Its possible to build reactors that don't fail spectacularly. Just look at penslyvania with the three mile island nuclear plant or hell you could even look at fukushima. People still live around those locations.

edit: Build out more solar too because that is a great way to generate power but don't snub other things just because they aren't "perfect" from your perspective.

Energize people that may have avoided the initial round of voting but are not faced with a binary decision where they may have a very strong preference rather than a large field of candidates.

I was also on instant running voting as being a superior system but this thread is making some interesting arguments about the role time can play in an election.

Sounds like they are weighted by state gdp, but that seems less than ideal because a state that has very little industry and which doesn't provide many services has a suppressed gdp compared to other states.

Also what the heck type of measurement is net federal money flow per share of state gdp. That's a really overly specific way of wording things and it seems like an easy way to be technically correct but hide a bunch of shit off to the side.

Yeah I was going to say a similar thing. If someone sells 34% of the cars in a country and another sells 35% then only the 35% company shows up in a graph like this. Also if someone sells 3k cars in a year in a county and that is the most cars by any single company then they get a country to themselves even if another company sold 30k cars but that was only second most in that second country.

Honestly op posted a bunch of graphs that have a lot of really specific weaselly language today and I feel like most or all of the graphs are pretty poor graphs and they are very misleading.

I would suggest watching this video about algorithmic redistricting and how it can be used to get nearly any result you want given enough time and computation and getting "reasonable" looking districts https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lq-Y7crQo44

I just read the while thing and it is in there. Should be near the top half if memory serves me

Reminded me of this bit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RsY2zWN6D3Q

I would suggest not doing this if you have glass shelving in your freezer. You'd probably only want to do this with a thick plastic that won't shatter from thermal shock of putting the hot pot/pan on some towels.

Pretty sure someone hallucinated this or there is another Phineas Gage I can't find because this one https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phineas_Gage had a 3 foot iron tamping rod put through their skull by a powder charge.

A gentle reminder that you know about them and are available but putting no pressure on them would probably help them. Unsure if it will cause them to open up more, but if your goal is making sure they are ok, I don't think reaching out would be a bad idea.

you might be able to wire up https://www.wolframalpha.com/ to your search bar for those sort of conversions or calculations. I love using it for time conversions or time zone conversions.
