Got a flat tire on my bicycle, i think first time since 30 years? that's annoying.

Pedestrians and cyclists eager to get back on the Lower Don Trail are heartbroken to learn that much of the trail will remain barricaded until next spring — almost two years later than the city originally promised.

oooof. this incumbent running for re-election to the SF Bike Coalition board is literally a landlord lawyer.

I have said it before and will keep saying it. If the city was serious about improving the transit system then every councillor, the mayor and senior management at OC will surrender their driver license and use the system exclusively. They take the bus or LRT everywhere. No motorcycle, no taxi, no UBER, no staff driving them, no friends/family driving them. THEY RELY ONLY ON THE TRANSIT SYSTEM. The only alternate way is walking or taking a bicycle.
Don't make it to a meetin…

"On the Chinese internet, the country’s current predicament – slowing economic growth, a falling birthrate, a meagre social safety net, increasing isolation on the world stage – is often expressed through buzzwords.

There is runxue, or “run philosophy”, which re…

I went to the Australian Open tennis today to see Coco Gauff and Alex De Minaur ease their way into round 2. Gauff had problems with her serve and faced some spirited opposition from the unseeded Rakhimova.
Only blemish on the day was that I decided to remove my bicycle repair kit from the bike (bike parking was fairly crappy, stuck under a bridge) and that proved too much for the Security Theatre at bag check. I’m now down one very blunt multitool, which I asked the security people to…
There's an intersection in Cambridge on my usual commute that was substantially reworked to be more bicycle friendly, but they went and screwed up the light timing so that almost everyone on a bike hits at least one red light if not two. This also gives people the time incentive to do a non-standard thing to skip one light phase.
The video shows what is necessary to get a green and a yellow -- 20mph on an e-bike.

Imagine a world that we all control together, not controlled by oligarch or dictators, even indirectly. Imagine something truly collaborative. That world would be very different from our own. In some ways many of us could have a lot more opportunity. But in others, we would be restricted.
In such a world, we couldn't really have elite luxuries. Having such luxuries is only valuable so long as others do not.
> Unlike the vacuum cleaner, the radio, or the bicycle, which retain their use value when everyone has one, the car, like a villa by the sea, is only desirable and useful insofar as the masses don’t have one.
- The Social Ideology of the Motorcar
Imagine a world in which we think about luxury in a radically different way, not as something that only has value via exclusivity but something that enriches the lives of the owners more as more people have them.
What would living in such a world be like? Can you describe a day in your life?

I was thinking this morning, there should be more things like Goodwill, more thrift stores like that everywhere, for even LESS things going to landfills. Just people getting together, even as a trade or barter system, things like flea markets or garage sales-- people do some of this already.
Reusing things is so important, and repair, when possible-- I've been seeing some cool self-repair fix-it meetups on here, too.
As I was talking to my wife about it, and I remembered thi…

How do people record images for Mapillary while on a bicycle? GoPro stuck to a helmet? Is that stable enough? Does something in the pipeline do post-processing to correct for camera tilt?

Think concrete stuff like remounting a bicycle chain, not abstract stuff like critical thinking.
For me it was definitely going to places without modern navigation aids.
Just look at a map and write down the rough route and asking directions if I couldn't find it.

Awful to learn that a driver killed a cyclist Sunday night at Alemany & Naglee in the Outer Mission, District 11. Alemany is a high-traffic road with a buffered but unprotected bike lane, and this is further south than where Cayuga ends, so Cayuga Slow Street is not an alternative here.

The medical facility I go to for PT has a bike rack but it looks like garbage. It is bolted down but just does not look secure.
It's in the parking structure, so it's not exactly out in public... maybe that's a good thing?
But also, I can't ride my bike in the parking structure.

Binary partitioning with k-d trees is silly amazing. And with OSM data in radians and pretending the planet is a perfect sphere, scikit-learn's BallTree works wonderfully for quickly finding things nearby some reference point.
Like how far away the nearest bicycle_parking is for every building in a city.

Via Rail is better than driving an automobile. Quieter, faster, more legroom, don't need to store it somewhere. But that's like the absolute bare minimum for a rail service. It needs to come as frequently as an automobile too. And have bicycle racks.

Downtown Fake London (Ontario) is weird. Some of it is exactly the automobile-infested hell that @… routinely describes. But there's still quite a few people out here walking and biking in spite of the inhospitable conditions.
There's some recently-built protected cycle tracks that make me wish I could bring a bicycle here on Via and toot around for an afternoon of coffee shops. The network is super not-complete though. 🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️
