Strange article from Strong Towns on "filtering".
Fundamentally, they do not believe in indirect spillover effects, where adding high-end supply can reduce low-end rents. Instead, we have to intentionally and directly target the low-end.

Really cool at the top of the WSJ homepage today:
"An experimental mRNA-based vaccine succeeded in preventing cancer from coming back or spreading in a study of high-risk melanoma patients, Moderna and its partner Merck said Wednesday"
Last year, an mRNA cancer vaccine was also shown to stop the recurrence of pancreatic cancer after surgery.
It feels like we're just starting to pry open the heavy door of a new field: personalized mRNA cancer therapies that teach the body to fight cancers after initial treatment

Musk continues to peddle the lie that no one has died from USAID’s cuts. His latest excuse? Private donors and NGOs could’ve filled the gap. But DOGE abruptly terminated 83% of USAID programs, leaving no time for a responsible handover. They didn’t care.
.@elonmusk says zero people died from DOGE cuts to USAID. The billionaire CEO of SpaceX and Tesla, in his own words, helped feed the policy to the woodchipper last year, when he was the head of America’s Department of Government Efficiency. In an exclusive interview, @zannymb, The Economist’s editor-in-chief, challenges his claims: bit.ly/3RNqFnH

This is the apartment building where there used to be a Burger King with zero units of affordable housing.

The idea that this apt building would be out of character for the neighborhood is laughable. It's 1 block away from downtown Urbana, on the same block as a grocery store.

Note to economists who think firms are smart. It took 30 years to figure out that 3 point shots are worth 50% more than 2s.

Anthropic says a Chinese state-sponsored group used Claude Code to target tech companies, financial institutions, chem. manufacturing companies, and government agencies:
"the first documented case of a large-scale cyberattack executed without substantial human intervention."

Jerusalem’s column today was a banger; basically the thesis is “obsessing over structural remedies can erode both our individual agency and the responsibility we have to indicate and convey social-normative expectations to the people in our lives.”
In which I admit my most embarrassing failing.

Longtime listener and reader. First time writer on @217Showers.

What do a collapsed highway and a forgotten state vote have in common?
They each hold a lesson for how school systems can move *before* they’re forced to.
