If Tesla makes a car with 3 rows of seats, each with its own pair of doors so nobody has to climb over anybody else to get to their seat, they will create a baby boom the likes of which we haven’t seen in 80 years
The US fell behind because the FAA blocked consumer drones.

The wrong way for the elite universities to dig themselves out their reputational hole: restrict speech even more. Instead:
1. Clear & coherent free speech policy.
2. Institutional neutrality: Universities are forums, not protagonists.
3. Force prohibited: No more heckler's vetoes, building takeovers, classroom invasions, intimidations, blockades, assaults.
4. Disempower DEI bureaucrats, responsible to no one, who have turned campuses into laughingstocks.
5. Viewpoint diversity: Discourage political & intellectual monocultures (including hard-left/PoMo/"intersectional").

Stripe Treasury should launch a feature to spread assets across FDIC banks.
Charge for the liquidity management.
Automate the cash movement.
Not easy, but most of the infrastructure is already built.
It’s absolutely stupid that if you have $2.5M the government insures $250k of your money if you keep it at one bank, but insures all of it if you keep it at ten banks
Roundabouts get you an 86% reduction in the rate of fatal crashes, but some weirdos at a public hearing said they're confusing, so who's to say what's right?
worst part abt the EU as a ‘regulatory superpower’ is that they really don’t seem very good at legal innovation. their environmental policy is a tour de force in doing nothing while pretending to do everything
