Boston also has more "pedestrian scramble" all-way walk lights, a configuration less common in the rest of the US.

Don't forget to account for the total lifecycle in a building. Companies will fit out a new office space with company branding, furniture, etc. I suspect this happens far more often than myself making equivalent changes to my home&#x

How does Defender compare against other antivirus options? Perhaps it's the least bad? Obviously running more software will have a performance hit over not running software. Especially when it almost requires constantly inspecting t

That article does not describe any censorship abilities being granted to the ADL. It merely says that they're looking for solutions without stating what those solutions would be.

On the contrary, cars are the vastly more alienating vehicle. You're in a sound dampened box closed off from every single human being around you. You can't even quickly pull over to chat if you spot a neighbor because the thing

My kids' only complaint about biking in the rain (or snow) is that we don't stop at the playground on the way. They're in normal exposed bike seats as well, albeit wearing clothes appropriate for the weather, so they're

Second this! Ponchos provide unparalleled air flow and weigh very little compared to conventional rain gear. I'm also able to stretch mine over the front basket, protecting any cargo as well. I'm never going back to regular rai

That's pretty cool. Funny enough, I saw a mother of 4 biking today in Boston. It was raining and 50F/10C outside. She had a bakfiets with 3 onboard and a kid pedaling behind her. I don't think they were going grocery shopp

A suburban area that likely expanded because of 1950's highways that bored through the downtowns of cities, displacing thousands. Streetcar Suburbs, predating car oriented development, are way more walkable and not car dependent.

You're accusing me of a bias that does not exist. If you want to live in the country with a different taste of personal freedom, please be my guest. However, it comes with a cost that has been ignored for too long. Personally, I view

4 kids will fit after everyone has been dressed, got their shoes on, got their shoes on again, been lifted/chased into the car/bike. That's what I meant by "screwed". The choice of vehicle doesn't really matt

Are you thinking of full on rental like Enterprise or car sharing like Zipcar? Zipcar is pretty dang easy and it's what car-free people think when you absolutely need a car for a trip.

Large metro areas effectively subsidize the rural areas. Those millions of people have enjoyed amazingly subsidized civil engineering to have that car commute. If those commutes built-in the correct costs in land usage, gov budget impact,

And about the other causes of death, I want to see how driving correlates with obesity and heart disease. Then throw in depression and mental anguish that's endemic in the rush hour commute. Sitting for 3 hours in a car versus walkin

There are a lot of reasons Arizona didn't register on the radar much. 1) Arizona pretty much invited this problem through publicly denying oversight or responsibility. This is more a problem for Arizonians than it is for self driving

If you've got 4 kids all under 4yo, you're kind of screwed no matter what vehicle you drive. For biking, you'd probably be looking at a Bakfiets with electric assist plus a trailer. Presuming we've sufficiently eliminat

Because they're not ant roads, they're ant sidewalks? How can someone have such a blind spot of basic facts. Check out any street fair or large public outdoor event. People are going everywhere, despite a high density of people

Why does the report not put spotlight put on car crash deaths? Footnote links to data that says over 1/4 of unintentional injuries are from motor vehicle deaths, more than even overdoses. Add on that sitting on your butt in traffic o

I beg to differ. The US Notes and other flagships are not unlockable. I believe the only option was to get the Puerto Rican version which had US frequencies but the Exynos chips.

Don't conflate Apple's monopoly with Google's store. Anyone can go install F-Droid or Amazon or whatever on their Android phone. The only thing stopping people is satisfaction with the status quo and/or ignorance. Howe

I like how enforcing the law is portrayed as a nice-to-have here and offering to build specialty parking (in a city no less) is a hardship for the benefactors.

Forget the recent interest in "privacy" (competition). Who remembers the 1984 Apple Ad? It looks pretty ironic in hindsight now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=axSnW-ygU5g

Privacy is cheap to engineer because it involves not doing things or hiring more people. They won't allow actions, won't sync data, won't pursue advanced ML, etc etc. It's a clever way to say, "Keeping up with Chr

Viewed in a vacuum with no context or history, one could believe this is a bureaucratic oopsie. However, the long and clear history of the South and Republican disenfranchisement makes it pretty clear the origin and intent of this law. To

In the vein of "dangling money", elections are expensive to run and states would not want to double spend to follow their rules + Fed rules.

That's a really good question. You can't realistically go door to door asking people if they support their oppressive government. How do marketing folks get a pulse with public expression of opinion or survey results? Click rat
