I mean I know you think aren’t. But you are. It’s cool. You know programming to an extent. But there is PLENTY of evidence to show that you are. There are many other applications in use today that show it’s feasible. It’s like arguing the sky isn’t blue because you have your sunglasses on. Sure. It’s in your wheelhouse. Doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be done. It should be. It would equalize everything.
That’s just rude lol, you know nothing about my experience. My personal opinion isn’t even super relevant here though; if we look at the professional consensus, they tend to agree.
I haven’t seen any evidence that you have any understanding of this topic at all. You keep saying we should do it because it would be good-- which it would be-- but wanting something to be easy doesn’t actually make it easy. You say there’s plenty of evidence; SHOW IT then if you’re so confident! I’ll even start, here’s an article by the AAAS with sources: https://www.aaas.org/epi-center/internet-online-voting
It’s not rude. It’s factual. I don’t need to be a programmer to know it’s applications. I don’t have to be a car engineer to know they transport people and where most go. It’s absolutely egotistical to think you only know what a computer is capable of because you can program.
Holy shit bro
This is coming from the literal dumbass who thought that electronic voting machines accessed the internet already. You know literally nothing about this topic and even ignoring my own personal knowledge I cited an article by one of the leading authorities that references 10 literal research papers on this topic. You still haven’t given me ONE FUCKING SOURCE because you’re clearly arguing based off of vibes and have no actual information. You’re either stupid or trolling and either way I’m never speaking to you again. Blocked. Have fun making a “witty” response. I can’t believe I was spending time out of my workday to talk politics with some random 13 year old on lemmy who has nothing better to do than waste people’s time. Fuck off and goodbye.
