One of my crank beliefs I cannot prove is that despite all of the obviously regressive past and present of the planning profession the left broadly speaking defends this stuff because it's the last area of public policy where everyone can be a cosplay Leninist central planner.

So true. It's a great way to realize that we ARE in community, and that our actions affect the lives and well-being of others. Biking for transportation makes it possible to see and connect with our fellow humans in a basic, organic way that driving a car inherently interrupts and corrupts.

Reminder that people routinely rate genAI as useful in *other* domains, but still poor in the ones they know well. Think about why that is.

This is absolutely nuts: hackers are hijacking high-profile Instagram accounts by simply asking Meta's AI chatbot to change the email on the account. Meta's AI does it, hacker gets password reset code, they're in. A staggering security issue www.404media.co/hackers-simp...

Hackers Simply Asked Meta AI to Give Them Access to High-Profile Instagram Accounts. It Worked
The exploit shows the extreme risk of offloading technical support to AI.

Dylan M. Taylor, a Senior DevOps Engineer at Credit Genie, pushed age verification PRs to systemd, Ubuntu, & Arch. He collaborated with two Microsoft employees to merge it. Lennart Poettering then personally blocked the revert & allowed the PR through. The surveillance state runs on unpaid simps.

There really is a deep strain of progressive thought that believes wanting the nice things that affluence affords you makes you a bad person and a proper object of government is to make your life more difficult.

I fought for safer Toronto streets after my friend was killed five years ago. Now Doug Ford is undoing that work
Premier Doug Ford and Transportation Minister Prabmeet Singh Sarkaria are actively dismantling the very infrastructure that so many of us fought to put in place.

Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

Pedestrian struck by motorist on Parkside a block from the speed camera that vigilantes kept tearing down that caused ford to remove them from all Ontario. Drive as you wish Ontario. Nobody matters. This is what you voted for.

I love cycling. There used to be a significant Strava heatmap in Gaza, and a load of riders posting their rides up and down the coast road. Even the memory of ghosts: removed.

If we want better fashion culture in the US, we have to lower the cost of housing and commercial real estate, support independent craftspeople, build denser neighborhoods, improve walkability, and get rid of overly restrictive zoning laws. Let kook culture thrive.

"Oh, but this just shows the nerdy, detail-obsessed nature of Japanese people," you say. Perhaps. But these publications can't exist without a distribution system (i.e., newsstands). And those newsstands can't exist without *dense walkable neighborhoods.*
