Let me explain exactly why every new subdivision in America looks like the top photo, because the math is wild. A mature tree increases a home's value by 7 to 19 percent. On a $400,000 house, that's $28,000 to $76,000. A single shade tree produces the cooling equivalent of ten room-size air conditioners running 20 hours a day. One tree on the west side of a house cuts energy bills by 12 percent within 15 years. The bottom photo is worth more, costs less to live in, and sells faster. This has been documented by the University of Washington, Clemson, Michigan State, and the USDA. The data is not in dispute. Removing those trees saves the builder roughly $5,000 per lot. Concrete trucks need twice the dripline radius of every standing tree. Utility trenches need flat ground. A bulldozer flattens 200 lots in an afternoon. Preserving trees adds weeks and thousands per home. So the developer pockets $5,000 in savings and the buyer eats $50,000 in lost value for the next two decades. The person making the decision and the person paying for it have never been in the same room. The Woodlands, Texas is the proof of what happens when they are. George Mitchell bought 28,000 acres of Houston timberland in 1974 and preserved 28% as permanent green space. He forced McDonald's to build behind the tree canopy. That McDonald's became one of the highest-volume locations in Texas. The first office building, designed to reflect the surrounding forest so you couldn't see it from the street, leased completely. The Woodlands median home price today: $615,000. Katy, a comparable Houston suburb that clear-cut: $375,000. Named #1 community to live in America two years running. Fifty years of data. The trees are worth more than removing them saves. Developers clear-cut anyway because they sell the house once and leave. You live in it for 30 years.

The only way to revive the great American road trip is public transit. Interstate rail and inter/intra city trams. Additional lanes only attract more cars, they’ll NEVER reduce traffic. Incentivizing people en mass to travel on something other than the road will.
Federal Highway Admn@USDOTFHWA

From Florida to Maine, I-95 is the ultimate East Coast backbone, linking all 13 original colonies and more. 🚗💨 📍 1,906 miles from start to end. 🛣️ 59 BILLION miles traveled yearly. ☀️ Busiest section? Miami, with 321,000 daily drivers! #GreatAmericanRoadTrip #Interstate70th

@ScrimSuperior They think it’s “necessary” to completely flatten and desertify an area in order to build. “The heavy equipment needs to get through” and yadda yadda and they proceed to replant absolutely nothing but non indigenous turf grass

Vast is developing Control Moment Gyroscopes (CMGs) in-house to provide attitude control for Haven-1 and future stations. Our CMGs are air-cooled; we will test the cooling ducts in our full-scale life support testing module to verify nominal temperatures are maintained.

The bird claim is a myth that’s been circulating online since 2012. The real biology is better. Blaschko’s lines trace cell migration paths from embryonic development. A German dermatologist named Alfred Blaschko mapped them in 1901 by studying over 150 patients with skin conditions and tracing their patterns onto Greek statues in his Berlin office. The lines formed V-shapes on the back, S-curves on the chest, and whorls on the scalp. They didn’t match nerves, blood vessels, muscles, or any known body system. Nobody could explain what they were for 75 years. The “birds can see them” claim has no scientific support. IFLScience investigated it directly and found zero evidence that cats, birds, or any other animal can perceive these lines on normal human skin. The lines aren’t a UV-reflective pattern sitting on the surface. They’re a developmental map encoded in how your cells organized before you were born. The actual explanation is stranger than the myth. Every woman is a genetic mosaic. During early embryonic development, each female cell randomly shuts down one of its two X chromosomes: mom’s copy or dad’s copy. That choice is permanent for every future daughter cell. The result is two genetically distinct populations of skin cells living side by side across your entire body, each running different X-linked genetic instructions. There are 1,100 genes on the X chromosome alone. The borders between those two populations follow Blaschko’s lines. This is why calico cats are almost always female. Orange fur patch: mom’s X chromosome active. Black fur patch: dad’s X chromosome active. Two genetic programs painting the same animal. Same mechanism, visible result. In humans, the two cell populations usually produce near-identical outcomes, so the seams stay invisible. When a mutation hits one population, the boundary lights up along those exact developmental paths. Conditions like incontinentia pigmenti, segmental vitiligo, and linear psoriasis all trace Blaschko’s lines when they appear. You’re a quilt of genetically distinct territories. The seams were stitched during week two. No bird required.

Everyone has stripes known as Blaschko's lines. These are normally not visible and are generally only present if there's an issue, chimerism, etc. But some birds can see them!
