Guess which of these plastic strips in the Ikea kitchen get smacked the most

The original Far Side Cow Tools Cartoon by Gary Larson. A cow stands on its hind legs behind a table, staring blankly at the viewer from behind its heavy brow ridge. On the table are four crudely made tools: a lump, a lump with an offset crooked handle, a long stick with hooked prongs at the end, and a crude handsaw with irregular teeth. In the background a barn sits on a hill. Caption reads, "Cow tools."
43 years ago today, readers the world over opened their newspapers and gazed upon cow tools for the first time. happy birthday cow tools. you look great.

Astralβs momentum right now is staggering! Is there a precedent in other ecosystems where a small org basically levels up the entire toolchain in a few years? In any case I love to see it
I have a major piece in Bloomberg Citylab today. Should the US let transit fail, as Pennsylvania is already doing? And if not, what are the arguments we need to let it succeed?

This is a photo taken from inside a building looking at the ground outside. A metal railing tops the corner of a poured concrete wall. The apex of the corner abuts a curved concrete construction which is topped by a metal railing of a different design than the first. Overall it's a lot of metal railing for such a small area.
