A big biometric security company in the UK, Facewatch, is in hot water after their facial recognition system caused a major snafu - the system wrongly identified a 19-year-old girl as a shoplifter.

It’s impossible to have a 0% false positive rate, it will never be ready and innocent people will always be affected. The only way to have a 0% false positive rate is with the following algorithm:
def is_shoplifter(face_scan):return Falseline 2 return False ^^^^^^ IndentationError: expected an indented block after function definition on line 1In their defense, it didn’t return a false positive
Weird, for me the indentation renders correctly. Maybe because I used Jerboa and single ticks instead of triple ticks?
Interesting. This is certainly not the first time there have been markdown parsing inconsistencies between clients on Lemmy, the most obvious example being subscript and superscript, especially when ~multiple words~ ^get used^ or you use ^reddit ^style ^(superscript text).
But yeah, checking just now on Jerboa you’re right, it does display correctly the way you did it. I first saw it on the web in lemmy-ui, which doesn’t display it properly, unless you use the triple backticks.
