One of our suburbs here in the Midwest has the most roundabouts of any US city, and they’re adding them to the suburb I live in and others relatively rapidly. Even replacing a “Michigan left” that everyone hates with one soon (wish they’d done it right the first time!).

People still complain about them ALL the time but I don’t care, I like them and the intersections where they’ve been added don’t back up like the four-ways used to (often BADLY). Bring ‘em! But also, learn how to use them people, it’s not that hard: if you’re already inside the roundabout you have the right of way until you leave. May be nuances with multiple lanes and such but it’s mostly ONE RULE!

Submitting and getting a talk about it accepted at DEF CON seems like a good way that worked here. Of course having name recognition like CDC going back to my childhood also helps :-)

My M2 Max MBP with 64GB RAM can have a decent chunk of apps open while handling 1500 open browser tabs in about 50GB of RAM with no swap. As an example. Used quite a bit of swap on my M1 16GB previously.
