Replying to @scottbelsky @xaviermalina @autogangnamfile
You _are_ aware of the power of defaults and the existence of dark patterns that discourage discovery of non-default behavior, right? And how blaming the user for not discovering something that has been made difficult to discover by design is not a good look?

I'm sorry, you can't hide behind "we kept the functionality, we just made it hard to find and continually nag you to get you to stop using it" when you get complaints like that.

It’s Wes Walz, the former Wild player and current broadcaster.
Matt Birk@BirkMatt9 Sep 2022
Things have gotten pretty heated as of late. So, I decided to be the bigger man- I reached out to Walz. He agreed to meet with me tomorrow morning. Hoping we can find common ground and move forward. Stay tuned.

Just a reminder that the MPRB has not only carefully studied options for 18 holes and wasn't able to figure out how they could be done, but the golfers did their level best last spring and produced what can only be described as an epic engineering fail.
Hiawatha for All@hiawatha4all5 May 2022
Barr Engineering has completed a contracted review of the golfers' 18-hole proposal for Hiawatha, and it is *relentless*. Section after section discrediting the inaccurate claims made by this proposal. A 🧵. Full review doc here: hiawatha4all.com/s/Hiawatha_… @stribrooks @shijundu
Based on other project experience, there are several components of Alternative 6 as proposed that would typically not be allowed/permitted by the technical review agencies and are explicitly prohibited by state statute. There are numerous permits that will be required for the construction of Alternative 6. These permits would also be required for the concept as outlined in the master plan. However, there are several components of Alternative 6 that would typically not be allowed/permitted by the technical review agencies and are explicitly prohibited by state statute. This brings into question the overall feasibility of Alternative 6 and ability to secure necessary permits.

Hope you enjoyed your moment of zen, now it's time to be angry again. There were so many myths we couldn't fit them all on our myths page so we made a whole document: hiawatha4all.com/s/Hiawatha-…

.@3M just “paused” all its political giving. This is not a “both sides” issue. They should join @att and @AmericanExpress & NEVER support those who tried to overturn our democratic election. #DrainTheTraitors
Incitement to violence has been occurring throughout. We learn which lives matter when we see which ones must be protected by the social media platforms
Many of us understand "it", Andrew. James Baldwin wrote about it, Medgar Evers and MLK Jr. were shot over it, Nina Simone sang about it, Nikole Hannah-Jones and Dr. Ibram X Kendi research it, Jamie Harrison lost because of it. I fight for voting rights so we can over come "it."

If 68 million people do something it’s vital that we understand it.

Just to be perfectly clear, nobody's won Pennsylvania – there are over ONE MILLION ballots that still haven't been counted. Our election officials are hard at work counting ballots, and they won't stop until we #CountEveryVote.

REMINDER—Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin election officials were not allowed to begin processing absentee ballots until on or just before Election Day, after Republican-led state legislatures opposed changing laws to allow earlier preparations like other states.
