Every city and state should read the writing on the wall and start to push *now* for legislation that prevents the use of force as deployed by police drones and robots.
NYC bill would ban NYPD use of armed robots in policing
NYC lawmaker proposes “Asimov Act” to keep police robots unarmed as high-tech policing raises questions about safety and surveillance.

I don't recall any previous transformative technologies that had to be sold to the public so hard. No one in 1999 was going, "Guys. Cell phone? It's coming, whether we like it or not. I think it's important, FOR WOMEN ESPECIALLY, to learn about cell phone. So that we're not left behind!!"

"They were so lucky I was looking"

Ummm no. Stopping in time for a child running onto the street is not heroic/lucky, it is your goddamn obligation as a driver. Cost of entry. Kids are allowed to be unpredictable, you are not.

When it comes to spreading disinformation, dark money buys a lot of repetition, because repetition works.

Every day I surprise my patients. By telling them their disease is not from poor personal choices, but rather from poor land-use decisions by their city.

No access to safe walking & biking, more diabetes and kidney disease. They get it.

Governor Lamont sent a “surrogate” to our DTC who read from a piece of paper and scolded us that now is not the time for any open debate.

I for one would like a choice this August, especially when it comes yo taxing the wealthy to help the rest of CT.

“In London cyclists now outnumber cars in the City by 2 to 1. Paris, where they now outnumber motorists across the whole city, is catching up with Europe’s traditional bike capitals, Amsterdam & Copenhagen…In Copenhagen, bikes account for almost half of commuter trips to work/school.” @economist.com

I think probably the one misconception that bothers me about bike lanes is that people assume they are for those who bike...when really they are for those who are too scared to bike.

A study in Copenhagen finds that 70% of survey participants support removing parking spots to make room for street life, cycling, and vegetation. Sure, Copenhagen is not Los Angeles, but I think planners and electeds in the U.S. overestimate support for street parking

zohran increased the number of snow shovelers from 500 to 1,400 for this blizzard, paying them $30/hour to shovel sidewalks with at least a four-foot berth so that wheelchairs and strollers can get through. he didn't overhaul city government to do it, he just used the power given to him and did it!

You should not be working on the railroad all the live-long day, nor should you be working on the railroad just to pass the time away. You should be working on the railroad for the duration of a reasonable shift, for fair wages.

ICE using the same ruse that Ted Bundy used to kidnap people should tell you something.
CCTV footage appears to show DHS agents posing as people having car trouble in order to lure a target out of his house before arresting them. The target comes out and starts helping them before 3 vehicles surround the scene. The car "experiencing" trouble then drives off with them.

It's not quite the most pressing issue at the moment, but the American people absolutely have a right to know the names of the federal officials who shot and killed a man peacefully protesting, who was on his knees, prone in the street when they shot him in the back.

As always, the actions of a panicked civilian will be put under a microscope and used to say they deserved death, yet the actions of a (supposedly) trained government agent - before, during, and after the event - will be hand waved as 'reasonable confusion', 'human nature', and faux-empathetic BS
