The park is partially reopened last year and you can definitely bike or hike in without reservation (https://www.parks.ca.gov/?page_id=540). My friends and I were able to ride a lot of trails but the shade is mostly gone for sure.

That said I think human need to be multi-planet to be able to survive big disasters. And asteroids as a small scale space station has its own benefits compared to planets or space crafts.
Guessing as a 21st century human of course :)
Hope the battery won’t catch fire cuz someone will be sleeping in it
FWIW, Caltrain is being electrified and there are people fighting for more development and density.
What kind of life is it if a mouse or human is reproduced without parents.
I believe that communities and small cities could be a more vibrant and livable place when they are slightly denser and more walkable.
My smallish city is 20 miles south of SF and it’s becoming more and more walkable and bikeable unlike sprawling San Jose or mansion-only Atherton.
Take the medium sized town I lived in for example, average home price is well over $1M which is unreachable for most. The city is bounded by sea and mountains and the land is mostly built out. Even though all new constructions are multi-family homes, hundreds more needs to be built. Existing homes are privately owned and will hardly change even under SB9 (allowing duplex). Empty or vacant lots are few and take years to review/infill.

Found this an unfortunate recurring theme when people talk about moving for jobs/weather/lifestyle. The life-changing things are often local and outside your news feed
Online comments, even non-political ones, can still get so heated. Etiquette seems to be better followed in the real world than in anonymous comment section.
A suburban area with single family houses + high paying jobs = exclusionary house prices
1. Planters with several holes that I drilled 2. Soil that I mixed for better drainage
A thirsty plant is better than rotten plant
Life is irreversible. I’m curious to know what the plans are if lockdown ends asap.
On the other hand, I also feel that the commitments and policies in this society are more about protecting the elderly and their way of living (their wealth, single family homes, less sustainability, car-based city planning). Some may be debatable. But isn’t protecting each other part of humanity? I hope we are not in a stage where we have to decide which groups to sacrifice. If US is a still free country, is freedom-from-danger also a form of freedom as well?
Interesting but how does promoting such employee limit the damage (instead of causing more damage to the team)?
Content curation doesn’t scale as well as search algorithms. It reminds me of Yahoo and other portals who relies on editorial staffs (not meant it in a bad way).
Atherton 1,438.97/sq mi (555.53/km2)
Belmont 5,843.98/sq mi (2,256.45/km2)
San Mateo 8,570.40/sq mi (3,309.14/km2)
When some have the freedom of protecting their private land, others end up with the freedom of riding diesel only, underfunded trains. The liberty of some seems greater than others’.
The OG Kowloon Walled City became itself because of lawlessness and self-sustaining. With law and regulation in place it’s hard to build anything close to it.
It gets funnier to see when it protects its anti-China propaganda under the religious freedom in the West. There are plenty of people who consider Communist China evil. Again nothing wrong about that. But Falun Gong is a convenient political tool.
Maybe in practice it’s really hard to separate religions with politics. Mind control and story telling are the most powerful things that can be done to men.
