No thanks. Canada has too many anti-vax nutters.

Sorry, but BC is not cool. If it wants to join the cool states club, then it needs to implement proper vaccine mandates. Currently, kids do not need to be vaccinated to attend BC public schools.

The same poll also found RFK Jr had the highest positive approval rating — in fact the only major national leader with net positive rating. So I have serious doubts about the accuracy of the polling.

The portrait was originally removed by Act of Congress. Military staff who reinstated the portrait are following an illegal order.

Google search Democratic Party Platform and you’ll find a 92 page document covering everything

Well, I checked it for the issues I care about and there was simply no mention at all. It also appears to have been written by an AI, because the document is a giant word salad of meaningless buzzwords.

According to the bog-standard UIC definition, HSR requires dedicated HSL running generally at 155+mph. UIC has a second definition that does allow for upgraded conventional lines running generally at 125mph in corridors without air competition. Acela meets neither of these metrics.

Even aside from the air competition issue, Acela’s general overall speed is not over 125mph or even 100mph due to all the slow sections. For example:

NEC corridor is not high-speed. The end-end average speed is only 70mph, which is pretty middling even for conventional rail.

Jurado’s web page states: “She focuses on expanding affordable housing, ending homelessness, supporting small businesses, tackling the climate crisis, and building a more just economy for all.”

I don’t know about LiFePo3, but LiFePO4 prices are dropping to the sub $100 level.

Sodium batteries generally have poor round-trip efficiency. This won’t be game-changer for home or solar use unless CATL can solve that problem.

To clarify: the eBike “hit” the car because the driver pulled out into traffic without looking, so the eBike rider was another victim.

The e-bike rider had the right-of-way. “Local police have confirmed e-bike riders were in the traffic lane and the driver pulled in front of them instead of yielding to oncoming traffic.”

While it is wide enough, it would be counterproductive for traffic flow to allow vehicular traffic there. The bridge currently has 2 lanes, and the highway beyond is also two lanes – so having a 3rd lane on the bridge would just lead to a zipper-merge situation that would back traffic up.

No, it is not legal. This bike path is part of the Bay Trail, which was enacted by State legislation, and served as mitigation for environmental damage done by Caltrans highway work. The BCDC was specifically created by the legislature to ensure maximum feasible public access to the Bay. So voting to close the path violates any number of laws and policies.

As for driving while distracted by the phone…yeah that’s also illegal.

Sacramento ticketing for speeds over 15mph:

It is a civil lawsuit so nobody will be jailed.

The grant was from a program called Neighborhood Access and Equity Grant Program. The program was probably canceled by Trump because it had the word Equity in it.

Trump should focus on Ohio instead:
