@HaskelCausey @the_transit_guy No matter how rich you are in Texas, you cannot afford a high quality public transit commute.

Money can't buy you options in Texas, but it should.

[Curtis Heinen @HeinenCurtis]

@JackKlompas @RM_Transit That just means the bike lanes should be made permanent and at sidewalk level. And they double as emergency access lanes when cars block the road.

@saifedean @BitcoinVeterans In Canada, committee meetings go "in camera" regularly for obviously corrupt reasons, but nobody notices.

@CityHallWchVAN I guess I, a resident of Vancouver and YIMBY who enjoys being able to walk to places, enjoys mixed neighbourhoods, and enjoys good transit, am astroturfing.

Get over yourself. This is the reform we need. NIMBYs have been holding the pressure cooker lid down for far too long.

@DouglasTodd @janemactweet @VancouverSun You can't live in a city and expect parking.

[Curtis Heinen @HeinenCurtis]

@VancouverSun This is why regional rail is a no-brainer

[Curtis Heinen @HeinenCurtis]

@astupidmoose @Uber This is a poor urban design issue

Manhattan would have much lower land values if it was zoned for detached houses, but also much higher housing prices.

When driven by zoning changes, higher land values are correlated with lower housing prices.

@tokifyi No. Etransfer is not good. Lightning is far better

@jennifertchan Skill issue

@idoccor The neighbourhood shown is more of an abomination than the data centers

[Curtis Heinen @HeinenCurtis]

@guyfelicella But they were arrested...

[Curtis Heinen @HeinenCurtis]

Looking forward to seeing this built out. I'll be running it.

Bitcoin can do for trust what it already did for money: make false signals expensive. Spam, bots, misinformation, scams, and fake reputation exist because online signals are nearly free. I'm designing a protocol for irreversible sacrifices that prove cost and create a public, accountable signal of trust: https://t.co/EnnfkMK9SI

@JeffBooth @Breedlove22 @Princey21M @JoeNakamoto @jordanbush @OmniFinn this could be an interesting application of Bitcoin. I'd value your support!

Nothing is sweeter than spending bitcoin without merchant consent, especially after the merchant tells you they do not accept bitcoin and don’t want to. @BitcoinatBlock @Square @CashApp

[Curtis Heinen @HeinenCurtis]

Canadian gov't just can't let housing prices fall. They'll prop up the market while telling us they're making housing affordable. Classic doublespeak.

[Curtis Heinen @HeinenCurtis]

@LinkofSunshine LRT is usually a synonym for "glorified bus that isn't grade separated"

[Curtis Heinen @HeinenCurtis]

@MarkJCarney "We are bailing out the banks and developers because we care about affordable housing and can't let the market price of condos naturally drop."

[Curtis Heinen @HeinenCurtis]

You can't ask someone trapped in car dependency "do you prefer cars? " and treat that as meaningful data about optimal infrastructure.

[Curtis Heinen @HeinenCurtis]

@ChrisSpoke Or the end users can buy at an even lower price when the market forces the developers to sell at a loss.

[Curtis Heinen @HeinenCurtis]

@reallyoptimized In America, even the richest of the rich are too poor to afford a high quality everyday public transit commute experience.
