@KangofQueens @amNewYork Congestion pricing is making our infrastructure ✨more functioning✨
🤯🤯🤯
English

@amNewYork The air quality is FINE.
We don't need electric utility vehicles that are probably bought from some legislator's cousin.
We'd prefer functioning infrastructure.

Congestion pricing tolls that have been collected for over a year in Manhattan will help pay for more clean trucks in NYC, MTA and transportation officials said on Wednesday.

Rot in Hell Sloth World owners 😡 poor creatures.
Congressman Maxwell Alejandro Frost@RepMaxwellFrost
I am appalled to hear about the 31 sloths who died under the “care” of the not yet opened Sloth World in Orlando. These sloths — naturally solitary animals — were put in the worst conditions possible. They were taken from their natural habitats to a packed warehouse that wasn’t properly heated and allowed for the spread of deadly viruses, leading to a stress-induced death. My office is looking into this tragedy, and we will coordinate with local officials to determine how to best move forward. fox35orlando.com/news/31-sloths…

@mattadler81 You got the coveted ramp pie! I hope they have them this weekend.

@mattadler81 … if you ever wanted to do the Cucina Morini / Stracci collab again, no one would be mad about it.

@Metrorailinfo What is the event? Why is public infrastructure shut down for a private event? Is it a republican fundraiser?
English

@flyLAXairport why is the shuttle bus between T6 and B taking 25+ minutes? More than a hundred people waiting for it currently. Your website says every 10 mins.

Amazon just confirmed 16,000 layoffs but sources inside are telling me the real story is so much worse
Word from three different VPs: the 16K number is just "Phase One" - internal docs show another 14,000 cuts planned for Q2
A director in AWS walked me through their new "efficiency matrix" - entire teams being replaced by 2-3 senior engineers running Claude Sonnet workflows
The Alexa division got completely hollowed out. 847 engineers two months ago. 23 remaining after this week. All hardware development moved to a Bangalore team of 31 contractors with Cursor access
Here's the sick part: they're making the outgoing engineers document their entire decision-making process into "knowledge transfer sessions" that are being recorded and fed directly into training datasets
One L7 told me he spent his final two weeks creating detailed prompt libraries and workflow documentation. Thought he was being helpful for the transition
Turns out he was literally training the AI agent that replaced his entire org
The contractors offshore are using his exact prompts and shipping features 40% faster than his old team of 12 Americans ever did
Internal Slack shows leadership celebrating "operational excellence" while badges get deactivated in real-time
They're calling it "right-sizing for the AI era" in the all-hands
But the P&L sheets I'm seeing show $280M in salary savings this quarter alone
The knowledge extraction is complete
If you're still at Amazon and haven't started job hunting, you're already dead
