Can you link me to evidence for the death cults? It sounds so wild.

Depending on how we're defining "congested" I think I could get on board with this.

I will do some googling about this. Thank you.

Unless you're suggesting doing this for regular taxis, I don't see why this should apply to Waymos.

Can you link me to this data? I love a good demonstration of cars' geometry problems.

I am for buses and I am for fixing these problems. Banning Waymos might help buses move more smoothly and fix the problems you are talking about. That is not the only option for fixing those things, and comes with the downside of keeping more-dangerous humans driving.

The problems described above are annoyances but Waymos are about 85% safer in terms of injuries. So you are saying that you prioritize the avoidance of irritations over the prevention of injuries to human beings.

These are all technical problems that can be solved without banning Waymo. Even the deadheading; that is a technical problem that dispatched taxis already try to minimize but seem to be better at.

I don't think it's a coincidence that Madrid is infamous for high rents and has an apartment vacancy rate somewhere between 0.5% and 3%. I also don't think it's a coincidence that a country which makes it hard to build new homes has very few construction workers.

I know it's orthogonal to your point but I have to ask: What are the analogous safety concerns in accounting?

I have not had a lot of different desk jobs but the bad one was at a small company and I get a pit in my stomach whenever I interview at one now.

Sentimentally, I agree with you. This guy, however, applied for a job as a public face of a sports team. Probably should have deleted those tweets before sending in his resume.

Hmm. Unless your friend is crazy strong I am out of ideas

Also not my strong suit but I want to indulge in this mystery. Is the reaction arm for the roller brake bolted to the chainstay?

What kind of brake does this bike have on the back wheel?

Could there be a crack here? I don't see one in the picture of the other side but this is suspicious. (Also you should know that I am not a mechanical engineer)

My pet hypothesis is that this partly to blame on wealthy metros not allowing enough housing. We saw in 2025 that the lowest rents fall the most in response to new housing supply, and so housing scarcity pushes low-wage workers out first. Then you get a shortage of low-wage workers!

You should get a little better grip from lower pressure, that's been my experience.

That being said, don't put so much weight up front that steering gets sluggish at low speed.

Distribute some weight onto the front fork; with too much weight on the back wheel and not enough up front steering can get squirrelly. Also, if you are inflating your tires to the max pressure, try lower pressures. It'll get you a smoother ride and so better control that way.

Would you like a little off-road riding advice? I have some based on bike packing and riding a cargo bike similar to yours.

My city's senior planning staff are absolutely like this. Junior staff are better but their opinions don't trickle up to public visibility.

Water and wastewater finance and pricing : the changing landscape | WorldCat.org

I am a big proponent of tap fees to solve this problem. It means the utility bears the initial costs of upgrades if there is not an existing reserve of prior fees. This book which I have only read a little of is tap fee skeptical and might have ideas: search.worldcat.org/title/806017...

"This new edition updates all areas covered in the previous editions, and expand topics to include: major trends in the water and wastewater finance and pricing; management structures supporting finan

What would this do that regular tap fees can't (I'm thinking specifically about water and sewer). Private electric utilities charge service connection fees that presumably accomplish the same goal.
