... out of approximately 3.7 million, which is a vacancy rate in that case of 1.35% - generally considered to be a crisis level of unavailable housing.

AA and DL still operate more normally. Terminal 5 is really screwed up right now and I'm surprised JetBlue hasn't sued the Port Authority.

No, for JFK T5 specifically they also eliminated the taxi rank. The T5/T6 construction has made arrivals at T5 nearly unusable and I'm surprised JetBlue isn't screaming bloody murder

Aha - the R44 threw me for a loop and made me wonder if it was a Toronto train that had been CGIed like Apple did in their ads

This is a major problem with politics right now. 1938, 1959, 1999, 2015, whatever - everyone agrees the past was better than the future could possibly be for America (they just disagree on when in the past)

I don't understand why Brad Lander doesn't have more traction in the NYC mayoral race. He's accomplished, competent, has a lot of good policy ideas - really the Kathryn Garcia lane right there. What's missing?

I have never seen anything like this in NYC. 5th Ave covered from 42nd St well to the 20s. Nobody prepared for this volume. Volunteers are holding the traffic on all the side streets. No police in sight. #handsoff
Full of people down 5th avenue, view from 39th Street.

“Those nasty Canadians are ripping us off and are controlled by Mexican cartels. They’re poisoning us with fentanyl and need to become the 51st state or they will pay a high price” is a belief that literally ZERO Americans had six weeks ago. It’s entirely invented from scratch.

I compared the iPhone 16e (left) to a OnePlus Nord 4 (right) using our Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3. And pretty consistently in those weak signal situations, with a Vodafone Spain SIM card, the Snapdragon gave a better connection - sometimes, when the iPhone couldn't get a connection at all.

But of course, real-world testing matters too. So I went all over the Barcelona metro area, seeking weak signals - the kinds of places where your phone can show bars, but you can't quite connect. Like a comics museum with a Wolverine exhibit, or ... a random streetcorner outside a pizza place.

I spent yesterday testing the Apple iPhone 16e against a Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 phone. Yes, I am biased! But I'm also not wrong. First of all, the C1 is definitely short of our modem lineup on features. Here's a handy chart our engineers came up with based on the analysis they did over the weekend.

Just can't shake the feeling that we have a government by completely random proclamation right now. No Congress, no courts. If Elon tweets "y'all gotta wear green hats" then we all have to wear green hats.

Just checking. Elon is king now and can do whatever he wants, right? I read that a judge told his guys to get out of the Treasury but there's zero reason or mechanism to make him comply, right?

I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons

The media now has to cover everything the President says as if it's an absolutely well thought through policy idea he intends to totally implement. It's surreal.

Until I see someone in Congress take any actual effective action against this, I will assume they all at least vaguely support this. They must be so relieved to not have to make any decisions any more, to have it all done for them now.
