I've been there before. I had a high deductible health plan, it was December & I hadn't used any of my premiums... I had a heart attack (I didn't know it at the time). And my mind went to "but my premium! I know, I'll walk myself to urgent care instead of taking an ambulance to the hospital"

On your point of self-driving, I was just looking into if this would be compatible with a comma.ai autopilot, and it looks like Slate doesn't even have the default hardware onboard to allow it (and there's no option to add it?). Unfortunate miss.

Cornell ILR is trying to build out a job board [0] like this -- but I feel like it's failing because it's simply an aggregator of other job boards, with limited value add.

I get it that this is satire, and that they're giving DB a hard time about their constant delays -- but on the other hand there's EU Regulation 261/2004 for compensation for delayed flights. I just found out about EU Regulation 2021/782 on delayed trains, but basically it's not "a thing"?

I agree with you that FAR covers all airspace. There's an interesting case on airspace (over an Indian reservation) & an emergency landing that's winding its way through the courts right now [0]

Sadly accurate - and what is worse is that child support laws by state [0] are actually even more dated in their mechanisms, where despite using an "income shares" model, most don't take custody & parenting time into account.
So despite "savings" from a MFJ filing status, when you go back to Single filer or HOH filer, you're penalized on the child support side.

Interesting - will this open a back door to having Chinese EVs on US roads? I would assume some sort of kei truck loopholes would have to be found to solve state-level registration or insurance requirements.

Curious about what you're using as a cycling platform -- just the Peloton, or are you on a bike trainer? There's a huge library of workouts out there (see [0] as just an example), but mostly targeted at % FTP. The flow path is generally create your workout in an app to generate the FIT file, then upload to the bike computer (or use Zwift). But they tend to not support cadence range as yours does. Would love to find something that gives me %FTP and cadence range!
