i know the sexy and fun thing to do is say you'll punch anyone you see wearing google glasses but even if it's more boring i'd rather people talk more broadly about how to set meaningful expectations of privacy e.g. japan's regulations requiring cell phones make a loud snap when taking a photo

My interpretation of “War on cars” has always been one of rebalancing by means of tipping the effort+funding scale towards other transportation modalities, but the way N.American cities have been designed since the 1920s makes it impossible to completely eliminate cars.

Never forget, if you design a city for cars, it fails for everyone, including drivers.
If you design a multi-modal city that makes walking, biking & public transit attractive options, it works better for everyone, including drivers.
INCLUDING DRIVERS.
The “war on cars” has always been a lie.

Whether it was a central speaking point or just a sound bite taken out of context, the fact that Sean Duffy said it out loud is an indication that he - along with every cabinet member of the Trump Admin. - use distractions as a cover-up for their inability to govern (at all). THEY’RE UNFIT TO LEAD!
