@TechCrunch I love the hyperbole, "“For all of human history, it’s been: you buy a lidar sensor, you buy a camera." We're talking technology that traces back to the 1960s.

@verge Was it an accident (something that cannot be reasonably foreseen or predicted and cannot be avoided) or a crash (one of the drivers made a mistake)?

@latimes Regarding "...too many owners don't bother to plug them in." This study was from the EU and specified, "many PHEVs, especially company cars, are rarely, if ever charged." In my experience most PHEV owners in the US do plug in for cheaper electricity.

@washingtonpost @LReily Not all "food miles" are the same. It is well established that bulk transport of food by truck and rail is quite efficient. The longest food mile is when consumers drive to pick up food in their 4,000 lb passenger vehicles https://t.co/QsKcpkHRVt

@washingtonpost @lreily, the "locavore movement" might provide fresh veggies for some, especially those who live where there are long growing seasons, like CA. For many others it would mean no fresh foods for most of the year - and urban farms won't produce staples such as grains, tofu, beans.

@DrSethMurray Did you post this on LinkedIn, Seth? I think it would generate an interesting discussion.

@Abhmin @mikiebarb @apoorva_nyc A desire for narrative continuity makes sense. Although, I recall a fixation on gloves and surfaces in one of the early pandemic episodes that seemed more Ebola than respiratory virus even then.

[OregonER @oregoner]

@mikiebarb @apoorva_nyc It's great to hear authoritative science reporting from a new voice and an actual scientist.
