This is a pretty poor argument to be honest. For a start you're misrepresenting the claim.

Cyclists are very aware of how car-centric the infrastructure of their country is and the vast majority of them are arguing for resident focused planning, along with cycling infrastructure that allows people who aren't well-off to do away with the expense that is owning a car.

You can't purposely design everything around owning a car and then use "poor people need to own a car" as an excuse against any kind of mass transit planning.

In the morning at grade school it looks like a bakfiets parking lot these days. There are easily 50 of them in all shapes and sizes, including two wheel ones (more maneuverable but tricky to ride and balance with a lot of weight in them).

When I was a kid a bakfiets was a huge affair, always three wheeled, essentially a small person powered truck, and in Amsterdam they were super common for people working on the various open air markets and to haul produce and freight all over the city. Specialty versions were used to sell fish and bread from. These were large, with a bed about 1 meter wide, 1.5 meters long and a frame that weighed in at 35 Kg. It wasn't rare at all to see people move house using a bakfiets.

We even had a profession called a 'brugop', someone who helps heavily loaded cargo bikes up the (many) bridges because you'd run out of momentum. Typically you'd get a dime for this and lots of kids made spare change doing this, but there were also adults doing it to live off.

Over time, as minivans became more affordable the cargo bikes dropped in popularity, there was a hybrid moped/motorcycle bakfiets for a while and then they disappeared almost completely except as promotional devices or curiosities.

Enter the Danish freezone Christiania where a bunch of artists and other people had the need for a cheap and environmentally friendly form of cargo transportation.

A birthday present started off a trend that spread amongst the bike friendly countries in Western Europe:

This is some seriously counterproductive absolutism, and I cycle everyday and don't own a car.
I have an e-bike and a couple that are friends of mine have one of those bakfiets, the video is 100% accurate. These friends of mine even sold their car after having the bakfiet for a year.

Of course you are much more limited on where you live vs where you need to go compared to a car, but the cost difference is so dramatic you can literally afford to move (especially in places where car-parking is not free). But you do need decent biking infrastructure because those things are not drivable in heavy car-traffic streets (especially with children or pets in the basket)

I myself live around 6km from my job and used to take public transportation to work, my (upper-end) e-bike paid itself in 2 years from not needing to pay public transport
And just like that, you've proven his point.

This guy doesn't run reds, I don't either. Apparently that's irrelevant because some cyclists do (and here's a bunch of anecdotes) so it's not a problem to harrass cyclists.

Right on!
Doesn't matter.

When I joined CS degree I also thought like you did.

Now looking at insane competition, the kids who can't write a real program if their life depends upon it, constantly getting better internship and job offers than me, I believe I was wrong.

No one cares.

People who interview are also likely Leetcode kids. So they will ask some obscure question from 14th page of Leetcode to flex, so the probability of passing is almost proportional to amount of time you grind.

If I have a chance to go back to year 1, I focus on Leetcode. Fundamentals be damned.

In this industry no one has an incentive to care about efficiency. If they did, we wouldn't be gambling with right candidate answering an obscuring question from some 10+ page of Leetcode or Hackerrank.

Now someone from outside India can reply to this with their usual justifications. To be clear, I don't hate DSA questions. Just pointing out as your leetcodes get harder, you tend to select people who do leetcode whole day than those who are good at DSA and also good at programming.

Edit: and yes, "if you're good at DSA you should be able to answer the obscure question". Dude obscure question will be LC hard or upper end of medium. The kid who does Leetcode 3 hours a day already seen the question and remembers the answer too, and there are n > 10 kids like that.
Pedestrians are not vehichles. I am specifically referring to a situation where there's traffic going one way on a road and slower vehicles are impeding on traffic behind them - in this case it's the responsibility of the slower vehicle to let the faster traffic pass in a safe manner. Seems like I've worded myself poorly here given that people are clearly misunderstanding me.

Yes, at intersections, as a driver, I will let bicycles and pedestrians cross first if there's a stop sign or the traffic is moving slowly. However, when I'm driving my Prius on the highway and I don't feel like doing 15 MPH over the speed limit, I will move over and let the soccer mom pass. 30 minutes later when on a mountain road, I expect the soccer mom and the cycling enthusiasts to do the same.
Interesting point of view. It shows how difficult it is to turn the industry and how "green techs" are indeed far from green. Fortunately some solutions like the recycling of phosphate in sewage just make sense in themselves in a global change of paradox. As we just can't have a sustainable agriculture if we're throwing the phosphates away without inserting it back at the start of the cycle.

