The frustration and pain of Python packaging comes from two major factors: 1) it’s an open source ecosystem (with HUGELY diverging user personas), and all scaled open source ecosystems end up settling on the concept of a “distribution” to solve the n^2 coordination problem…

One of the craziest findings in urban planning is that you can reach more jobs faster by car in Dutch cities than American cities — *and* walking, cycling, and transit are faster in Dutch cities. Building cities for cars fails even cars. @BrentToderian nature.com/articles/s4294…

Finding a home, condo, or apartment in Burlington is too difficult. Housing opportunities of the past are not available today.

The only reason I can think to really avoid "YIMBY" is if you're principally focused on high-level lobbying rather than grassroots organizing, in which case, I can see why you might want a name that sounds like some obscure LIHTC (c)4 arm. But that's not most groups!
This is interesting. The most common reaction I get among normal people in Vermont is that they strongly agree with me in principle that we need more housing but then they have a laundry list of very specific attributes they want the new housing to have.
A discourse that I find supremely tedious, mainly because the answer is rather obviously, "no." Does YIMBY have a brand problem? Among extremely online NIMBYs who want us to fail, yes. But among normal people, I've only ever received positive reactions.
Trying to take the PATH between Manhattan and New Jersey on the weekend is just a comically bad experience. At least all of this new congestion toll revenue that New Jersey drivers are so mad about will help. Oh, wait…not a dime is going to cross-Hudson transit 🙃
UVMMC had to spend $120M in unexpected travel nurse wage premiums this past year. This is passed onto Vermonters in the form of higher healthcare costs. Stripping Burlington of its authority to block housing near UVMMC would be like a 1.5% tax cut for everyone in the state.
One of the best ways to reduce both housing pressure and healthcare costs, would be to legalize *any* multifamily housing within 1 mile of healthcare facilities. UVMMC alone spent $120M on travel nurse wage premiums due caused in part by the housing shortage. #vtpoli
Lawmakers are seeking increased allocations for housing, health care, public safety and more, but they will soon have to decide whether to throw those initiatives by the wayside, or raise taxes so they can accommodate the additional spending. vermontpublic.org/local-news/202…

You’ve almost certainly been lied to after Googling how big the world’s cities are. How can it be that Melbourne in Australia has 5 million residents, whereas New York City only has 8? It's been very difficult to compare cities, until now...
“What chafes critics, even those who might consider themselves progressive, is that they expect reconciliation to instead look like a kind of reversal, rewinding the tape of history to some museum-diorama past.” apple.news/AmvjjRLoFRpm_7…
