Still not enough info. The race is legally a tie if the times are within a certain (I think a millisecond) interval, and with runners this similar in ability, the probability that nobody wins is non-zero.

Employers love it because it gives them plausible legal cover for two essential freedoms:

If they like you anyway, they can hire you and defend any discrimination claims with the fact that you had the strongest resume.

Whenever they stop liking you, they can expose the lie and fire you on the spot for good cause.

So really, it's a win-win situation for both you and your prospective employer.

A Braille-to-speech app. Point the camera at the Braille part of a sign, and be told what it says.

Intended user base: Users who can't read due to sight impairment, can't read Braille directly either for whatever reason, and couldn't find a general-purpose OCR app capable of reading the ordinary text.

They don't deserve my opinion if they're that irresponsible with the data. I just stopped doing them when I learned that.

Exactly. It's merely our human preference for those types of files that allow them to work at all.

HRT was originally used to treat menopausal women at risk for osteoporosis, who are at higher risk due to being old.

I'm aware that transgenders also have a higher than otherwise expected mortality (whether taking hormones or not), but they may not be numerous enough to move the needle against millions of old women.
