Each and every fresh snow reveals how much we’ve over-designed our streets and roads for cars, making them faster and more dangerous for everyone, and how much space we could reclaim for people and public life if we thought about street design differently. We call them #sneckdowns. #sneckdown

My latest in Bloomberg CityLab: Kansas City is a pioneer using microtransit, one of the hottest ideas in public transit. But KCATA chief Frank White told me microtransit’s costs are astronomical, 10x more than a fixed-route bus. He thinks the hype is overblown. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

You surely having nothing better to do on a Thankgiving night than reading about the new AWS SSO PKCE authentication flow! blog.christophetd.fr/pkce-aws-sso/ tl;dr: Contrary to device code authentication, it can't be used for phishing, but there's still no way to disable device code authentication

Does anyone have good resources that discuss authorization, particularly in a distributed system? Not like _how_ but when/where to do it. eg. do you authorize at every network boundary? only at the gateway? everywhere in the code?

Re: the DOJ / Chrome story - it's bad news. Browsers are massive and costly. Underdogs like Brave are the wrong benchmark: they tap into Google's work. And there's nothing that ChromeCo can sell to pay its bills that wouldn't hurt users worse than the ad dollars they're relying on today.

Very important finding on crosswalks, yield rates, and speed. At 20 mph, 3 out of every 4 drivers yield to a pedestrian in the basic crosswalk. At just 30 mph, that rate drops to 1 in 8 drivers.

The people who live in the single-family homes next to the lot that's slated to be turned into an affordable housing complex will always turn out to the community engagement meeting. The people who don't yet live in the affordable housing complex obviously won't. We have to change this system.

ICYMI: Missouri just imposed a new mandate for Kansas City to spend 25% of its general revenue on the police. AND local officials will have no say in how their $ gets spent by the police department—since it's a rare city with no control over the police. boltsmag.org/kansas-city-...

We got tricked by science fiction into thinking a futuristic city is all about flying cars and crystal towers and hologram billboards but what it really looks like is nice apartment blocks, good mass transit, pedestrian zones with shade trees and safe bike lanes.

This was a fun and challenging feature to build, so happy it's finally rolling out! If you wanna read a bit about how I built the backend for it, check out this blog post - jazco.dev/2024/04/20/r... Roaring Bitmaps are a really neat datastructure and have a lot of uses in large-scale systems :)

I would humbly argue that the Missouri AG arguing that an innocent person should be kept on death row because to reopen his case would destabilize the system is proof that the system most motherfucking definitely needs to be destabilized.

Last Wednesday evening Kris Nova had a climbing accident and died. All of us that loved her are heart broken and stunned. She was an amazing person that lived out loud and built connection and community wherever she went. She will be horribly missed.

Someone took a very big and heavy old tire, filled it with dirt and plants, and used it to tighten up the turning radius at a corner where drivers turn way too fast. Love this creative bit of DIY traffic calming. (Sent to me by a friend. I'll head out later to see it in action.)
