I think you’re being a tad uncharitable with your interpretation of “no roads”.

Arguably they mean “no roads for private vehicle traffic”.

Pedestrian plazas and walkable areas demonstrably result in higher foot traffic for shops. Nobody has the slightest issue with the garbage truck cruising through to pick stuff up-they’re not a big cause of gridlock and congestion. This is a pretty solved problem in parts in Europe.

Agree, MTA must go bankrupt and restructure its liabilities, contracts, and overall cost structure to start from clean slate.

Only after thorough and deep cleanup it would gain taxpayer trust and be on a get-well plan to be more sustainable financially.

It would still operate in maintenance mode in the interim, while going through restructuring, NYC has no lack of financial restructuring professionals in downtown

You often want to look at the widest stuff as close to the bottom as you have appropriate context for, then follow up by working upward from that to try to arrive at an explanation.

Some recent-ish examples:

- I was optimizing some code whose main tasks should have been networking and ML. There was a suspiciously wide chunk with a name indicating something about date times. An bit later we had a solid 10% improvement win.

- I had some code with strange behavior under load, undergoing some kind of a performance phase transition before the CPU (or other normal resources) were anywhere near maxed out. I grabbed a flamegraph under normal conditions and under load. The `main` loop was wider, but that's not helpful. Walking up the graph a little bit, next to some function the code was supposed to be calling there was a block named sched_yield which was huge and didn't exist in the normal trace. The root cause was just a strange (broken) concurrency mechanism in some underlying logging code, causing logging to pile up and hog all the resources past a certain request threshold.

The colors are a red herring. They exist just to make it easier to keep track of where you are in the graph, much like how ragged text is easier to read than justified.

Height is sometimes interesting. It represents a deep call stack. I find that happens most frequently in error handling code, and if something is called enough to make its way into a sampling-based flamegraph it's often worth taking a peek at for other reasons. Runtime is a function of width though, and height doesn't play a role.

Another point worth keeping in mind is that a lot of the benefit is in being able to quickly fine a plausible explanation for the performance issue. If you find that your application is spending most of its time in `read` calls, perhaps you'll want to do less of that, perhaps you'll want to submit a perf improvement to the kernel (unlikely?), but what you definitely want to do is look at the next level above the offending code, then the level above that, .... What you'll find depends on your application, but the difference between being slow because of locking and synchronization is very different from error handling or just executing the happy path a ton of times, and that insight will help govern your next actions.
idk, I honestly think congestion pricing would still be a good idea even if they just lit all the toll proceeds on fire. I almost wonder if it was a political blunder to couple "reduce cars in lower manhatten" with "more funding for MTA" in the first place.

??? SpaceX is certainly the most open space corp out there, by a mile. I mean they're still a private for profit company that has to follow ITAR rules, but compared to their competition, they're extremely open. Anyone following Starship development can see that. Just the fact that they even gave a tour (twice!) to the Everyday Astronaut, with Raptor closeups and everything... Imagine Blue Origin or Boeing doing something like that. Yea, right.
>when housing is built first there is a lot of demand for transit infrastructure

Not if it’s low density housing, which it will be if there is no transit.
There are not more bike lanes than real roads and to think that's even plausible shows how totally warped your understanding of reality is. most people in nyc do not drive, you're not advocating for "real people," you're advocating for a narrow, high-income subset of the city that you personally encounter

there's definitely an echo chamber in urbanist-type spaces, but your notion of "real people" is even more out of touch.
Great idea and execution, enjoyed it.
Would like to see this compared to some kind of placebo survey question - is general satisfaction just lower over the past few years in those places?
2017 is quite a long time ago, especially in terms of how long smartphones have been around (and arguably even in terms of how long cell phones have been mainstream).

The US is way behind here.
After a quick peek at the bike layer in Google maps, you'll find it demonstrably false that there are more bike lanes than roads. I live in NYC, too. Congestion pricing will help the vast majority of New Yorkers (and NJ/CT commuters) who do take transit.
Most people don't start out thinking like computers

> it would affect every resident of the city via higher prices on goods and services

I find the math on that claim highly dubious. The toll for a truck is set to be $36 at peak times. $9 non peak. And they get up to $20 credit towards that when travelling through one of the tunnels, as many do. When I think about the amount of goods that can be carried in a truck and divide the $36 minus $20 or $9 across all those items… how much are we really talking about here?

