This is changing though. Cities are getting bikes and bike lanes. They’re building dense developments close to transit. ebikes + protected bike lanes + TOD might be the solution.

Honestly its so much wasted human capacity. Its not even the case that we don’t have enough: there’s enough food to adequately feed everyone. Its a logistical problem and when markets are left to their own they will obviously lead to situat

I don’t think it would make much difference either way if they were not involved in fraud. Its when you start to break laws that these things begin to matter.

So is Balwani. From what the trial has uncovered, it does seem like he had a powerful hold on her, when she was young and impressionable. Does that absolve her of guilt? Absolutely not. But its hard to see how any of this would be possible

You do tend to get a more lenient sentence if you have dependents, but its not guaranteed.

If it were a part of another agency it wouldn’t be able to prioritize issues the space force cares about. Its why the Army operates a sizable number of aircrafts.

For the people saying this would not be possible in the US VC centered startup ecosystem: the existence of this isn’t really telling us much about how other companies should be run. Keep in mind that US based, VC funded companies are compet

Interesting, i thought covid would at least compel the improvement of air circulation/conditioning systems in public transit.

A CS centric way of looking at this is that spending (brain) cycles exploring the problem is a necessary but not sufficient condition to solve it. Most people don’t believe they can and don’t even try. But the brain is very fascinating and

Wait really? For some reason I thought the transit was great in Cities in England… that would seem like the better option, no?

Bars and Pubs are a very “boomer” sorta place imo. Personally I do like going to them sometimes, but the people there are generally older. The younger groups are either there with work buddies or for some event, or are tourists. Notable ex

I remember that time quite well. These alternative apps would always fail over the weekends when demand skyrocketed. They just didn’t work, when most people needed them the most (drunk and trying to get home from bars/clubs). That re

No, maintaining a complex app with thousands of microservices doing a bajillion things still takes a lot (a LOT) more than 15 people.

Conversely, if more employers start hiring remote, we will have remote employers competing against other remote employers, which will increase compensation. And this is the reason I’m vehemently pro-remote. People fear loss more than they w

If you read the opinions they’re not very convincing. They’re making up principles to adhere to which did not exist before, and doing this for things that have broad support in the US population. So it is quite chaotic out of the blue kind.

“What does your OC rotation look like? If you get paged after hours, what actions do you take to ensure it doesn’t happen again?” This is my favorite question since it isn’t something you can generally lie about.

Not that it matters but I would argue that this sort of organization is strictly required to operate at the scale of armies in question. The wars in the previous ages are described as being a bit more “equal” suggesting there were equally l
