Free idea: the Monday after the time change

Why was I invited to Beast Studios? YouTube video by Folding Ideas

Folding Ideas just one of the best to do it. This is fascinating, and I can honestly say I went in expecting it would be too meta to be of interest to me. No! A cool look into a weird little (huge) world.

[reading a book in first person] i dont remember doing any of this

The GG1 WTYP ep legitimately got me into old trains. Just put that on all the radio stations

People think that what Wall Street guys fear is being in the market as it crashes, but the thing that's in all of their heads is the opposite - fear of missing out on the fast market rebound as Trump turns everything around, as many did in 2020 during Covid.

Map of the US titled “Danger Presented by Indiana” which shows danger increasing with proximity to Indiana, with levels from “illusion of safety” to “invasion at any time”

Are the books worth reading if I’m up to date on the show? I’ve really enjoyed it so far

“In England, 100 miles is far. In America, 100 years is old”

"Focusing on deaths per mile driven is like trying to reduce the number of cancer deaths per cigarette smoked"

If you have time you should really check out the Indiana-side trails west of the Big Four. Best in the region

“Crying man with gun” meme with text “when the war on cars happens and I have to ban the tiny van”

Also the kei trucks

New meta-analysis of 26 published studies concludes that AVs will lead people to use cars a lot more — which would thicken congestion and worsen pollution (even if AVs are electric).

"AV deployment is anticipated to lead to an overall increase in Vehicle Miles Traveled."

“Left ear right ear” meme where right ear is “November Kelly podcast” and left ear is “another November Kelly podcast”

It’s the only way to keep up

You’re about to have such a good time

It’s called ‘vs code’ because the code is an enemy you are fighting

In 2350 will Holden’s family be considered woke (polycule) or trad (Montanan farmers)?

5 years is a long deal for a 3B if they think Shaw will improve. Seems like the plan is to deal Hoerner or Shaw at some point

I know people on this website are likely to be more amenable to this than I am, but I want to stress that institutional investor purchases of single family homes are a microscopic share of the market and so you’re basically not gonna see material changes in home prices from this

We Still Don’t Know if Robotaxis Are Safer Than Human Drivers And even if self-driving technology proves to be less dangerous, there are many better ways to improve traffic safety and prevent fatal crashes.

Sorry, but triumphant claims about autonomous vehicle safety are wildly exaggerated.

And if reducing crashes is the goal, that isn’t even the right question.

My deep dive, in Bloomberg 🧵

Crazy that this works. Feels like a glitch

there's no such thing as a "heritage american" and brain-damaged constitutional law professors and members of the vox cinematic universe treating it with respect is bad, and they should be berated

borders are fake, and america is what it is in the best sense due to periodically recognizing that

This has been common knowledge since cars were introduced. Disney made a short about it in 1950!

Agree that you probably couldn’t do it all at once. The highest speed limit in the US is 85 (80 if you ignore TX). Why can any US car exceed that speed? I’d start there

This was part of the IIJA! It was (is?) supposed to go into effect next year

again, ignition interlocks are one of those things where there basically *really is* a technological solution to the problem that greatly mitigates that tradeoffs, and it's a policy failure that they aren't mandatory for five years after your first DUI.

Everybody’s talking about the CBA but the real top issue facing MLB is every team wearing the same three colors

Trump Wants Asia’s ‘Cute’ Kei Cars to be Made and Sold in US President Donald Trump, apparently enamored by the pint-size kei cars he saw during his recent trip to Japan, has paved the way for them to be made and sold in the US, despite concerns they’re too sma...

Here's hoping they'll seize it.
