@mattyglesias Yea but most Americans have no clue how they're doing financially. They do see gas prices multiple times every day, though
English
Voters obviously not in the mood for a lecture about how good they have it, but $4.50 gasoline just isn't what it used to be in terms of impact on people's financial well-being.

@Aella_Girl @etirabys If you value your time to yourself, sleep, or being able to think about non-kid things don't do it (source: am parent). Yea you could hire people to take care of your kid for you but then what's the point of having one

when I end my workday as a housewife (7-9pm) I feel ghastly. all I can do is read something simple, like a book or social media. after 2h of this I'm definitely ready for cognitive work. 30m isn't enough, though.
what's your guess as to when the readiness flip happens?

@coldhealing I live in Brooklyn and would kill for one night drinking natural wine in Brooklyn (I have an infant)

@QiaochuYuan just because something's unlikely doesn't mean it's impossible

@DKThomp So does this mean that Xai gets to distill their new models from claude mythos?
English
Wow.
The AI supply crunch is real. Frontier labs are desperate for compute. Musk has compute capacity but a meh model, and Anthropic has a fantastic model with weak capacity.
Now I wonder if Elon continues to refer to his new business partner as “woke AI,” “Misanthropic,” etc.
Claude@claudeai
We’ve agreed to a partnership with @SpaceX that will substantially increase our compute capacity. This, along with our other recent compute deals, means that we’ve been able to increase our usage limits for Claude Code and the Claude API.

@PedanticKilljoy @xwanyex Kids these days aren't fucking as much as they used to, too
English
The line "do you know how much you have to abuse an animal to make it not want to have children" is dumb as shit.
Animals have babies because when they fuck, it makes a baby.
Humans can choose not to have babies because we have tech that makes having babies a lifestyle choice instead of the inevitable biological consequence of our primal urges.
All child-free discourse is a fascinating intellectual exercise, much like theodicy, where the speaker is putting in an astounding amount of work to avoid making the obvious 1-to-1 connection that is sitting right in front of their face because they don't like the implications of that obvious 1-to-1 connection.

@can Isn't all of Williamsburg just the new soho (soho for people under 60)

@TheAnnaGat Let's be real, very few people in SF are making a (positive) difference
English
Go to Europe to find a girl. Come back to SF to make a difference.
ₕₐₘₚₜₒₙ@hamptonism
this could have been you europe-maxxing this summer but instead you chose to share a 1bdr with four other dudes in sf to walk around the city with your laptop slightly open so your agents won’t stop running.

Most people reading this are centimillionaires

@stanfordNYC Yea but that's because it's a thin strip of park surrounded by 6 lanes of traffic. No one wants to hang out in that! Whereas THIS park will be an even thinner strip surrounded by only FOUR lanes of traffic. Much better!
English
Boston already has this and it basically sucks. It sits cold and empty for a whole half of the year, and even in fair weather is among the worst-utilized land in downtown. A swathe of prime land not used for living, working, commerce, transportation or infrastructure.

What if Park Avenue felt more like a park? New renderings showcase options to transform E 46 St to E 57 St with wider medians, greenery, seating, pedestrian enhancements, and more. Get involved and help shape the future at a public workshop. ⬇️

Your daily reminder that:
- The correct inclusionary zoning percentage is 0
- The correct amount of impact fees $0
- The correct utility hookup fee is $0
- The correct transfer tax rate is 0%
Boom, I've just shaved 20% or more off development costs with the stroke of a pen.

@DerekPederson3 The sidewalk, because in most circumstances in the US there are no pedestrians anyway. Would be nice if there were protected bike lanes
English
In most circumstances, do you think bikes should go on…

@_KennyUong_ @constans it's good but it's too far out for a lot of people. If you live in already gentrified brooklyn it does nothing for you.
English
We just need a few quickly fixes
nazzo@nazzobetweeting
i love having to go through manhattan to go from brooklyn to brooklyn
English
@blackopsposter @2024dion No it wouldn't, it would keep rents the same. Even if it did make it cheaper somehow and it wasn't ruled unconstitutional, it wouldn't give people dishwashers or in-unit washer/dryers.
Only way for most people have "luxuries" like a dishwasher is to build lots of luxury housing
English
@deapthoughts @2024dion Everyone’s rent would be cheaper if the universal rent control I want would pass.

New York is the greatest wealth generation engine ever created by man and yet New York housing stock is so low quality that they’re doing ‘which basic household appliances are REALLY necessary’ discourse
𝖓𝖎𝖓𝖊 🕯@atlanticesque
YOU 🫵 must pick one of four studio apartments to live in with the following sets of amenities. (Each has a sink, and if no bathroom, six units share one on the floor) 1. Oven, Fridge, Bathroom 2. Fridge, Bathroom, W/D 3. Oven, Fridge, Dishwasher 4. Fridge, Dishwasher, Bathroom
English
@blackopsposter @2024dion you know you could have all these things too, and it'd still be NYC, and your rent would be a lot cheaper, maybe even as cheap as his. You just need to support different policies
English
@deapthoughts @2024dion He could have a gold plated bidet that gives him a hand job while washing his ass and he’d still be in Kansas City.
English
@blackopsposter @2024dion Yea he probably has a oven, fridge, dishwasher, washer/dryer, and bathroom in his place, which he pays less for than a microstudio with none of these things in NYC
