We need to stop pairing unrelated infrastructure upgrades with transit projects because everyone blames the transit project for construction even though 90% of the work is for a sewer replacement and then it makes future transit projects harder share.google/dr9blW4oQuZ3...

After controversial Muni upgrade, bus crashes have dropped significantly

Bus crashes are down 40% on the busy SF corridor.

a key thing about vought — and all of these guys — is that they have a totally top down and hierarchical vision of the world. they believe that the cultural changes they hate can be turned off by destroying the federal government because they can’t imagine that they emerged bottom-up in society

What he’s railing against is a profound shift in culture, status… He’s obsessed with the idea that America is controlled by a leftist “ruling elite” - but “elite” isn’t defined socio-economically or by political power, it means something like: Getting to define “real America” and who gets to belong.

If you insist on ending tie games earlier the following are all better ideas than the free runner on second:

- ending game in tie after 12
- runners left on base return for next inning
- teams have to pull a fielder every inning after 10 or 12

For some context the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly report in addition to being just a good read, to quote wikipedia, "is the main vehicle for publishing public health information and recommendations that have been received by the CDC from state health departments. "

You could electrify 4.5 Caltrains for the cost of this $11B eight lane highway through the wetlands that is currently a two lane road

Warren Wells, AICP @warrenjwells.bsky.social · 5d

Caltrans has released a cross section for the ultimate (raised viaduct) version of SR-37.

Now maybe I'm just being paranoid, but if you were building a road that you planned to keep at 4 lanes wide, I don't think it would look like this.

Cross section of 114' wide bridge structure with each direction having a 12' outside shoulder and a 10' inside shoulder.
