Oakland uses ranked choice voting, which means that if a candidate receives a majority of first-choice votes, that person wins. If not, the last-place candidate is eliminated, and voters who selected that person have their votes counted for their next choice — a cycle that repeats until a candidate gets a majority.


We need this nationwide.

I don't know anything about her, but this sounds all right to me:

As for homelessness, Lee has referred to the crisis as a “moral disgrace.” She said she wants to test a guaranteed income pilot program for homeless people, hire unhoused residents to clean the streets, and work with the Veterans Administration to get veterans off the street.




For now, Pentagon and DHS won’t recommend that Trump invoke the Insurrection Act


On day 1 of the 2nd term, Trump signed an executive order that asked for a report due 90 days in on additional actions on the southern border. It specifically asked them to write if they thought the Insurrection Act should be invoked.

They aren't going to recommend invoking it. If you heard people concerned about April 20th, this was the report they were talking about

Keep the pressure up. They're starting to feel the pushback. Join the nationwide protests tomorrow April 19th

BREAKING NEWS: “DAZI SULL’ESPORTAZIONE IN PDF” / “34% TARIFF ON PYTHON IMPORTS”

BREAKING NEWS: “DAZI SULL’ESPORTAZIONE IN PDF” / “34% TARIFF ON PYTHON IMPORTS”


L’altro giorno avevo visto questo memino che non solo è reale, come sempre qui, ma anche attuale: “DAZI SULL’ESPORTAZIONE IN PDF“! Esatto, il ciuffone avrebbe insomma conquistato un altro dei suoi soliti infiniti successi per il popolo, mettendo un dazio anche su qualcosa di apparentemente impossibile come i documenti digitali, dopo averlo fatto su qualcosa di apparentemente inutile (i pinguini delle isole disabitate)… 🤯

Ci sarebbero molte domande da porsi a riguardo, in primis in che modo sia possibile anche solo ipoteticamente imporre un dazio su qualcosa in esportazione, visto che quella è una misura economica strettamente riguardante l’importazione… ma in realtà il come non importa, se nella pratica il metodo esiste. E, a quanto pare, esiste eccome, sotto forma di libreria Python rilasciata da giusto qualche giorno… 🙏
Uso sul mio PC come descrittoE infatti, ringraziando il cielo, esiste TARIFF! Basata sul movimento MIGA di pip (Make Importing Great Again; c’è anche il Gran Bellissimo Cappello™), permette letteralmente di imporre dazi di importazione sui moduli Python, disincentivando dunque l’uso di librerie esterne in favore della scrittura di codice extra direttamente dentro il proprio progetto. Una grande vittoria per tutti gli utenti! (…E non per gli sviluppatori.) 💯
Quindi… quello che io ho fatto qui è stato imporre un dazio del 2000% (duemila percento!) sul l’importazione di Markdown-PDF… che ho poi comunque potuto usare senza problemi per generare un file PDF, perché un rallentamento dell’importazione (in termini di tempo, per chi non lo avesse capito — e sembra una stronzata, si, ma in realtà un dazio sul tempo ha un suo peso in ambito digitale) anche di ben il 2000%, si traduce in appena qualche secondo di attesa. Il meme però, insomma, si è avverato; e, ci scommetto, nemmeno chi lo ha creato poteva immaginarlo. 👌

(Alcuni consigli, infine: Se si vuole sentire davvero il dazio, basta semplicemente mettere un numero tremendamente alto, magari a 9 cifre… ed ecco che subito il mercato basato sul parassitismo inizia a tremare. Inoltre, secondo me ed anche altra gente, questo sistema dovrebbe essere proposto anche per JavaScript… così forse la finiamo di avere progetti dove la cartella node_modules ha migliaia di altri pacchetti dentro per cose inutili, che dite? Viva la MIGA!!!)

GitHub has the code. Everyone should fork it to everywhere so they cannot delete it

It is such a lie that data is sent back to china.

It can be run without internet connection.

Presumably this is referring to using the online portal to use it. I don't trust any of those, Chinese or otherwise. I run it locally.

LMStudio is the current software I use to manage LLMs, and I really like it. There's a user-made app for Android that let's you use it if you're on the same network (or if you set it up to use on the internet) There are other options though.

The author, Josh Marshall always stops short of accountability for war crimes. He usually concerns himself --at length-- with what Iran and Hamas are plotting, the nature and use of Hamas tunnels, etc. The focus is always on shadowy others. He claims Oslo itself was the fault here, not Ben Gurion's abuse and violations of it. The Nakba? Evidently no Israeli is to be blamed for that. And the attacks on Palestinians are seen as a recognition of reality from the "realist-minded" Israelis, Josh claims.

talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/i…

While he is against netenyahu and bloodthirsty settlers, he is a pro israeli-state pundit, and wont make any call to halt the IDF war on Palestinian civilians. Cheap logic from a partisan hack who cant admit that whats going on is what he wants. He's drinking tea with his pinky in the air, and a handkerchief at his nose so he doesnt have to smell the disgusting odor of the murdered.

He was rabidly against what he called "rhetorical excesses" in campus protests, not bothering to address why people were protesting. Club those students till they are silent, for their "rhetorical excess" eh Josh. What a fine American.

While I agree with Josh that we must all start following our laws, we need to start with the first ammendment protecting political free speech and acknowledging that what Biden did was criminal and violated numerous existing laws implemented for exactly this reason. Biden aided and abeteed war crimes and a massive genocide. And he and congress abridged the publics civil rights, using state violence to silence legitimate and peaceful political dissent, brutalizing students who were concerned about basic human rights. Disagreeing with the way zionists conduct what the world says are war crimes is not antisemitism and it never was. Even if it was antisemitism, it would be protected as political free speech. For many years people openly talked about keeping black skinned people down, even with violence, and it was free speech. But today if you question zioinisms methods at all you are instantly labeled as supporting Hamas. thats unamerican, fascist bullshit and a gross misuse of power by the president and congress-- done during a democratic party administraton no less. Just Shameful.

If we cant be honest about that then our calling out republicans for their own gross lawbreaking falls a little flat. Its always rules for thee and not for me, even within our own party. And then we wonder why the voters lose faith.

While he is certainly well spoken and educated, Josh Marshall is filthy-- he is a disappointment, he is a thug, he is a bad person, and he can suck it.

I'm going to probably rustle some jimmies saying this, but it continues to baffle me how we're okay as a society to put up a multitude of barriers to adoption in order to protect the child, but we're totally fine with anyone conceiving without any sort of mandatory education on how to care for a child and some process in place to flag potential unfit parents for review/etc.
