Do you always extrapolate your own experience as universal and never stop replying or actually look at data? Do you spend your weekend hanging out on multiuse paths and yell at people riding by on beach cruisers, "you should wear a helmet"?

Ugh on helmet shaming. Urban bike infrastructure should be so good you don't need a helmet.

Can you imagine being a journalist who writes this headline up as if it were real? Does one just pretend they didn't write the same shit two weeks ago and four weeks ago and two months ago, etc etc etc? At long last, do you have no sense of dignity?cà

I'm old enough to remember when the Washington Post Op-Ed page platformed that racist bullshit from Michael Anton without fact-checking the quotes www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/cit...

It's even more hilarious that the NYT author dinged her for a slight misstatement about the name of a partnership *speaking extemporaneously* while the piece itself, written afterwards and supposedly edited, has a correction for a similar mistake.

Well if you are too good to actually cite/explain anything maybe you should fix your ssrn profile linked in yr bio. It has a broken link to your UCLA homepage so plebes like me can't actually go and actually see your work

I don't know your video needs, but it's likely doable. As for too expensive, for anyone with 10K+ subs, Ghost (Pro) hosting is insanely cheap vs 10% of yr income $241 or $366 a month for 75K subscribers & unlimited emails? As for network effects, I'm *doubtful*. Lots of low quality followers /= $

The NYT's patricians loathe Mamdani. Despite it being clear he's gonna win, the NYT is keeping up its petty tactics. Either out of obstinacy or is a sign of what they plan to do once he is in office.

The NYT keeps showing it isn't up to the moment. It's an institution incapable of describing reality, dedicated to a fake non-partisan stance that always sucked and now enables fascism "protesters take part in ‘No Kings’ rallies focused on what they see as overreach by the Trump administration."
