I know SEPTA has a lot going on, but can we talk about how they had an extra-long trolley blitz this summer, and then this weekend closed the tunnel again for more repairs, which are now stretching two days beyond the scheduled date with no end in sight?

On our “toxic tour” of dirty uses along the Delaware in Chester City, it became even clearer how unjust it is for Philly to send its trash here to be burned — poisoning our air and lungs. Let’s stop making Chester and our neighborhoods sick!

Philly sends a third of its trash to a Chester incinerator. Council members took a ‘Toxic Tour’ to get a closer look.
Reworld’s contract with Philadelphia ends in June 2026. Councilmember Jamie Gauthier has introduced a bill that would prohibit the city from incinerating trash.

Getting blocked by on-the-order-of-1000 accounts is a big nothingburger, but I'm worried that multiple people at huggingface complaining about it on X, including an ethicist who I think really does mean well, tells you a lot about which way the wind is blowing over at huggingface.
Blocking hatemongers is one thing but this trend of using mass block lists to avoid hearing from people who might or might not hold points of view you expect to disagree with is unhealthy imo and hurts the platform.

Bluesky was better off with folks like Margaret Mitchell and Giada Pistilli on it.

Ok - #jj-vcs question: if I push a jj repo (backed by git) and pull it onto another machine, are change IDs the same across machines? What's the story there?

Does literally anyone know why Google AI forbids me from learning more information about black pepper???

I’m typically ignoring the AI Overview but this one has baffled me lol

And also if anyone has a recipe for a soup that’s heavy on black pepper, I’m all ears
