America’s first Arab majority city of which 42% of votes went to Trump versus 36% for Kamala Harris is upset with Democrats for not doing more to stop Trump’s anti-immigrant actions.

I keep wondering, what did they expect? Did they sleep through his entire first term?

RT 【有關立法會「選舉」的雖然…但是】

立法會「選舉」塵埃落定,在對分子分母、廢票數量與比例報以微笑的同時,有些事實應該要認清,有些現實要接受。

一、雖然整個「選舉」已經極度缺乏實際競爭、所有人來自同一派系面目模糊,雖然官方的表態已經一再表明他們重視的是「投票率」而不是誰人當選,以此佐證「完善」後的系統和制度,雖然「選舉」前十日發生宏福苑大火全城悲痛,令社會大眾對整個體制的運作的質疑再次去到新的高度。

但是,仍然會有 130 萬人出去投票,就是有大體上 130 萬人會幾乎在任何條件和前提下,成為政府的基本盤,無論如何都難以撼動。

二、雖然民建聯因為黃碧嬌的因素,在「選舉」前早早告急看似進退失據,雖然民建聯總體所得選票比上屆少了 36%。

但是,民建聯在全部所有直選選區中,每區都有一個人當選,加上選委界和功能組別,民建聯在下屆立法會取得 20 席,比上屆還要再多一席,仍然是立法會第一大黨。

若果有人曾經想像投民建聯對家作為 protest vote,現實是實際效果除了輕輕推高投票率外,並無作用,因為古語有云:人無恥、則無敵。

I found Isabel Zimmerman talk « Making GUI Data Exploration Reproducible with Python » very interesting.

Interacting graphically with data and getting the Pandas or Polars code for reproducibility thanks to Positron IDE : positron.posit.co/

There are so many FCC comment periods that will close right at the beginning of January, on really stupid, short-sighted, make-billionaires-richer things they want to do with loosening the already incredibly loose regulations for satellites. I am tired. But I have to write stuff for these, because it's the one and only way to formally protest. Fuck.

電気圧力鍋は、食のQOL上がるなぁ。大根と手羽元を炊いたけど、材料を放り込んでタイマーをセットしたら終わりは楽すぎる。冬場の煮炊きするものは全部これに任せられるし、ご飯も5分で炊ける(蒸らしを入れれば、もう少しかかるけど)から、すごくいい買い物だった
