1/ @Westlaw Edge introduced a new, annoying feature. In older versions, when I searched for "Supreme Court," the "U.S. Supreme Court Cases" database would pop-up first. Now, Edge "suggests" articles that are unhelpful. I have to scroll down to find the DB.
2/ Same for the JLR database (Journals and Law Reviews). No, I am not searching for "Personal Jurisdiction Due Process." I want the JLR database. The "Suggestions" feature is not helpful.
3/ The new "suggestions" feature punishes older users who still want to search specific databases, rathe than searching across Westlaw's entire infrastructure.

I've expected this move, which could make a cert petiton viable for argument and decision October 2019 term--right in time for the election
My tentative explanation: if #SCOTUS declares Obamacare unconstitutional, then Trump can claim victory as the Obamacare slayer. And if #SCOTUS upholds Obamacare, he can run on the platform of needing more votes to repeal. Either way, he claims victory.
In any event, expect oral arguments in the 5th Circuit the week of July 8. This date puts us on track for a decision by the early fall, and an orderly cert petition by November/December 2019.

So, @MaxBoot, strap in and I am going to try to give a primer on how historians ask and answer questions about the relationship between the past and present. You want to know about 1) drop off in enrollment, 2) lack of historical knowledge, and 3) who is responsible for 1 and 2.
Now, next point to hit is: what the premises of the different questions? Point 1: yes, there is a drop off in enrollment. So: valid premise to research and draw conclusions on. Point 2: not really clear if this is the case.
Having, for various reasons, done a lot of reading about the origins of history departments in the US, there are always generational complaints like this. But, to go along, I'll tentatively grant that the premise for Point 2 is correct.

#New PA cong. map increases D chance of winning the House majority by 4%. They only need a 6.8% generic ballot margin now (down from 7.7) to be favored.

Diff. will be closer to 10% in Nov when uncertainty from polls is ⬇️. Redraw is a very big deal.

One major reason the new PA map is such a big gain for Democrats is that it solidifies, not just tips, PA districts in Philly burbs. Also creates one additional vulnerable R district. (Easily seen in this map made by @JMilesColeman)
My forecasting model will have new PA map in the near future. This is not just a simple switch; it’s a coding redesign, restructuring of input, & drawing new geographic files. Takes a while (for me, a student).

In the meantime, just add 3-4% to the model: bit.ly/2018_house

Lean into this thread like #Zuckerbitch leaned into Kremlin financing. 😍😍
2/ Angry @LincolnsBible is the best @LincolnsBible.

Funny thing about trying to play the victim now, Zuck. It's a bit of a hard sell after numerous people tried to help you before and you called their efforts to educate you a "pretty crazy idea".
3/ All the way back in October 2010, you did this, Mark.

"Facebook will supply Yandex with a data feed of status updates from Facebook Pages."

"Yandex says it will add the Facebook data into its blog search index."

Closing in on 8 years ago.