I ask the question earnestly because I don’t know, but at a cursory glance it just doesn’t seem like that big of a deal. Some drivers might even be quite happy to pay if it means they don’t spend hours stuck in traffic!
I don’t understand what you are saying here. Are you saying that these “wonderful” restaurants were doing their own delivery until Uber eats etc came along? If so, why couldn’t they just continue with what they had been doing?

> Those entrepreneurs who ran successful businesses for decades were forced out of business

If you can’t adapt to a changing market then you may not be much of an entrepreneur. Regardless, I’m not sure how much delivery services affected these businesses vs “the rent is too high”.
Insurance is the Major healthcare fraud,and is widely accepted. I pay a monthly fee to a company for a "service" which actually is on the company's interest to avoid providing. Insurance companies would spend $500,000 in lawyers to prevent paying me $500,001 .

Worse yet, in some cases I am required by law to contract this fraud.

I had to use one of these services once after I lost the MFA app for a domain registrar when switching phones. I wouldn't be at all surprised if my driver's license has been compromised from that company's S3 bucket (or wherever they're stuffing the images) since then. Regardless I was super-annoyed to have to jump through that hoop. The subsequent emails from them pleading with me to re-enable MFA have since gone straight to the bit bucket.

That's not necessarily true. It depends upon the severity of the allergy and the percentage of people with mild vs severe allergies.

If you have a mild sensitivity, the added sesame may be below your threshold. Now you know that the sesame is controlled so you can always buy the product.

The problem is that the people with severe allergies expected that the new FDA rules would have manufacturers significantly retool to avoid cross contamination. Everybody with two brain cells to rub together predicted that they would absolutely not retool and would just add trace amounts of the contaminant.
Congestion pricing is about taxing blue collar workers (plumbers electricians and such), who cannot afford to live in Manhattan and have to use vehicle for work.
The congestion pricing fees were slated to go into capital programs, not operations. So that would be a very weird way for the MTA to attempt to hide their unsustainability, given that the money wouldn't be available for operational costs.

I don't particularly disagree about the city deserving the money instead. But that would have to come with MTA giving NYCT back to the city, and that is unlikely to happen.

Healthcare business are fine, the Healthcare industry in America is larger than the retail industry and accounts for 17% of the GDP. Americans spend more per capita on Healthcare than any country, and get worse outcomes. No one is scared about doing business in the industry because the profits are enormous.

The idea of just letting fraud go without prosecution in this industry is really hard for me to understand... Did you read the part where someone thought they were taking HIV medications, but because someone was profiting off fraud, they instead took anti-psychotic meds and were unconscious for 24 hours? We don't want to investigate that happening, because it might be bad for business? The business which is wildly thriving?
That involves me phoning something in and going somewhere. Conveniences cost extra.

Congestion pricing has little impact on the unlimited number of cars (unlike regulated taxis) that can enter Manhattan and drive around for hours for Uber/Lyft.
FDA has some culpability, but the fraud was so effective Medical Schools where teaching students to prescribe more opioids.

Perdue Pharma effectively hacked the medical system. I think the real takeaway is there’s likely more of this going on than we realize. The common decongestant phenylephrine being no more effective than placebo comes to mind. Without the mass deaths there’s apparently little to stop modern snake oil salesman.

Perhaps the FDA needs to conduct direct hands on oversight of medical trials? I mean if there’s billions to be made and little chance of prison the incentives get crazy.

> The private sector would ruthlessly fire people, cut and restructure costs. I see none of this happening.

Again: please read the history of the IRT and BMT. I think you'll find that "cut and restructure" is not an unknown practice in the history of NYC's mass transit, and that it didn't have the effects you're thinking it might.

> If you have a mild sensitivity, the added sesame may be below your threshold. Now you know that the sesame is controlled so you can always buy the product.

If you can buy the product with the added sesame you could also buy the product without the added sesame, could't you?

Nothing changes in that case - while in other cases the added sesame creates a problem. It doesn't improve the situation for any consumer (leaving aside pricing).
One way to do it is for the transit authority itself to build a large amount of real estate next to or over the new station and lease it out. The costs are front-loaded, though, so a large amount of financing (like selling bonds) will be needed.
He is speaking about Starlink, not SpaceX. The whole sentence wasn't phrased correctly but that's what he meant.
That is something that’s been on my mind. There are so many conflicts and issues around the world. Why do people care about some? For example why is Israel and Palestine dominant when the Russia and Ukraine conflict has far more deaths? Or any of the numerous lesser known conflicts around the world. I agree social media is the medium but I wonder if there are other factors that make a particular issue worthy of virality.

Sure it does, if they enter and leave the CBD. Cars coming and going from the UES and UWS, for example, would be subject to the charge.

