Depends on historical data and current codes, which keep being revised to improve structural stability. For older buildings, the three box sides may need some retrofit reinforcement.

Hilarious!

What's Politico's take on this? Rhetorical Q: How do regular American people benefit from massive deals like this? Answer: Not at all.

This type of phony come on reporting drives me nuts. The title pretends to say the "why" question will be explained, but only lays out the what. Where's the "why" reporting and analysis?

No worries darling, they're gonna block the sun, everything will be OK and nothing will stop the speculative research gravy train.

"MERITo-aristocracy" is itself another scam by the funders of their own relentless self-exaltation.

marvelous

Boys will be boys/girls are supposed to shut up

Nope, Witkoff is not the architect, he's Trump's tool, plucked from the shady business world and told to get instructions from Kirill Dmitriev to amplify Russian goals.

Both are happening. The nordic and baltic countries understand what's up, are seriously preparing. UK, France, Italy, and so on do a lot of dancing. Spain & Ireland don't even pretend, just plain stupid.

No, it's presumptuous. Speaking as an engineer myself, many engineering 'solutions' are narrowly effective (& profitable! the real goal) but cause problems elsewhere. The answer is in front of us but we don't like it b/c $. Stop pumping out GHGs and restore living environmental services systems.

It's a direct line from Obama's banker friendly regime to MAGA. (also from wealth disparity increase since Reagan, and from oligarch resistance TR progressive era & FDR to now, but people barely remember Obama's role, so why bother with the whole picture).

USA, since the beginning of Russia's invasion, I think, maybe 1st on Twit. I read Ukrainska Pravda, Kyiv Independent, New Voice Of Ukraine and Kyiv Post every morning. What am I missing? Sometimes ISW too. I'm interested in updates and insights.

This is ridiculous. Both quick and rolled oats are like eating paste. If you're gonna spend 30 minutes making toppings, cook your steel cut oats during the same 30 minutes. Voila! A transformative eating experience, because these are the only oats worth cooking and eating! 😋

Yes, absolutely. I’m just hoping we’re not devolving into potentate rule of ancient and not so ancient times. America itself is a very flawed beacon of what we can do.

Also, the prop 13 bite when we bought was huge relative to neighbors back then too. But now, retired on much lower income, it helps. People generally buy in relatively high earning years. The burden eases over time as pay rises with inflation, somewhat in time to absorb offspring college expenses.

Sprawl made it possible. Also there was intergenerational upward mobility from working class to middle class, enabling buying at peaks in expensive market (SF region since 1960). Upward mobility from middle class rare. Downward mobility normalizing since Regan era.

Clarification, Vance is saying he hates women via Mamdani pile on..
