Then engage in the discussion at hand, rather than trying to derail it.

Who said the person deserves attention? Even a right to it?
I didn't.

Good ideas deserve attention. It doesn't matter where they come from.
Your idea here isn't a good one, and no longer has mine.

That's a logical fallacy called an Ad Hominem. Where you don't argue against an idea, instead attack the person voicing it.

You're opinion of a person, doesn't mean anything to their argument. It actually works against finding truth and solutions.

So I really really think that today being the day after the election is the day we start talking about a third option in 2028.

Might I recommend supporting the Forward Party.
They're trying to build a whole New Kind of Party, genuinely from the bottom up. Focusing on local politics, where election rules can be changed to make representatives more responsive to their voters. They're quite unlike other 3rd Parties that just run pointless presidential candidates every 4 years.

Then there's RepresentUs. Not a Party, but a political organization trying to do the same. Fix our election system at the state and local level.

I wanted to read it. I did.
But seriously! How much work would it take for somone, anyone! Even the writer! Just read over the article once before before pushing the send button!

The very first letter of the very first word (only a two letter word) is wrong.

"Un an interview that's"

I can't do it.

Yes. I think so. I'd need more details about exactly what he's looking for to be sure. What specific vaccines, years, populations, to really be sure.

I'm pretty sure that data is already public.

If there is one thing Democrats can learn from Republicans, it's to shamelessly own your beliefs. Don't try to cover them up, walk them back, or deny them.

When they called Harris a DEI hire, should have said "Fuck yah she is! And should be!"

Trump calls lefty liberals the enemy within? Biden can call Trump supporters trash. Personally I'd call them American Taliban.

I didn't realize their own promotional emails still reference Twitter. That's intereating.

Nexus 5 is my all time favorite hardware design. With the soft touch plastic back, and lip around the flat screen, I never bothered with a case. All I ever wanted from a new phone since is a version scaled up to a 6in screen.

API index access is an important difference.
If it was only that, without public facing ad driven search, I'd be more impressed.

Maybe if you removed the adds, and severely rate limited your own public facing search, so it's more of a demo than an actual service. This would force you to solely make money off the API access, without directly competing against those customers.

That would be an honest buisness model. One that doesn't turn users into eyeballs for advertising. Which seems to me, to be the most insidious problem of the modern internet.
