If New York City can do ranked choice voting and get cool outcomes like this, then Canada can do the same thing. Literally just have ranked choice in each riding would be 10x improvement over what we have now.

o3 price change in Windsurf is a very welcome improvement! 1x credit makes it a totally viable choice.

Just got out of watching The Phoenician Scheme and I can’t recommend it. The Wes Anderson style is just so boring now. The flat monotone voices. The flat camera angles. It was exhausting in a weird way. I actually thought about walking out, which I’ve only done once or twice in my life.

In my rabbit hole of crafting slightly better padel match videos I'm now using ChatGPT to tell me what to do in Apple Motion to create the scoreboard graphics. I'm making myself a "tool" for O3 to tell what to do since Apple Motion is not controllable by AI

I unfortunately did not enjoy the movie. I’d rather watch Detroiters or 50% of I Think You Should Leave skits again.

Ben of Ben & Jerry’s *arrested* after confronting RFK Jr. & Congress: "They need to let food into Gaza. They need to let food to starving kids! Congress is paying to bomb poor kids in Gaza, and paying for it by kicking poor kids off Medicaid in the US!"
