But it sounds cool

2018-10-20 12:57:27 UTC  

hey guys you know the 4 square political test?

2018-10-20 12:57:41 UTC  

does anybody else feel like it should be working on atleast 3-4 dimensions

2018-10-20 12:58:51 UTC  

sorta asking after discussion with right wing friend who in a geo-political aspect ends up being put as authoritarian typically, but on a personal level is very libertarian

2018-10-20 12:59:40 UTC  

over-complicating needlessly isn't worth a damn, but all the same the test(s) itself misses finer points of ones viewpoints

2018-10-20 13:00:59 UTC  

Might be a matter of changing the questions rather than the layout.

2018-10-20 13:24:55 UTC  

there's sapply for 3 dimensions

2018-10-20 13:25:03 UTC  

and 8values is 4 dimensions

2018-10-20 13:41:15 UTC  

8 values doesnt illustrate my political leaning via hypercubes tho

2018-10-20 13:46:31 UTC  

well... yeah, we can't perceive hypercubes

2018-10-20 13:52:44 UTC  

Maybe you can't

2018-10-20 13:54:42 UTC  

D:

2018-10-20 14:31:16 UTC  

):

2018-10-20 16:36:08 UTC  

Yeah, these tests aren't really that good. I think the majority are actually made to be push-polls. Furthermore it's really not obvious that political orientation should exist on any reasonable dimensional space.

2018-10-20 17:20:26 UTC  

Seems to me that you can directly measure the dimensionality of a political test by measuring the independence/orthogonality/correlation between questions.

2018-10-20 18:21:53 UTC  

OK. How do you define orthogonality?

2018-10-20 18:32:46 UTC  

Perpendicular

2018-10-20 18:42:32 UTC  

It's just the collinearity between responses to the test questions.

2018-10-20 20:40:40 UTC  

politiscales is my fave tho

2018-10-20 20:40:57 UTC  

would be cool if we had a channel to post test results, for easy comparison

2018-10-20 22:02:38 UTC  

Is it possible to opt out of discord policy change in regards to class action law suit?

if you are in EU area you dont need to do anything.

2018-10-20 22:04:28 UTC  

Gotcha

2018-10-20 22:05:02 UTC  

While I believe that the EU has such measures tied into GDPR (Article 77) to prevent this sort of change in a terms of service, simply overriding the companies choice. The US and some other countries do not have such a law. See https://xq.ms/4dI4k

Fallout 76 looks bad

2018-10-21 04:35:55 UTC  

looks like a waste of money

2018-10-21 07:20:26 UTC  

I think America is too lazy to have a civil war.

2018-10-21 07:22:29 UTC  

Or is it that there is not a greater humanitarian crisis that makes sense to do so.

2018-10-21 09:39:40 UTC  

We're not going to have a civil war nor should we. The only one we had was due to deep seeded, long standing issues from at least the founding of the nation. Only approximately 90 years later at great fear of one side winning out permanently did any such thing happen. Presently we have a much more stable form of government with disagreement on what's more along the lines of details than the big picture.

2018-10-21 10:36:05 UTC  

Well, most people yes, there is however a small revolutionary bunch that permanently causes trouble.

2018-10-21 10:36:22 UTC  

that bunch needs to be "purged" (=removed from position of power/influence).

2018-10-21 12:25:54 UTC  

@Timcast The Second Ref on Brexit is nothing more then the Trump is sucking Putins dick. These people lost and they lost their fucking minds. The entire establishment couldn't believe what just happened and talk of a second vote started immediately and has been growing from there. Name calling, wishing and being thankfull that 2 years has past so more old people are dead and can't vote leave again.
Project fear was kicked into over drive with a government trying to make to divorce process look as bad and as hard as possible.
We have not been giving what was promised and what the majority of people voted for.
The second vote is not grass roots, it is the biggest names in politics thinking the plebs made the wrong choice. They control the media and can make the outside world see what ever they want. A second ref would be an attack on the democratic process by the political and cultural elite who think they know better.
Much like the screaming banshees you have in the US backed up by celebs, this is a small group of children that have been stamping their feet for 2 years, They should be ignored.

2018-10-21 16:36:52 UTC  

There will be nothing stopping the brits from reapplying to the EU once they leave it

2018-10-21 16:37:01 UTC  

Except of course, the EU

2018-10-21 16:43:04 UTC  

Well, with things going the way they are right now, you might have been better off as a Member of the EU...

2018-10-21 16:43:12 UTC  

EU will be happy to take brits back and continue destroying their country

2018-10-21 16:43:16 UTC  

the EU might be authoritarian, but not THAT authoritarian...

2018-10-21 16:43:49 UTC  

When we leave and I mean leave, no common rule book, no open boarders, and we will start to see the benefits of being our own country, the EU will go full force with their plans of creating a USE and the people of the UK will see it all from the outside perspective. We will never join the EU again by choice.

2018-10-21 16:44:02 UTC  

May is one of the worst things hat could have happened to the UK. Sadly. Either she's that evil or that incompentent. Or both...

2018-10-21 16:45:34 UTC  

She an EU sycophant. She sees her self as no more than the custodian of the UK. She could of had statues made of her, now she'll be lucky if ppl don't dance on her grave.

2018-10-21 16:48:48 UTC  

Well, she deserves the (upcoming) Merkel treatment.
