Hemonystraat, Amsterdam in 1985 and today
In q985 the road is wide, with two lanes and cars are parked nose to tail along the left-hand kerb in front of tall brick and stone buildings, with more cars parked around the junction on the right. Today the road has been closed to traffic altogether and replaced with a red cycleway, with a wide paved area beyond it. Two men ride side by side along the cycleway past red and white bollards. Mature trees and rows of parked bicycles have replaced the parked cars on the left, and more cyclists cross the junction in the distance.

NEW: Is it true that Japan loves AI because of Shinto? Not really. In fact, a slew of surveys show that use and acceptance of generative AI is much more muted in the land of Astro Boy and Doraemon than recent headlines imply.

Made some progress on windows for my relaxing building game Island Architect! Placing windows now makes actual holes in the building! Will also make it possible to vary the window style, add details and more! Also glass roofs for greenhouses. #screenshotsaturday #indiegames #indiegamedev

Endpaper illustration I illustrated for "Tempest" by Victoria Aveyard, for the OwlCrate special edition.
Valerian Kane and Cat Rose from the historical pirate romance "Tempest". They're about 20 and both very good-looking. They're standing inside a ramshackle tavern and looking at each other with romantic tension.

So true: "Once our eyes are opened to all the ways we’ve prioritized cars over people, we can’t unsee it." Since I sold my car the way I see the world has changed. Cars everywhere. Fossil fuel burners (most of them, still), noise, smell, p-space they take, the priority they get at traffic lights. 🤓

A #WarOnWalking. A war on biking. A war on public transit. A war on any transportation choice other than driving. A war on better cities. But a war on cars? Hardly. Cars still get most of the space, rights, budget, prioritization, etc. And any effort to add more choice is immediately attacked.

Ginnekenmarkt, Breda in 1978 and today
In 1978 the street is packed with cars, parked and queuing nose to tail. A lorry and a couple of cyclists are stuck among them in the distance. Today the street is now paved in brick with no cars in sight. A woman rides an e-bike towards the camera down the middle of the street.

Eerste van der Helststraat, Amsterdam, in 1982 and today. A street once dominated by parked cars to a car free place for people, with children playing, greenery and cafés making use of reclaimed outdoor space. This is what’s possible when we choose to redesign our streets for life, not storage.
Split-screen comparison of Eerste van der Helststraat in Amsterdam in 1982 and today. The historical black-and-white photo shows the street with parked cars on both sides of the street, a cyclist and pedestrians. The modern colour photo shows the same street transformed into a car-free public space, with trees, plants, outdoor seating, pedestrians and children playing hopscotch.

A screen grab of a blue sky account suspension directed at DPad.fm account over a stalking claimThe reason for the maximum level suspension is a post that can be summarized as "It's infuriating as a career developer to see smug AI users condescending to anyone who doesn't mainline AI akin to 'You're too stupid to appreciate heroin'"

The liveable, inclusive, prosperous city isn’t a final destination, but a never-ending journey that continually seeks opportunities for improvement. That mindset—of continuous refinement rather than complacency—is what distinguishes great cities from good ones. Westeringsevest, Delft: 2015 vs 2026.
