Personal bests
gollark: I do generally prefer flying to cars for reasonably long distances, but the whole "security" thing at airports really does a great job at making me reevaluate that. And is not actually improving security at all.
gollark: How does hyperloop compare to regular maglevs?
gollark: The Thought Police ~~would like to~~ know your location.
gollark: Yes.
gollark: It seems like score voting (or approval I guess, easiest change) would be the best system for voting. But there are a lot of annoying tradeoffs and weird issues. Also Arrow's theorem, but IIRC that only affects ranked ones.
