Yeah, I'm not saying it's not possible! I'm just genuinely trying to conceptualize what step 2 is.
One of the most distressing things T has taught me is that so much of what I think of as "law" is really just convention, and as a result I think a lot more about mechanics of enforcement now.
Interesting. Maybe a histrionic reaction, but it feels like this might quickly reduce down to the question of "who does the military side with".
Separately, one wonders if this runs into Presentment Clause issues.
At a very practical level what would happen after a declaration by Congress that 14AS3 applied? What would enforcement look like? I don't know law well, but it's hard for me to see the concrete steps of how you get from that declaration by Congress to someone else (presumably Vance?) being president
This would absolutely revolutionize bike tourism. I’ve done multiple self-guided bike trips, and 90% of what you’re paying for is luggage transport.
Oh sorry I missed that crucial piece. Ok that does rule. Wow
There are a few apps that let you do this in any city at bodegas. We used LuggageHero to do so in Valencia, Spain, and it looks like they have locations in NYC (haven’t checked the other cities).
Screenshot from FCC faq supporting the assertion in the post.
The faq on the FCC site says that previously approved routers aren’t impacted, but new models are impacted, which seems very weird from a policy perspective. Surely older models can be just as compromised as newer models?

Long line of people waiting at JFK precheck
I flew out of T4 Sunday night. Vanilla precheck looked pretty annoying (my uninformed guess was >30m), but touchless was 5 people. I was completely through security in like 7m. Make sure you have opted in to touchless on airline’s site/app.

(To be clear my anecdote should not trump science, and I’m fine with regulating chiropractic out of existence.)
I believe all the science on why chiropractic isn’t medicine, and also: I had weird back pain & my doctor recommended one particular chiropractor he said was the one who wasn’t bs in his experience. Went to her and she fixed it in one visit. Never went back. Was surreal, maybe placebo, but ok by me.
I think my verdict would be: the NYT reporter used the phrase in the most commonly understood way AND that the phrase should be avoided because it’s mildly confusing for some non-trivial portion of people.
I didn’t know this until this thread, but this phrase is evidently a legitimate and ongoing confusion in English!

Three, IIRC.
(To be clear, I don’t think most people just getting a flu shot are doing a rational calculus. Access and misinformation are almost certainly more important here.)
I got both but I did consider just getting flu shot. I usually have a mild fever from COVID shots and actually getting COVID has always been very, very,very mild for me, so the tradeoff isn’t totally clear. Flu shot, on the other hand, has no side effects for me, so it’s a no brainer.
100% of the current housing on the lot is affordable. Just makes sense not to lower that percentage when negotiating with developers.
/sarcasm
It’s just a wild, fact-free assertion. Lorimer & Grand and Domino Square filled up SO fast, judging by lights and furniture you can see from the windows.
It seems like the uncertainty was very high until the last 12 hours. When I went to bed there was still like a 30% chance of <2 inches
matcha is bad, actually
I’ve been looking for details on what this proposal is concretely, whether it’s 9.5% across the board or targeted more at certain property types, and I can’t find any info.
I’m not a Lego guy, but I have the previous container ship kit from like a decade ago, and honestly: amazing purchase. 10s across the board, no notes.
You feel attacked? This previous container ship kit is LITERALLY on my bookshelf right now. www.lego.com/en-us/produc...
I think they did in this case? Called it “racist content” and “blatantly racist”.
It feels like we are relying on a patchwork of literally millions of private individuals to provide a public good, with predictable results.
I think there are a lot of objections to have about him, but I think you’re missing the context that he often posts jokey things like this in a straight-faced way. His point here is that Dems should denounce “welfare” while beefing up welfare.
Polgreen is literally saying here that the finesse would be in service of a terrible decision. Her point is that Weiss is doing something bad by spiking the story, and ALSO that she is doing it in a clumsy way. Of course the finessed version wouldn't be in the public interest!
I think what I learned from the 2024 election is that wage growth exceeding inflation is not good enough for voters. People just really, really hate prices going up, even when on average their wages are going up by more.
So I believe the bottom line is that this article is claiming that it costs 7.6c/kWh to generate all-day solar, inclusive of all operating costs and capital costs amortized over the lifetime of the facility.
I believe it includes the capital & operating costs over the lifetime of the facility, & since batteries only need to be used for ~half the day’s energy, it only adds battery cost for about half the energy. The article says that generation + storage is ~$76/MWh, again inclusive of capital costs.
Oh yeah, dependent care FSAs have totally different rules, which is very cool and fun.
