@bespacific Ironic that Republican voters like convenience too. My guess is that the GOP calculates more Democrat or people who won’t vote for them will be effected. 🤔
#Disabled #Voters Were Evenly Split in 2016. Now the GOP Is Pushing Them Away. Lawmakers seek to curb early, mail-in and curbside voting. Measures spark backlash among voters with disabilities #ableism is #discrimination #Election2024 #elections #mailinballots #votingbymail https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-07-12/republicans-risk-alienating-disabled-voters-key-swing-group-angered-by-new-laws#xj4y7vzkg
The #ocean's color is changing as consequence of #climatechange. The team writes that they have detected changes in ocean color over the past two decades that cannot be explained by natural, year-to-year variability alone. These #colorshifts, though subtle to the human eye, have occurred over 56 percent of the world's oceans—an expanse that is larger than the total land area on #Earth. #ecology #oceans #carbondioxide #plankton #GreenhouseGases #chlorophyll concentrations https://phys.org/news/2023-07-ocean-consequence-climate.html

1. So, you've heard of Moms for Liberty.
But you may NOT have heard of the OTHER county-based org removing books from schools & opposing pride declarations while invoking “Judeo-Christian values.”
That's Citizens Defending Freedom — or what critics call "Moms for Liberty in suits.” https://religionnews.com/2023/07/12/when-christian-nationalism-goes-local-inside-citizens-defending-freedom/
2. The reason you likely haven't heard of CDF, or Citizens Defending Freedom, is because they keep their work hyper-local — they used to go by County Citizens Defending Freedom.
But activists say they've been especially influential in Florida, and are expanding into GA and TX.
@Huntn00 @DrewStephenson Add people into the mix and the situation gets even hairier.
@Huntn00 @DrewStephenson I've considered the possibility, but I'd be hesitant to make such a foundational change without a lot of research and testing to support it. You learn very quickly in the field of reinforcement learning (and other optimization algorithms) that it's *very* easy to mess up a reward function, with no obvious sign that there are flaws until it's too late and the whole system is completely off the rails.
@hosford42 @DrewStephenson@mastodon.social Do you have a nice place to live? Material conveniences? Ability to travel to desired locations? As long we rely on a $ currency standard, or maintain a capitalist system those would be manifestations of payment in $ or maybe credits in the future. If we can transform to a different system, there could be other options for rewards
