~~I think that means alcohol poisoning~~
It actually means tuberculosis
In Arizona, the RCV proposition didn't pass because it was bundled with open primaries. The bill was mainly about requiring open primaries with only a small mention of requiring ranked choice voting at the end. I would bet a lot of people here didn't even know ranked choice voting was on their ballot.
When I was a kid, I literally walked 43 miles from my home one day. Took 15 hours. I just had my parents pick me up when I got to the pizza place - no big deal.
Python and Java are barely comparable. I adore both languages equally and use them about the same amount at work. They are just different tools better suited to different tasks.
Okay. That's a very convincing analogy. Thanks for the thought out response. Forgive me for being rude.
~~That is not how Hispanic is used in the dataset. Just read the methodology for crying out loud.~~
Not unless someone methodologically captures all the accounts through interviews and surveys and turns it into one.
I agree that anecdotes aren't worthless, but for different reasons. There's actually a saying that goes, "the plural of anecdote isn't data." Anecdotes are just stories. They aren't data points and they aren't peer reviewed. If you want to turn anecdotes into data, you have to do the proper interviews and surveys to actually build a dataset and then get the peer review, but at that point we aren't talking about anecdotes anymore.
Ah. That makes sense. Thanks for the explanation!
Not sure I understand. Are you agreeing that the moon landing happened but you also claim the footage is faked? Do you have any reasons to support that? You mention something about radio technology from the 1920s, but the moon landing occurred nearly 50 years later, so I hardly see how that is relevant.
Edit: I misread your comment. Thanks to @turmacar@lemmy.world for pointing it out.

That's not true. There isn't anything special about jury nullification. If it happens, it happens and that's the end of the trial. If the jury is hung because some of the jury members wish to nullify and others don't, then it will lead to a mistrial simply because the jury cannot come to a unanimous decision - not because of jury nullification. Of course, any verdict can be appealed as usual, but there's no guarantee the appeal will be granted - even in the case of jury nullification.
