Here is one that bicyclists really hate:

Don't ride on narrow back-county roads where you block the regular flow of traffic.

I used to live on one such road and the bicyclists regularly insisted I travel >30 MPH below the speed limit because of a long uphill section that was double yellow due to many curves and hillsides blocking the line of site for passing. Bicyclists would get visibly angry at drivers who were not willing to break the law and pass on a double yellow and also risk a head-on collision. It was among the most arrogant and inconsiderate things I've seen people do on a regular basis.
I've done my share of BMX, mountain biking, and winter riding (where minor wipeouts can be common).

My last commuting wipeout was a couple years ago when I failed to register a speed bump while going pretty fast. I hit it, my front wheel turned sideways, and I slammed myself into the pavement pretty hard.
Generally that happens in places where biking would be the ideal transportation mean (due to distances/weather/density) but the infrastructure is poor to support it. Give people safe means to move around and they will use it.

On the other hand, statistics show that bikes are comparatively much safer than cars when it comes to the safety of others. When a bike rider kills someone else, it makes the news. When a driver kills someone else, it's business as usual because it's so common.
> But, naturally, that list doesn't include all the times that a cyclist successfully swerved around the door and nothing happened.

It also doesn't include all of the times cyclists crashed into a door and got back on the bike with nothing but some bruises and a damaged ego. Or any times they crashed and received a noteworthy injury but didn't die.

Like with many safety statistics unfortunately the only data we have to work with is the most severe cases - we have a mountain of data on when things go wrong (deaths), but safe behaviour is invisible since its outcomes are never logged.

Regardless one thing is clear - if you want to avoid either cycling at speed into a person or a heavy metal object, or swerving wildly into passing traffic, always take the lane instead of cycling in the door zone.
I find a hybrid approach works well in these cases. Most of the time when I am cycling in a straight line where risk is low I stick to the side of the lane to allow cars to more easily overtake me, but at points where it is particularly risky, such as when there are parked cars (risk getting ‘doored’) or at an intersection, I will take a more primary cycling stance.

It’s important to share the road and be considerate, but not if it risks your safety.
I got nerdsniped hard by this. If I can find the data, I might try to replicate the analysis for Germany.

I learned that in Japan, it's quite common for neighbors to have the exact same address, if the entrances fall in the same number zone.

As always, addressing is a story that shows us that all our nice simple abstractions don't suffice. An address is not always street+house number.

Both are. I've done both for a long time, forcing everyone to go at 30 km/h in a 50 zone is inconsiderate. Not as inconsiderate as not being careful around cyclists when you drive. This looks like a system design problem to me. The needs of the cyclists don't match the needs of the drivers. This is why we are fighting over this. There has to be a solution, but I know nothing about civil engineering.
Just understand if you take up a traffic lane when a bike lane is right next to you, some cars will pass you then slow down to walking speed in front of you.

Hostility results in hostility, and you’re not surrounded by steel.

Exactly this. It is all about click bait to drive digital advertising. It is largely our own fault. We (by and large) don't want to pay good journalism. We want it to be free which means ads. NPR/PBS tends to have better and more balanced news but it is largely because of their donor/patron model. But to be clear, they are surely not immune. They are still run by people who are judged by views and reach and other eyeball metrics. We don't really want news anymore. We want our preconceived notions affirmed (we like to be "right") and we want to be entertained. Unfortunately, we get what we've asked for.

No, actually they don't. In the time I've been there they've 10x the size of the company. Maintained majority control through multiple rounds of funding. Significantly increased salaries. Provided a great work life balance. Etc.

Talking here from my experience. I didn't succeed much in making myself read faster, but when it's come to listening I've easily trained myself to consume most of the content at 3x speed and for some fiction books I can go even faster depend on who is reading and quality of recording.

This obviously wouldn't work for reading technical documentation, but if you watch some educational videos on programming on something you can also easily handle 2-3x when watching video lectures. Though getting used to high-speed video is harder.

Most importantly listening at high speed is super easy to learn. You just starting listen some podcasts or books at 1.1 and gradually increase the speed by 0.1x each time you certain that current speed is comfortable for you. In two weeks you'll certainly handle 2x with no problem at all.

PS: My personal record is listening whole The Expanse book at 4.5x, but it was only possible because I was just laying with my eyes closed and enjoyed the ride. Of course I only listen at 2-3x speed when doing something at home or walking outside.
I was just in London, and while the boxes were nice the lanes were terrible and overly narrow. The drivers were homicidal compared to drivers in NYC. I wouldn’t say it was a positive experience.
Fonts would be served over the same HTTP/2 line as your main content though.

That's pretty much always faster than a new TLS handshake, regardless of roundtrip.
It’s also good because Google almost certainly uses data from Fonts for selling ads. I’m much more concerned about that than the theoretical uses by the US Govt, though I’m not a fan of those either.

