Adding lanes doesn't reduce traffic. It's called induced demand. In 1 year new capacity (supply) creates 50% in demand and in 5 years it is 100%. You want less traffic? Stop giving roads away for free.

What a waste. If they just demoed it it would create a new neighborhood and everyone would just switch modes.

Probably. Probably unavoidable. I think I'd rather have Google doing it than Exxon. I'm excited to see how this pans out!

To those saying "a big company shaping cities is bad" - take a hard look at how American cities are shaped now and the big companies who influenced the relevant policies. You're going to find oil, car, tire, etc companies at

Very cool! Useful to keep tabs on competitors and your own sites. I'd suggest adding some kind of Stripe branding to your payment form to make it a little more trustworthy.

They want something they can't afford... that the world can't afford/sustain. In my opinion the source for this want is equal parts marketing and subsidy. We actually did decent low density non-sprawl until after WWII. Find i

Choose a language, make an immaculate/by-the-book demo project and open source it on Github, shotgun apply to many jobs.

I agree. America has generally forced a one-type-fits all transpo strategy - personal autos. This is causing lots of problems regardless of the fuel source of the car - oil, natural gas, or electricity from the grid or rooftop.

Or we could build our cities to walk, bike, and ride transit.

It's more about gov't subsidy than personal preference. I hate driving, but my car is definitely not collecting as much dust as I'd like it to. It would be smart of us to have good bike infrastructure - compared to subsidizin

Things like shame and "taking lightly" aren secondary to interest rates - a quantitative pricing of the risk. If a gov't sucks at borrowing then their rates will be higher in the future.

Yep all true. There's probably not any snow below even _6,000 or 7,000ft_ in the Sierras right now because the last storm, which was warm/rainy, melted it. This is another reason why the next storm won't put as much water int

I'm curious to see when cities will start changing their zoning for this new reality. The most exciting to me is elimination of parking minimums - these add a lot to the cost of building anything and take up very valuable/well loc

While impressive - it would be more impressive in my mind to see the USA embrace walking, biking, and public transit in a meaningful way - rather than fetishize the wasteful consumerism that is "ludicrous mode".
