Ο καθηγητής Βασίλης Τσαουσίδης του Δημοκρίτειου πήγε να κάνει ένα μπάνιο στη νέα Πέραμο Καβάλας. Δεν υπήρχε χιλιοστό ελεύθερο από το μπιτσόμπαρο. Κάθισε σε μια γωνιά, του είπαν τρεις φορές να φύγει.
Η επιχείρηση δεν εχει άδεια από το Δήμο
Ο καθηγητής δε το έβαλε κάτω...

The most important thing about this amazing Paris transformation is how fast it happened — how fast people on bikes “appeared” — once streets were transformed. You can’t write this off as “Paris was always this way,” because it wasn’t.

It took leadership.

Confiscate urban space from cars and redistribute it to pedestrians.

I built the Apple Pay Cash gradient animation over the weekend, just with UIKit and CA!

The key idea is that you take the distance from each dot to some focal point, and "map" it to a hue in the HSL color space.

If people are interested, I can post the code & a quick writeup.

@levelsio Their comment doesn’t acknowledge your journey, so it misses the point. In my eyes your challenge now was how to add a new, meaningful product line to an established ecosystem. That is still very interesting story to tell.

It’s #WorldEVDay. A gentle reminder that in Germany alone people bought more e-bikes in 2020 than electrified cars were sold in all Europe. In the Netherlands, a country with more bicycles than inhabitants,people bought more e-bikes than all cars together.
You know what an EV is.

Feels like a new wave of gamers are pouring into the NFT scene. That’s a massive untapped Twitch audience that has money and understands tech and community. I think this will drive an even more rapid move towards NFT utility, particularly into immersive and interactive p2e games.

"What equity is good allocation if I'm joining an European startup?"

A hard question to answer, as so much of EU startups are behind US allocation. But I've found an excellent resource by @IndexVentures: a free, online book for stock options for EU entrepreneurs. It's AMAZING.

Paris is investing £225m to transform the iconic but car-choked Champs-Élysées boulevard into an “extraordinary garden.” Among other things, 140K on-street parking spaces will be removed. Bold city-building leadership from @Anne_Hidalgo & team. Via @TheB1M

As a kid growing up, I’ve cheered for @Arsenal as long as I can remember. If KSE would like to sell Arsenal I'd be happy to throw my hat in the ring.
