WMATA down in Washington DC implemented a similar program for their Metrorail service back in 2018 (and in subsequent years have since gotten rid of it), but that relied on riders already needing to tap in and out of the system to use it

how would the TTC track a trip if riders don't need to tap off the streetcar when they finish their trip? or would this rely on riders self-reporting their trips?

Today's LLMs are built on theft and lies. We needed strong regulations yesterday to ensure their ethical creation and use. Even if we get that tomorrow, it's unclear whether they'll be a net benefit to society or if enough damage has already been done to make them a net negative.

all the people in this administration do is tell on themselves

So what are the solutions we're discussing? Traffic signal priority, left turn and parking restrictions, stop spacing adjustments, more representative on-time performance metrics (!), level boarding, standardized and higher-quality stop infrastructure, and much more. #StreetcarSummit

these people typically bitch and moan about their schools being overcrowded, and yet here's an opportunity to *reduce school headcount* and that's not good enough for them either

also, the property in question isn't even within the community association's boundaries

fuck off

thank you for your service

let's goooo 🎉

btw the "nice things" i'm referring to is lovely neighborhood retail and not cruelly kicking people out of encampments instead of making sure they have what they need to thrive, in case that was unclear

this kind of "haha funny gottem" talk from an important elected official would have been well received by me a year and some change ago before shit hit the fan, but now it's just frustrating to hear even if the dude is understandably just letting off some steam

this may be true internationally as well, but I don't know for sure!
