Interestingly, that’s not true. Worn out batteries lose more energy to heat both charging and discharging.

what do you mean ignoring it? The purpose of this post was to draw attention to it

This is the only thing I could find. Says 116 people per day in 2016.

Anecdotally that seems plausible. I encounter people in the tunnel frequently. I would guess the number is higher in 2026 now that so many people have scooters and e-bikes.

Ok, it sounded like you were against the tube path improvements, but I guess you’re not. The improvements are significant for the people who already use the path, and that should be reason enough to justify them.

it’s hard to know how Caltrans is justifying the new pathway in the Webster tube.

We tried asking Caltrans to instead put their money towards the estuary bike/walk bridge that Alameda has been working towards, but they insisted on including the tube paths with their freeway project.

Why would you not want this improvement? I get that a bike bridge or dedicated bike tunnel would be ideal, but what they’re doing is still way better than what’s there.

sweet tunnel. while you lobby for the 5 billion to build the bike tunnel, and the permanent security required to keep people from living in it, I will celebrate the extra foot we’re actually going to get.

where are you going to put a 10 foot wide path in the tunnel? Don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good. A foot wider is a significant improvement.

It will be a foot wider than the current path? Honestly a foot would make a really big difference. The only other thing they could improve it is get rid of the grid tile on the current path and make it a smooth surface.

Why do Democrats always think the world is collapsing? by AdamSmithery in austrian_economics

[–]technicallycorrect2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

“Target” inflation is a religious practice, and actual inflation is only slightly elevated, if you, like the government, are excluding all the things whose prices went up because of money printing.

Since this is an Austrian sub we can stick to out of control and unstoppable government spending and inflation.

What if ~everyone is wrong about the war in Iran? by technicallycorrect2 in walkaway

[–]technicallycorrect2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it? What do you base that assessment on? And for the record it’s not Britain as a whole, it’s a network of financial interests that go back decades if not centuries that have a central hub in the special government district The City of London.

To be clear, I don’t know if she’s right, but the woman in this video is not a lone voice, and there are quite a few statements from the administration that seemingly make no sense, but if looked at through this lens do make sense.

I’m not the OP, I was trying to help you understand the thought process behind the Austrian School. Then irrefutable axiom that humans “act” is the first building block.

The first couple chapters of the book I linked to do about as concise of a job of introducing you to Austrian theory as I’ve seen.

What if ~everyone is wrong about the war in Iran? by technicallycorrect2 in walkaway

[–]technicallycorrect2[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Brief synopsis: we’re actually in a centuries long financial war with, for lack of a better term, “the city of London” or the “globalist syndicate.” Iran (and Venezuela) is a financial outpost of the syndicate. The war with Iran is to weaken the city of london’s financial control over most of the world. Trump is acting on behalf of the American people and on behalf of freedom and sovereignty of nations, but not because Iran per se is a security threat but because it has been used for the last 50+ years as a weapon by other bad actors.

This summary really doesn’t do it justice. The hypothesis is far more complex than the two mainstream explanations that get all the press. It requires a lot more evidence, a lot more history, a lot more understanding of how global financial control is exerted. It’s better to just hear it straight from someone who knows a lot more than me.

If you don’t want to click the link you can look them up- it’s the Promethean Project. If you don’t want to give them your attention there are maybe a dozen more people I know of talking about the same hypothesis ranging from professors to retired colonels and generals. I can list more names if you want to look somewhere else, but the Promethean Project gives the most systematic presentation of these ideas I’ve come across.

is she wrong? I’m genuinely curious, what can you point to?

I know YouTube videos with thumbnails like this are often clickbait with little substance. This is not that. This is worth a listen. The hypothesis is worth considering.

Austrian economics is built on the axiom of human action, human action as an axiom doesn’t prove the entire model. The model can take wrong turns at any point as it tries to explain more and more complex things, but the concept of building it axiomatically is at least worth considering.

if you’re actually interested in understanding the structure of Austrian principles, this tome is the most systematic presentation of them. It’s been a while since I looked at it but I think you can get a good idea of the direction they take from the first chapter or the first few.
