US public infrastructure is a global embarassment and a national emergency.
The Francis Scott Key bridge collapsed in 2024.
It is now projected (ty @TimothyDooner) to be completed in 2030 at multiples of original cost.
Africa has high speed rail.
Indonesia has high speed rail (median salary $143 per month, not a typo).
We have nothing despite having spent 10s of billions on it.
If we can build anything at all it is extremely slow and insanely expensive and increasingly prone to accident.
This problem doesn鈥檛 seem as bad as it actually because we rely on infrastructure built well 100s of years ago.
Can we still do it? No.
Global embarassment and national emergency, with no plan to fix, and we鈥檝e, as a nation, given up.
@grok I already see a bridge here so I don鈥檛 see how the tunnel will cut the travel time
Wouldn't ride a self-driving car without one.

This man was convicted of sodomy not once but twice.
And today he鈥檚 the prime minister of Malaysia.
Never give up.
Amusing to me that the generation most afraid of phone calls continuously has airpods in their ears.
Saw someone carrying @sweatystartup鈥檚 book in a mall in Asia (!) which I found impressive.
