We’ve got you covered

Were you born between '78 and '83?

Can I get Internet Points for the call btw

j/k

Yes, and palm facing the person. It’s a combination of the signed letters I, L, Y.

Oh, the explanation in literally in the link. -.-

It’s subtle but it seems like RFK is only siphoning off Trump support. Makes me wonder if he’ll drop out suddenly the more that becomes apparent.

“We have the chance to save U.S. democracy and rule of law, to elect the first woman President of the United States, and to send TFG packing. By contributing to Kamala Harris’s campaign via this portal, we can also encourage her to create a distinct presence on Mastodon, not mediated by Threads or any other social media provider.”

Promoting Mastodon isn’t even a tertiary goal. It’s just an “also encourage”. The primary goal is fundraising for a political candidate.

Because it’s not a good idea. They select him and don’t convert Republican voters, lose a good portion of the progressive base and only get marginal, less reliable, swing voters with that move. That’s at least a ten point loss right there.

It’s going to be a safe bet like Josh Shapiro or, slightly less safe, Cooper.

I agree with you on people working in election offices having integrity by and large but the Ohio Republicans did actually try to pull a fast one this election cycle. Fortunately DeWine knew it was being the pale.

You’re absolutely correct. I was under the assumption that states pre printed ballots based on the presumptive nominees. Apparently states that do that are being naughty/cutting corners.

Yup. That’s exactly what they tried already

Republicans will pull some shenanigans in at least one state to keep Biden on the ballot. My bet is Ohio. So, a non trivial amount.

Yeah, I’m getting whiplash from the talking points all around me.

A politician who’s only really known in one state and another octogenarian? No thank you.

I don’t really get the down votes. They genuinely said it was an odd question and this election cycle is already fucking weird.

dis u?

Did you used to write copy for a Old Spice?

I would argue that ASM isn’t “powerful”. It’s direct. You can access advanced features of a CPUs architecture with the trade off limited portability. Sometimes it’s necessary but power comes from being able to express complex control and data structures in a concise and readable amount of text.

The subjective topic of what “concise and readable” means is where the language wars come in.

What Crockford did was enable a lot of devs to realize there was a viable development platform built into the most prolific and open network client in the world. For that he should be commended but it should have never been taken as “this is a viable general purpose language”.

I love how after a decade pandoc is still Haskell’s “killer app”. smh
