I’ve only watched the first of these, but having done so, I’m not sure I want to bother with the second. The guy in the first video repeated the (likely true) claim that WFH impacts commercial real estate value and then dunked on a couple of articles about return to work policies. But the question was, why does that sway Amazon’s thinking?

Still my favourite game of all time, so it didn’t really spring to mind for ‘underrated’ games. Pleasing to see it mentioned all the same.

The point seems to have gone quite a long way over your head. The person above is advocating for a system where transit/active travel is the easy option. Not one where you have to up your commute by 500% to do the right thing.

It’s not, “just use transit”, it’s “please make it easier to do so”.

Does nobody else find the framing of this article a little weird? I thought the argument for boosting the economy, was because it correlated well with people’s well being. (Not that I personally but that, but I understand the line of thought). Now instead we’re suggesting that human outcomes are important because it boosts an arbitrary measure? I feel like the cart is now dragging the horse along the ground.

I registered when I saw this, just so I could share this really good analysis. It explains why expanding traffic through the tunnel (whether by Eurostar or competition) isn’t as simple as we might both assume and hope.
