@BigJimHit @willpoffwebster Please show me a single piece of evidence that even suggests this

[Ale @backpropdrop]

@aarmlovi Lurie lobbied against sb79?? Please provide source. Also sf family zoning plan was the most upzoning he was gonna get with nimbys still on the sf bos. The mayor of nyc was significantly more power than sf mayor, who’s almost every decision needs to be approved by sf bos

[Ale @backpropdrop]

@be_well_2_all @SFist @SFMTA_Muni @Waymo Waymo most definitely takes part of the blame, however to say it’s not sfmta fault is just being dishonest. There weren’t nearly enough buses and there was zero traffic management, two areas that fall squarely in sfmta domain.

[Ale @backpropdrop]

@SFMTA_Muni Why the fuck do you close Chinatown train to Powell bart if Bart ends service at 1am🖕🖕

[Ale @backpropdrop]

@DanielLurie @sfmta

You can’t tell the public to take transit for July 4th fireworks, IF THE TRANSIT DOESNT FUCKING WORK

SF can’t even provide basic transportation to its people, that’s why you’ll always lack legitimacy 😒

[Ale @backpropdrop]

@MagicalV31610 Yeah but how do we feel about Lahore though?!?!?!

[Tesla @Tesla]

You don’t have to drive anymore

[Ale @backpropdrop]

@sracha Whenever you are using ridesharing to get home, especially late at night, compare prices across uber, Lyft, robotaxi and Waymo

There are times late at night when Lyft or robotaxi are by far the cheapest option

[Ale @backpropdrop]

@adcock_brett Why can’t you let it run until it fails??

[Ale @backpropdrop]

@smokebids @BrianAtlas You find a lot of wonderful women at bars, a lot of whom actually want to be approached, especially in cities like new york

What you’re describing sounds like a something you’d encounter in a small town/Deep South.

[Austen Allred @Austen]

Ok so you were completely wrong.

Does that change your opinion?

Probably not

[Ale @backpropdrop]

@sam_d_1995 I think it’s still way to early to claim Mandan/Hocul wins at the Local/State level, what’s the median rent of a 1 bedroom in Queens?

[Ale @backpropdrop]

@shekador @pitdesi Data is flawed & incomplete in what ways exactly?? Pls elaborate

I think a more useful perspective to have is that our current tech stack/capabilities is already having a net positive real world impact that is already worth scaling across society, making roads safer for all

[Ale @backpropdrop]

@shekador @pitdesi Waymo is already 13x safer than human drivers in the cities they operate in

@kittygang_4ever @pitdesi Why are you against automation that not only keeps people safe on roads and highways, but also lowers the cost of land transport??

[Ale @backpropdrop]

We want a world like this because in our current world, over 40,000 people die on US roads and highways every year because humans are bad drivers.

Automating driving will not only make sure less people die trying to get somewhere, but will also lower the cost of land transport.

[BoycottTesla @dsdlandscapes]

@pitdesi Why do we want a world like this?

I like people. Driving. Greeting. Working.

[Ale @backpropdrop]

@bihanmahadewa It’s okay bro, you can say you don’t like seeing poor people😭

[Ale @backpropdrop]

@Jensen_Leroy94 @axios You see, I always see this argument online, that these studies are fraudulent.

Any advice that might suggest that this is the case??

[Ale @backpropdrop]

@StatisticUrban @YIMBYLAND Please present it because I do not think there is one.

Fares are the only mechanism preventing transit from being destroyed by drug addicts.

[Ale @backpropdrop]

@HeLLaTaLL510 Wait are you talking about ai? How is ai literally destroying all life on earth??
