@united Your pricing on seats and bags makes no sense. Husband and I have unlinked tickets - he got charged $40 for his bag, I was charged $50. Same flights, seats next to each other. And when opting to upgrade our seats during check-in my price went up when I bought after him.
@alittleleader I think you said you’re not a morning person so this might not work, but leftovers in a thermos were my school lunch for years. But that requires reheating in the morning and putting in the thermos (and I usually prime the thermos with boiling water from my tea kettle)
Lesson of this study: Bicyclists are an indicator species for general street safety (among drivers, pedestrians, etc).
If you see lots of people cycling, city streets are probably safe. If not, you've got a problem.

@Jaimemckay1 Mostly remind myself that sometimes any progress is success. And often it’s writing down what failed and trying not to make the same mistake twice. I’m in research and innovation, so mostly bemoan when a good idea didn’t get moving fast enough to be truly useful
@Jaimemckay1 I don’t have a sign example, but did want to say that a bus icon is useful in my mind - that way you know what the service is even if you don’t know the operator. Good for visitors
@ggwash Great footwork! You might also dig back into the @DDOTDC research archives - we did pretty intensive trip generation studies at mixed use buildings in the early/mid-2010s. The focus was a bit different and not so heavily on retail, so not a perfect fit.
@bigseb31213 I know part of it is maintenance and what to do if the business closes (street maintenance and facilities crews end up out there with sledge hammers and pry bars). Some of the “scaling back” is really putting things in a more standard oversight framework.
@motherofland Did a wedding with our son at 5 weeks old and he spent 80% of it in a carrier or his stroller, so outfit wasn’t visible for most of it. I’m impressed you have such suitable outfits at all! We parents were pretty impressed WE showed up appropriately attired on so little sleep.
This is among the best uses of actuation I’ve heard of. Easier to figure out cars want to cross than peds. And puts priority on the right mode for many urban contexts. I have not read the linked report and need to see how it works with bikes
In 2021, London introduced "Green Person Authority" at 18 locations—walk signals that stayed green until a car was detected—reducing pedestrian journey time with no impact on car traffic.
