Fascinating and somewhat shocking phenomenon. I was under impression that length would be the only aspect of humans that can’t be altered - turns out that was wrong.
IMO, we're already doing a worse form of ranked choice everywhere. Primaries, pre-election polling, and candidates dropping out early to prevent a vote-split, are all substitutes for what ranked choice provides. Each substitute exists to solve the problems caused by first-past-the-post voting, where having a high number of candidates all but guarantees that the winner does not have majority support.

These substitutes all have issues. Party-segregated primaries promote extremism. Polling is inaccurate. When candidates drop out early, they take away choices from voters.

Ranked choice voting combines multiple rounds of voting into a single ballot. The winner is the person with the most support from voters.

First past the post: winner has the most first-choice votes.
Ranked choice: winner has the most people who would vote for that person if other candidates couldn't win.

Ranked choice results in the best outcome. The winner has the most support from voters, and the data from the ballots informs future campaigns better than polling ever could have.
How has no one filed a lawsuit with regards to these practices yet?

My last manager told me there was a "side pot" of raise money for diverse employees. Surely all it would take is one lawsuit to torpedo such a policy.
My account was disable for dealing with "controlled substances" I told them, ok name one, they cant name one because i dont deal with any controlled substance, im just a market-market. They saw some molecules in my site, saw some weird looking website, and thats it this is too wierd for us. and took it down. now im calling them stupid over the emails
and even then, a digital nomad's expenditure inside their country _is income_ to the next hop. They're simply losing on a single hop in an infinite chain of taxation.
The quality of the candidate matters.
All this to say programmers should call themselves software developers vs. software engineers.
The one thing I know about is Penpot see https://penpot.app/ which is by the team that designed Taiga.io - It's fully open-source and I think tries to solve some of the same problems but it's still in beta. I'm not much of a designer but yesterday started to teach myself Figma only to find this acquisition happening. I've resisted installing creative cloud for years and hearing various people's experiences with Adobe makes me feel like this was a wise decision.
It absolutely does matter when the compression algorithm is expecting audio in a certain format. If you put something else in those bits you will get worse, or no, compression, and might as well just use zip.
Adobe loses the game with their skill and use money to win it. Figma won the game with their skill but lose the money game.
I computed a bounding volume in a hyper-dimensional space containing all sensor instruments on the system. The volume was constructed to encompass the entire sensor state space of many previously recorded "normal" operating periods (from startup through steady-state and shutdown).

New operating regimes where then compared to the volume, and any excursions were considered diagnostically relevant conditions.

The cool part (to me, at least) was that the direction of the vector as system state trajectory exited the volume could be put through a classifier that would effectively tell you what went wrong.
Making sure you aren't disproportionately firing people of a certain race for reasons other than performance. For example, maybe a particular dept you don't need is coincidentally in an area with more black people and is disproportionately black. You might let go of people in other departments and transfer some of the minority employees. Or maybe you just fire people randomly. You at least look at your list and make sure it's not disproportionately one race or full of minorities, and if it is, find out why.
It would be really bad if people looked at mass-market general elections from a mathematical point of view.
Threat Detection in GVisor
I agree that RCV is better than FPTP, but only marginally. It's not clear to me if the marginally better system is worth the complexity (in the eyes of some voters, at least).

As you allude to, RCV is fine when the minor parties essentially have no chance at winning. They get knocked out in the early rounds and then don't matter. In cases where two candidates have similar vote shares, the result is fairly chaotic.
I was just about to post this :)

Depending on the request context (typically a set of headers), a request will end up going to one of baseline service A or A’, but never both. Depending on the scenario being tested, you can choose to isolate additional stateful components. In the case of testing a change to the database itself (DDL, etc), you’re right in that the database must be isolated so that A’ does not talk to the same shared database as A. So, as you pointed out, typically this would involve using a resource plugin (https://docs.signadot.com/docs/using-resources-with-sandboxe...) to set up that new database shard (or table, or schema) that is isolated as part of the test sandbox environment, and then linking A’ to talk to that isolated instance instead.

Kafka is on our roadmap next! We're actually working right now on making custom resource plugins easy to write, because invariably with databases, there's a data seeding step that's pretty custom for users. Right now, for building a custom plugin, aside from writing the logic in the provision / deprovision scripts (for ex. https://github.com/signadot/plugins/tree/main/src/mariadb), there's a bit of docker image building and helm packaging needed that we're hoping to simplify.
Thanks! Just learning about this stuff now, really appreciate it.
Agreed here. I'm from EU but moved to CA, and the attitude is different. When I visit family in the USA it feels even worse. The quality of food is usually quite bad here. And people eating out fast food just for lunch, or even going to {Fast food chain} in the morning for breakfast just seems crazy to me.

The variety of food is pretty good, I find a lot of different cuisines here. But actual quality food is much harder to find. (Quantity over quality I guess).
there is a lot of culture behind this. friends i visited left their baby in a room crying while they were entertaining guests as if it was the most normal thing in the world. they were otherwise very loving and caring towards their children, so to me this seemed rather out of place. but it looked like that was just how they did it and i guess everyone else from their culture too.

i also think that many parents are being led to believe that letting the kid cry it out is for the well-being of the child. so some will do it even if it goes against their own feelings.

I'm doubtful of this claim. My guess is that the 1.234E-8 type notation originates in floating-point input and output on computers.

My (c) 1977 version of K&R C explains printf() around page 145, and it supports the %f notation for output of float's as 1.234e-8, etc.

This Fortran IV manual (early-mid 1960s, https://www.math-cs.gordon.edu/courses/cs323/FORTRAN/fortran...) lists the same exponential notation, but with capital E for REAL's and capital D for double's.

This pre-dates the first hand calculator I know of, the early HP's from 1968. These machines used the same notation as the HP-35 pictured below (https://www.hpmuseum.org/rpnvers.htm#num).

The HP-35 calculator came out in 1972. According to the page below, the scientific notation used is of the form

1.234-8

i.e., without the E (see the second row of the gallery).

I do this because I specifically assumed using Adobe there would be some maniacal dark pattern they wouldn’t really let me cancel sooner than a year despite what the main text stated. Seems like I was correct, reading this thread.
This whole conversation is a good demonstration of why FPTP succeeds and is popular -- it is easy to understand, and most of the other systems are not. When a voting system is hard to understand, people will tend to see conspiracies and fraud even though there isn't any, and they will lose trust in the system.

With FPTP, every voter casts one vote for one candidate, and the candidate with the most votes wins. Simple.

If you need a website with diagrams to explain the abstruse differences between different voting mechanisms, I think you've already failed. This stuff is certainly of academic interest but the average voter cannot handle it.

Unfortunately I know little about the process for actually applying for a merchant account or where to get it from. That's what the ISO we partnered with handled. Also it was "high risk" accounts (cough adult cough), that is different banks than you'd be using. Same with the competitor payment processors I'm aware of. If you're unfamiliar with the process and can't find a bank to walk you through it, an ISO is not a bad idea. They'll walk you through the process and help you find a bank, and also a processing gateway. They'll also add a margin on the processing fee, but it's not a big one, and certainly less than paypal or stripe.

For processors starting out, there's nothing wrong with using Stripe or Paypal etc. When you ramp up to using your own Merchant Account, Authorize.net isn't too bad as long as you're not doing recurring payments (those get tricky), or maybe even Rocketgate.

Only half the voters for Nick Begich (R) put Sarah Palin (R) as their 2nd choice. The rest put Mary Petola (D) as their 2nd choice or did not pick a 2nd choice. They could have not understood ranked choice. Or the more likely scenario is that Begich was their first and only choice, they couldn't bring themselves to put either Sarah Palin or a Democrat as their second choice.

IRV is really bad, and this is an example as to why. If you want to use a confusing voting system (to the average person, IRV is very confusing), you should be doing the Condorcet algorithm with an IRV tiebreaker among the winners.

Approval voting, on the other hand, is very simple to understand and doesn't have the same spoiler effect problems that FPTP and IRV both have.
Running with proper form might help your knees (and it provably doesn't hurt them). The actual science your source is drawing from will tell you that it's not conclusive that running improves knee health [1]. Running with poor form will definitely damage them. Walking (2.5mph, briskly) will not hurt your knees and is considered overall one of the best exercises you can do [2]. Walking and running (with proper form) both will improve knee pain.

This is a bit off topic, but I am naturally excellent at reading other people's code. I can somehow factor in commit messages and see their style to determine if they didn't know X area very well, if it was a temporary hotfix, or if they intended to come back and fix this area up at a later time. It's like I'm sitting there with them while I read it.

Wow, that zip file of JSON is 6.5MB, but when you decompress it you get a 382.MB CvrExport.json file!

In my view, the priority of a democratic system is to ensure peaceful transitions of power by providing the perception of fairness. The perception of an election being fair is more important than an election being actually fair, although both at once is obviously desirable.

My concern with sophisticated voting schemes like Condorcet or RCV is that these systems may be too complicated for some unsophisticated voters to understand, and therefore risk the perception of unfairness. FPTP is less fair, but is easy to understand and is therefore easy to perceive as fair. FPTP is simple enough that any common fool can hold a mock election with his friends and trivially calculate the winner. Send that same man to the Condorcet method wikipedia page and I think his eyes will glaze over before he figures it out.

It may be the case that my concern is misplaced, so I support testing these voting methods in low-stake elections, such as this one in Alaska. But I recommend caution when applying these methods to high-stake elections. Peaceful transitions of power is more important than anything else, and anything that might risk that peace should be considered with caution.

ELI5: why do we care about Condorcet failures?

From https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/what-democrats-win-in-a...

> 40 percent of voters had chosen Peltola as their first choice, 31 percent had chosen Palin and 29 percent had chosen Republican businessman Nick Begich III. Under the rules of ranked choice voting, Begich — as the candidate with the fewest first-choice votes — was then eliminated, and his votes were redistributed to whomever his voters ranked second.

> Unsurprisingly, most of Begich’s votes (50 percent) went to his fellow Republican, Palin. But an impressive 29 percent went to Peltola, and 21 percent were “exhausted,” meaning there was no second-choice pick, and the votes were essentially thrown out. That combination was enough for Peltola to win. While Palin gained more votes from the redistribution than Peltola did, Peltola was starting from a higher total, and receiving 29 percent of Begich’s votes was enough to keep her ahead of Palin. In the end, Peltola received 51 percent of the votes counted in the final round, while Palin received 49 percent.

Sounds fair to me. Some of Begich’s voters expressed a “Begich or nobody” preference. Many Begich voters expressed a “Peltola over Palin” preference. It’s not clear to me why pairwise preferences are meaningful, they don’t encode nuances like the above. Though maybe that’s a feature and not a bug?

I’m aware this gets pretty technical with Arrow’s theorem, maybe there isn’t an ELI5.
