I've been biking them for 2 years and just learned a new word -- and a new program. H/T @modacitylife

Doorfietsroutes, thru bike paths, are smoothly aligned regional connectors between cities. Fun for tourists. Essential for #climate adaptation.

Regional #infrastructure requires incredibly hard political and engineering cooperation.

#Utrecht Province already has 150km (93m) of a planned 1500km #doorfietsroutes system. #Netherlands built 146km just in 2023.

Biden administration puts $830M to helping protect #infrastructure from #climate-fueled #ExtremeWeather

"Most of the funding, $621 million, will go toward 36 projects aimed at bolstering the resilience of existing infrastructure through things like improving draining, moving roadways, and lifting up bridges.

An additional $119 million will go toward protecting, strengthening, or removing at-risk coastal infrastructure like highways."

“When we simplify complex systems, we destroy them”

[Rewilding is] a fundamentally cheerful and workmanlike approach to what can seem insoluble problems. It doesn’t micromanage. It creates room for “ecological processes [which] foster complex and self-organizing ecosystems.” Rewilding puts into practice what every good manager knows: hire the best people you can, provide what they need to thrive, then get out of […]

It’s too bad #Biden told states to spend their excess COVID relief funds on paying #police and not on upgrading school air quality #infrastructure and prophylactic PPE like N95. #health #children

Cargo bikes are the future of deliveries!

I've been saying this for some time now. Never thought I'd see a US department say the same — but the NYC Department of transportation just did! And it's not the first time I've seen them post some really good stuff about bikes. This gives me hope.

Someone who is good at the economy please help me budget this. My family is dying.

(yeah, ok, it's fun to make fun of individuals like this, but it's mostly society who are at fault. no one should need to commute this far daily, just to survive, and no one should live in a place where it's not safe to bike. yet still many do, and that's seldom their fault.)

I'm still looking for contract work! Architecture for computer services and products of pretty much any kind, software and infrastructure. Rust and Elixir are strong suits, distributed systems as well. I'm available for short term and long term contracts.

No crypto.

"People keep dying in crashes on #Portland’s streets, 15 so far this year. [#transportation] #Infrastructure isn’t the only reason for that—but it’s the factor that’s most fully the city’s responsibility, and most directly under the city’s control, and we still aren’t doing as much as we can." #VisionZero #pdxBikes 💯 @bikeloudpdx members putting it on the record every week

Pro-Trump, election-denying #Republican Rep. Pete Stauber took credit for an #infrastructure boost - replacement of a huge bridge between #Duluth, MN & Superior, WI - only to be reminded by Pete #Buttigieg that he, Stauber, had voted "no" on #Biden's infrastructure bill:

I started rebuilding my #website using a #StaticSiteGenerator and aim at relaunching it this year. It will consolidate the contents of services I deployed to establish a #wiki and a #blog, for example. As a #FLOSS #musician I'd like to share not only the finished music, but also the #sources of it and those of my #infrastructure available via a #VersionControlSystem in order to make the whole process transparent and inspire you to follow this #philosophy.

The critics are right, rather than have seasonal chaos during to #engineerng works, the #railways & other #infrastructure could be repaired in the first week of January... the UK could have a state-defined #workingfromhome week, with those required to attend the workplace having subsidised travel laid on to avoid the disruption(s), and the whole thing co-ordinated by an active Govt. in the public interest...

Sorry, don't know what happened there, I think I'm hallucinating or something.... sorry

@tokyo_0

Again, I agree, except that the blood is already of insufficient distance now.

The cloud, corporate, and marketing #infrastructure still subsidizes / enables all of this independent #shortwave radio.

I struggle to grok a vision of the open-source #Fediverse as a place which demonstrates its values to those who most need to see, hear, and read anything about it…by defederating.

@q3k Does any regulator know of this #Sabotage of #CriticalInfrastructure by the #Manufacturer?

I'm shure these trains ain't exclusive to to one country and regulators from @BNetzA and @kartellamt@social.bund.de to @EU_Commission will likely be very interested in such deliberate acts of #AntiCompetiton, #AntiRepair and basically attacks on #PublicTransport #infrastructure done by #NEWAG to fleece customers!

I mean, this is next-level assholeism and makes #JohnDeere and #Apple look like #RightToRepair fans.
