It's New York City, we don't need to give the largest company in the world a huge discount to do business here. It's not like the economic development of NYC is dependent on Amazon. It's a central hub to so many industries because of its infrastructure, talent, connection to capital markets etc, not because of handing out discounts.

I live in LIC and I've not met anyone who supported it, especially the $3BN of incentives.

No wonder Gianaris, who represents our district in the NY Senate, was such a strong opponent.

This is super cool, but I always get nervous about people messing around with lasers. This person seems to be somewhat safety conscious, but I worry they get treated as toys.

I was completely blown away by the Fully Jarvis (https://www.fully.com/). Mine worked out to ~$500, took all of 5 minutes to set up and has been completely rock solid. It's super customizable, and the quality has been really excellent so far (especially the bamboo top).

I dig that they're a B corp too.

This is a fantastic way to completely destroy your business. What a naive way to try and cover for a lack of investment in safety.

My heart breaks for that dog and her family. Absolutely unbelievable.

FWIW re: cell carriers in the US, I've found prepaid has worked really well for me at a much lower price than even something like Google Fi. I've been using Mint, and I pay $25 a month for a 10GB plan and it's worked great so far.

I've heard their support isn't the best, but fortunately I've not had to deal with them yet.

The wheel

I wonder if typography can exist within a writing system like this?

That privacy popup in NY really worked!
