All of the money spent now on pro-active regular checkups and prevention will limit the amount of reactive expensive emergency surgeries later

The simplest solution is just don’t buy these TVs
It wasn’t always so one sided. Jane Jacobs wrote about the power and effect of local community surveillance over the streets in her book The Death and Life of Great American Cities. When we zone for and build mixed use streets with enough density and points of interest to ensure foot traffic at all points in the day from a variety of ordinary people, with a healthy percentage of them being established locals, then it’s much easier for good samaritans to notice when something goes wrong (like a kidnapping attempt) and intervene. Privacy used to be a lot easier to achieve too when you needed it.
Longer trips should probably be multimodal if you can no matter where you are in the world. How are the public transportation and bike shares?
Seems to be gaining popularity with real estate and construction to help visualize spaces as they’re being built and/or sold
Are these posts/ads coming in after Carney roasted them?
Alberta’s shorts are great 💙
As someone who owns both an old Pebble watch and an Apple Watch, there are definitely a lot of days where I think Pebble got it more right than Apple. I think I’d be happiest with something in between that wasn’t artificially weakened by Apple gatekeeping all of their most useful APIs.
Unless this thing runs on fossil fuels, I don’t think it’s really going to have a big impact on climate change.
I guess there’s an argument that this is taking away engineering hours from projects that might have more practical uses in addressing climate change but I’d counter that sometimes engineers need a break from their usual work to avoid burning out from tedious incremental tasks and rigid processes. A bit of time and space for experimentation can be helpful, reinvigorating, and can lead to future discoveries and inventions if done right.
