  • Unlike proprietary social media, there isn’t an algorithm showing “tailored content for you” too which you add “way less users” and no “big influencers”

    To have content, you should subscribe to more communities, also please feel free to post content in order to create some conversations


  • Bicycle lanes are always a chicken/egg problem, If you build safe bicycle lanes (and not just drop some painting on the road without changing anything else) you’ll drag more cyclist, which in the end let more space on the road for people who really need it. It’s annoying for the car-drivers, but it’s not like car aren’t annoyance for the rest of the population either. Too many cities gave the priority to car in absurd proportions.

    Regarding traffic code, it’s a complicated topic, there is some minor changes of rules which are really making cycling more efficient, I am thinking about the right-turn on red or the dual way bike-lane in single-way street (when technically possible). On the other hand, some cyclists indeed ignore every possible regulation, all while not having the experience to understand what’s safe and what isn’t


  • My hot take is that we get full automated commercial plane before single pilot.

    Single pilot means that there is no way to avoid an air Berlin like mass murder (and being locked alone in a cockpit doesn’t sounds great for mental health). No pilot means less risk to have such a scenario

    Sure we need risk analysis (accident caused by humans versus humans preventing accident) and most likely newer ATC protocols, and some upgrade in equipments, but I doubt there it a major obstacle.

    Welcome back,

    You’ll see the same communities/magazine no matter what’s the instance you use. However, some delay due to federation is possible, it’s espacially a problem with .world due to their relative weight.

    The local feed means you’ll see post from your instance, which may-be interesting as you’ll see content you like if you choose a thematic instance, but it’s not a blocking feature.

    Then there is a bunch of weird instance, like grad where right-winger are role-playing being leftist by shit-posting on how much they love Kim il sun or Vladimir Putin. these are defederated by most big instances and you won’t see their content (and believe me, you miss nothing)


  • Location is the most iportant, meaning that the realistic option is appartment

    • Can get fresh breakfast on the week-end with a 5 minutes walk, and do not need to plan a weekly grocery trip when I have everything down the stairs

    • Do not need to drive home if I get a drink

    • Have access to tons of activities within a reasonable distance, no matter whether I want to learn Korean, watch stand-up comedy or listen to underground heavy metal

    • Kids can quickly get some autonomy compared to suburb where road are full of cars and parents need a car to go every where.



  • Clear and accessible policies, and in general HR being at least honest and consistent with what’s written there. I know what kind of hotel I can book, or whether I am eligible to an upgrade when travelling, and don’t have to ask to get my double-pay when working on sunday. It’s a pitty that this bare minimum isn’t guaranteed in many employers
