    Vicki, don’t give the MIT faculty more credit than they deserve - this is led by three PhD students! The CS faculty aren’t incentivized to make this content at all :).

    TIL a great word for all the activity that happens around programming before you can actually get to writing code, "metaprogramming."

    Voters: “All we need are paper ballots and time to count them.” Democratic consultants: “No, use this very complicated and unreliable app.” City residents: “All we need are bus lanes and safe streets for cycling.” Democratic mayors: “No, I’ve signed a contract for a Hyperloop."

    I call this a cul-de-trac. You can drop it in the middle of any neighborhood street for instant traffic calming, bike safety, and community space, while preserving vehicular access.

    I really hope that one day: - every one in the country votes in primaries on the same day - the actual day of voting is a holiday (or the weekend) - everyone has a system that is some variation of "ranked-choice" voting

    This analogy points in exactly the wrong direction: Excel is important, improvable, and a subject for CS research.

    I'm a type theorist. Bertrand Russell taught us how to be angry at angry people without being the same as them.

    Yea, the three steps of quantitative self-deception: 1. Recognize unmeasurable thing that matters 2. Make up an arguably related quantitative measurement 3. Label the measurement as though it measures thing in step 3 (4. Optional, optimize for the metric, aka dysfunction)

    Wuhan coronavirus is no more deadly or aggressive than pandemic flu was in the early 20th Century. The reason we don't fear the flu the same way is because we know how to make vaccines for it now. If coronavirus scares you, not getting the flu shot should scare you more.

    Just a reminder that measels is deadlier than Wuhan coronavirus, spreads more aggressively, and erases your existing antibodies, making it more likely you'll later die of the flu or pneumonia even if you survive. Only herd immunity protects us. Please vaccinate your children.

    Almost double the HP of something useful... "The John Deere S790 Combine is the biggest and most powerful in the lineup, putting out an incredible 543 horsepower. It has a 13.5-liter engine and a grain tank size of 400 bushels."

    Coincidentally, this is the last thing pedestrians and cyclists will see when they’re run over by a new Hummer.

    Lyrics lately... 2014: "This is the time that we let it go / These are the words that will take us home / Singing the song that's inside us all" 2019: "All they wanted was violence / To plant their seeds and divide us / ... they want the worst that's inside us"

    We expect ridership to blow away estimates at stations like Ballard and U-District, just as they have at Capitol Hill. We’re concerned about the anti-urban trend in these projections that have real world implications. Capitol Hill station was under built based on them.
