ICE just blatantly violated the law and arrested sitting Chicago Alderperson Jessie Fuentes while seeking to illegally arrest a patient in a hospital. Fuck these fascists.

First we created a culture where you don't have to understand basic statistical ideas and methods to analyze quantitative data from samples. This was a wonderful innovation, as it removed barriers to publishing whatever the fuck you wanted. Using "AI" to just invent the data is the next logical step
