There is a link to the North America file, where all those referenced stories can be found.


Got it, didn't realize they were all in the same file I guess.


Such a popular trick that it got a song written about it

Say what you want about BBEdit no longer being useful in the modern era, but whenever I have to work with a multi-megabyte file that my IDE chokes on, BBEdit can open it no problem.


I’ve used BBEdit ages ago, but these days SublimeText is fine as well. And perhaps even better (again, not sure since I haven’t used BBEdit for ages).

From my experience SublimeText handles large files fine, but I never really tried to open multi-gigabyte size files.

I love SublimeText, it’s my favorite text editor and also multiplatform, so I have the same experience and tools on macOS, Windows & Linux.


The killer feature of Sublime for me is cross platform. I am stuck in Windows at work, and I have a Mac at home. I don’t need to have to think where I am each time I edit text.


Nearly all the research code for my lab is written in BBEdit.


yeah I never use BBEdit day to day but I have it installed in my drive for those times where I have to wrangle big files.


nope, it has a REST API. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/weatherkitrestapi

I know people who are already using it in random python scripts and whatnot, e.g. https://sixcolors.com/post/2022/06/adding-apple-weatherkit-d...

Ok then. Better to have lead with that if it's going to be a central topic in the article.


Write your own article then.


It's the second link in the article and part of the header abstract.


The second link in the article is the Cloudflare blog post and I'm not seeing a header abstract on my device, just a title and text.


Third link, (my bad) with the abstract | header | opening being that part above the first sub heading.

Point being, it's there in the lead.


MetroCard was also created and run by Cubic, nothing new here.


If memory serves Cubic did the initial RFID readers for BART, after BART finally gave in and joined TransLink/Clipper. They were way slower than the readers every other transit agency used.


Cubic (still) runs and maintains Clipper as a whole, and most other systems like it in the US. They didn’t develop Clipper at first, but have been maintaining/upgrading it for most of its life.

The support/call center is Cubic, most of the readers are built by Cubic, etc.


Right. I don't remember the full rationale as to why Cubic was brought in, but I do remember BART dragging their feet on working with ERG and instead opted to go their own way (EZ Rider).


They did have it in Safari, and they took it out. There was a webkit bug open since 2015 asking them to put it back in, finally closed earlier this year.


Road Guy Rob did a video recently about a failed edge lane road experiment. Seems like a good idea to me as long as car traffic isn't too heavy.

I think the big problem is nobody knows what the heck they’ve encountered.

If you do it naturally people can figure it out: make the road very narrow but technically wide enough for two cars and people will hug the center naturally.


Just don't draw any lines and even on wide (>2 cars) roads people seem to hug the center pretty naturally (IME, there are probably cultural differences between how people drive in different places that matter here).

The strange part about this road is that there were so many lines by the edge of the road, that's legitimately pretty confusing. I'm not sure if it's confusing in an unsafe way, but it's definitely uncomfortable.

I'd love to know if someone has a link to someone knowledgeable comparing "all these lines for edge lanes" to "just don't draw anything".


I suspect lines really are only needed when you want to fit maximum lanes in a given space - many of the four lane roads here would turn into one lane each way without lines.


Yeah, I think the "North American" way to make this design coherent would be frequent sharrows markers, low speed limits, and no other lane markings. The sharrows markers would make it clear "yes cyclists are supposed to be there" and the lack of lane markings would make it clear "shift left as you need".


most emission from ICE racing (at least in the high level series where they do a lot of traveling) is from the planes and ships that transport the team members and equipment, and I imagine that's the same for Formula E
