The rise of the suburbs and the decline of downtown as a residential space was not due to cars, zoning, or race riots. It preceded all those by several decades. The reason is more mundane: downtown land values increased because businesses discovered agglomeration benefits

I don’t get this. The following tab is just normal chronological Twitter and the other one is algorithmic. How is this confusing to anyone who has used social media?
Quote Tweet
It’s increasingly difficult to use Twitter to find out what’s going on. The “following” tab is something boring someone just tweeted, the “for you” tab is some prompt tweet, a screenshot of a viral tiktok, or multiple tweets from the menswear guy. Not good! twitter.com/wsj/status/161…

Tired: let people build market rate housing
Wired: let people build affordable housing only

Our violent crime isn't actual abnormal compared to peer countries. but the proliferation of guns in the US makes violence more deadly which popularizes support for militarized police and public safety gets deadlocked as these two elements perpetuate each other.

Just a crazy energy powerhouse.

Got this email today. The best thing that came out of the Uber era is that there are a lot more cars available. But wow every year we slouch more toward the status quo ante customer experience. This is just hilariously tragic marketing.

Not sure this is a good idea but I do think the “sur” is a great name for a South American common currency.
I must apologize to Diamond and Silk.
I said it made no sense that Diamond was opposed to the vax but Silk then claimed she “died suddenly.”
Now I see they have a coherent theory that explains both. It was other vaccinated people that infected Diamond with the vax. Of course!