I don't think most people in cars would think about the helmet, unless they themselves have spent much time thinking about cycling.
I always can tell who the drivers are that also cycle, they try to give you much more space.
I imagine trying to make yourself as visible as possible is more beneficial than not wearing a helmet.
Humans and our ancient immune system are not evolved for living in the hives we call cities. Cycling (and the constraints of this transportation mode)will lead to a healthier, more robust, more productive civilization if we design for it. Cycling first should be our design directive.
I think they are basically an attempt at form of "issues/tracker bankruptcy" -- we have too many open things here, leaving them all open like we're going to get to them all eventually is a fantasy, and is overwhelming and makes it harder to find the ones we might actually address, so trying to algorithmically close the ones least likely to be actionable is just trying to make the situation more manageable.

I think it's a desperate measure -- if any maintainers are seeing it as reasonable management technique rather than desparate measure, I think they're making a mistake. It has a lot of downsides, some of which you outline, I agree with you. It also generally raises user frustration, leading to even more adversorial relationship between users and maintainers, which is what the OP is about and I think part of what's going on in this "issue bankruptcy" situations too.

Notably, Rails just turned off their auto-closer for Pull Requests (not sure about Issues), with this commit message from a maintainer:

cloud work for the maintainers, in practice it discourages contributors

contributors motivation, so while I'm disabling this feature of the bot

the number of PRs in check, but celebrate the work contributors already
did instead of ignoring it, or dismissing in the form of a "stale"

A rare case of bug that works in favor of people.
Browsers don't use cross-site cache anymore (so if 2 sites are both using google fonts you don't get the speedup) but I think browsers still cache content from request to request for a domain.

Additionally, a CDN will let that content be closer to your customer, so even if it wasn't cached with the magic of CDNs it should be faster than one origin server.
I don't really care that they don't write "unfinished alpha" in big letters (although it would be nice if they did).

I care that they claim it has "no undefined behaviour", "as fast as C", "has generics", when these things are simply not true.

To use Ante as an example again, they literally have a checklist in the README, listing what is and isn't implemented yet.
Yeah, I know. It's just that specifically "cagar" sounds so informal and slang-like, those words tend to vary a lot through generations.

The laws are for public roads (public in the sense of "you can drive there without driving through a gate of some sort"). The same places where all other traffic laws apply. That includes bike paths, but excludes most hiking paths where you would want to drive a mountain bike. Mountain bikes often don't come with light or a bell, and if you want to use them on public roads you have to spend about $12 to fix that ($2 for a bell, $10 for battery-powered lights).
For anyone else reading this, hundreds of wipeouts is many standard deviations away from the mean. As a point of comparison, I've been biking for 10+ years and bike commuting for ~5 of those. I've had exactly one wipeout, the first time I wore clip in shoes.

This is the key takeaway I think, so many online businesses spend so much time trying to push me into their app, or accounts, or subscriptions, that they forget they're supposed to be taking my money. There are plenty of services I would have loved to use, but ya'll made it so damn hard to give you my money and order your services that I gave up.
I really think we should build better infrastructure for bikes in the US. this has been done in so many European cities even over the last couple of decades/half century. It is very difficult to have cars and bicycles coexist without them both having their proper lanes. Especially with cities like Boston I really hope this can become a reality.

You sure sound like a driver who owns the road. Nobody expects you to pass on a double yellow. You are supposed to slow down as needed to stay behind the cyclist until it is safe to pass.

>>>> An additional fact like this is riding without a helmet can actually make surrounding drivers perceive you as more dangerous, end up giving you more space, and there by make you actually safer.

This seems to be a widespread belief, but I don't think it's plausible, for a couple of reasons.

First, I doubt that most crashes occur when motorists have had time to make a reasoned judgment about the safety of the cyclist. Being passed too close by a car is only one possible crash scenario. In many others, claims that the cyclist "came out of nowhere" or was "invisible" come to mind as being more likely indicators of the real hazard.

Second, as a cyclist, I would not perceive a cyclist without a helmet as more dangerous. I would know that other factors are more important, such as the cyclist's situational awareness and bike handling skill. In fact I am perceptive to whether a cyclist is controlling their bike safely, not that I pass them any closer because of it.

I've been a daily year-round bike commuter for a couple decades. I regularly wear a helmet unless I'm going 2 blocks from my house to the store along a particularly tame neighborhood route, which brings up another issue about safety. I've read this article, and it usually gets thumbs-up by cyclists on web forums. But in addition to its excellent study of crash scenarios, one piece of advice lights up at the bottom of the page: *Avoid busy streets.* You can't get hit by a car where there are no cars. I'm lucky to live in Madison WI, which is gradually building bike infrastructure into new street designs, and has a number of nice bike paths. But it also has a network of neighborhood streets that can get you a pretty good ways without having to worry about traffic at all.
Well considering the US hasn’t conscripted anyone I doubt “that” is the reason.

