Google does the same thing for verifying that a website is your own. Security checks by the model would only kick off if you're engaging in a property that you've validated.
That is an outrageous 99.852% rate of ineffective searches.
The police also disclose that the cost of the system will be over $2 million this year — $2,012,500.
A 99.852% ineffective rate means city leaders will spend $2,009,521.50 on license plate reader technology that does not help any case."
From the discussion section, "It is important to note that inadequate intake in the athletes of the present study may carry significant negative health implications. Insufficient consumption of fruits and wholegrains has been linked to the development of chronic diseases, including CVD, cancer, T2D, and hypertension. Additionally, high intake of sodium, saturated fat and discretionary food items are correlated with higher incidence of obesity, T2D, CVD, dementia, and cancer. Paradoxically, despite exceeding the WHO guidelines for physical activity by a substantial margin, these athletes are not meeting dietary recommendations essential for long-term health, highlighting the potential risks posed by these inadequacies."
I would also add that the World Health Organization after evaluating 800 studies classified processed meat as a Group 1 carcinogen back in 2015, indicating a strong causal link to colorectal cancer, placing it in the same risk category as tobacco. [1]
While I linked to a single study in my original comment, I believe the results are more than a small signal.. enough for the WHO to come out and say processed meat does in fact have a causal link to CRC.

Frequent consumption of red and processed meat is strongly linked to a higher risk of colorectal cancer, with studies showing a 30% to 40% increased risk for high consumption levels [1]. Processed meat, in particular, raises CRC risk by about 18% for every 50-gram daily portion [2].
Your ultra-endurance athletes might be convinced they need more protein in their diets and are most likely consuming large quantities of meat.

A healthy, whole-food plant-based diet is linked to a lower risk of ischemic stroke, with studies showing reduced risk compared to meat-eaters. The conclusion of this paper[1] for example reads that "Lower risk of total stroke was observed by those who adhered to a healthful plant-based diet."
Additionally, researchers at Harvard found that a plant-based diet may lower overall stroke risk by up to 10%. [2]

"Prompt injection attacks can cause AIs to delete files, steal data, or make financial transactions. This isn't speculation: we’ve run “red-teaming” experiments to test Claude for Chrome and, without mitigations, we’ve found some concerning results.
We conducted extensive adversarial prompt injection testing, evaluating 123 test cases representing 29 different attack scenarios. Browser use without our safety mitigations showed a 23.6% attack success rate when deliberately targeted by malicious actors.
One example of a successful attack—before our new defenses were applied—was a malicious email claiming that, for security reasons, emails needed to be deleted. When processing the inbox, Claude followed these instructions to delete the user’s emails without confirmation."
The dumbing down of America is most evident in the slow decay of substantive content in the enormously influential media, the 30 second sound bites (now down to 10 seconds or less), lowest common denominator programming, credulous presentations on pseudoscience and superstition, but especially a kind of celebration of ignorance.”

Congratulations to the social media companies and their infinite ad revenue, and so sorry to the rest of us who have to live in a Tiktok society.

It still doesn't change my concern about how unsustainable growing alfalfa is. Trillions of gallons to grow an inefficient animal feed crop while we're told by the evening news to take shorter showers (8 minute shower is ~16 gallons of water) and let our lawns die.
