Dirt don't vote, so why are we drawing circles on a map? Just section off a list a of eligible voter' names or IDs. After all you're not representing area, you're representing unity.
Even better: have representatives who represent people.
We have proper information systems, we can do this. A representative gets qualified by having the appropriate minimum number of people sign up as their constituents. They then represent exactly those people.
For all the examples of doing geographic districts I sometimes wonder why is that specific special interest group that gets privileged with a district separation instead of any other way to split people. Prussia split districts by wealth too but that was a way to give more power to the rich.
How would you section off the list? If you do it uniformly randomly, then every constituency looks identical and you'll get identical results in each constituency. This creates a very non-representative result. Notably, large racial minorities would have their voting power diluted.
It seems that LeetCode and HackerRank have become the SAT and ACT of the SV Big Techs, and FAANG et al are becoming the workplace Ivy Leagues. If so then where are the Khan Academy, Coursera, Udacity, and local coding boot camps of the world?
That's an interesting idea. Someone could get a subscription of $30/month for unlimited access to portalable batteries. Along the route if the car runs low just pick one up at a convicent location, put it in the back and keep on driving. Once the car is charged simply return the portable battery at another drop off location.