Not every book needs a detailed reading of every word. If you are reading poetry or a key technical book, sure, you will need to focus on each word but there are lot of books where either you can assume lot of filler (business books, light fiction etc..) or where you are familiar with the subject matter that skimming works best. You can always narrow and focus in small sections if needed. I suppose the real lesson is to not feel guilty of skimming as most books are not worth the time to do detailed reading. The other major time saving is to bail out of a book without feeling guilty. If you frame your repulsion to skimming as wasting time you might find skimming more acceptable.

Some years ago an FT columnist assessed that even the most voracious reader can possibly only ready 5000 books in their lifetime. You should be thoughtful on where you want to spend you focus on.

I assume the PR describes the thing you are fixing anyway? (It better if you want it to have a chance of getting reviewed/merged!)

I don't see why you couldn't just file an issue with the copy-paste of that description, and then immediately file the PR too with a proposed solution.

I don't understand this issue/dispute. I don't understand the problem with filing an Issue to correspond to the PR, it doesn't seem to be any significant extra work or change to the desired workflow of the person who "just" wants to file a PR.

Am I misunderstanding the issue?
Two simple ways:

1. Read more

2. Use a finger or bookmark to help guide you.

Speedreading techniques or consuming too fast just seems redundant to me. While I’ve been able to comprehend a good amount at a fast speed, it just isn’t enjoyable.

There is a solution! Protected cycle lanes!

Keep cycles, cars and pedestrians physically separated. Inside towns and cities we should be looking to give up road space for cars, to put in dedicated cycle infrastructure.

Dedicated cycle infrastructure keeps cars and cycles separate, makes cycling safer, and most importantly more accessible and friendly.

Every additional cycle on the road during rush hour is one less car. If removing a car lane reduces the capacity of a road segment by 20 cars, but causes 50 additional to swap their car for a bike, then you’ve just created an 30 cars of capacity on your road.

That’s just the start, a bike lane can easily carry 10 times more people than a car lane, and requires basically zero maintenance. They don’t get pot holes because cycles weigh so little their damage to the road surface is practically unmeasurable.

RDP is not that different from networked X11 as you think it is. RDP originally also transmitted GDI commands, just like X11 transmitted X11 commands. RDP can also remote only a single app (it is called RemoteApp), it is not bound to remoting entire desktop. Actually, Wayland apps running under WSLg use RDP underneath to integrate with the Windows desktop.
What would you propose as an alternative? Many such roads are the only route available.
It's an issue because you have to replace the text.
I mean, you don't have to start with 0, nor does the fact that we had more bison emitting (for the sake of argument, although given all the deforestation, petrochemical use, and other agricultural processes involved in sustaining modern cows I'm not sure it's a given, especially when taking a global view) more methane in the past excuse the damage of the methane emitted by current cows.

We could have had X units of CO2, and Y units of CH4 produced by bison under the past era.

We've eradicated the bison, replaced them with 1/2 their number in cows. We now have X units of CO2, Y/2 units of CH4 produced by cows.

This is still producing more warming than if we eliminated the cows, and went to X units of CO2, 0Y units of CH4 produced by cows.

The existence of the cows still results in more CH4, and more warming, than would be the case if we phased them out, no?

In any case, if we replaced the cows by food sources that produced less than X + Y/2 units of atmospheric CO2 and CH4 respectively, we're better off.
I'd much rather take a low-speed door impact than a high-speed grill impact.

(Same as when you're landing too fast in an airplane: rather continue braking and make a taxi speed tree impact at the end of the runway, rather than open the throttle and end up making the same tree impact at takeoff speed and a few feet in the air.)

But this is why I "swerve" well ahead of parked cars so I can make a smooth, planned transition to the next lane rather than an abrupt sudden one. 99.7 % of the time it turns out to be unwarranted, but sometimes I glad I did it.
You could work your way through some of the "Linux Programming Interface" by Kerrisk.

If you shut off your internal monologue and read by just looking at the words (instead of vocalizing them in your head) you can dramatically improve your speed and not lose any value.

It's like reading music, you just look at it and understand it. I think slow reading speeds might be a function of how we're taught to read, because when you learn music etc it's entirely different.
Maybe you just have no self respect?

I'm sure that would go down well, I mean what better way to make enemies at your university than by publishing critical reviews of your colleagues work in a public press release. A better idea would be to have the anonymous peer reviews published as an addendum to each paper, that would be fun. Also highlight whether or not the work was published in a 'private club' journal with lax standards or not. Maybe interview the lab techs as anonymous sources to see what kind of standards the lab really operates with? Do some investigative journalism? Cue furious PIs demanding the entire media relations department be fired...

University media relations departments are just not going to to point out flaws in the work of their own PI-led research groups, they're in the business of fluffing their reputations, because that means they might get more students, more grants, more positive media coverage, etc. It's a business these days, isn't it?

I agree that Reddit pushes too hard to get people to use the mobile app.

You can always pull into another lane to overtake like you would with a slower-moving car.

The only situation I can see a cyclist making a difference like this is on an uninterrupted country road where it's dangerous to overtake.

In any urban area the time lost to waiting behind a cyclist will be negligible compared to the minutes lost stuck behind cars at every red light.
