Solving a problem at its root cause is usually better than trying to fix the consequences of those causes. Just helping the homeless without addressing what pushes people to homelessness would be a never ending cycle of providing aid to new people pushed into homelessness

How exactly does an EV become a power plant? If EVs were power plants they wouldn't need charging stations or to be plugged in over night.

You would need a lot more salt than that to significantly damage the ecosystem. For example, many roads are salted all winter, it does impact local ecosystems, especially waterways, but it doesn't comepletely kill them in most places. Plus a lot of the ash from the fires can be quite nutritious for plants which can help with recovery.

"Thank you, over, eh"

We can't just keep throwing money at help groups in hopes that will magically solve homelessness, we need to address the economic factors pushing people there, the high and ever increasing costs of living. From a ponzi scheme housing market to ever increasing groccery costs, people are being priced out of their apartments and homes.

We need to invest in affordable housing and transit, we need to break up the groccery cartels that keep getting away with price fixing, we need to slow immigration to ease the pressure on rental units, we need to rework the temporary foreign worker programs to be less exploitative which would open up more low skill jobs available to homeless populations.

But our governments don't want to do any of that because it hurts their sweet sweet profits and the oligarch shareholders. Best they can offer is some cash for local outreach groups that often don't have the resources to make meaningful change (at least compared to the reaources available to governments).

Isn't it obvious this only happened cause of those pesky bike lanes?

And if Howells had followed common self custody advice, he'd have had his seed phrase written down somewhere safe so he could recover his wallet and BTC to any other hard drive.

Plus theere are no fenders or mudflaps on that one. Which is illegal in some places as there is nothing to prevent rocks or other debris from being thrown around by the tires.

The headlights could have been located lower on the grill where the orange turning signals are currently located.

A great tag/grounders arena

If a transport truck can have lights at a reasonable height and angle that don't blind me, so can a standard pick up truck. Many transports actually have their lights mounted lower than pick up trucks and full size SUVs.

Skill issue

Its actually a good thing to have diversity of incomes in a neighborhood rather than just "oh thats the poor neighbourhood."

Functional transit could bring massive changes to the emissions and housing issues facing this country. It would also impact big auto and big oil profits, the people our politicians actually tend to work for.

I had a very strange feeling reading this article alone and on my phone. Overall a very interesting read. It helps explain some of the minor decisions I'll make in life, like always choosing a checkout with a cashier regardless of the length of the line. Sometimes I converse with the cashier or someone in line and it does slightly improve my mood in a way thats difficult to explain.

I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these!!!!

What, that would never happen. Tesla has a bulletproof reliability rating and rock solid quality control. They use extensive reporting techniques to catch issues before they happen. Their self driving feature is 1000 time better than a human, hence why we need to dig a tunnel to isolate them from everything else.

It doesn't help that nearly every party campaigns on "fixing the old mistakes" but rarely offers new ideas forward. And when they do promise new ideas like electoral reform, it doesn't happen once they are elected.

The only way he would make it happen is if his developer buddies could make money off it.
