If there are bikeshare subsidies, they should be kept reasonable - say, no more than the rate for bus public transit, about $1.71 a mile nationally, or $2.22 per bike trip

Railroads may be quicker than canalboats, and a gas-lamp may be brighter than a candle: but it is only in terms of human purpose and in relation to a human and social scheme of values that speed or brightness have any meaning. -Lewis Mumford, Technics and Civilization p282

The question of growth vs degrowth is like the robber's ultimatum, "your money or your life!" Opting for more growth for the global rich ultimately yields neither 'money' nor life. nytimes.com/2023/07/03/busโ€ฆ

I trust that no one in the tech bro press will suffer a moment's shame for their years of boosterism for highly flawed, dumpster-prone electric bicycles, whose purveyor may be nearing their demise. CC @felonious techcrunch.com/2023/07/06/vanโ€ฆ

This article is aggressive journalistic malpractice. Illegal ebikes are a serious problem, but author Matt Richtel blames e-bikes as a whole for riders getting killed by cars on highways dangerous to bike riders. Wild that Richtel has the background he does.

Probably the most bizarre thing in this article (beyond camouflaging a leftist concession to YIMBY talking points as a refutation), is positioning urban sprawl as inherently affordable

This is too good to be true and I doubt much of a fine will be given. But even the threat is precious. eBay is so averse to moderating scammers, you can find sales of products that literally do not exist, like 2TB microSD cards thedrive.com/news/us-sues-eโ€ฆ
