Sure, in areas without robust transit, transit is a problem. But I'm responding to RandallBrown's assertion that there's a persistent last mile issue in areas with robust transit. …

Author, here! Happy to answer any questions.

If you enjoy thinking about the legal implications of this, you'll almost certainly enjoy the first entry in "Legal Systems Very Different From Ours, Because I Just Made Them Up": …

The article devotes a paragraph to saying as much. This line of criticism reminds be a bit of the debacle around the I-enjoy-coffee-with-my-husband-in-the-garden tweet: https://www…

I don't think that having two numbers will help much. I'd guess that most sim-swapped cell numbers are leaked in data breaches or acquired through data brokering. Enrolling a numbe…

I, for one, would very much so like to live in a row house, but they're nigh illegal to construct in my city.

It's an area of active development! I'm hopeful the situation will improve significantly this year. For tracing suspended Futures, I've worked on a few approaches: 1. If you don't …

Oh, I should add a note about that. Fortunately, it's quite easy to tell Rust to generate debuginfo even in release mode.

Oh, whoa, I'm the author of this! Happy to answer any questions.

We've made a point to ride all the lines, but mostly ride Red Line (with a dash of Green), plus the Providence commuter rail line. Our rides tend to be during evenings, so the cars…

1) Amtrak isn't light rail. It definitely doesn't smell like piss. 2) Your characterization of light rail does not remotely resemble the reality my partner and I have experienced i…
