Michael Moore suggest Democrats need to get rid of the electoral college. Gerrymandered districts, states cheats Republicans into the white house, the USA is a liberal majority, since 1988 only 1 presidential election had a Republican majority (2004 cause John Kerry was too much of a boring schmuck it should have been Howard Dean instead) https://youtu.be/qJS6zDqsgEo

The Supreme Court just ruled the government's decades-old practice of warrantlessly tracking your historical movements via cellphone records (CSLI) has in many cases violated the constitutional right to privacy. Major victory for ACLU ― and America. @adam https://twitter.com/Snowden/status/1010172998291283968?s=09

@adam the BART issue is probably like this, all local politicians only have 4 year terms and don't want to be seen as the ones that had to increase local taxes to fund a more future proof BART extension train track. The fact that building + running costs will be double overall after 15 years of running the train does not matter to them. Also the costs probably in the hundreds of millions of dollars in lost productivity by all the users having to switch trains is also not factored.
@adam when you swap, on your in-vehicle display or on your smartphone you click if you agree to use an older battery with less range you can get a discount on your monthly fee to maybe $80/month, and anytime when there are new batteries in the future coming with more range, if you want a newer battery with 30-40% more range, just upgrade your monthly fee to about $120/month maybe. Governments/industry should standardize EV battery sizes/weights/swapping bolts and systems, easy.
@adam the reason Elon Musk can't agree to sell Tesla cars without the battery and offer all batteries and swapping as a separate service is because Elon Musk has too many Billions of dollars invested in building a giant Gigafactory ERV battery factory, he needs to sell the batteries to every Tesla user, as a big part of the cost of a Tesla, over $15K per battery. Instead a $35K Tesla should be sold at $20K without the battery and you'd pay a fee around $100/month for battery+charging+swapping.
@adam the Tesla EV model would just be fully perfect if only they would implement it as Better Place once tried, Electric Vehicles need to run on standard sized batteries regulated by the Government and you must be able to swap your EV battery "for free" at EV battery swap stations which could be located pretty much everywhere. No need to plug and recharge if you are going on a long road trip. They should have battery swap stations along every highway. Elon Musk is too scared to do it this way.
@adam instead of just having compatible extended BART. This just shows how the USA always never thinks on the long term. Same thing about pulling out of the Paris agreement. The USA does not like to invest in the future. Public transportation in the USA is a joke compared to Europe and China.
The $500 million savings they got by building biodiesel BART extension will be all spent within 8 years as refueling by biodiesel is more than twice as expensive as running the trains on electricity. This means that if you look 15 years down into the future (especially looking into forecasts of electricity vs biodiesel costs), that BART extension will be twice as expensive including all that biodiesel fuel and all the users will need to endure the pain and time wasted having to switch BART @adam
By the way, Netflix just signed up the comedian Michelle Wolf to make her own talkshow starts airing May 27th it'll be called Break. @adam
White House Correspondents Dinner comedian Michelle Wolf was awesome. Last year was also quite awesome. Trump being too much of a pussy to show up, as every president otherwise has since Nixon during watergate scandal, I think.
@Charbax @adam and Amazon's algorithms work pretty great, Jeff Bezos is now the world's richest person, unless Trump slumped their stock recently due the cheap US Postal Service complaint. Sometimes people do want to buy something a second time or seeing an ad can trigger them to remember to rate the item which can help sell more of it. Thought Netflix was big? Amazon Prime is even bigger, to spend $20 Billion per year on content, becoming world's largest movie/TV content producer.
Blockchain democracy won't work. But online "direct democracy" voting definitely will work. There are ways to verify all votes are valid, there are ways to algorithmically include the secluded offline grand-mother securely too.
You basically ask people to vote on everything, people don't have to vote if they don't have time or don't care. The algorithm can automatically identify the best representatives of the people among all the people, based on people's voting patterns easily. @adam
Get the democrats to support the banning of guns for anyone on mood altering medicine, and you'll be happy with all the other stuff the kids want to such as ban guns for sub-21years olds, banning of bump stocks, all infrastructure for background checks to ban guns for anyone with any mental issues as little as anything that involves them taking mood altering medicine (= depression or any stuff like that) @adam
You can't trust battery swap robots for EV, so you think all the gas petrol network is manual and involves no automation because McDonalds milkshake machines don't work? @adam the only reason Tesla doesn't battery swap yet as default is because Elon Musk has a lot of batteries that he needs to sell, if you pay $10k less for an EV and only you pay battery swap/access service it changes everything. Tesla don't need to change everything they are busy enough tryong to manufacture for their demand.
