Looks like tariffs are coming for robotics and industrial machinery "Any company that imports robots, machine tools, or the parts that keep them running now faces a defined window before tariffs or quotas may follow."

Join us this Sunday at 10am at the corner of JFK and Fairmount.
We've just published our latest newsletter with an invitation to join us and @bikejc for World Day of Remembrance this Sunday at 10 am at JFK & Fairmount.
Also some updates of improvements – JCPD moving violations 📈 – as well as ways you can help: mailchi.mp/safestreetsjersey…
To that end I think a high volume debate about it right now is a good thing. Keeps people informed.

Windshield POV legislation.
Hard to be a fan of McKnight with proposals like this, but Walker is probably worse. tapinto.net/towns/jersey-cit…
Currently Jersey City is gridlocked because one road is closed. A car dependent city is extremely fragile. Bikes and pedestrians rule.

I'm so glad Haley Stevens self immolated. There's long been a feeling on the left that dems would rather lose than win with a leftist. Seeing the entire institutional democratic party circle the wagons around Abdul should be a good reminder that dems really really do want to win.
The VC model in manufacturing is very dangerous. Overinvestment and crowding out is real in a field with tons of small barely viable participants
Discussed this with a bunch of folks now, but it really does feel like there needs to be some funding mechanism somewhere between VC and PE for many of these new manufacturing companies getting started/built...

“Please make our streets more dangerous!”
The Hoboken City Council was informed that the Grand Street Bike Lane Pilot Program is about to expire and therefore be halted without further action during after a roughly hour-long discussion at Wednesday’s meeting.
"Director, a thank you to you for being so open and honest about this. I really do appreciate it, especially tonight talking about no authority from the administration to keep this without council approval."
Please take mine @JerseyCity
The city removed a “strategic 5%” of the 1,300 bins available to pedestrians. Many residents are crying foul.

Huh, not seeing the Democratic infighting yet. Is that on Bsky or just wait another 24 hours?
