This is also why you vote in the primary of the party with the candidates you like least.
If you view any candidate in party A as better than every candidate in party B, you need to vote in party B's primary so the best candidate for you will make it to the general election. Then even if party A loses the general election you still get the candidate you like most from party B.
This was a key strategy for black people in the south to get the least racist Democrats into office. It's basically ad hoc ranked choice voting and it reduces the power of extremists.

I'm not disagreeing in general, but I need to point out that this is like saying you should write Arabic numerals in order of decreasing powers of 10 because it autosorts on a computer.
It's the reverse. Computers automatically sort Arabic numerals and dates written in decreasing powers because those are the correct formats.
I have left-hand threaded fittings on a few things and always say to myself aloud "This is reverse-threaded" before I attempt to turn them then still fuck up first turn. It doesn't stop me from fucking it up the first time - it just helps me remember why.
When I train new people on this equipment I tell them to say it aloud, show them, still fuck up the first turn, then they laugh.
Then I have them do it in front of me including saying it aloud - and they fuck up the first turn...
When you've been doing something unconsciously for decades it's really hard to break.
"Those against making Election Day a federal holiday argue that such a large focus on one day is misguided, since almost 70% of ballots in the 2020 presidential election were cast before Election Day."
The two things I can think of are the company may try to tag you for inappropriately handling what they consider confidential information -- and if something goes to court and the email ends up in the discovery process, opposing council may be allowed access to your entire personal email account.
It's probably better to copy everything as an attachment to a dedicated portable drive so it's less likely to be called out by the company, and if it ends up it court you only need to release the information on that drive.
In a sane world they would just get to school earlier and leave earlier - that's all DST effectively does while adding a heaping helping of absolute insanity.
A cylinder would allow all geodesics, but then it would still have two 90 degree angles and two 270 degree angles so still not a square. I think it would be a trapezoid/trapezium, and might be a parallelogram depending on what definition you use.
There might be some crazy custom shape that makes the angles on the more complete circle segment actually 90 degrees but I don't think there's a common easy-to-conceive shape that works.
Spheres and hyperbolas. EDIT: oh they mean this specific shape not just any non-Euclidean square, so those won't work.
I haven't thought about a cone much but I think no.
The definition of a square is a polygon with four equal sides and four equal angles (nothing about 90 degrees and nothing about internal vs external angles since people love to get hung up on that)
A cone is half a hyperbola but I think without the symmetry of a hyperbola you can only get two angles equal at a time or two sides equal at a time.
They've already been trounced for pulling up a 6 year old article using 8 year old data.
Then they doggedly refused to do the math for recent years that there's literally a school shooting every week in the US.
And that doesn't even touch mass shootings in general.
The really sad part is they do eventually make a point that a lot of the problem is mental health and America's obsession with gun violence. But simply refusing to even admit to the actual frequency of the shootings or that the availability of guns is part of the issue means they'll continue to be ignored.
This is the way. Though I've had to come to a full stop and pull off the road a couple times...
