Hmmm seems like you're forgetting or don't know about the handful of tunnels that go under the main drive or about the 10 miles of trails that weave through the park.

Siena Poll: Support for Congestion Pricing Keeps Rising - Streetsblog New York City "Are we out of the Valley of Death yet?"

"Voters in Stockholm and London both initially opposed congestion pricing before and as the toll was introduced. But as the benefits of less traffic became immediately apparent, support for the toll shot up in both cities."

ONE MORE TIME FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK.
THEY ARE NOT INTERESTED IN MAKING THE GOVT EFFICIENT.
THEY ARE INTERESTED IN MAKING IT EVEN SHITTIER.
SO YOU DON'T LIKE IT. AND GET MAD.
AND THEN THEY PRIVATIZE IT.
SO THEIR BUDDIES GET MORE MONEY.

We're not done yet | 18F

18F was doing exactly the type of work that DOGE claims to want – yet we were eliminated shortly after midnight. Read our letter to the American people:

my "optimistic" take is "it's not that deep" and so much of affluent white America don't consider any lives beyond their own suburban bubble. so... they are either single issue voters influenced by propaganda or they balk at their grocery bill going up (and are not willing to change their habits)

TypeScript types can run DOOM
YouTube video by Michigan TypeScript TypeScript types can run DOOM

For all my programmer friends and followers, you will likely enjoy this unhinged video of a guy running Doom purely with the TypeScript type system youtu.be/0mCsluv5FXA?...

I started learning Elixir while at @recursecenter.bsky.social this Fall! That talk from Sasa Juric was pretty mind blowing for me, too. This is a nice pathway you've laid out!

certainly not a trumper but I think we'd be kidding ourselves if we didn't admit that he IS one of the most successful social media influencers in history... just may not overlap the social media this bubble sees. Boomer FB, reddit, the chans, etc...

While Amazon Workers Strike for Better Conditions, the NYPD Strikes Back At day one of the Amazon Teamsters strike at the company's DBK4 delivery center in Queens, the NYPD did their jobs (protecting Amazon).

"I watched the movie 'Harlan County, USA' last night, and it was the same stuff going on back then. It's the same old story, and eventually you just have to go in and fight for what's right, regardless of the consequences."

Scenes from day one of the Amazon strike!
