It won’t happen but a lame duck impeachment powered by jilted republicans would be hilarious, and not without merit

It’s frankly amazing how many people will cycle in paint only lanes as long as you slow traffic below 30mph. I never would’ve believed

Thousand-year-old decadent orange emperor that destroys the universe's sole source of transport fuel in pursuit of a new paradigm where it's no longer necessary. Leto II Atreides, or Donald John Trump?

If we’re honest with ourselves about who we are as a country, the reality is this goes back far further than Iran-Contra, or Watergate & Cambodia, all the way to U.S. Grant’s original sin of exonerating the racist traitors, Robert Edward Lee & co., at Appomattox in 1865 From Ron Chernow’s “Grant”:

Probably my most car brained decision was buying an EV in 2016 because I remembered how much economizing on driving during 2008 impacted my quality of life due to car dependency

Even Volvo’s system kind of sucks at this. I wish it weren’t the case but “car that cannot speed” is actually a lot harder problem than I initially would’ve thought

what is 'Latent Space' and how do LLMs get answers from it? The Jargon can be confusing, but the exaplanation is actually relatively simple: It is Hell. The Machine is getting knowledge from demons.

As much as I like to see more headwinds for the Trump project, isn’t this energy shock precisely the kind of transient thing policy makers are supposed to look through? Like once the straight is open we could go back to a glut of oil

It’s definitely a lot more satisfying to have AI do something I already know how to do but at a scale I don’t have time for than to have it do something I don’t already understand I just did a Gaussian splat of my apartment and it looks ok but I feel like I didn’t really learn anything

2 weeks in Switzerland and while the bike infrastructure really doesn’t look like much but the low speed limits in town and tons of traffic calming makes it not particularly stressful to bike

Slavoj Žižek has my dream job. I watched him speak in front of a crowd for 45 minutes uninterrupted about whatever he felt like while the host watched helplessly. when he finally finished she said "wise words" and he said "I HATE WISDOM" then started talking again

Noticing in Switzerland there’s an overwhelming preference for bike trailers over cargo bikes. I don’t think it’s a cost thing because in Belgium I see the opposite
