As someone who has taken a polygraph, there’s nuance.

First, they’re unreliable because they can be beat- but neither you or I are beating them, you have to be trained to beat it.

Second, the reason they don’t work is because you can just not talk. But if you’re forced to talk to keep your job, you’re gonna show lots of lying indicators.

Third, it’s not a binary “did you lie”. They’re watching your blood pressure, heart rate, detecting any fidgets; things you subconsciously do when you lie. The person administrating the polygraph will then press you into a confession.

Polygraph is the biggest snake oil in contemporary crime “science” and frankly its infuriating that it still exists and everyone who defends it should be bullied into returning back to sanity.

Edit: Not going to bother responding to the silly replies from armchair psychologists who feel smart “knowing” polygraphs are unreliable. For the vast majority of the population, when answering binary questions, you will answer them differently depending on whether or not you lie. Regardless of whether or not “this is admissible in court”, it’s more than enough to deny someone a clearance renewal. Rub your brain cells together and extrapolate.

Legendary move - peaceful, brings lots of attention to the cause, and dedicated. Congratulations to this man!

The UX of Librewolf sucks ass though. Want to change this setting? Well you can’t, too bad.

You’re right, at what cost…?

1. Game consoles don’t have a duopoly
2. You gotta start somewhere

Honestly I just wanted an excuse to share the post more on Lemmy

It is not satire, it’s a real article from the Washington Post

Honestly if you didn’t reply, I wouldn’t have checked the post to see it got downvoted. Wtf is the point of this community if people are just gonna downvote headlines they don’t like

The craziest thing is this (real) article doesn’t address things like wet bulbs which can be fatal, and no amount of heat tolerance will change that.

So not only is it proof The Washington Post is class traitor garbage, but also that their journalism isn’t even good

This is precisely why posting about every little thing Trump does is a problem

Cross country trade scales the economy way better than doing things locally though

Welcome to the Internet

What percent of immigration is illegal? I’m beginning to suspect Republicans are actually pro immigration (gotta have those slaves) but need to be loudly against it, hence the crackdown on illegal immigrants

This was the original name inspiration

No one outside of China has their data stored there, though.

1. There’s no way to tell if Apple transfers your data there
2. Apple does not clarify how they decide when to transfer your data there
3. You are putting a lot of faith into a system that shows no transparency

https://support.apple.com/en-us/111754

It’s already gone because it’s not disclosed when or why it is moved to servers where the Chinese govt can decrypt it, but I guess it depends on who you’re worried about having your data

No 👏 they 👏 do 👏 not.

Get Apple’s dick out of your ass.

They literally have a history of moving data to government servers and handing over encryption keys: https://thehackernews.com/2021/05/how-apple-gave-chinese-government.html?m=1
