Dear Tourists, I want you to come visit our great city. But please, if you see the subway clock at 1 min, let’s see some hustle down those stairs.

My lease renewals says "e-bikes or other lithium-ion battery powered devices are not allowed to be stored in the unit". Damn gotta throw out my phone and laptop I guess.

Can someone please explain to me why dems are melting down at the idea of city owned grocery stores? As if the state has never owned a retail store before… I grew up in NH where the state ran all the liquor stores. Cuomo opened Taste NY, a literal state owned food purveyor.

I've been trying to vibe code a greenfield project. My success rate was super high at the start, but as the project has grown (still not super complex), the hit rate is plummeting fast.

No one I know under 50 rides a BMC. Maybe instead of wasting money on sponsoring a world tour team, they should pay their designers to make an actually interesting bike again.

The UX of this stuff is so trash. Why is the event description all the way at the bottom of the page. It should be the first thing you see!

Working on a tool to make finding and registering for bike events less miserable. Particularly for newcomers, it’s hard to know what events are a good fit, what registration prerequisites are (what’s a USAC, what’s RUSA?). Is it on BikeReg, Active, or the other platforms?

People who like Voyager, it's all just nostalgia... right? No way anyone who's watched this series can objectively think it's good.
