Neat, here's a study commissioned by SF from 2023 www.hcd.ca.gov/sites/defaul...
n. According to 2022 APR data, it takes an
average of 523 days for a housing project to be entitled,
compared to 385 days for the next slowest jurisdiction in
the state.3 It takes an average of 605 days for San Francisco
to issue a building permit to an already entitled housing
project, compared to 418 days in the next slowest
jurisdiction.4 Independent research by UCB found that the
median entitlement timeframe for development that
conforms to San Francisco’s local zoning and planning
requirements is over two ye

The limits placed on creators of the current times is if they work for a big publisher/studio they need to do remakes
Every game you've ever loved is a product of its time, and a reflection of the limitations placed on its creators.

Unfortunately we've literally built ourselves into a corner. There is no cost-effective way to do bus routes in the area pictured, b/c everything here was legally required to be built in a way hostile to any mass transit. And nearly every new US development in the last 50 years was built like this.
Aerial picture of a Walmart in the midst of suburban/exurban sprawl. It has a massive parking lot beside an arterial road, but the surrounding housing is spread out and the subdivision roads are winding and extremely inefficient for any kind of bus to navigate, with no natural place to put a stop as a catchment area for a large number of residents due to the consistent, low density.

Back somersault. Pry off the alligator's jaw. Use it as a boomerang to take out the snake. When he falls out the tree the lion will go straight for the easier meal.
Screenshot of a scene from Venture Bros, transcript:

Dean: No worries Brock. I'll walk you through the written portion. Question one. You're in Prague. A sniper's in the window above you. There's an alligator behind you and a grizzly bear in front of you. What do you do? Do you-
Brock: Back somersault. Pry off the alligator's jaw. Use it as a boomerang to take out the sniper. When he falls out the window the grizzly will go straight for the easier meal.

Some users have alleged that the man in the footage attempted to launch an attack upon the officers, aiming to set them on fire by pouring a line of gasoline in front of them, which is why law enforcement reacted so harshly to him. However, there is no evidence proving that this was the case.

What about the lesson that right wing reactionaries have and will always criticize protests as violent literally no matter what?

A federal judge is raising alarms that the Trump administration deported a two-year-old U.S. citizen to Honduras with “no meaningful process,” even as the child’s father was frantically petitioning the courts to keep her in the country.

The way Bluesky truncates threads can lead to some strange results
Two skeets, the top one is about remaking Dragon Age 2, then there's a "View full thread" button followed by a skeet by the same poster starting "Anyway, there are two functional types of food delivery in Gotham:"

Dr Seuss political cartoon from World War 2 showing Nazi Germany as a bird having pecked down trees with the names of various European countries, and currently pecking through the trunk of "England", with a complacent/smug bird in an Uncle Sam hat sitting on an undisturbed tree saying, "Ho hum! When he's finished pecking down that last tree he'll quite likely be tired."

Screenshot of a quote: "    First Thoughts are the everyday thoughts. Everyone has those. Second Thoughts are the thoughts you think about the way you think. People who enjoy thinking have those. Third Thoughts are thoughts that watch the world and think all by themselves. They’re rare, and often troublesome. Listening to them is part of witchcraft.

Musk tweet griping about "Not enough talent [meaning billionaire industrialists] in manufacturing & heavy industries."

Reply says: "Interesting point, but an example might make it clearer. Can you think of a prominent person who's currently wasting his talents in software when he could be working on manufacturing and heavy industries?"

It's not just a pay thing either www.fastcompany.com/3062989/50-reas…
Excerpt from the linked article: "Someone with a one-hour commute in a car needs to earn 40% more to be as happy as someone with a short walk to work. On the other hand, researchers found that if someone shifts from a long commute to a walk, their happiness increases as much as if they’d fallen in love"

This is why the existence of billionaires is inherently corrosive to democracy. Anand Giridharadas goes into this a lot, how billionaires hijacking efforts to improve the public good are always self-serving.
