Got laid off as an app developer earlier this year, and job hunting has been extremely fruitless. Currently fighting the urge to buy one of these and just sell coffee by bike.

I love how Google spotlights these AI results that put up blatantly bad math.

Not every hardware trip needs a trailer (or a car/truck). Most of the time, a milk crate or pannier can handle the job quite nicely! If only they would install bike racks so I wouldn’t have to lock to a tree. @thewaroncars.bsky.social

Quality bike beg button install by Louisville Metro.

Costco run with plenty of room to spare.

Bike camping 🚲 🏕️

Due to logistical challenges today, I drove in to work instead of riding my bike. Probably 2nd time in a year. But the amount of shit I am getting from people who wouldn’t even DREAM of biking to work is getting old very quickly.

"So don’t make any long-term bets on getting your checks on time, keeping your lights on, buying a home for the first time, or enjoying Yosemite. Don’t assume all the things that work now will still work tomorrow." www.wired.com/story/doge-w... thank you @wired.com for staying on top of it all

A couple Bros in Christ next to me at Sunergos, discussing Dave Chapelle and how they like him but don’t think he’s super funny. And the height of irony, while discussing this very famous comedian, debating each other on whether or not he is still “canceled.”

Barely into Dry January and already looking forward to February 1 and my next shower.

Is there perhaps snow in the forecast??

Geometry hates cars. @thewaroncars.bsky.social jalopnik.com/cars-are-the...

At my daughter’s School of Rock performance and, unsurprisingly, the dad who saved like 1/4 of the tables at the place for people who showed up 2/3 through the show is also a 1-3 clapper. No class. No style.

Game designers, please take note of an oft-overlooked feature that has already made me like the new Indiana Jones game: LARGER FONT SIZE OPTION Too many games have me squinting at the screen from the couch!

I wonder if cybertruck drivers are ever like for the price of this car I could've bought 3 that do not look like this

Keep screaming about the plans for the 4-story apartment building that’s replacing the parking lot because it’ll ruin the character of the neighborhood. If we didn’t make natural density illegal, this wouldn’t have come to such a tipping point. www.kentucky.com/news/politic...

Had a minor crash today. Thankfully, I was on my bike. Instead of $1000s to repair a car (plus an extra depreciation hit), it will be <$100 to fix my brake lever. Seems like a good trade for a couple small bandaids.

Here’s my favorite pic of our dog when she was a puppy. Because it’s cute.

Why is it that every fucking grant or program or “initiative” in this damn town is for planning, and never for execution? Do you know how many goddamn plans we have that just get shelved? Use one of the existing plans! Make something happen!! For fuck’s sake!! www.transportation.gov/grants/ss4a/...

It’s pouring down rain and I have to bring a crock pot into the office today, so I will be breaking my streak and driving my car to work for the first time in about 15 months 😣

Holy shit I thought the “Fox News personality as Sec Def” was parody of how bad other picks have been. Who the fuck voted for this shit???

Insta post from wtf Louisville of someone right next to the exploded chemical plant. Considering the apprehension of the firefighters to approach, I don’t think I would be that close. www.instagram.com/reel/DCSQJmQ...

I find it very disturbing that first responders still have not approached the building for search/rescue.

Sudden power outage, followed by a shockwave about 1-2 seconds later in NuLu, and a huge police and fire response less than a minute later.

Explosion in downtown Louisville???

This is what having car-only infrastructure has taken from us.

I drove our car to the gym today and that's ok. My feelings on active transportation in North America are that, for example, bikes are not an 'all or nothing' choice. Do what you can, when you can, and don't feel bad about your choice when the built environment doesn't support a better decision.

Changed the rear wheel of my ebike myself this week. Had to buy a specialty single-use tool, which I dislike greatly, but in the end it was a nice learning experience and it gave a great feeling of accomplishment. And if anyone needs to use a chain whip, I have one now.

If you see this post a concert photo you took.

highly recommend people read this report. it is invaluable.

Every single thing this guy proposes is covered like “well, actually, it won’t be so bad because…” and then the actual policy ends up being SO MUCH WORSE. Stop sane-washing him!! He is not sane!!

Best website feature ever

Despite being in a deep red state, I had so much optimism when I stepped in the ballot box yesterday. All that’s left right now are bewilderment, a deep sense of dread, and the feeling that I should have done more.

Over a year ago, I said I would leave Twitter when Elon bought it. A few people said I was being overdramatic and that nothing was going to materially change. In retrospect, I think it was an even better move than quitting FB in 2020. www.nbcnews.com/tech/social-...

My 8yo got sick and is running a fever just in time for Halloween and little dude is CRUSHED that he’s missing trick or treating 😢

Dude at Mammoth Cave complaining about how it took a few million dollars to put in 2 miles of walking paths in the cave. Yet we are spending over $10M PER MILE just to *repave* a section of I-65.

Overheard a 30ish-yo guy in our coworking space talking about pipe tobacco and somehow, undoubtedly knew right away that he’s the owner of the Cybertruck parked out front.

I think my mushroom is done growing.

Cool mushroom in my yard

Impressive shrooms in Cherokee Park

To the stupid driver who was trying to pass me while I’m biking about 40’ before a stop sign with an oncoming car turning towards us, so I put my arm out and yelled “don’t be stupid!” To which your reply was “YOU’RE NOT A CAR!” Yes, that is the point. Also, you’re fucking stupid.

The most unhinged psychotic drivers always get mad if you don’t also drive like an unhinged psychotic.

“The practical risks of AI are not that they become super capable thinking machines. It is building complex systems around machines we falsely assume are capable of greater discernment and logic than they possess.”

Not one of the elders of the elders, but I’ll take first 10%!
