I really like both. I have to have coffee in the morning so I guess if I had to pick one that would be it.

I love a good chai that will take my lunch money though

Again, see the chain, but my understanding was wrong. I was thinking ranked was you got multiple votes (1st preference, 2nd preference). That system sucks.

Yes, we’re talking about different things, it seems (also thanks for being civil in your reply). My apologies - your definition seems better than what my understanding was.

I explain my rationale in a response to the guy that I responded to. I realize it’s a thin distinction, but I think it’s an important one.

I don’t like the idea of having to vote multiple times, but it’s better than ranked choice, as with ranked you can get a person in that the majority of people didn’t vote for. If you have multiple rounds of just one vote cast, at least you’re picking the person you want each time, rather than 'i guess this person is better than person X, but i really don’t want him in.

As I alluded to, this is what happened in Alberta politics - we had 3 candidates for conservative leadership: two were very polar, and one guy was in the middle, and thus the guy in the middle won, but no one really wanted him to win. Conversely, if they had just voted regularly, the guy that won would have been kicked out since voting for him wasn’t an option. Then you could run the thing again, and get a better split between the polar candidates.

Then you end up with Ed Stelmach as leader.

Runoff elections seem the best from my view point

The Department for Health and Social Care (DHSC), which was responsible for purchasing and delivering Covid PPE, said it was unable to provide a statement due to the pre-election period

Cowards.

Hindsight is 20/20 and they couldn’t have known how long the pandemic was going to last, but yeesh what a waste.

Alsike clover, golden bean, and I’m not sure what the 2nd yellow one is

Moderna and Phizer stocks with every cent I could muster

Quit my shitty job I had then

Yeah that’s a much better guess but we are both wrong

Is that a Danelectro on the wall, in red?

You have no idea how much I appreciated the slow lead in your comment. The entire thing is very high quality and I highly enjoyed reading whatever the fuck that was.

Mental endurance. The documents I write are very long, and very technical. My role is to integrate reports from numerous environmental and engineering disciplines into one big report. In that regard, everything has to be accurate. Because I integrate, I have to read all of these reports. Every day. All day. All year. Then I have to fit the pieces of the puzzle together and tell the story of the site.

What are the YT alternatives? I use it by default and I’m to exhausted to look for another landing place

Yeah, be could end up having a serious pedestrian error…

There’s some good advice below. I’m not a programmer (vastly different field), but the most important things you can do are to:

• get to know your technical people; their skills, and their personalities

• trust your technical people when they say something is difficult to do.

These two steps will help you get a lot of ‘good will’ from your team and make them feel like you’ve got their back.

Right, I forgot about the children huddling in a hospital in Gaza as bombs drop around them…

Humans were a mistake.

Oh hey, remember how terrible we are to animals?

Imagine some jackass coming up and blasting your bestie with a .45-70. RIP, Bob.

Their algorithm is already abrasive enough. I routinely find myself following people I did not elect to follow. Throw some stupid adds in there, to just make it worse…
