Am I just not remembering... but were poll much more reliable in the 90s and 10s?
Now they just seem like ... feelings. And, knowing someone in the "industry" it's very... let's just say they want to be right but they are doing a lot of weighting and overthinking.
It's just hard to get a good sample.
"has already won with early voting."
This is false. There is practically a whole week of voting to go and most votes will be cast on election day.
I do not think pollsters can predict a race like this where the voting population has changed so drastically.
It could go *any* way.
If the polls are correct... that it is a blow out they will regain a fraction of my trust. If they are off by more than four I will continue to ignore them.
Also... Biden Harris Mamdani all very different.
That's not how it works. They endorsed him because he is the Democrat.
I'm still confused why you think Cuomo couldn't work with the city council.
Needs the city council for what?
What would a Cuomo victory do?
"And once they improve their marketing"
They are really starting at the bottom on this, take solace in that.
I do think a different kind of company could pick up ideas along these lines and pitch them better and make a mess. Though though chatGPT seems to be doing that already along with the "AI therapists"
This is positioning itself like a status tech item and marketing like one. It makes no sense.
The high turnout in this race makes the results harder to predict. Make no assumptions based on the polls.
79,409 votes on Saturday is great for the first day of early voting but also, what a small number for a city of eight million!
Your vote will matter.
New Yorkers flooded the polls on Saturday, turning out in record numbers for the first day of early voting.

I think the curve is good, but too many fingers in the ground. Maybe that small one on the left could be hidden more?
It may take a lot of leaves to hide the lack of taper in the trunk.
I don't really know how to make trees do these things, but I love reading bonsai evaluations and have developed thoughts...

I was in a small apartment and felt much the same as you. Though. We have, like, parks and stuff. There's a whole river right over there! You can grill and watch the boats.
This explains a lot.
“The goal, he says, [is] to provoke a cultural debate about what counts as friendship in the age of artificial intelligence.”
No one is talking about this.
Like if you wanted to do this as a stunt you'd make the people doing the defacing seem more clueless and pointlessly mean.
I don't think so. The stuff people write is too funny.

I think about the young men who buy into a very particular (and narrow) version of dating culture who "discover" going to the kind of bars where people just hook up and using hook up apps has left them feeling like women just want them for their money (and this is bad news since they don't have any)
...or the young women who frequent the same spaces who think all men are beasts who just want to use your body and leave.
But...they went to the place for that?
Oh not in this photo... just on this street.
