@MCDuncanLab this is the voice we need in the world 💪🏼
@humantransit so excited for this! Your book had a big impact on how I think about, well, human transit. And I was a daily RTD commuter for years. It’s been sad to see that organization struggle recently (as is my own recent neglect of public transit).
@middleclasstool simcity and its ilk?
@jay yikes!

@jay that’s funny and a little scary. I assume they’re doing the cat thing and pretending everything is normal.

Here's a true fact: nobody hates meetings.

What people hate are badly run, inefficient and unnecessary meetings. They hate working under untrained, undisciplined managers.

Meetings should be short, sharp and essential, but you can go a whole career in tech without ever experiencing that.

@newsguyusa not a good take, sir. Your implication that many died due to the nuclear plant being hit is misleading at best (1 person died years later due to radiation poisoning). Yes, many people died due to other circumstances, and that matters. But it’s the job both now and then of people like yourself to clarify the narrative about what caused what.
@newsguyusa Edit: the journalist updated his post to make it more accurate. He still bundles up the number of quake+tsunami victims (23,000) and the number of nuclear meltdown victims (roughly zero) and ignores Iwate and Miyagi for some reason, but better than nothing, I guess.
Unless your child has some mobility issues, I dont think parents should be allowed to drive cars within 3 blocks of a school at drop off or pickup
