@feld It is good that such cases arouse suspicion. The systems obviously hadn't been fully tested. And in some of the contested states, there is a history of corruption. Let's allow every reasonable claim to be investigated, so there are no questions as to the actual winner.

http://status.hackerposse.com/url/22731 I'm particularly unhappy about Prop 22 passing. That's the one in which Uber and similar companies spent record amounts of money to give themselves a loophole from laws requiring that they treat their "independent contractors" as employees, since they exercise employer level control over the way work is done. This is as repulsive as the … -

Philadelphia stopped counting mail-in ballots for the night, so the pinkish color in #PA could turn out to be wrong. Also, Detroit had very high early voting and mail-in turnout, so #MI's pinkish color is also potentially misleading.

According to a commentator on Politico, #CA Prop 16 is going down in flames. This would repeal prop 209 and allow state and local government and educational institutions to once again use ancestry / race and sex / gender in hiring and admissions decisions. Proponents painted it as affirmative action needed to right historic wrongs. Opponents painted it as enabling racism.

I've reloaded the #NBCNews page so many times that their "please turn off your adblocker" interstitial stopped giving me the view site anyway option. Turning off #JavaScript got rid of that, but no more nice election results map. Switching to #CNN.

I got a chuckle out of seeing people asking where Belarus is. I attended California public schools. At that time, CA schools were 47th out of the 50 states. As a result, in times like this, I expect everyone who did not live in Mississippi to have received a better education than I did.

"Big data" and visualizations make everything look simple, but #COVID-19, like everything else in the real world, is messy. OP argues that the data is noisy, contradictory, and incomplete ... and that it will be years before we can reliably draw any conclusions from it.

Cripes I hate #politics in the #US right now. There's no way to even say "yes I went to work in Boston yesterday" right now without having to follow up with "I DON'T FUCKING CARE WHAT YOU THINK OF DONALD TRUMP, NOT EVERY CONVERSATION HAS TO BE ABOUT HIM".... -

As you know, I generally avoid #politics and #pollies (politicians). But I’m reading a little bit more these days in preparation for the election in November. So far, I’m still not likely to support any #twin_parties candidate. #uspol -

WaPo: "... no president since World War II has lost reelection when unemployment was below 7.4 percent." https://nu.federati.net/url/254352 [washington post]
Is that really true? I haven't checked yet. I realize that wallet issues are life issues, but I'd expect other major issues to occasionally outweigh the economy.
