Is that the same mayor who was pushing for RTO to prop up the downtown economy for property owners?

 

Some more insight from Cory Doctorow

Complete waste indeed. Nothing worthwhile that could be spent on instead 🙄 I wonder if Ford understands what an opportunity cost is. Actually, I don’t wonder. I’m quite sure he has no idea.

There’s also all this discussion about who will pay for this nonsense. Will it be the city or the province? The real answer is taxpayers.

Snapping Senator was one of my favourites.

I really hope we have decent data on traffic since the bike lanes were put in so that we can see whether removing them helps. Induced demand strongly suggests it will not help but the fact that Ford is doing this in the first place demonstrates that he is not influenced by evidence or science in general.

Ah, that’s probably what’s happening here. Thanks.

I don’t think there’s a notification that they’ve been added. So how would they know what to add a notification to?

 

When I create an event (with a notification) to a shared Family calendar, my spouse does not get notifications for these events. This is a significant deficiency. Is there a setting to correct this or is it a missing feature all together?

I can’t wait for the carbrain victim complex to conjure up complaints of being punished for speeding. In Ontario, there were drivers (publicly, in news articles) saying that they’re essentially too distracted while driving to keep track of the speed limit and their speed relative to it. This was their argument against speed cameras. Incredible.

In Toronto, Doug Ford is about to rip out bike lanes in a misguided attempt to improve traffic congestion. There is currently no evidence that the bike lanes made traffic worse and there is strong evidence that induced demand will return traffic congestion to pre-bike lane removal levels fairly quickly. Advertising preys on stupidity, but we’ve also got a stupidity problem.

I’ve got an EHX Qtron. It’s great but the footprint is pretty huge. I also really like the Sample and Hold mode on the Spatial Delivery. Maybe it’s time to make the switch…

 

I edited the title to match the article as the original one wasn’t as accurate as I’d like.

The picture in that article is definitely Xan Mccurdy…

I’ve used Sync for years and it’s great. I would be shocked if none of the other companies you noted here advertise on a Meta owned platform.
