It's been a while since I heard a billionaire sports team owner say that maximizing profit wasn't the primary goal. Well done, Matt Ishbia. www.instagram.com/reel/DeBMIOz...

More money for drivers, less money for transit. Our "progressive" government hard at work.

The Premier League statement is devastating. It makes the LA Clippers sound like rank amateurs when compared to the fraud committed by Manchester City.

Really fantastic to see "reduce pedestrian fatalities" in the COPE public safety pillar of their platform, with tangible concrete actions. Great work from @copevancouver.bsky.social recognizing that road safety = public safety.

More brilliant work from the @vancouverpd.bsky.social in Gastown as two officers parked their cruiser so it impeded both the crosswalk and bike route and created a choke point for vehicles travelling along Water Street. @visionzerovancouver.ca

A Vancouver PD police SUV parked to that it blocks most of a crosswalk and bike route.

It was a central image of 1984, naive as it seems now. Even Orwell couldn't imagine your toothbrush or kettle spying on you, yet here we are.

People who sit in cars think they're free while, against all evidence, they hate those who have found a car-free life. It's a clinical psychosis.

What Pablo Torre did was ridiculously impressive. Uncovered a conspiracy between rich guys, withstood a propaganda campaign by one of the richest guys in the world with a pretty good reputation, didn't buckle or panic, and just kept reporting. That's some Pulitzerin' right there.

If the VPD and ABC cared about public safety, they'd do something to make the roads safer. They clearly don't.

No one had to think super hard about how to make a washing machine useful. A telephone. A vacuum cleaner. So why do our bosses have to constantly challenge us to find something, anything, for which AI might be helpful If your customers don’t find your product useful, that’s a you-problem
