Amazing how much more dangerous motorbikes are than all the other options “A motorcyclist who traveled 15 miles every day for a year had an astonishing 1 in 860 chance of dying. A person who took a 500 mile flight every day for a year would have a fatality risk of 1 in 85,000.”

@SteveStuWill I was curious how bicycling compares, and it looks like the risk is somewhere between 37 and 126 per billion miles traveled (at least 5x as dangerous as driving per mile, but still at least nearly twice as safe as motorcycling):

The mainstream media with its laptop class mentality won’t tell you this but a samizdat outlet called the New York Times says we shouldn’t require college degrees for employment.

Once again seeing some of you argue about whether housing programs should have budgets in the tens of millions, or in the billions. Meanwhile there is not a single jurisdiction in the US with the actual capacity to do large scale real estate development. Until then it’s all moot.

wrap it up, folks! I just proved that hot dogs are, unequivocally, sandwiches 🌭
embeddings for different foods from the @OpenAI API, reduced dimensionality with UMAP, plotted here colored by "category". Hot dogs are solidly in the sandwich cluster, along with tacos and burritos

My fundamental beef with NIMBY homeowners: they want the exclusivity of a country club, but with non-members paying their dues.

Almost all of Ireland’s post-2007 growth is phony profit-shifting by multinationals dodging taxes

The post-pandemic decline in labor force participation is old people reaping the benefits of the boom in house prices.
