This Yglesias piece in the NYT is horrifically bad. Almost every "fact" it cites is provably false. At best it is cocktail party banter from a pundit who knows nothing of energy. At worst, it was cut/paste from oil industry talking points. So, a rebuttal: www.nytimes.com/2025/12/18/o...

As I never tire of reminding people, the two plausible alternatives to automated traffic enforcement are that we either rely on the discretion of individual police officers or we simply don't enforce traffic laws at all. We have been trying both alternatives now and they are failing us.
See also: debates about speed cameras.
There's a problematic reflex among some progressive reformers to move from "conventional criminal legal responses are bad" to something too close to "accountability in general is bad."
I think (as Jamelle argues here) it's rooted in not thinking abt victims.

someone tell the California ACLU who is disproportionately more likely to be killed in traffic accidents including those involving people under the influence

A squad of 10 Imperial Scout Troopers painted up for stealth in the Endor jungle from #StarWarsLegion. I'll be running them in my #OPR army as Human Defense Force Veterans like my Stormtroopers #Nerdlings #minipainting

It's that time of year in #Denver where everyone forgets to shovel their sidewalk. If only we could just make this another function of the city to maintain its infrastructure like we do our roads.

Been dipping my toe into writing initial startup code for an nRF51 and wow is this header file barebones. You get register structs and macros for casting from the base address, but no fields or masking. STMicro sure has spoiled me! I ended up writing my own vector table struct even 😬

Anyone experience this issue with #Garmin sleep score where it thinks I slept for 32 hours? (but has the right time range though certainly not the right stages). I have a 3 year old Garmin Instinct 2. I've seen this happen about once per week for the last month

Poking around with embedded #Rust on the #Arduino Uno R4 Mínima tonight and observing something strange. I can flash a simple sketch from Arduino IDE just fine and I can grab the command it's running with dfu-util and run that separately in a shell. But if I try to use the binary from my

Managed to get a Catalan copy of Mistborn book 1 and my brain is fried after 4 pages. Probably should've picked something easier but this is the hockey stick part of language learning I guess 😅

In 2023, we won the Build Public Renewables Act — a groundbreaking law empowering NYS to speed up the clean energy transition and lower your bills with publicly-owned power.
Today is the deadline to tell the New York Power Authority that we need a plan for 15 GW by 2030. Take urgent action below.

Boost 1.73 (released April 2020!) not properly supporting C++17 has been killing me today. Seems to get papered over by gcc not removing things from the standard library that were supposed to be but clang being more strict.
