"Are these tools going to change us, or are we going to change the world with them?"

Makes you question: why do mass transit riders pay per trip, while road time is free for personal vehicles?

It's pretty useful already. Here's an interesting visualization:

Concurrent passengers: 20,000
2 lanes
Dedicate 1 lane for personal vehicles
Dedicate 1 lane to mass transit

~ > 90% of people need to take the bus for the personal vehicle lane not to stretch for kms and kms

I tried whipping something quick up this morning: drawing some lines over a map screenshot to show how many cars vs buses you need. editor.p5js.org/davepagurek/... Not the prettiest, need to double check that all the math is right, but maybe some inspiration!

to be fair, the traffic is spread out over a course of a day: we'll need to capture that.. the distribution would be heavily weighted to a few hours..

I'm hoping we can recruit some of the Creative Code Toronto gang to create an interesting visual: to help convey how absurd that is..

I’ve been trying to think of a good way to visualize how much space 40,000 cars take up. Little boxes overlaid on a map of a Toronto neighborhood like Dufferin? Of course you can’t physically fit that many personal vehicles in the same space as transit riders, but it’s hard to grasp intuitively.

TIL: I thought @dagger.io 's shell was just a DSL for piping dagger specific commands—but it’s actually a full POSIX shell interpreter 🤯 -- using @mvdan.cc‬ 's golang `sh` under the hood

I wrote about easing functions, my dissatisfaction with them, and possible routes towards a slightly better system because I keep be not having time to actually MAKE a slightly better system. maybe someone else also is unsatisfied and gets an idea from this? www.davepagurek.com/blog/easing-...

Bar chart showing traffic counts on Bloor Street West in Toronto during the afternoon rush on Wednesday, June 11, 2025. For each hour from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m., the number of bikes and motor vehicles (cars, trucks, motorcycles) was recorded. At 4–5 p.m., there were 643 bikes and 849 motor vehicles. At 5–6 p.m., 930 bikes and 832 motor vehicles. At 6–7 p.m., 919 bikes and 909 motor vehicles. At 7–8 p.m., 726 bikes and 935 motor vehicles. Bike counts exceeded car counts from 5 to 7 p.m. The chart was created by Matt Elliott for City Hall Watcher using data from the Toronto Community Bikeways Coalition.

Cool study from @bikewaysto.bsky.social detailing a traffic count on Bloor Street taken on June 11 with a camera at 412 Bloor West. During the peak of the afternoon rush, bikes outnumbered cars.

I repeat: bikes outnumbered cars.

John Tukey coined the word "bit" and invented the FFT. Not bad, not bad.

🚀 Wow the videos from @localfirstconf.com are already up! Here's my talk about Keyhive, an access control layer for local-first developed at @inkandswitch.com 🔑🐝✨

@patternist.xyz also gave a talk right after about Beelay: the E2EE sync system that uses Keyhive 🤝🧗‍♀️

I've written a little posts explaining why I use a web browser as my terminal:

I guess it's also a good opportunity to announce that I have a personal blog now, built using @lume.land and hosted thanks to @smallweb.run

YouTube video by Евреи Идут Bret Victor - Inventing on a Principle (with subtitles !)

I often think of Bret Victor’s seminal Inventing on Principle talk and his axiom: creators need an immediate connection to what they’re creating.

Declarative infrastructure contradicts that. Make a small change: re-run the pipeline, wait minutes, did it work? Iterate.

Toronto: world-class public transit. (That’s 3 words, right?) Making public transit the quickest, safest, most reliable, accessible & affordable option would solve traffic congestion, improve air quality, reduce noise, make streets safer, boost civic engagement, attract investment, benefit tourism…

Random thought: as laying down lines of code becomes more mechanized, open source will have an outsized advantage over closed source. While closed projects will sit idle fearing IP leaks, anyone can pick up an open source project, throw it on a Codex Cloud like lathe, and start producing iterations
