Happy second birthday to the Overlook Walk, a piece of infrastructure that I can't imagine Seattle without at this point.

Unrelated, I have been seeing more and more sun umbrellas during summer which is a worrying sign.

I see more and more umbrellas around here. I think the norm is slowly changing. The main issue is that we have some narrow sidewalks and actual foot traffic downtown.

Depends on what you're optimizing for. If it's road safety then don't discount the EVs too much, if at all.

My Brompton electric has to take me 20 miles a day, over hills. I think I worked out that it is probably about $15 per year in electricity. Biggest cost is battery degradation since I was cycling it a bunch (they don't have the largest capacity).

A lot of people like sprawl. While we should not subsidize it like we do today, I believe that people should be allowed to have what they want and are willing to pay for. (Most people won’t be willing to pay the actual cost of insuring a house in the woods in the time of climate change wildfires.)

Why doesn’t WSDOT run a mix of car and passenger only fast ferries? Bremerton FF is 2x faster and costs 1/4 to operate and is waay easier to electrify

This is nuts. @murray.senate.gov: “Tying funding for transit projects to marriage rates and how many babies a woman has is the sort of bizarre and dystopian idea you’d expect in a TV show, not actual policy put forth by the U.S. government — yet here we are."

If you're designing pagination, then I feel strongly that it's < Newer | Older > lawsofux.com/jakobs-law/ is the deciding factor here. it might not be the way you design it from first principles, but basically every existing pagination tool i can think of uses this order.

Such a cool resource! I'm going to stick with the API for now I think (because I've been poking at FRED for the better part of two decades now and don't need the intermediation) but if you're econ data-curious this makes it WAY easier to access. fredhelp.stlouisfed.org/fred/data/ai...
