Building (https://estan.ai), an AI that reverse-engineers real estate listings by pulling not just from public records, but also social media, neighborhood forums, historical sales, and user reviews. It flags red flags—like crime trends, sketchy development patterns, neighborhood trends, and so on—then presents them in plain, opinionated language.

Goal: replace the vague boilerplate of listings with something closer to a paranoid friend who's done way too much research. Curious if this kind of subjective, context-heavy analysis adds real value—or just noise.

NYC subway tap-to-pay via Apple Pay is also instant. Like, actually, instant (<500ms)

Isn’t a better solution for the given distance - rail transport? It’s more affordable, ecological and can serve higher number of people from different economical layers. This seems more like an enthusiast toy rather than an alternative for 50-300 miles travel options.

It would be nice if the study checked whether the higher amount of individuals in the cancer group got their tattoos AFTER they got diagnosed. This may be the case if people are more open to take risky actions following such diagnoses. It would explain why the size of the tattoo didn’t correlate with change of getting cancer. Such conclusion will ultimately disprove the causation.

There’s a nice government’s map that demonstrates potential impact of the various quake scenarios in Seattle: https://experience.arcgis.com/experience/2acb05d732134331bc0...

An interesting observation is that Cascadia Subduction Zone is potentially less devastating than Seattle Fault despite being capable of a 100x bigger magnitude (9+ vs 7.2) thanks to a longer distance from the city

They could in theory combat it by comparing results with a second crawler that uses a different User Agent.
