It baffles me that Americans don’t properly fund their public broadcaster
Jeff Geerling had a video recently about the state of RISC V for desktop. https://youtu.be/YxtFctEsHy0?si=SUQBiepSeOne8-2u
Diaspora exists, but it’s small
But there cannot be a full renaissance without challenging progressive political power, which, unfortunately, has risen in Toronto.
Swing and miss by NatPo. Not that anyone should expect much from an opinion piece from any of a conservative American hedge fund’s papers.
NIMBYs can come in any political stripe and must be countered everywhere.
There’s grains of truth peppered in throughout this piece but it’s light on quality sources.
Cities will have to become denser mixed use places. More car dependent suburban sprawl is not the answer. It’s been proven not fiscally sustainable.
Tenants’ unions are a thing. So are cooperatives, for when the tenant union decides to kick out the middleman landlord and manage the building themselves.
Not as much as they hope it will.
Electric or not, we need less cars in cities, not more. Rather than making the next generation of mildly more sustainable but just as dangerous and space inefficient road congestants, we should be thinking harder about how best to meet people’s mobility needs in more safe, sustainable, and effective ways.
People need options not more car dependency.
Those resources are better used to build up public transportation, (e-)bike shares, sidewalks, and the accompanying infrastructure to go with it all, with seamless handoffs between modes.
Electric cars are here to save the auto industry, not the planet.
Cities don’t tax only based on the potential for what land could be doing, but instead include taxes on improvements to the land as well. As a result, there’s incentive to sprawl rather than pressure to densify.
Driving sucks. If you can, help advocate for alternatives and better planning!
No matter where people live in cities, everyone should have options for walking, biking, or taking public transportation in safe, accessible, and reliable ways to get around.
Zoning needs to change to allow more density and mixed use, bringing people closer to their needs.
From the article:
The existing open-source plugin, which we’ve been working on for a number of years, has served as the building block for RustRover. This plugin will remain open source and freely available on GitHub and the marketplace. However, moving forward, we will be investing our efforts into RustRover, which is closed source.

Great for sidewalks, bike paths, and trains, but terrible for cars.
