    I'm glad they are open, but I am unlikely to be buying any donuts at $18/doz.
  2. That kind of delay is absurd. How long could it...

    That kind of delay is absurd. How long could it take to get a tow truck from any point on the Q-line to any other point? Whatever caused this delay should be addressed.

    But also, there should be...
  3. Lack of workers doesn't make the buildings...

    Lack of workers doesn't make the buildings vacant; the spaces are still leased. It can well be a sign of future vacancies though. I have no special knowledge of this, but if you look down to the...
  4. All audits aren't created equal. A normal...

    All audits aren't created equal. A normal external audit doesn't actually check to make sure that everything in the accounts matches reality; it doesn't even make sure that everything in the accounts...
  5. Yes. It's interesting how words work. If they had...

    Yes. It's interesting how words work. If they had said "black people had started to riot" or "black people had started rioting", it would be incomplete, but reasonably accurate. But "balck people had...
  6. That date is the start date of a different...

    That date is the start date of a different project. I doubt it has anything to do with when the current project will end.

    Presumably they will say some combination of:

    1) It's not real; just statistical manipulation.
    2) It's real, but temporary for some reason or other.
    3) It's just a tiny part of the city that is...
  8. I have the greatest respect for Cheez-Its. I...

    I have the greatest respect for Cheez-Its. I simply don't think it's a good idea for me to eat them in vast quantities.

    Lead poisoning and bad food. Maybe throw in some alcohol.

    But seriously, the dose makes the poison. Most adults can probably use some amount of cannabis without any problem, but some people [[as...

    Originally May 2024. Not surprisingly it has slipped and now I see either "Summer 2024" or "August 2024". DNR website says August 2024. Either way I don't think there's a precise date.
  11. Could be true. I suspect a lot will depend on the...

    Could be true. I suspect a lot will depend on the pace of change. It's a big deal to go from losing population to gaining population, but if you are talking lowish-single-digit thousands/year, mostly...

    This was already happening, no? Census numbers 2010 vs 2020
    Black 82.7% -> 77.7%
    Non-Hisp White 7.8% -> 9.5%
    Hisp 6.8% -> 7.7%
    Asian ...

    The STRESS program didn't start until 1971. The Big Four was around well before that.

    I agree that they generally do, but usually because they increase the width of the lot required for each home. in this case probably not so much as the lot sizes were already in place, which I think...

    This isn't the right way to look at it. I'm sure there are a lot of people for whom an attached garage is important, and they probably aren't buying these houses. But you only have to find some...

    The Tuller was pretty awful by the time it was demolished, but I can see how it could have been redeveloped. The Statler would have been an enormous project; it was a huge hotel. Even if it had been...

    It started to decline long before that. I don't go to malls very often, but last time I was there there was still a fair amount of stuff.

    This might interest you:...
  19. It's also only a couple of blocks from the...

    It's also only a couple of blocks from the Pewabic Pottery, so you've already got another arts anchor in the immediate vicinity. Certainly hope they have success.
  20. That's a big project. I hadn't heard about it at...

    That's a big project. I hadn't heard about it at all. Thanks for posting.

    Anyone know how it's being funded? That can't be cheap.
  21. I await fully automated luxury communism....

    I await fully automated luxury communism. However, unlike Simeon, no one has promised me that I'll live until it shows up.
  22. Is there anyone who has spent five minutes...

    Is there anyone who has spent five minutes looking into it who doesn't think auto factories have become steadily more automated?

    You didn't claim that. You claimed that Toyota and Tesla are...

    There certainly have been huge crowds for the fireworks, but that's just one night. In aggregate this might well be the biggest. I can't think of anything obvious that would have been bigger.
  24. But they aren't. They are ten to thirty miles...

    But they aren't. They are ten to thirty miles away from being Detroit. You know what is 1000 miles away from being Detroit. Dallas.

    Yes it would be better for the city [[and honestly for the...
  25. Tesla is currently in the early stages of...

    Tesla is currently in the early stages of building a plant in Mexico which is expected to employ about 6000 people, which doesn't sound 100% automated to me. I wouldn't doubt that at some point there...
