Mathematically, it totally does. You can plug the numbers in to a sample size calculator yourself and see that it works. Or you can argue that pollsters around the world are wrong to declare the Hobby School of Public Affairs one of the top pollsters. These people know what they are doing and recognized for doing it extremely well.

> The survey was fielded between January 9 and January 19, 2023, in English and Spanish, with 1,200 YouGov respondents, resulting in a confidence interval of +/-2.8%. The respondents were matched to a sampling frame on gender, age, race/ethnicity, and education and are representative of the population of Texas adults.

It is mathematically and scientifically sound.

Those only looked for keywords and ignored all other text. So you might type, "Tell me about the rabbits again George." And the only keywords are "tell", "me" and "rabbits". So you could type "tell me rabbits" and it would mean the same thing. Every possibility would have to be accounted for by the developers.

These new models are far more advanced and talks and understands text like a person.

There’s a big difference between 110s and 100s. Maybe the mobile goalpost should be reading comprehension.

Is it really that hard to understand peak demand scales up faster with every degree past the 100s. Certain people can limit ac use in the 100s. That number is way lower in the 110s. Your hottest days were our average summer day.
