Absolutely. Walking and cycling in LA is hell because it's so fucking how. The heat is mainly because of the streets not LA.

Other SoCal cities are way nicer to walk in

I'm wondering if this is a common-law issue or poor insurance culture or corruption.

Notably Europe generally has a top notch insurance culture. And civil law + insurance might reduce lawsuits.

That said, look at Latvia and railbaltica. It's a shitshow, so maybe corruption.

But AI will fix it though!!!! /s

Honestly, AI is a very cool technology. I work it in and I love it, but it's amazingly disappointing that instead of building models up fold proteins and advance humanity, we built propaganda bots, surveillance and people outsource their intelligence.

And we could have invested heavily into more efficient competing, but instead we just burn the world.

500 is way too low. They are blocking critical infrastructure. Should be a 1% of pre-tax monthly income per minute imo

I largely agree. WaPo is now well known among journalists for it's downfall (family connections to journalism). Bezos basically purposefully destroyed it.

NYT I'm not outright disagreeing or agreeing. I just don't have insider information suggesting one way or the other.

I'm probably unaware. Could you explain how the NYT quality has declined?

Is this a good thing? If they store their goods in Poland, then the EU could inspect them right?

Federal taxes are paid directly by businesses. There's no mechanism for a state up stop paying

I don't get why cities can't just use a standard app. Every city needs it. Just make one and open source it

I'm really concerned about people trying to harm this cute little drones. What kind of attacks should I watch out for? I would love to know the specific brands and types of tools these heinous drone murderers would use so I can stop them.

Please don't trust Shell with hydrogen. They purposefully killed their hydrogen org a couple years ago. I was working with them and watched the methodical cutting.

Their AI model that detects misinformation is pretty cool
