I feel like I'm going to fall into one of the Myst ages looking at that book.

Polls are when organizations teach out to a percentage of the population (phone, Internet) to ask them their voting intentions.

Exit polls are the same thing, but are done after people have voted.

Sample size/distribution is supposed to be done in a way that reflects the voting intentions of the populace as a whole (doesn't always work out that way).

Yep. Abandoning electoral reform was a huge mistake not only for the Liberal party, but for the country as a whole.

AI is generally bad because it tends to steal content from human creators and is largely being pushed because corporations want another excuse to throw more workers on the street in favor of machines (while simultaneously raising their prices).

There are some AI uses that are good though, such as AI voice generation to help those that can't speak to communicate with the world and not sound like a robot.

Well, not all LLMs are created equal. Some are decent, some are slop, some are nightmare machines

The source you posted states that "potato skins offer about half the nutrition of potato meat". Meaning potato flesh has about twice the nutrition of the skin. I didn't claim that the skin has no value, just that the majority of the nutrients are in the flesh.

That's a myth though. Most of the nutrients are in the potato flesh.

Seriously. There are also people on Lemmy that think anyone who has sympathy for civilians also support terrorists.

How absolutely fucking brain-dead do you have to be to not understand that killing civilians is wrong? You can hate the rulers of Israel, Hamas, and Hezbollah while simultaneously hoping that Israeli, Palestinian, and Lebanese civilians don't get hurt.

This isn't rocket science.

There's no circle, so that's just a star, not a Pentagram. Even if there was a circle, the orientation of the star would make it a Pentacle, not a Pentagram.

Meme, and therefore my day, is ruined! /s
