It’s kind of neat you can launch a version of Visual Studio code by pressing ‘.’ though.

Still not sure why, especially given that it’s pretty much impossible to find out that you can even do that.

I am, no worries.

Using reverse proxies is common enough now that quite a few apps can deal with subpaths, and for the ones that can’t you can generally get nginx to rewrite the paths for you to make things work.

Put simply you just give every candidate points out of 10 and then elect the one with the highest average.

Approval voting (not acceptance, my mistake), simplifies things a bit by only allowing none or all points. Which is the best if you want to vote tactically anyway.

This method sidesteps a couple of the issues that Arrow’s impossibility theorem raises, and is easy enough to understand. Ranked choice is better than first past the post but still has the issue that adding an additional candidate can affect the end result in complex ways.

With approval voting most aspects are easy to understand. Adding or removing candidates trivially has no effect on the rest of the result. And while you can still vote tactically the only real tactic is where you put your cutoff, you should still vote for the option(s) you like best.

Why not acceptance/range voting?

I mean, that’s how federation ought to work right?

Though it’s a bit of a shame that moving user accounts doesn’t really seem to be a thing yet.

People are weird. I mean they’re completely fine with random people at google knowing their exact location what they’re doing and what websites they look at, but as soon as you start following them around in public they get all upset!

Seriously though, I’m guessing that an app just doesn’t feel very ‘threatening’ somehow. It’s just an appliance, in some sense. You don’t care about the toilet seeing your private parts right?
