Silicon Valley's Push Into Transportation Has Been a Miserable Failure The titans of tech brought plenty of disruption to our broken transportation system but delivered little in the way of innovation.

“Elon Musk admitted to his biographer that the reason the Hyperloop was announced—even though he had no intention of pursuing it—was to try to disrupt the California high-speed rail project to get in the way of that actually succeeding.” — @parismarx.com in @gizmodo.com

Indoctrination is “the process of teaching a person or group to accept a set of beliefs UNCRITICALLY”.

too bad twitter died. i miss the good times there.

Hi everyone if you’re wondering why there are no #axschat questions it’s because we have taken the decision to stop doing the weekly Q&A chat as there was not the level of engagement to justify the effort of preparing and running it week in week out. We will continue the podcasts as normal.

bummer :(

a4 i hate asking for help. so if it happens needs tto be in my terns. i hate relying on others or sharing personal details #autchat

a3 i escape to my own world. if people ask why i need some accommodations… it’s frustrating having to drag medical history and always explaining vision issues when i just want to pass #autchat

a2 if there’s a need for specific help and chance to get it w/o misinterpretations i might consider asking. generally doing everything self though. #autchat
