Did @united just end SFO-MIA? Flight just got cancelled for this summer…

Every runner ever.

Highly suggest people add this list. None of this info is coming across my for you page even though I follow it. Gives real info and feels like old twitter x.com/i/lists/14904272450971…

British Columbia is adopting year-round daylight time. Great move! We should do the same- it’s time to end this travesty!

My top route requests as a SFO flyer: SFO-GUC (would induce huge seasonal demand) SFO-CHS SFO-BTV Also more @united frequency on SFO-SEA…I’m a loyal flyer but have flown Delta/Alaska on this route several times because of a lack of options

United actually has some of the best tech for airlines but this is definitely a miss and an easy enhancement!

The entire country calling San Jose/Santa Clara “San Francisco” is exactly why oakland should be allowed to rebrand the airport to “Oakland/SF Bay Area”

What’s crazy is that if boring company was as successful as SpaceX and Tesla, it could have the most positive impact out of any Elon company. Imagine building tunnels for cheap and pivoting to subway. Would redefine all American cities and greatly reduce cost of living

All this shows is that people don’t actually need to use their cars or they’d have dug them out. And instead they’re using public streets as free storage that is impeding the city’s ability to clear them

Seeing this footage is actually wild. It’s clear that cars don’t belong here *now*. There are so many more places that fit this profile but we haven’t realized it yet.

Need to see the Steelers invest in and draft in a good young QB. I hope Tomlin stays with the team, one of the best coaches there is. Omar khan should be on the hot seat if anyone. Haven’t had a good offense since Antonio brown and le’veon bell were on the team.

Steelers fans pushing for Tomlin to be out are insane. One of the best coaches in the league. All of this without having a franchise QB since ~2018 Big Ben. Yes he has flaws (Canada should’ve been fired so much sooner) but any other coach would be at the bottom of the AFC instead

The AP voters need to recalibrate themselves next year. The SEC just isn’t competitive in the NIL era

Why is the west coast team vs the Texas team playing the earliest time slot today?

I get why people want a billionaire tax... The anger isn't irrational; it's a response to a system that feels rigged to some. When someone worth $10 billion pays a lower effective tax rate than a schoolteacher, something feels wrong, and the system isn't broken by accident, it's working exactly as designed, and that design can be rethought! If people knew the actual mechanics of how taxes work they would probably be even angrier. If Jensen Huang passed away tomorrow, it would be insanely sad, and- His estate would pay roughly 40% in federal estate taxes, though with the right setup a lot of that could be avoided. His kids would inherit the remaining tens of billions in Nvidia stock with the cost basis reset to current value, erasing all the appreciation for tax purposes. They could then borrow $100M a year against it, and never pay income tax on any of it. It doesn't feel fair to the teacher paying income tax on every dollar or the software engineer taking home 55% of their paycheck. The frustration is justified. It feels unfair to the teacher paying taxes on every dollar and the software engineer taking home 55% of their paycheck (California wtf!). The frustration people feel around that is justified! I think I pay too much in taxes too! But we have to pay them, and I think we should strive to build a tax system that is more fair. But California's "one-time 5% billionaire wealth tax" is a terrible way to go about it It doesn't stop the borrow-die-inherit cycle It forces an exodus of exactly the wrong people It creates perverse incentives without fixing any underlying problems. Most people seem to have not read the act - here it is: oag.ca.gov/system/files/init… it's bad and poorly written. It's a residency trap. Pick a date, pick a line, and you create one giant incentive to leave. You only need a few top taxpayers to go (sounds like Thiel and Brin are getting ready), and California loses years of income tax, capital gains, and the gravity that keeps companies anchored here. It unfairly punishes the wrong people. A founder with $1B on paper in a Series E startup isn't actually rich yet, that company could go to zero, they can't sell without losing control, and they're still working. A wealth tax forces them to find cash they don't have... you can say "they could sell shares" but not every company is even liquid enough to do that. Meanwhile, someone already liquid can structure around it with better lawyers. The cheering from @RoKhanna "I will miss them very much" is shortsighted. Celebrating capital flight is celebrating a smaller tax base and bigger deficits. People who start companies are the growth engine of our state and country. Making them your enemy isn't progressive, it's self-defeating. There's also a practical problem: net worth isn't a clean number. Public stock is easy. Everything else becomes a valuation fight. You'll create a cottage industry of appraisals and litigation. If we want to address the unfairness, target the specific moves that make the system feel rigged. Two ideas that actually map to the problem and are palatable IMO: 1. Tax large loans against appreciated stock above a high threshold (say $10M). If someone borrows $50M against stock to fund consumption, that's functionally income. This targets the "borrow to avoid taxes" play directly. 2. End step-up in basis for large inheritances (say above $10M here too). Step-up basis is why "they never pay." Ending it at high levels keeps incentives for entrepreneurship while reducing dynastic wealth transfers that were never taxed. Those approaches don't punish illiquid founders. They tax moments when wealth turns into spendable cash, and they tax gains that would otherwise be erased. TBH I don't know if $10M is the right number, just throwing a number out there that seems in the ballpark. Finally - before we invent new taxes with big second-order effects, we need get our house in order. Middle-class people still pay enormous amounts in taxes, and we are wasting it. I'm not sure that 20% of the budget is fraud (what @elonmusk says) but we definitely have a bloated budget, both federally and in California. As we know from DOGE, it's really hard to fix. In California there is a lot of low hanging fruit though... we need to cut what isn't working and stop treating every problem with "we just need a new tax on a small group to make it work" I'm not against wealthy people paying their fair share, and I don't think most of us are! I am against feel-good policy that backfires, shrinks the base, and makes the state less competitive. If we want fairness and a tax system people trust, we should go after unfair loopholes, not a headline.

My hot take is that TSA Precheck is actually perfectly fine at 95% of airports. It’s stupid that the govt gave a contract to clear but TSA Pre is just as good 90% of the time and most people are just throwing away money by signing up for clear.

Does anyone else keep on clicking(?) into an ad somehow on their Twitter feed and then getting stuck on the ad in the embedded browser and the only way to get out is to quit the whole app?

First Star link flight on United and this is awesome

I can’t wait to one day watch Big Game and have it be a great matchup between two good teams instead of who is least bad on the day. Maybe 5 years out from that?

It feels like the government shutdown and espn/youtube tv contract negotiation have blended together
