@JRVisscher@pauljamil Just be safe. It’s a cool car but most people don’t buy a Tesla like this to accelerate to the speed limit. “Launching” is typically a racing culture thing. So it doesn’t need to become a thing we do in pedestrian areas.
@JRVisscher@pauljamil I would beg to differ. Perhaps that person was going under the speed limit. However, what if someone was just stepping out in the street to cross thinking they had a few seconds as the car was still a block away but all of a sudden it’s doing 60? That’s not safe is it?

The popularity of e-bikes is increasing rapidly, but a sustainable and user-friendly charging infrastructure is lacking.
Developed at @tudelft, TILER is the world’s first e-bike charging tile, which uses induction to wirelessly charge via the kickstand!

When a house is burning down, firefighters don��t ask about coverage. They put out the fire.
Why don’t we approach our health care system in the same way?
Let’s #PassNYHealthAct & finally give all NYers* universal healthcare.
