- Comment on In New York City, Drivers Who Run Red Lights Get Tickets. E-Bike Riders Get Court Dates. 1 hour ago:
Electric vehicles like scooters and the like is what I meant. Mopeds and bikes should be following the rules of the road like any motor vehicle. I believe fully electric scooters are not street legal and can’t be insured. Bike couriers exist everywhere, and should be following the rules of the road too, but rarely do. Cars and their drivers are little better, but theres an entire arm of legislation that governs them where as none really exist for any other mode of travel?

Yes, they are currently unregulated and not street legal, so if you break the law, you face the consequences. Motor vehicles have their own statutes, but etransportation does not yet ha e anything, and I’ll bet automotive manufacturers will continue to fight to keep it that way so people continue to buy cars instead. What should be done about it? I haven’t a clue.

As in all types of research, yes. Some of it proves to be a good idea and gets wider adoption, some of it falls by the wayside. No one can predict which one it’s going to be until the dust settles, so yes some money will get “wasted” but not in the same way as say, a politician’s salary where they spend all their time stopping things from happening and don’t actually do anything or achieve anything. That’s a waste of taxpayer dollars.

- Comment on Very water-resistant chalk for asphalt? 2 weeks ago:
Why? The whole point of chalk art is temporary. How are you going to clean the non water soluable substance you use? Chemicals? More permanent stuff is called paint, but it better be on your private property. The city does not want to immortalize your child’s brilliant art display.

Of Microsoft? That’s like business 101 my dude, and mostly why business schools should be burned to the ground. The system we have stifles innovation and promotes greed. We fucked.

Nah, biscuit is the proper term. Look it up. Aren’t these just corporate factory macaroons though?

Oh no?! It developer’s choices vs purchaser’s options. Who will win, it’s a mystery only time can solve. Just kidding, we all know who the courts will side with, as it is never “the people”.

- Comment on The Mayor of Calgary, Canada, just received this letter 2 weeks ago:
Let’s read this study about how adding more lanes and roads just makes more congestion, not less and how car alternatives are needed for the future of transportation to arrive. Like, oh I don’t know, Bike lanes and increased Public Transit infrastructure. Now, let’s throw it in the Garbage and go back to what we’ve been doing unsuccessfully for the past 75 years.
