Ballot design.

Some RCV ballot designs are better than others. For example:

Also, as an experience designer who has had the pleasure of sitting in many many user tests, never under estimate how dumb people are. Some people are going to be confused by the new thing because it’s new. Good news is that this goes away after an election or two and most of the public gets used to it.

Crippling depression and anxiety. The greatest drinking game of all.

Apple has been on an AI shopping spree for a while now, and Apple IP is going to be driving a lot of what’s in Apple Intelligence.

The language and diffusion models that Apple has on device, and in that private cloud compute feature, are all Apple IP.

ChatGPT is only prompted when a query looks like it could benefit from it. And when that happens, the user is asked for data consent for every query.

I mean, there is that Lemmy dev with a git repo of self published communist manifestos, but who doesn’t have like 8 of those laying around.

You’re correct in that the press coverage is the point, and it’s impossible to get past Johnson.

I disagree that this is about getting her name in the press. She’s trying to keep the supreme court’s last session in the press. The media will focus on the court for a week, then move onto the new shiny thing.

The only way to keep the SCOTUS in the news right now is to do stuff like this. The big broadcasters flock to the drama.

Open and shut case… if the Dems controlled the house. But not enough democrats were voted into office, so these articles go to MAGA Mike Johnson, and unfortunately, his trash can.

But AOC knows this. Her goal is to keep this in the press so voters remember it in Nov. That’s the real play. No one is actually getting impeached this term. Mike Johnson is a Christian nationalist who loves what those activist judges are doing. No way he’s brining this to the floor. And if he did, AOC doesn’t have a simple majority.

Good on her for keeping this in the news for another cycle. This doesn’t go anywhere after she hands them the speaker of the republican controlled House. Johnson is basically going to throw them right in the bin.

But I imagine her goal is to get the media to cover the drama, and therefore keep this corruption story in the news.

She and others should just keep filing articles of impeachment every week until Nov. Keep this shit in the news.

It’s not entirely meaningless. Her aim is to keep the justices recent rulings in the media so that voters are aware of them come Nov.

AOC isn’t a dummy, and she’s knows that Johnson will immediately throw this in the trash.

I’d like to see someone else do this next week, and then another person the week after, etc etc. keep doing it until Nov. Keep reminding voters about the corruption.

My legs went numb just thinking of the toilet time required to type that.

That’s a great list of accomplishments. Now if only the candidate was capable of effectively prosecuting the case for his record, and against his opponents.

The problem ain’t the administration’s record and policies. It’s the candidate’s ability to sell the public on it.
