Might be a reason, but that doesn’t mean you have to divulge it. That’s the whole reason a jury works; each juror can come to their own conclusion. Tautologically that requires them to be able to decide differently than the rest of the group.

I don’t know any particulars about this specific case because I did not follow it. But that being said, he doesn’t have to justify his vote in my opinion. There’s a reason we have a jury of multiple people. The entire system was designed specifically for this possibility to arise to put a check on the possibility of mob mentality.
I don’t know if he made the right call. I’m just glad that he has the right to make the call of his conscious in this system.

Any model able to generalize will necessarily learn how to combine “nude” and “child” in the same way that it would learn how to combine “rainbow” and “banana”. That’s the whole point of the model is to generalize. It isn’t required that one particular combination of concepts is in the training data for the model to learn how to do it.

Speed limits should be in powers of 2, e.g. 16, 32, and 64. That’s all we need.

First of all, didn’t praise him. Seems like you missed the multiple times in my response I pointed out I wasn’t making comment on the correctness of his decision. Whether you just missed it or are deliberately ignoring it for the sake of getting to be a dick online, I can’t tell.
Second, I dont know what he did or didn’t say (I didn’t follow the case, remember?), that’s his fault for saying anything about his decision. In fact, that’s what my entire post hinged on; the concept that a juror does not and should not be forced to divulge their reasoning. The ability for a juror to disagree with the group is what makes a jury work at all.
Whether or not he committed perjery in this instance is not relevant to my post, which was more a comment on how a juror must be free to disagree with the jury otherwise the whole thing falls apart.
