NEW BRIGHT SPOTS: Even on 100% gas power, heat pumps cut emissions by ~48% and EVs by about half. The authors of an “electrification doesn’t cut emissions” paper made a series of compounding mistakes and used misleading assumptions. Here's why. janrosenow.substack.com/p/heat-pumps...

Lest we ignore: “89% are in counties where life expectancies is already below the US average and 40% of the population within 3 miles of these projects are in low-income households.” Unregulated industrial policy may be good for aggregate growth but also likely propels all inequalities

The New York Times wrote articles that were like "the impossible-to-characterize elusive politics of Elon Musk / he's lost interest in politics" right before he became *literally the largest GOP donor in history* the next election cycle. Twice. Two times!
This would be the most any person has donated in any election cycle. And #2 is also Musk, in 2024.

The only thing drivers hate more than driving is the suggestion that sometimes they should not drive
A Sun-Times/WBEZ investigation confirms one driver's lament that it was "the worst traffic I've ever had to deal with." Worse yet, epic delays persist — a year after a three-year construction project ended and Gov. JB Pritzker promised “faster commutes.”

from my experience living by a city vehicle yard, we need this in San Diego
Exclusive: The Mamdani administration says it will dramatically expand an effort by his predecessor to install speed governors inside city-owned vehicles, rising from 1,000 today to 3,000, preventing drivers from exceeding the speed limit. buff.ly/kBp8XG2
