Third, maybe disconnect the data and execution diagrams and treat the execution side as an FSM. Data side produces continuous named values and the execution side progresses from state to state based on those values and whatever constitutes an 'event'. Starts to look like verilog or other sim langs.
Hmmm, first I'd consider moving 'a < b' over to the data side and have it produce a boolean. Second, since '<' isn't commutative, I'm not sure if graphically representing its input as a single port is a good idea.
I think language like "probably just as bad" and "deeply flawed" is internalizing the opposition's marketing. As nominees go, HRC wasn't deeply flawed, she was deeply attacked and we decided on a lazy compromise of 'She's awful but...' rather than 'No'.

Armchair internet rando thoughts - probably not hyperinflation as that kind of presumes the rest of the world carries on while your little nation of Fuckuppia augers in. Maybe bouts of... um... meso? inflation. Maybe more likely a series of cascading breakages like in "The Machine Stops".
Bluesky has developed such that the "left wing" is left-anarchists and the "right wing" is left wingers mainstream enough to have written for Mother Jones, and I feel this means we're at real risk of site-internal arguments (anything that involves quote boosting to disagree) being counterproductive.
My guess is they'd announce themselves the "True(tm) Catholics" set up an Avignon Pope in Moscow or Little Rock or someplace and wait for Pope Trump I.
My current working theory is RFKJr didn't like shots as a kid and is angry he got circumcised and this is all an elaborate revenge fantasy by a man with the mind of a 4yo.
I wonder how many folks where they mutually don't like each other but haven't cleaned out their contacts since 1995 get remined by telegram "Oh, that asshole still exists... and just installed telegram".