All the replies here seem very strange for me as in the UK at least, the highway code says that we are entitled to be in the middle of the lane if we need to be, and actually turning right (read as left turn for US / EU people), we're supposed to be in the centre of the correct lane for that manoeuvre.

There are always some idiot drivers who think that bikes have no right to be on the road, and who'll pass dangerously close to you, sound their horn as they're passing a few inches away from you (and the distraction could easily make you swerve into them), complain if you take the middle of the lane, but open their doors in front of you if you stay on the edge, etc. On the whole though, drivers in the UK tend to be careful when cyclists are around, and I've never had any aggression from someone when I've been in the second or third lane to make a right turn.

As a cyclist, I also find it incredibly irritating when another cyclist runs a red light, not only because it reflects badly on the other cyclists, but also they'll probably be in my way a minute later, when I need to pull out further in the road to overtake them, as it's almost always the slowest cyclists who won't stop for a red light.
Smart is smaller than most cars made in 80s, and modern compact/city cars are still reasonably light. It's just that somehow SUVs became fashionable. I can't understand why.
They have done a great job, but ultimately I believe a tool like Go or Rust would work much better and the XML metadata format while standard is not very good. Would be nice to see YAML or even JSON. Kodi is my go to for the most part, but I will have to say Jellyfin is definitely more polished. It downloaded the transparent logo for the movie I was watching and displayed it so nicely when I started a movie. I remember Plex offering music themes when you were browsing a collection.. I wonder if Jellyfin does something similar already.

That's actually annoying problem with modern cars, in my case it's doesn't help much moving up to bigger cars though. I'm pretty tall, so if I'm in any of the front sets, the seat behind me become unusable. So a car that fit a family of four, because effectively a three person car.

For trips with four people we put our child in the front passenger seat, my wife driving and I sit in the back. That's the only way to utilize all the seats. There might be cars available that solve the problem, but not within our budget. I get why, but it is annoying that anything above 185cm is consider outside the range of car designs.

Edit: just looking up the CX-5, and I assume it's the Mazda. Those are useless, I can't even drive those, there aren't enough leg room behind the wheel. On the other hand the Hyundai i10 has plenty of space... Just not for someone to sit in the back seat.
Depends on the company and on what you negotiate.

You mean proprietary AMD drivers? (Only PlayStation 4 and 5 are based on FreeBSD.)
This "existence proof" line or argument is, IMO, totally disingenuous when applied like this.

If you think Google, amzn, msft or whatnot exist in a competitive marketplace like restaurants and refrigerators.... it's just foolish.

Adpocalypse was not something that happened to google. It was something Google did to it's vendors, content producers. Google just found a way to increase revenue. They are a monopsony in regards to content producers. So, they get to present a take-it-or-go-be-a-dentist proposition.

In any case, there is no "vote." Actual voting would turn out very differently.
Rust seems to need way more code optimisation than other languages to run faster/ at same level. For example Go is way simpler to write and is just fast without even optimising code. Rust is faster for sure but from what I see only if you really know what you do and optimise the code. Therefore I also wonder where exactly all this hype is coming from and for what exact reason to be honest because most developers won’t write optimised code in Rust (at least this is my assumption) and take advantage of it being faster.
If you commute daily (5 times a week) then you will see at least one terrible / dangerous driver in that time period.

Some weeks it can be really bad, several a day, some weeks it will be almost silent (but always at least one nutter).

The weather makes a big difference, for some reason drivers drive a lot worse in the rain and really hot weather, usually speeding / running reds and not checking mirrors more often than in overcast / typical UK weather.
I also want to bring into light that Jellyfin is not very secure either [1], its sadly not in a great place to replace Plex still.

You're falling into the exact same trope that the person you're replying to is admonishing.

Motorists running red lights, speeding up for amber lights, exceeding the speed limits, tailgating, dangerously overtaking and so on, is all so common as to be unnoteworthy. This doesn't justify cyclists running reds, but it should put it into perspective.
A big issue is infrastructure, which leads to frustration.
In many places in Europe, dedicated bike roads are built. Red lights are also much less used and often replaced with roundabouts.
If streets are built for a co existence, there is not need to fight about space.

Google: Amsterdam Bike Roads, to get an idea.

Ugh, checking that box signed out my server and I've yet to figure out how to sign the thing back in.

This kind of driver is the same that would accelerate towards you as you (legally) cross a road only to stop at a red light 50m behind you – a red light was clearly visible from where they were when they saw you. For them driving is just about their own emotion. The moment they see someone "who deserves it" their emotion takes over and their brain switches off.

