pointsofdata posted:this isn't even some archaic procedure that you can blame on the constitution or something, it's entirely up to the democratic party to fix it (apparently the current system is "simplified" compared to previous years already lol) After 2016, progressives wanted to get rid of superdelegates, who had mostly supported Hillary (though it ultimately didnt matter). Moderates meanwhile wanted to get rid of caucuses, because they appeared to have favoured Bernie relative to normal primaries (again, didnt matter). So a compromise was struck whereby superdelegates could not vote except in cases of a brokered convention, which are unheard of under the modern system. In exchange, all remaining caucus states switched to a ballot system. You can probably guess which super-super-special, first-in-the-nation state got to keep its archaic, 19th-century-rear end caucus.

Methanar posted:https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/iowa-caucus-coin-toss/ Actually it looks like I was wrong in this case on the exact way that the caucus system is dumb. In this case it was dumb in a different manner. another poster posted:The precinct has 8 total delegates, but rounding each result to the nearest whole only got them a total 7, so the extra delegate goes to the one who has the highest decimal portion below .5 (because otherwise it would've already been rounded up) - So if for example Warren had 2.4, the extra delegate would have gone to her.

that is the right rule, although it would still be better if the denominator was just the remaining groups

this is not a surprise to me at all cuz i've been seeing google doing this poo poo forever in their maps database go to google maps, pick any restaurant, and go to the photos of the restaurant inside maps (not clicking out to yelp or anything) as you scroll thru, you'll find Weird pics that are not of the restaurant, just random poo poo that gets associated to it off people's phones. my only thought is, that people go out and do $thing, turn their phones off/have no cell service, go to get something to eat and turn it back on, photos upload automatically from android, and then google tags them as the restaurant photos instead of where they originally were. It's all over the place

Your photo on maps has 900,000 views. <img-sidewalk-vomit> That's great. Upload more blah blah' good for a laugh every time

Two years from now we learn about a security key manufacturer who told a developer to rewrite and close-source Google's code in C to obfuscate stealing it. And make these changes to enable customer telemetry. Hire whoever is cheapest.
