A whole bunch of people are about to learn the words “Posse Comitatus” for the first time and while I’d love to say I’m here for it, holy shit, man.

Early exit polls suggest the new pope did particularly well with male voters aged 45-79.

Not doubting, just wondering where you’re getting that from?

Fwiw the kitten was a foster who was adopted into a lovely home of a neighbour. He sat on heads for many years to come.

The discourse here is cursed because people are only able to see AI through an ideological lens. For example, if you acknowledge a use case for LLM's, you are validating AI bros, so you have to deny that use cases exist. The definitions don't matter because it's not actually about the AI.

I’ve heard this all day today and I totally agree: the OT winner was great but the biggest cheers came from the 2 seconds left tying goal! Wild emotions!

Admittedly my understanding of the rules isn’t infallible, but I patently don’t understand that non-call. Anyone?

NEW: Supreme Court denies leave for appeal, meaning the decision of the Court of Appeal stands - case remitted for rehearing.

With a weaker Conservative showing, sure, but I’m not so sure they take the chance once the Carney honeymoon wears off

To be fair, I hadn’t seen it in years of poll watching either, and I had to ask my brilliant wife (who teaches grad school stats) to explain it to me so I could share it.

Really happy to see folks out and voting yesterday!

In hindsight though, maybe putting the first day of advance voting on a stat holiday wasn’t ideal from a confluence of people excited/impatient to get out to vote day 1, combined with “literally everyone’s off work” poll place lineups perspective.

The key indicator in a poll reporting is “around the 50% mark” when looking at the confidence interval. That’s going to tell you that the sampling is, let’s call it “not great” which, given that it’s a text messaging poll, is likely. As I understand it.

You’re allowed the hours off if your normal working hours don’t give you three hours of voting time off anyway, which won’t be most people - but definitely go vote with whatever time you have!
