Some days you're the hammer, some days you're the nail. Be the carpenter.

@Cyclocosm This was our entire strategy in collegiate cycling in the days before ubiquitous video cameras at the finish line.

@GreenScrubs1177 @cptm_n3m0 Sure! I think you can make a copy without any permissions, but if that doesn’t work, request viewer access on Google and I’ll grant it. Then you can definitely make a copy.

Went for my first Tesla FSD beta ride this morning, with @slavonia at the wheel in heavy downtown SF driving. 10 min drive w 3 interventions necessary. It did a v good job of perceiving and anticipating pedestrians around us, but the interventions were all other-vehicle related.

@ryantomorrow I'm just glad I was there to see it.

@AMTetrick How about “A Voyage for Madmen”, about the 1968 solo nonstop round-the-world yacht race?

@mlroach So your grandparents must be stoked!

@lauren1717 @thedirtfield Most of these, with the exception of some Rapha rides, are early morning, and none of them are really downtown but SF isn't that big. It's 4 miles to the GG bridge and 3 miles to Golden Gate Park.

[Mark Slavonia @slavonia]

@lauren1717 @thedirtfield here's a quick summary - Roasters, 8:00 am Saturday, south side of GG Bridge. Fatcake, MTTh a.m., check out https://t.co/B7KcEUpHs7. Rapha has rides, and my club, the SFCC, has our legendary Friday morning Coffee Ride, 6:15 am at Fell and Baker.

[Mark Slavonia @slavonia]

@lauren1717 @thedirtfield Oh hey Lindsay Goldman, friend of @lauren1717m. Yes, there are lots of group rides in San Francisco. Most meet at the Golden Gate Bridge and go north into Marin, a few weekday morning meetups stay in the city. DM and I'll send a list.

I didn’t write this edition of @WhyInteresting about a very special Bay Area gas station but I wish I had. It’s great.

@matt_levine Hi Matt - is this still the way to subscribe? I tried to subscribe on May 19 but instead of getting the newsletter by email, Bloomberg sends me an email with a link to the newsletter, which is behind an article-limited paywall, not the newsletter itself.

@mlroach It's like they learned nothing from the live squid giveaway debacle.

[Mark Slavonia @slavonia]

@ryantomorrow How about “Three is a Magic Number”? Go with the Bob Dorough/Schoolhouse Rock version.
