My wife speaks a bunch of languages and has watched Masterchef in Spanish, Portuguese, plus the US, UK and Israeli versions. Same basic format but totally different cultural expectations. Reality/gameshow TV in the Americas is produced to be cutthroat and bitchy.

it is one of my go-to points - connected to their widespread use of firearms and dire lack of training - that while police have problems everywhere, U.S. police are unusually brutal and incompetent by developed country standards.

Even 6 or 7 years ago I had a slide in my due diligence training pack saying "it's easy to generate fake documents, it's surprisingly easy to generate fake cash but it's difficult to generate fake buildings and it's very difficult to generate fake people"

Can’t find the post now but someone wrote “Every book about a British double agent says “At university he was president of the Friends of Stalin society for two years.” Whilst every book about an American double agent says “ When he bought his fourth Lamborghini his colleagues became suspicious.”

It’s actually worse than this, in that it is not obviously made up, it’s just we are governed by innumerates.

Truly Rishi Sunak’s maths to 18 policy has been validated in spades.
extremely cool and good that the govt is making significant decisions based on obviously made up "facts" that they are too stupid to realise are made up

How likely is ‘likely’? Does ‘likely’ have a higher probability than ‘probable’? I put together a quick quiz so you can see how you interpret probability phrases, then see how you compare with others: probability.kucharski.io