(But at the same time: I don't think anybody has claimed that it's a panacea. Congestion pricing can be both good policy and still have gaps.)

Have you taken a plane lately? lol.

Airlines: notorious for over booking, running down planes on maintenance schedules, failing to pay staff properly, providing increasingly worse service to passengers whilst simultaneously jacking up prices, Airlines in my country had to be bailed out over COVID, they’ll leverage the full power of their bottom line to prevent new airlines from entering their market and competing with them, have been caught adjusting (read, increasing) prices on customers based on device and browsing habits.

Airlines are close to the worst example I’d have given for “can do things better”. Basically the only reason plane travel is as safe as it is, is because governments had to get the regulation stick out and force them to do the right thing.

> The private sector would ruthlessly fire people, cut and restructure costs

The private sector would fire people, make everyone else do triple the work, increase costs for consumers, do even less maintenance if they could get away with it, and exit with a fat check the first chance they can.
Source? It absolutely has impact, as shown in other cities which have implemented congestion pricing.
Both what you say and what the article says is right.

To the article's point, in urban areas, increased density often happens even when mass transit isn't expanded (which then often leads to ever worsening traffic). So, for urban areas that are organically becoming denser, mass transit becomes ever more important, which was partially the article's point in the section you quoted.

Also, to generously read the article, it seems to be making two related points, but not actually imposing a "one should follow the other" ordering that you read into it. The full paragraph:

> Globally, that is nothing notable—in most urban cores a majority of workers take public transportation for work and daily activities. Increasing the density of jobs, hospitals, restaurants, homes, schools, and more is key to the agglomeration effects that make cities such economic powerhouses, and as density grows mass transit becomes essential since it can far surpass the maximum throughput capacity of even the largest roadways.

It is saying two things: 1) high density is critical to be an economic powerhouse and 2) mass transit becomes even more essential as density increases. That paragraph isn't inherently saying mass transit should follow densification (vs preceding densification). Ideally you build out mass transit in anticipation of densification vs playing catch up.

Anyway, to your point, it's absolutely true that building out mass transit is critical in attracting more high-density development (especially very high-density development), and critical in enabling high density development in places that otherwise might not attract that sort of investment.
What part is "dubious", exactly? There's a tax. It applies to all vehicles. You think that doesn't get passed on to consumers? I have a bridge to sell you (don't worry, it's a toll bridge).

You're just repeating the last part of what I wrote -- that the taxes would be low when amortized over a large number of items -- but ignoring the rest. The point is, New York does this all the time: yesterday a surcharge on food delivery, today a "congestion tax", tomorrow a "global warming fee" on electricity consumption, a "save the whales" fee on straws, or whatever else. The number of sneaky fees and surcharges and social-engineering taxes in NYC is enough to make even the most ardent liberal begin to resist. Eventually, you're paying $25 for a hamburger and wondering why you can't find staff for your store.

Look, I have no problem with taxes. Just be honest. Don't sneak them in and lie about them and pretend that they're punishment for New Jersey car commuters when most of the revenue will come from the people who live here, directly or indirectly. If the people want to vote in another billion-dollar sales tax for the MTA, great. Go for it.
all costs are passes through, but elasticity of demand and supply will lead to consumer/supplier splitting the tax in the ratio of their respectable elasticities.

fundamentally though it is NOT about reducing congestion, it is about stealing money from poor blue collar workers from outer boroughs, and handing them out to finance MTA's bogus overtime and 400k salaries for doing nothing useful.

while also enabling rich urban liberals from manhattan to signal their "ecology conciousness"

My partner makes fun of me for always turning the page with my nose and it makes me very happy to hear I’m not alone.

... now that you claim to know better, do you really think the basics are that hard?

They're really not.

We get coaxed into lots of bad habits by the allure of screens and white collar ambitions, and fail to receive direction against those bad habits in a world that universalizes aristocratic education in Shakespeare, electron orbitals, Kreb's cycles, and calculus, rather than in practical daily skills like cooking, gardening, meditating/praying, or carpentry, but all those things you "were doing with improper form" are easy enough that people had been informally teaching each other to do them plenty well for thousands of millenia.

Frankly, the article itself is most interesting for stating all the weird misconceptions the author had picked up in the first place.

I mean, PT's are trained to rehab specific injuries and disabilities, not to help gym bros address their vague and subjective sense of being kinda stiff. Obviously, he's not alone in it, but I'd love to hear where he got that idea into his head in the first place and accepted it so strongly that he feels like he needs to apologize for challenging it.
