Body camera video equivalent to 25 million copies of “Barbie” is collected but rarely reviewed. Some cities are looking to new technology to examine this stockpile of footage to identify problematic officers and patterns of behavior.

          Oh that’s so fucking annoying, but I also think it’s part of the culture among those who typically submit recipes online.

      We don’t even need to choose! Just use hours, months, years, decades! But no, Barbie movies.

        I’m sorry, can you restate that in terms of the number of ground state transitions of a Cs-136 atom?

          Yes it is, but SI is not all metric. Metric is fundamentally a base 10 system. Time is base 60 you can probably thank the ancient Sumerians for that but there’s some debate.

          At one point the French tried to make metric time a thing but it didn’t stick.

            Short times are always given in scales of 10 for seconds (ms, μs, ns). And long ones can be too.

              And machinists in America use decimal inches, but I don’t think anyone would say that inches is metric.
