I seem to remember some chess game that was written that accounted for the memory drum hardware that used it which i would think would be the gold standard... might be this one https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1K_ZX_Chess

I agree, EV's aren't a complete climate solution. Do car company's or trump need more capitulation though? Haven't they gotten enough.

What did we get, cause it sure does seem like nothing.

I was ready to get up in arms, but this is actually good news. It looks like at one point in tiny text under our national parks it would say "state park" -- which doesn't make sense in canada, they are fixing that.

Although the locations were titled "provincial park" in large text, in small print, many across the country were labelled as "state parks" — a longstanding practice, according to the company.

However, that language came under increased scrutiny in the wake of U.S. President Donald Trump's repeated threat that he wants to annex Canada against the wishes of Canada's political leaders and widespread public opinion.

Finally some good news! Although I'm sort of surprised this didn't exist already

20 years, 15%. That is a very low amount. Title is terrible.

It seems like you maybe thinking this is saying police do nothing, it isn't.

No consistent association means the data doesn't back up higher or lower funding having an impact on crime. It doesn't say anything about rates when the funding is zero or when funding is very high.

I think it means can't pay to reduce crime, or not pay and expect crime to go up.

Testing for zero would be extremely difficult, because we only have one Toronto sized city in Canada.

I'm guessing here but I suspect that there's a significant number of places with zero police presence that have very little crime. And this article suggests that there are very well funded police presences where crime still happens.
