You can never build enough parking spots if the cost of parking is $0. Optimally managed parking charges variably so that there is always about 10% of spaces free in a block. The entitlement of drivers to think they have a right to park a

The Interborough Express is one example. Going from southern Brooklyn on the water up to queens. Previous proposals had it also connecting to the Bronx. If you want to be really ambitious, connect Bayridge to Staten Island and continue on

Those people simply don't drive into Manhattan, parking is already $30-$40 a day, driving from Jersey means you are already paying at least a $15 toll (you can drive from Brooklyn, Queens, and the Bronx without paying a toll). An extra

Ok, if we are all tagging and promoting our own projects, check out mine. I created Buckaroo to provide a better table viewing experience inside of notebooks. I also built a low code UI and auto cleaning to expedite the wrote data cleaning

Another thing that happens is that social services (healthcare, DMV, probation office, welfare) move offices out of expensive transit dense areas to cheap far flung offices. Then local governments force bus routing to these places, it leads

Do you have a demo video? What are you using for processing (polars)? Marketing note: I'm sure you're proud of P Core/V Core, but that doesn't matter to your users, it's an implementation detail. At a maximum I&#x27

Also making it illegal to build dense walkable cities like we used to is the choice that causes many people to live in the suburbs. It isn't just a preference for suburban style living. It is more efficient to live in cities and should

What does require in person enforcement is making sure license plates aren't obscured, defaced, or removed. The left in this country needs to reconcile that enforcement of laws is a good thing. Matthew Yglessias talks about this a lot.

miles driven/person is also a choice that the US has made. Even in sprawling suburbia, most trips a person takes are under 3 miles, eminently bikeable, but the bike infrastructure and built environment sucks for that. So people drive,

It works in Marimo, Colab, VSCode. The js library that wraps community AG-Grid is also a seaparate package, though not on NPM because there isn't interest yet.

I hadn't realized you trained your own model. That's an important differentiator. How do you get training data of schemas in the wild?

This looks like many LLM assisted data projects which help and are flexible, but aren't repeatable and aren't fast enough to be interactive. Nao is a good execution of the concept. I built Buckaroo as a data table UI for Jupyter

So far as killing HP PA-Risc, SGI MIPS, DEC Alpha, and seriously hurting the chance for adoption of Sparc, and POWER outside of their respective parents (did I miss any)? Thing is, they could have killed it by 1998, without ever releasing a

Thank you. I'm putting the finishing touches on auto cleaning which integrates with the low code UI. Should be out today

I call it Trader UI vs VC UI. Traders want as much info jammed onto the screen as possible. VC backed companies use bootstrap, and want rounded corners on a pricing page with little actual information. I have been working on Buckaroo, a tab

I am trying to figure out how Switzerland has such a thriving freight rail system. My understanding is that not only do they haul bulk cargo (grain, cement, oil, coal), but also small packages at a much higher mode share than any other nati

Avoiding the barge operation means using the Selkirk Hurdle [1]. After the Hudson tunnels to Penn Station, the next rail bridge over the Hudson is at Selkirk NY, 147 miles north of Newark. It is about parallel with the northern border Mass

I'm as anti-car/pro urbanist as they come. I would totally support this. Speeding on highways doesn't bother me and is relatively safe. Speeding in cities endangers pedestrians and sees no enforcement. Stop signs aren't

I'm working on a problem that I think logic programming might be a fit for. And I already have a lisp. Anyone interested in giving me some feedback on a mini language for heuristics? https://marimo.io/p/@paddy-mu

Absolutely the height of truck's hoods has increased dramatically over time. I say this as the owner of a pickup truck (and a cargo bike). My 2000 2500 has a hood approximately at my belly button. Most current 1/2 tons have a ho

Another note about fire trucks. There has been a large private equity roll up of fire truck manufacturers resulting in longer lead times and much higher prices. [1] I was surprised when I specifically checked on Pierce that they are owned

This is true, and I try not to get eager about new browser improvements for this reason. But look at the porgress over time in browser abilities, it's astounding. The days are long but the years are short.

A bunch of questions. What shortfalls in Tabix/datagrip were you trying to fix? What’s the prime use case were you trying to improve on. What did users do before, how is that better with agx? What do you mean by data explorer? A Table

Thanks. I see how redo works. For larger datasets, real scripts are a better idea. I expect my stuff to work with datasets up to about 1Gb, caching is easy to layer on and would speed up work for larger datsets, but my code assumes the da

Is google colab slower than an equivalently powerful kernel running on a remote jupyter kernel? Are you running into network problems, or is it something specific to colab?

Wow. So are you saying that you can have some array on the GPU that you setup with python via CuPy, then you call to the webbrowser and give it the pointer address for that GPU array, and the browser through WASM/WebGPU can access tha

Writing and editting code is a lot more flexible, but it gets repetitive, and I have written the same stuff so many times. It's all adhoc, and it fixes the problem at the time, then it gets thrown away with the notebook only to be wri
