INFJ, supposedly. Perl/Python/R/JS/SQL, APIs/DataScience, et cetera. Should be writing. Might be coding up a facebook replacement and/or modeling civilization itself, looking for improvements.

re: election analysis... I've found a 0.018% chance that the swing state tallies are what they are due to chance (rather than the real value falls with said bounds, of course.) The schism itself is just a percent or two, but that my have been enough to change the election outcome.

Hmm.. I almost agree, in parts. Then again, i'd rather we were sane enough a specie as to not engage in wars in the first effbombing place.

They were already grifted into believing him... of course they'd be hit again. I don't feel like anyone deserves either.

Watch him do the west wing just to spite a fictional president who is light years better than he could ever be.

Sorry, I probably could have simplified the statement. I'm for them helping those people... I'm against the attacks they suffer FROM the people they're helping.

Doesn't seem the same to me... owning a gun is elective, and background checks take labor... as is a citizens choice to vote, but sure eff not their RIGHT to vote. No barriers. Period.

They aren't.

Not even a little bit. Raised wages anywhere has shown a boost to the local economies, not a burden upon them.

All of the pilfering, vandalism, and outright death caused by DOGE cuts, and all of the thefts from the future by illegally stopping research grants, didn't save a penny, Trump spent the money and more on corruption and incompetent ICE goons.

Total federal spending is up +7% in 2025 over 2024 year-to-date to Oct 20.

The story that the fed govt is tightening its belt is contradicted by its own real-time expenditure data. Admin spectacularly hammering some things but raising spending elsewhere.

Was -7% just after Inauguration Day.
