Helping a friend fill out a domestic violence restraining order and the many forms are in PDFs that have terrible crosslinking actions between fields - if you check one box then another box randomly unchecks, etc.
This is the kinda stuff local govs should open source on github

I don't think any of it's by design. It's just a lack of attention. Open source fixes that need.

They'll help you fill out paper forms at the SF courthouse if you go during the correct hours. I had to get one awhile back. 😬

Been saying forever that I'm voting for the guy who makes it a platform to make dealing with the govt exactly like dealing with Amazon. 1 click check out, 24x7 service, and a relentless focus on efficiency. Start with a constitutional digital bill of rights and I'll bend the knee
PDF forms make sense for a lot of applications, and I can see where the details about what affects what would be messed up with revisions
