So why did it take them 7 months to issue a warrant? It should have been issued on Oct 8. The fact that it didn't tell you all you need to know about how legitimate this "court" is.

It took them 7 MONTHS! To issue an arrest warrant for some blatantly obvious crimes. Issues warrants for both sides at the same time is utterly repugnant and calls the entire court into question.

> to not kill 35 thousand civilians in the process. The current best estimates are for 15 to 20 thousand civilians. When you write 35 thousand you are showing you believe Hamas propaganda.

If less than 50% of the battery was used on a standard run then the bus was unnecessarily expensive.

I VERY strongly disagree with everything you wrote. I think it's a tiny minority of people doing this, with the Internet amplifying their reach. This world runs on trust. For example it's extremely easy to shoplift, yet the vast m

I see the confusion. I was not pushing to add parking minimums in places without them. Rather I was pushing not to remove them in a place that already has them, because I'm against artificially forcing a city to change underneath peo

Quite the opposite, I want people to be able to live wherever they like and stop pressuring them to move to cities. Where do you see me advocate anything else?

You keep randomly switching between suburban and rural as it suits your argument. Fiber infrastructure is well available in suburbs, much earlier than in cities because it's much cheaper in the suburbs. And rural areas grow food, and d

Nice study - but it forgets to "bill" urban areas for the energy used by mass transit, and it doesn't bill them for the extra energy it takes to provide services to them. Shipping things to urban areas whether to a house or a

They are, but they are not doing it very often. You go to a Costco type store monthly, not daily. And you combine trips and basically have a monthly "shopping day". You end up using less energy than your city dwelling friends.

According to the article the amount of brain tissue lost is the same either way. With this study they cut it out, remove, and study it, without the study they burn it away. If that's really the case, then this seems like a non story to

I agree with your premise but your first sentence contradicts your last one. I think there will be criminal indictments, but the punishment will be monetary and will not damage the company long term. It would be really hard to put anyone in

Strongtowns does all their calculation on the worth of a city/town etc based on how much tax revenue it produces. Cities are expensive places to live and mostly produce services with high taxes. The city costs a lot, but also generates

If every house needs two spots - on off street, one on street right in front of the house, all is well. Then someone says "Why should I pay for a parking spot or a garage? I'll just park on-street by my neighbor!" That only w

Not really. Near me that added meters so you pay for parking in front of the commercial areas. So people just drive up the block and park in the resedential areas which have no meters. Paying for parking only works in places where you park

Because people park on the street by their neighbors. So if most houses provide parking, but some don't, they end up free-riding on the neighbors. It's a tragedy of the commons issue, which is something the free market is known no

Suburbs don't have this problem, there is plenty of parking automatically since people have more space there. I've started to notice that all the car problems are just in dense cities: Nowhere for kids to play, noise, lack of park
