Why am I so unimpressed by these strikes? Israel and the US have failed to target significant elements of Iran's nuclear materials and production infrastructure. RISING LION and MIDNIGHT HAMMER are tactically brilliant, but may turn out to be strategic failures. 🧵 1/17

When you telegraph your intentions for weeks, the other side has time to line up a few trucks and move some stuff around.

About eight months into owning my first electric vehicle, a few years into robotics and autonomy, watching Waymo’s progress, …the handwriting is clearly on the wall.
we did a study on this looking at Seattle and without a zone fee or VMT fee, folks would likely send their cars home and have it get them later instead of paying for parking. Here’s a summary : www.americanscientist.org/article/barg...
Bargain-Hunting Robocars Could Spell the End for Downtown Parking
Cities need to plan ahead for automated vehicles that can drop passengers in urban areas then travel long distances to find free lots or street spaces.

JD Vance - If you believe any of the multiple federal courts that have ruled against you so far are exceeding their statutory or Constitutional authority, your recourse is to appeal. You don’t get to rage-quit the Republic just because you are losing. That’s tyranny.
