  • Yep, just really important to stress it’s a massive oversimplification — but that oversimplification is suprisingly accurate. Maybe like how newtonian mechanics is a massive oversimplification of how the world works but is suprisingly good at predicting things.

  • I’ve honestly found signal better than matrix.

    Matrix is just not there yet in terms of features UI etc and is less private than signal because it collects way more metadata and stuff. I know the idea of federation is cool, but Signal works better for the privacy aspect.

  • Unfortunately due to the FPTP system polling numbers don’t mean too much at an aggregate level, would be more interesting to see single district polling.

    I wish canada would atleast reform to RCV or Two Round if proportional voting is too scary for conservatives.

  • Changes in your body change your dreams — illnesses can induce nightmares, or stop you from dreaming all together — we don’t understand how dreaming works mostly, but we do understand that basically any physical change can induce changes in dreaming.

  • I know someone who deliberately misanlysed data in a study that led to an entire patient group getting denied disability benefits because his study showed the condition is “curable” (it isn’t). (His study was funded by the government department paying disability benefits and private disability insurances, of course).

    Did he get what he deserved? No, he got knighted by the Queen, is serving on the board of the NHS, and is an insider with the ruling class.
