Not only was it not "required," nearly 30% of the state of California remains short of full vaccination and restrictions are dropping daily. You can demand an end to "mandates" and public health emergencies, but you…
Extremely typical. There are cases where the highest paid employee in an entire _state_ is an athletics coach at a state university.
I am confused as to why "repair the thing before it catastrophically fails" is not the best of the available options. Decommissioning a facility like this is a loss for science globally, even if there are alternatives…
Spend time with your neighbors and local businesses. That goes a long way. Learn more about what works well in the city, and what doesn't. Consider serving in a volunteer capacity with various organizations like local…
There are many issues. Perhaps the most obvious is that parents cannot teach their children and work simultaneously, while children accustomed to the classroom setting are unable to focus on a task independently at…
I don't think the implication is that "fully/100% remote" is inherently good, but that it is an important quality to a population. For example, I only seek fully remote work, so knowing that a position is 100% remote is…
This is the Nanit monitor with the Breathing Wear band. The cost is significant - $300 for the monitor, $20+ for the band, and an annual fee after the first year. With that said, an IP-enabled monitor lets you do things…
We use a baby monitor in conjunction with specifically patterned clothing. The monitor observes the pattern and assesses whether the baby is breathing - if not, it will alarm on both the phone and the crib monitor unit.…
Those in a position of relative power (e.g. airline employees) are not allowed to ask "what disease do you have that merits this animal?" but they are allowed to ask "what services does this animal provide?" There is a…
I understand that it's difficult to do correctly, but it has been done correctly in the past, on a few occasions (e.g. the scattered-site developments in Yonkers, NY). It just seems like we've completely given up, and…
Why don't we build public housing in the US anymore?
Where in LA is your LA office?
All of its residents.
Depends on the HOV lane. The Fastrak lanes on the 110 south of downtown are regularly moving at 45+ mph, regardless of the state of the other lanes. There are two HOV lanes each direction, often separated by grade.
Sure, but the freight companies own the track, so they prioritize their own trains.
I have not yet lived in a metro area in the United States where traffic is not bad, particularly at rush hours. Try getting from Boston to Cambridge any time outside the early morning hours. Or Seattle to Tukwila.
Even if they had the power, or will, governments in ostensibly free nations shouldn't be forcing their population into a form of transport, just as they shouldn't be forcing their population into specific jobs, specific…
Got it. It may be an indicator. I do also think that one of the obligations of any large public project is to ensure that it reflects the public - art is a good way to do this.
For what it's worth, art does not typically contribute meaningfully to cost. In Boston, a budgeted $2 billion dollar expansion of the Green Line is now projected to cost nearly $3 billion, and the response from the MBTA…
The colors are bad for this visualization, but were chosen because the Los Angeles Lakers wear those colors, and Bryant spent his entire career with the team.
My favorite part of their anti-adblocker approach was when I actually disabled my blocker and ran into a hilarious "ad-light"[0] experience that was so ad-heavy I immediately gave up and found somewhere else to read an…
I agree that that is a puzzling statement. Perhaps the intent was to say something like "you can't reap marginal benefits from the replacement of a single signal since the whole system must be modernized to allow the…
Your conclusion is worrisome. Lots of people, and lots of groups of people, have been considered "violent criminals" despite being neither violent nor criminals. I can understand why worldwide empathy is a good thing…
That's the joke. Dade was utilizing social engineering to obtain information from a security guard. Realistic or not, it's a great example of how technology is never stronger than its weakest link, and often that link…
As a longtime (but not current) resident of Los Angeles, merely growing up in traffic very effectively desensitized me to the misery of long commute times. To the degree that the natives have factored in sunk time in…
