyone aged 17 or under to be a child (this is in line with the UN convention on the rights of the child, the UK’s Information Commissioner’s Office guidance on children and the GDPR and its age appropriate design code of practice for online services, and most criminal law legislation in England and Wales).
