@DrewSav It also says you talk like someone who lives in central Nevada. Nobody lives in central Nevada.

The next Democratic President must demolish this monstrosity on day one

[Xan @XanTweets]

@DrewSav “Artistic Rendering” is certainly a choice for AI-generated

[Xan @XanTweets]

@kkondik @NZFPatriot @NilesGApol yup, it moved to Leans R on Sept 6, and stayed there through the end

@ECaliberSeven also, nonzero chance at least *some* voters don’t know what “incumbent” means

[Xan @XanTweets]

@bobbykurlander @ProtonPrivacy While this is mostly true, there is a big difference requiring a process versus willingly submitting your data to an insecure archive.

[Xan @XanTweets]

@RationalBlonde So go move next to one.

@ECaliberSeven I remember a quote from 2018 that holds up well close to election day. “It’s Cook. Everything is a tossup.”

[Xan @XanTweets]

@DrewSav @ECaliberSeven Of course, Cook is being too conservative with the rate of movement. Factoring that into the overall picture takes some skill!

[Xan @XanTweets]

@DrewSav @ECaliberSeven I thought he was being way too conservative, but then I realized he set a deadline of August 31. It looks like it’ll be almost spot on

@DrewSav @JeffJacksonNC do you have a favorite Ninja Turtle to add to the spreadsheet? As a resident of North Carolina, this is an important question to me.

[Xan @XanTweets]

@DrewSav @GeneforTexas do you have a favorite Ninja Turtle?

@DavidCCrowley Please consider taking a strong stance against AI data centers!

This paper gives a fancy name to a problem you can already feel in your bones

"The Tragedy of the Cognitive Commons." Checking AI output requires deep expertise. Deep expertise comes from doing grunt work for years. And grunt work is the first thing AI eats

So we're building systems that need expert supervision while dismantling the only known process for making experts

The paper calls the shared pool of human expertise the "cognitive commons." Every profession drinks from it. Nobody's refilling it.

By eliminating junior roles, each company is acting totally rationally, and the collective result: a profession that can't catch AI's mistakes anymore because it never learned to do the work in the first place

Who checks AI's homework in 15 years?

[Xan @XanTweets]

@DrewSav I'm thinking she was a 1987 purchase and he's off by exactly 10 years

[Xan @XanTweets]

@cow_belle65 @DecisionDeskHQ Sounds like the legislature tacked those on just to make it more likely to pass (and failed)

[Xan @XanTweets]

@NateSilver538 As much as I'd like her to tone it down so she wins, I respect the authenticity.

[Xan @XanTweets]

@DrewSav Sounds counter-intuitive for winter. Why yes, it must be toasty for me to put on my coat and scarf.

@ForwardCarolina @FoxNews @RoyCooperNC NC-11 has moved the most of any district in the nation outside of redistricting. (Safe R -> Toss-Up)

[Xan @XanTweets]

@DarthWittebane @tomas_s242 @DrewSav In this hypothetical scenario, first past 50% (with RCV) wins the majority of delegates and the nomination.
