8 minutes agoHe repeats the same talking points,affordable food, safe street and affordable housing. He's dilusional if he doesn't see why he's losing members. No self awareness at all. Just pathetic. Keep him as Conservative leader so we can keep a Liberal government!

Third places.
I've said that for everyday shopping you don't need Amazon. All you need is a grocery store, drug store, and, yes, the 3rd place is Canadian Tire. But it occurred to me while walking home tonight that you can do all your Christmas shopping at CTC if you are so inclined.

If we want to create a more affordable, livable Seattle, we need to design for *reducing* car volumes. This is the only way to meet our climate, public health, vision zero, accessibility and housing goals. Our fight to design highway on-ramps with LESS capacity epitomizes why it's still hard.

The notion electric cars would scale rapidly in the United States, and that autonomous vehicles would quickly dominate our streets, was pretty much accepted wisdom in ~ 2018.
It was completely mathematically illiterate. Wishcasting from carbrains who can't bring themselves to look at the problem.
e.w. niedermeyer@niedermeyer.online
I realize folks don't want to hear this, but we really need to re-examine the conventional wisdom that we can shift the entire US market to pure EV with massive batteries and some light consumer incentives. It's a nice thing to believe but the evidence doesn't add up.

We've got to figure out how to break this self fulfilling doom loop - projected car traffic volumes requiring us to maintain lane capacity for future traffic volumes that materialize because we've maintained lane capacity

I am not trying to minimize the tragedies that have occurred lately but, meanwhile thousands of people get killed in car related deaths and no one blinks. These thousands of deaths are an ongoing crisis but they are just numbers to most people even if they know the numbers.

I am wondering now at the deals to get them off the lot. Better I own an Electric Childcrusher 9000 than somebody who doesn’t obsessively drive the speed limit
e.w. niedermeyer@niedermeyer.online
The F Series is the most popular vehicle line in the country, and the electric version (Lightning) showed the problems with this approach: they weighed 6-7k lbs, lost roughly half their range when towing, and Ford lost tens of thousands on every one. This is not a recipe for success!

Aside from baking, I've also been having some coding adventures.
A lot of tool building so far, but I'm excited about what I'll be able to do with them.
so far I've got a voronoi diagram generator, a class that generates walkable terrain as well as a "planet", and a marching cubes implementation.

Given we are a "major" city without an airport shuttle or adequate transit system, it's difficult to respond to this with anything other than "diddums"
PD City Hall (Paul Dechene)@pdcityhall.bsky.social
EDR says that the 50% budget reduction in M13 would cripple them. EDR would cease to exist & Regina would be only major city to not have economic development arm. #yqrcc

Three things that live in my head when my friends start complaining about high taxes and inadequate services living in Seattle and Washington State are how much of the budget Seattle gives to its police Department, how much of our infrastructure goes to freeways, and the resistance to upzones.
