I can’t believe it - after years of advocacy, exclusionary zoning has ended in Cambridge. We just passed the single most comprehensive rezoning in the US—legalizing multifamily housing up to 6 stories citywide in a Paris style Here’s the details 🧵

ok, for the LONGEST time we haven't had a (nice) way to auto crosspost RSS feeds to Bluesky, so here we go. I "forked" (didn't actually fork since only the post part is similar) this from GitHub and turned it into this -- uses PM2 to manage it easily (it's more stable apparently) 🧵

As much as I don’t want to give them credit, insurance companies may end up being the ones to push home builders to switch to ICF, rather than wood frame, which is garbage and outdated in comparison. There’s even a nursery rhyme about 3 little pigs that teaches that!

We’re way overdue to stop building with wood. It’s barely cheaper than Insulated Concrete Form (ICF) nowadays, takes longer than ICF to build with, and sucks ass at handling things like hurricanes. Wood is garbage, steel reinforced ICF is the future. www.fastcompany.com/91260499/no-...

Hi, Bluesky. Our friends from @cpsc.gov said we should join. Our memes are less unhinged but we try to be funny sometimes. What we really want to do is make sure workers know their rights and employers understand their responsibilities — and where they can go for help with a workplace issue.

When a school district has budget issues despite residents paying high property taxes, the cause almost always comes down to either/both of two things: 1) High cost of benefits like pensions or health insurance (that industry needs to burn in hell) 2) High administrative bloat