People like that should have their driving license taken away, because they show that they cannot be trusted to operate a vehicle in a public setting.
Almost all e-bikes and cargo bikes have removable batteries. The bike is usually not worth stealing if you take the battery out (a battery replacement will cost more than the thief could sell an used bike for and it is not that easy to flip parts)

My e-bike is pretty expensive, but removing the battery, a good lock and insurance let me sleep easily with my bike outside

Although I would say the main reason to NOT leave it outside is rain and snow, it damages the gearbox and chain. If you oil regularly it alleviates the problem a bit
I did something similar. It puts my server to knees and takes something like a hour to complete, requiring all services to stop before I can run it. This is extremely unergonomic for me.

I have a feeling that you'll end up killing someone on one of these mountain roads with that attitude.

You wait behind them until you're on a clear stretch of straight road, and then overtake. If you don't have a clear stretch of road, you continue to wait behind them. Anything else, and you're putting either the cyclist in danger, or yourself and the oncoming traffic in danger.

Moved from Auckland (with fairly weak, unenforced jaywalking laws) to London and I've found that jaywalking is essentially required here due to how slow most pedestrian lights tend to be. Perhaps in places with stronger jaywalking laws, lights are timed in such a way that you don't have to wait too long to cross legally?
The solution is to build for bikes, pedestrian and cars to coexist.
Red lights are also an arbitrary solution to an non existing problem.
Yes, "prompt engineering" in actually a thing. People shares various tips and tricks on the internet to engineer their prompts for best results. Lots of trial and errors required.

It's literally the guidance that every police force in the UK work to, you need to leave a space of 1.5 metres between your car and the cyclist when overtaking at 30mph. It might be that our road lanes are narrower than yours of course.

See https://www.northants.police.uk/police-forces/northamptonshi...
The pattern:

-- A car squeezes past you at high speed
-- Less than 30 seconds later I pull in front of it as we both stop at a red light.

In fact, a car coming too close and knocking you off your bike is not a common cause of injury. It certainly makes cycling unpleasant though.

40% of non-cyclists in London say the danger of cycling is a significant factor in their decision not to cycle.

There is an interesting irony here.

This library is layered on top of a package called CrossTerm, which (on terminal systems, at least, but not on console systems) in turn emits roughly ECMA48 standard control sequences to do the cursor motions and whatnot. So the bottom layer is a terminal/terminal emulator that supports/emulates a (subset of a) DEC VT520 terminal.

But VT520s can already do what the library does. This idea of a static region and a scrolling region on the screen has, after all, been around in the world of terminals since the 1970s. There are DEC VT control sequences for setting left, right, top, and bottom margins; which specify a scrolling region and also modify scrolling and automatic cursor movement behaviours outwith that region. They're widely supported in terminal emulators because a popular compatibility testing program, vttest, makes them applicable to many tests.

So what is actually going on here is that because CrossTerm does not produce anywhere near the full capabilities of an underlying DEC VT, an entire library has been built on top of it to replicate stuff that actually exists already in the code of the terminal emulators and terminal firmwares. It should be noted that the termcap and terminfo libraries provide a change_scroll_region capability that can set top and bottom margins, and are superior to CrossTerm in that regard.

The curious should see the DECSTBM and DECSLRM control sequences and the DECLRMM private mode.

d/dt(wealth) = a * wealth - constant

This is the definition of an exponential and the definition of profit. If under your system you can profit in terms of proportion of a real, finite commodity which is essential for life (ie. control more land in proportion to how much land you control on average with a known strategy available to anyone) then your system definitionally has runaway wealth inequality and will necessarily end in violent collapse or totalitarianism.

The inclusion of the constant prevents entry to the system by people with less than a threshold level of wealth and skews the benefits towards wealth levels where the constant is small. The result also holds as long as the term on the right is polynomial or larger.
It sounds so hard to believe that streets became “much more dangerous” with “cyclists out there to kill pedestrians” that I looked for sources on the matter.

First result [0] says there were zero pedestrian or cyclist fatalities in 2019, with ping-term trend being increasing safety.

Another result [1] on how it was achieved: “cut speed limits, changed street design, removed space for cars and generally made life harder for motorists”.

Huh… sounds like cars are doing the killing…

As a cyclist who never runs red lights and always tries to communicate clearly where I am going next, there are many cyclists who don't know how to behave in traffic. Yet for every cyclist that behaves like that I will wittness a motorist who is equally wreckless. The only difference being, when the cyclist hits me, I might be hurt, when the motorist hits me I might be dead.
Fantasy writers hate the guts of our real world because it is far beyond their story about a poor kid discovering magic to set bushes on fire.
