Have you talked to children, parents, or doctors about your concerns and theirs? How can you be so sure about the oncoming suicides?

Even better, I noticed it's any soul collected in the whole sandbox mode! Even the souls in the lane too!

I think you're OK as long as you're genuine and respectful. It sounds like you're interested in this character and share your interest in the story with others (so they can be in on your fun too). Go for it, it's your life :)

I think there was an unspoken assumption that proportional representation, while good, is orthogonal to the voting ballot tallying. Which is what I think the video mainly focused on. Proportional should absolutely still be used.

Just a quick adventure: 20mins, in and out. 😂

We got some good and necessary changes to delegates after Hillary's failed coronation. Now we'll likely see required primaries due to Biden's almost disaster. I do hope Kamala and Walz make changes to incorporate a truly diverse coalition for democrats. Including leadership for core demographics.

I wonder if titles (like thumbnails on YouTube) are ai generated or machine selected/biased in some way due to a promp or filter for "most exaggeratory" or something 😂

When I was younger I heard that a planned economy can never be as potentially as efficient over time as a free (not capatilist) market due to the "lack of perfect information". Meaning, not one authority can fully and effectively makimulsy optimize each supply/demand connection across all types of markets (pencils, food, trucks, medicine, tutors, etc...). The benefit of allowing markets to form organically (again, not monopolies, not regulatory capture, but person to person markets) is that each market will self-optimize for their own local maxima of efficiency.

This local optimization represents the implicit information that each market maker (buyer vs seller) brings to the table: effectively making every small market a mini-planned market. Now, many local maxima does not equal one true global maxima, but with many such algorithms local maxima produce very efficient and high quality results.

Hence, the challenge with a planned economy is not the control, but the lack of total information necessary to meet a higher efficiency target for all markets than would be possible if each market self-planned.

Markdown in the media bias bot doesn't work as visibly intended.

The bot's info is nice and I appreciate your effort. The wall of text is a turnoff for humans in-general, as we are lazy skimmers. So the text being formatted so densely trains users to automatically ignore it, thus reducing the bot's intended purpose - to supply users with extra info about media bias. (which we desperately need on sites like lemmy)

If there's any possibility of reformatting so your intentions can more broadly affect the those platform, then I think your goals would be more effectively achieved.

Again, thank you for the bot.
