There are hundreds of miles of bike lanes in San Francisco, making it one of the most bike friendly cities in America. But that wasn't the case until the 90s. The transformation was due, in large part, to two groups working without coordination: The San Francisco Bicycle Coalition – an advocacy organization, and Critical Mass – the name of a regular group bike ride. This week, reporter Azul Dahlstrom-Eckman tells the story of how these two groups changed the way people cycle in San Francisco, whether the city liked it or not.

One of the most important inventions of early humanity was the compass. The compass has aided human navigation around the Earth for centuries.
Despite being a critical technology in the development of transportation, it actually took centuries between the discovery of its underlying principles and its eventual use as a practical tool for navigation.
Even though it was discovered over 2,000 years ago, compasses are still a vital tool today.
Learn more about the compass and how it helped humanity find its way on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

One of the most fascinating areas of mathematics and economics is game theory.
Game theory involves analyzing competitive situations where multiple participants make interdependent decisions. In other words, the result will depend not just on what you decide but on what someone else decides as well.
Game theory has applications not just in games but in business, personal relationships, international diplomacy, and war.
Learn more about game theory and how it applies to different areas of life on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
