@CasPiancey when i first visited my thought was: "there are so many people here, and they could all leave"

@bdowney @kelseyhightower if two people vote with the same name and address then the police know whose door to knock on

and if there's enough such votes to move the needle then they'll give that electorate a do-over, never actually happened afaik

@bdowney i feel that the reflectiveness of the seemingly pink case is throwing me, but that's a pink case

"well I did that with telegram, actually? it was seamless. and we all know telegram is e2ee"

my interlocutor was an engineer at meta at the time, of some seniority

@bdowney I remember having an argument about E2E encryption in facebook messenger that went like this:
