    Canada. You’ve invented Canada.

    Capitalism with a really good social safety net. Guns are OK to own, but no automatic ones. Immigration of high skilled people all day every day. Reasonable taxes that don't break incentives, spend the money on kids. That's your future tax revenue. That's it.

    Just heard from a teacher friend prepping for the school year: they've been told they can't leave classroom doors open to promote better air circulation, because that would circumvent the school's automatic locking system that's in place for active shooter situations.

    The BioRxiv preprint reports that oleandrin has "potent antiviral activity down to 0.05 µg/ml." . But Wikipedia says "The fatal blood concentration of oleandrin has been estimated for humans to be approximately 20 ng/ml"

    John’s been doing awesome work making Twitter bots (eg ) that detect aircraft loitering overhead. If you’re of a mind to support people making nifty software, this project is worth consideration for your backing:

    I've been furloughed from Disney Imagineering R&D for 4 months without pay, and now my laptop broke, so I've decided to take donations to support my work on the Advisory Circular bots and other projects that help you figure out what's flying overhead.

    If walking costs you $1, we all pay $0.01. If biking costs you $1, we all pay $0.08. If bussing costs you $1, we all pay $1.50. If driving costs you $1, we all pay $9.20. Via study. This isn’t just about choice. It’s about who pays for the choice.
