First: “Speed-related” fatalities include any fatality where speed could be identified as a factor in the form. If a drink driver in a stolen car plows into a crowd of people on a sidewalk, it will get classified as “Speed-related” even though there are clearly more obvious causal factors.

I dunno, I plugged my 15 kV line into an extension cord and the next thing I know I’m in the hospital :-D

Ms. Delvey, I told you to stay off the Internet.

Note this well, EV enthusiasts who scoff at the Hummer EV.

Fun story: the reason the trains need to lean is that some of the tunnels in Connecticut are so narrow that the cars would hit the walls otherwise.

OK, so, side note:

Maybe. If you think Cleveland can be a bedroom community of Chicago.

I hate Uber and agree it creates traffic congestion. But counterpoint: if we can give people making less than $40,000 a year a thousand dollars, they should be able to do whatever they damn well please with it. Including taking a mode of transportation which benefits them and harms the rest of us.

Pie charts have one valid purpose, in my view: showing how insignificant a part of something is relative to the whole.

So you’re comparing the total visitors in January to those counted in other months, and perhaps observing which months have the most visitor traffic.

Thanks for the info. I hope you told PG&E not to kill people, if we’re all giving each other advice :-)

You’d just need to tell the car, "make sure I'm charged up by 7AM tomorrow" and it would optimize charging for grid reliability and your own cost.

It’s the difference between “TO limit power use between 4 and 9 PM” and “limit power use TO between 4 and 9 PM.” Easy mistake to make.

I’m pretty sure you mean NOT to charge between 4 and 9 PM. That’s when our power is most expensive and dirtiest relative to demand. Waiting until after 9 means getting out of the peak.

Exactly! I don’t want to push this all onto capitalism writ large (it’s a decent way of allocating certain resources within strict limits), but this whole notion of shareholder/management capitalism which really took off with Neutron Jack is bringing us to a perilous point.

OK, this is probably just a problem with Vox not bothering to translate the PDF (it is in German...), but a 3% decrease in car trips is much different from a 3% decrease in congestion.

Also like creating a huge rental housing shortage where one in every ten rentable units is illegally off-market.

Or, to keep the theme, provincial?

Was this a member of government or a professional hockey player?
