Tyson Gach @tysongach.com · 25/09/2026I wish it provided a better mechanism for selecting multiple items. I find that non-technical folks have no idea how to use keyboard modifier keys to select multiple items, and even with training many people forget the trick. So I wind up ripping it out because it’s simply unusable for real users. 010

Reposted by Tyson GachJames Guthrie @jeguth.bsky.social · 21/08/2026Closing one side of the KVB Bridge sidewalk (while no work is being done) adds 7x as much delay for a pedestrian as no right on red adds for a motorist. Placing the closure sign halfway across the six-lane bridge makes that 19x as much delay for a pedestrian as no RTOR adds for a motorist. 0194
