Waymo is coming to Baltimore. Interestingly, while D.C. government is still wary of robotaxis Gov. Wes Moore is on board -- says in statement that "it's going to help spur growth, make our roads safer, and get more Marylanders from where they live to where opportunity lies."

Our approach to autonomy also enables scalability: Tesla self-driving can be deployed anywhere it's approved. It does not require expensive, specialized equipment or extensive mapping of service areas. It just works

End of @uber @lyft? We said that many times on SMTMC @TheRideshareGuy, disruptors will be disrupted! How fast can @robotaxi scale? More importantly unit economics! @Waymo

We really did it. We took a growing US manufacturing economy, declared it broken, started a trade war, and ... broke US manufacturing. In last 48 hours: - Philly Fed Survey: "New orders fell sharply, from 8.7 in March to -34.2, its lowest reading since April 2020" - NY Fed

Incredible read about how mobile gambling apps are ravaging Brazil. 20% of a recent social assistance program have been spent on gambling, with some bettors taking out credit at rates exceeding 400% https://t.co/CnTHnzQXY4

Well, this is the opposite of an Iโ€™m-leaving-twitter post. I am newly committed to shouting into the wind of misinformation here, hopelessly fighting the algorithm with my boring facts and nuance. It wonโ€™t work. But if you want in-depth coverage of climate issues, Iโ€™m here.

PSA: NPR just ran a live show about @TangleNews saving a conservative and liberal's marriage, and the influx of new readers/subscribers is throttling our website. It is very exciting, and we are also sorry for any delays. It should be fixed shortly!

New from 404 Media: we've found exactly how a Musk-funded PAC is microtargeting Muslims & Jews with opposing messages. Happening with adverts on Snapchat; digging through data we found the exact ZIP codes the PAC is targeting. Includes areas with mosques https://t.co/Fh3IFKcpb7

NHC Advisory 1 for Tropical Depression 14 had landfall only 12 miles north of where Milton eventually made landfall, at a 4-day lead time. One might say they're pretty good at their jobs.

10 simple facts about North Carolina/Helene: 1. Biden declared a national emergency on Friday 2. Biden declared a major disaster on Saturday, which means survivors can already apply for FEMA funds 3. There are 5,000+ national guardsman in North Carolina 4. The U.S. Coast

Cat 1 to Cat 4 in less than 12 hours. This is why insurance companies are exiting the Gulf and Atlantic Coast regions as quickly as possible, either through massive premium increases or refusing to write new policies. The impact of this is just starting to be felt.

What does it say about our legal system when the U.S. Supreme Court refuses to stop an execution even when the county prosecuting agency that handled the original trial files a brief in support of a stay and supports vacating the entire conviction? #MarcellusWilliams
