@BolsasDeLeche @mattyglesias An egg producer making huge profits because the competitions birds died from bird flu is not price rigging it is precisely what you'd expect from normal supply and demand pricing.

@mattranalletta @LinkofSunshine Eh there's no way the second avenue subway will take a literal century before it's built and not be as good.

@MikeTalonNYC @DJSnM The point is that the heat energy to dissipate is proportional to the amount of solar panels. That's always going to be true. If the solar panels are 10x bigger than the radiators here, then that's going to be pretty much true for any satellite that uses solar to power computers.

@Rheiji1 @ArmandDoma Yglesias specifically mentions the need to take methane leaks more seriously, which if done can reduce the leaks enormously as seen in Norway.

@bhaumikgowande Copenhagen isn't all that large yet they could absolutely use some skyscrapers and they pay a hefty price to avoid them imo. Like... what's wrong with tall buildings? They let you make better use of valuable land.

@DamirWallener @bryancsk The US has fewer elevators than Spain:

@AlexRMcColl @UrbanCourtyard I found an article saying the top floor units sold for $25k per square meter. Most expensive unit sold for $4 million and the cheapest for $400k.

@mnolangray In Sweden if you get caught driving above the limit they take your license for 12 months instantly and tow your car. You might be allowed to drive if you get an alcohol interlock installed. And California's legal limit is four times higher than the Swedish one.

@LinkofSunshine Pack it with skyscrapers until that seems reasonable.

@C_Harwick @Noahpinion A big difference is that India has 5x the US's population.

@Tesla_Dawg @Hilbe Why would we be satisfied by human standards of driving? Literally millions of people get killed by human drivers. The price of those other sensors have dropped like a rock, as things do once they start being mass produced so it's a big benefit for not much money.

@badguy974 @mattyglesias @DrDiGiorgio @ezraklein @ArmandDoma If you were literate you'd notice that the post you just responded to says it's to repeal the regulations that hinder the opening of new hospitals.

@the_transit_guy I mean are they needed right now or are they just built because of parking minimums?

[Victor Johansson 🌐 @Vectoor]

@cornoisseur @mpopv The day they compete with caltrain on price on that route (if their costs ever get that low), the road would presumably be clogged completely. I hope cities become more receptive to congestion charges when the streets are dominated by self driving cars.

[Victor Johansson 🌐 @Vectoor]

@Tesla_Dawg @Hilbe Is anyone trying drive by Lidar only?

@solarizid @YIMBYLAND A small elevator is a lot better than no elevator.

[Victor Johansson 🌐 @Vectoor]

@jenzhuscott All the energy that is radiated away comes from the solar panels. Since GPU's run at higher temperatures than people and the heat radiated scales by T^4 the ratio of radiators to solar panels will be better for GPU's. So you would need much less radiator area than solar panels.

@AyendeChand @mattyglesias What's the point if you don't have some big temporary influx of money like from oil.

[Victor Johansson 🌐 @Vectoor]

@DylanSinn @mattyglesias @janecoaston He made one joke about it.
