Happy October, Cambridge! Early voting begins in 24 days...

If my dentist is reading this, I definitely always floss every night 👀

You do start to develop a sixth sense over time... Always listen to your gut (except maybe if you're attempting to grocery shop on a empty stomach )

💕💗💕

I still think it's fun! Won't think too hard about it 😉

Rascal and I e-bike in all kinds of weather! I go to work and he goes to daycare.

😆 I didn't think about that but now I can't unsee it. Longfellow Bridge would have been iconic!

Dental floss was also successfully obtained, and it was not locked up! I have my 6 month cleaning coming up...

FYI at least when I went a week ago, the second floor magnet rack had many more options, including this specific one, compared to the first floor rack.

Once I realized the train car moved, I couldn't resist!

A white rectangular magnet with a cartoon of a MBTA bus that is "Out of Service" and "Boston" on the bottom.

On the topic of magnets, this 'Out of Service" MBTA bus magnet was a bit too on the nose (this was spotted in the Porter Sq Bookstore)

The one in Harvard Sq!

Walked into CVS to buy dental floss, walked out with a Red line fridge magnet, as one does.

Today I learned that pizza acrobatics is a sport on ESPN and it is a delight: youtu.be/ONvJQ7y8VEs?...

I got a classic Brompton with my first real paycheck after finishing grad school. Now I'm coveting their electric version...😅

There’s an election this fall near you. Have you identified *one* candidate that you will be supporting and doing a little volunteering for to keep politics where you live sane in the face of federal fascism?

Re-discovered this great demonstration of NYC's bendy flex posts while cleaning up my downloads folder, and thought it was timely share given the recent primaries!

(In contrast, Cambridge's flex posts are usually rigid)

School streets is another one of those things where a bunch of neighborhoods will be virulently against it until they see it working in a lot of other neighborhoods and start complaining, "Why do those neighborhoods always get the good stuff?" This is exactly what happened with Citi Bike!

Yes definitely! There was a huge difference even turning off Mass Ave onto a tree-lined/shaded side street.

A neighbor's sprinkler was partially watering the road and I may have intentionally deviated into its path haha

Omg sitting in traffic with heat rising from the pavement and from nearby car exhausts 🥵 Weirdly getting brief reprieves of cold air when biking by parking garages...

SO many bikes today! Great to see you Petru!

Lovely day trip to Cape Cod today on the Capeflyer!

Bike car was totally full, insane!

Fun beach time, cycling, covered bridge mini golf and food!

Also ran into some bike friends on the ride back ( @bikecommutema.bsky.social @dannickx.bsky.social !)

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

Me wearing a tee shirt with the words 15 minute cities in blue. No big conspiracy just lazy below. Don’t wanna go far for stuff in Orange at the top

"Don't Wanna Go Far For Stuff"

The 15 Minute City rebrand t-shirt.

He stops at this other guy's window, rolls down his window, and yells "IF YOU STOP HONKING AT HER AFTER SHE PUSHED THE BUTTON AND THE LIGHTS ARE FLASHING, SHE MAY GET OUT OF YOUR WAY JACKASS" See? Someone gets it!

He stopped honking, I went on my merry way.

Don't be jackasses, drivers.

The end.
