Forgive me for being even more pedantic, but the person who received the self-destructing messages was Dan Briggs, who was replaced by Jim Phelps on season 2. Ethan Hunt only got the job on the first movie of the series.
It's still widely perceived as "red" both by the general population and in media. The fact that it still has autocratic one-party system is seen as a proof of communism, while the truth is that they actually implement very few socialistic ideas nowadays in terms of workers' rights, social protection, job protection, etc. Take Iceland for instance, it's far closer to the ideas of communism than China now.
Joey can get technical at times. On top of that, he's more of a Pot Limit Omaha player, than Texas Holdem. So he tends to gloss over the nuances of Texas Holdem.
Doug Polk is more "user friendly" if you want to learn more about high level poker.
It's a 4 hour video. If you got any specific questions, shoot.
We could just start by addressing the elephant in the room which is that black people are disproportionately arrested for marijuana despite using drugs at the same rate as white people [1].
Which, naturally, can cripple families for incredibly small amounts of possession.
>despite using drugs at the same rate as white people
This statistic does not accommodate for cultural differences in use. It's quite possible that black people are more likely to carry and/or use marijuana in public or while driving.
I thought that I sort of implied that in the root post, although I expect that there's more to it than your example.
It's easy these days to get arrested for minor deviltries (way easier than when I was a lad) so the police have that in their pocket.
So, you pick out the groups who are statistically most likely to commit real crimes, pick them up for any old thing, and warehouse them until they are more old and tired.
Like I said, it's not fair, but it appears to work to some extent.
Wouldn't surprise me if law abiding black people are the biggest beneficiaries of the way the system works. Imagine living in the ghetto if there was no policing.

There would be plenty of problems, but not being stopped and frisked constantly because of skin tone even though white people are more likely per capita to actually be a valid target of the frisking[1] would probably be nice.
That's an entirely valid use of the term. "Algorithm" comes from "al-Khwarizmi", a Persian mathematician from 700-800s. "Euclid's algorithm" is from 300 BC.
In its original conception, "algorithm" just referred to any series of steps one could follow mechanically to reach a solution to a problem. Delegating those mechanical steps to a computer (another word that used to refer to a person!) came much later.
