  1. The "healthcare providers" are our true heroes! on California Healthcare Provider Wants Illness-Predicting Algorithm · · Score: 1

    Because opposing to what all you nanny-state friends out there claim, they care very much for your health.
    In that they make extremely sure you are never ever sick... in any way that they have pay you a single cent.

  2. Hasn’t anybody noticed the Es? on FBI Wants You To Solve Encrypted Notes From Murder · · Score: 1

    Nearly every letter ends in E. Many even in SE or TE. CBE and BE are also not rare in the first one.
    There is also a distinct shortage of certain letters for most of the text.
    Numbers are generally unencrypted. There’s even a ½ in there.

    I can not imagine why a simple statistical analysis (or even better: generic parallel pattern recognition, like with a neural net that’s big enough) wouldn’t render something useful for this text. It’s full of patterns.

    But remember: There are mental diseases, which make you think you say or write something that makes sense, while actually it doesn’t. Like those people using only normal words, and even grammar, but constructing sentences that make absolutely no sense.

    And you know what they say: If you interpret long enough, you will always come up with something that makes the sense you want. :)
