I have no idea what any of this means.

I feel like I am at odds with the scheduling one so much. If I time box all these little things, I get so distracted and I hate switching. I would rather go all in on something for…

More like, everything gets build because someone wants to get promoted.

Why? Won't this result in vastly inferior products?

I feel like you are injecting facts with a lot of assumptions. How do we know a human driver would have taken longer? What if the human would have seen the bike 200 yards up the ro…

Are these forever chemicals an actual big deal? Do we have any numbers on how many people or animals they injure or kill every year? How about projections into the future? What kin…

Pedestrian bike path is a bit of an oxy moron. Bikes and e-bikes generally aren’t allowed on the sidewalk or where people are walking. I agree with that. A bike trail seems fair ga…
