We get lots of questions about where we'll be adding new bike lanes or which ones will be enhanced. Visit https://t.co/4V1sUeuhRV to see the full list of 2026 bikeways projects. Check if a street near you will get new or upgraded bike features! @bikesv
Your city is letting thousands of pounds of trash wash straight into rivers and bays every year.
Cigarette butts, plastic bottles, wrappers, everything you see littering the street flows untreated through storm drains.
Australia found a dead-simple fix.
The city of Kwinana installed cheap mesh nets over drainage outlets. In the first six months, two nets caught 370 kg of trash.
Six years later, they’ve captured over 3,660 kg.
Melbourne scaled it up even further: 120 litter traps caught 3,468 kg in just six months.
The nets are inexpensive, easy to empty, and the trash gets sorted, recycled, or composted.
Prevention costs a fraction of beach and river cleanups after the fact.
So… why isn’t your city doing this?
We just got this Force Majeure letter today from AirGas, our helium supplier (for our food science lab, where we have multiple mass-spec instruments that use helium).
The letter says that helium supplies are cut off, and if you're lucky, you might be allotted HALF the helium you need. Even then, you will be charged extra for any helium you get. A LOT extra.
So basically, every mass spec lab in America is about to go offline. AirGas is expressly invoking FM and saying they cannot meet their contractual obligations. Not their fault. Trump did this by attacking Iran.
My lab is fine, of course, because I saw this coming and I ordered my lab staff to buy a one-year supply weeks ago. We already have it in place. So we're still up and running with plenty of helium.
But very few lab science people are paying attention to the Strait of Hormuz, so they are getting blindsided by this.
Trump's war is shutting down science labs all across the country right now. Don't dare call this "winning." It's a loss for America. And the world.
JUST IN: 🇮🇷 🇺🇸 Six suspected insiders made $1.2M betting on a US strike on Iran
Most of these wallets:
• were funded in the last 24h
• specifically bet for February 28
• bought "yes" hours before the strike
@EelcoKeij Is er een website waar je met behulp van je kiezerspas nummer kan nagaan of je stem idd is geteld? Dat doe ik met mijn lokale verkiezingen ook (in Californië alles sinds COVID per brief).
It’s astonishing to me that Dave Kaval is teaching courses at Stanford in Sports Business Management. Is NO ONE aware of what’s been going on with the #Athletics for years now?How is any of this good sports business management?
Oh, hey, Stanford might want to update his bio
@serenity67@fieldofschemes can it get any crazier !? The same @stanford where renowned (emeritus) Economist Roger Noll taught ? https://t.co/mW8wFe9pOd

@twostraws@rmondello Whenever you enter your password in the Tesla app it doesn’t prompt to save to keychain. When you instead log into Tesla on safari and were prompted to save, the you can use the saved password from the keychain when you try to log into the app! Weird
“Currently about 2/3rds of all Dutch children walk or bike to school, with 75% of secondary school kids cycling to school. By enabling safe and active travel, Dutch cities prevent an estimated one million car journeys to school each morning.” — @modacitylife in #CurbingTraffic
