Here in Oregon, there was a measure for outdoor school that passed -- basically, get the kids into the outdoors for a week where they can learn what's outside their computers and game machines.
Popular enough to pass, but probably not everybody's cup 'O tea (especially the kids, who got no vote on the matter).
We can program with only 1's, but if all you've got are zeros, you've got nothing.

Last time I was in Portland I almost died from your last big ballot measure. It was like a dense fog!

That's pretty much the description of any election around here -- there's always some big ballot measure -- although I suspect I know which one you're specifically referring to

Well, we parents did pretty much do this to our kids. Have third graders walk 8 blocks to school? No way, they should ride a school bus if its that far. Let the kids walk three blocks and cross a highway to get to the beach to play? No way, let me drive you.
I feel sorry for kids today, they get nannied practically to the point of agoraphobia. I'm just glad I grew up in a time when letting your kids do that sort of stuff was acceptable.

We had 17 Propositions[^] in California and a number of local measures (five, in my case).
There is quite a range - take a look at these:
60 - Adult Films. Condoms (required). Health Requirements.
62 - Repeal the Death Penalty.
63 - Firearms. Ammunition Sales.
64 - Marijuana Legalization.
67 - Ban on Single-Use Plastic Bags (provided by stores).

I'm rather intrigued by the prospect of tomorrow's picture of open space.

I've been reading that a lot of Russians (including Putin) are pleased that Trump has won.
Can someone from Russia shed some light on this?
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Russians (in general) like authoritarian leaders.
I'd rather be phishing!

Canadians (in general) like to make generalized statements.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

I hate all generalizations!

Because Putin will be able to chew him up and spit him out like gum.
That, and plans to weak NATO.
