It does not address the question at the core: who counted what and how? Even if we accepted it as given that men were more effective in the suicide department, which may very well be backed by all individual studies, that would not make international comparisons, the like we see in the title, any more reliable. I did not see a source for this TIL and that's why I'm throwing heaps of salt on it.

Unlike other governments who are (more) honest.
This has to fall under the category of "never trust a statistic you didn't forge yourself." I'm confident without looking that the amorphous Western countries don't all count suicides and attempts the same way. And for China you would have to trust official numbers or generate your own because the one thing the leadership does not like is looking bad in the international community.
The other question I would have is this ratio based on absolute numbers or per capita. The reason why I ask is that China has a massive gender imbalance, a blast from the past when the one - child policy was in play and millions of female embryos were somehow aborted. And here I would also assume that official population numbers may not be entirely correct to make the generally known problem within the country look less severe.
If there are more men in absolute numbers, there will be more male suicides, some of which one might attribute to the ripples downstream of that very same imbalance.
Whoever concluded this may have accounted for all the pitfalls in their study. And the result may be fantastically accurate. But we oughta be careful and keep more than just a few grains of salt handy when we hear about something like this.
And if we have found a way to reinforce a straw, then we will have found a way to reinforce the planet as well. Danger averted.
Dehydration is but a secondary concern as you're being chased by a sabertooth tiger.
The short answer is a court of law.
The long answer includes a reference to the location because a few countries do not list "escape from prison" as a crime in itself recognizing the human yearning to be free. So only incidental stuff would be interesting in a subsequent legal case, i.e. damage of property, threatening people with violence, etc. If you can manage to slip out in a laundry basket, you are okay. Andy Duphresne would be liable for the wall and sewage pipe he broke. (And committing fraud, of course.)
Yes, we are. Please stop masturbating. Thanks.
If you're only looking at the tools everybody can get a hold of, I agree. I think if you look a bit further, you will find medical diagnostics that can hopefully top human detection scores and that's worth pursuing as well.
I don't see any good reason why the general public needs to have access to most of the models today. Most people just play around with it - and I don't see the value there. When we get the final tally, we will have made the climate crisis worse and caused droughts with all the thirsty data center consumption. All so Alexa can remember what you said two queries ago and you can animate your childhood teddy in the Ghibli style.
I agree that women are still being objectified and that's bad. I don't agree with workers being dehumanized by being referred to as such. "Workers of the world, unite!" was a big rallying cry. For some people, it's an identity-establishing part of life that they're using manual labor and not fart into a desk chair all day. They take pride in being working class.
If by referring to a group of working folks is dehumanizing then we cannot talk about people like housekeepers, street sweepers, nurses, or engineers either. They're people too. And I don't see "people with job X" catching on in the language either.
I don't have access to a good PC, which is why I went mobile. And I'm using Android.
That's unfair to microwave ovens because they have established uses, even in some fine dining establishments. So-called AI has none of that just yet.
