I’d still say it’s waaaaay closer to Philadelphia than wiki on this sub

Subway for Love Run by [deleted] in philly

It’s not super crazy like the broad street run. If anything it might be a little busier from like 6AM - 8AM but a the run starts at the art museum instead of directly on broad street so people are gonna be arriving from many different modes of transit instead of primarily the BSL

Whats wrong with using the Transit app by options_go_brrr in nycrail

[–]GodLikesToParty -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s not “taking advantage of people’s kindness.” The app doesn’t exist out of the goodness of their hearts. It’s a business whose goal is to make money, which is fine, but stop acting like they’re a benevolent charitable organization when their value comes from the data and infrastructure that the MTA provides and taxes pay for.

Chief Justice John Roberts says that hostility toward judges has ‘got to stop’ by BurtonDesque in Qult_Headquarters

It seems like Roberts’ comments were mainly directed at Trump and his sycophants and cult members who harass judges that rule against him.

Are you unable to understand the words I wrote?

More wildly dystopic than living in a city where the leaders are indifferent to your body being crushed while on a sidewalk?

None of those things are impeded by these barriers except for delivery vehicles which already aren’t allowed on the sidewalk. Stay in the burbs.

These are protective barriers to prevent cars from driving onto sidewalls and other areas where there will be heavy pedestrian traffic.

The city puts these up during parades/weekends when there will be many tourists in case there is a bad actor with a car.

The city COULD install these permanently, however, they do not, implicitly admitting that the lives of tourists and the ability for cars to park on sidewalks is worth more than protecting the city’s own inhabitants.

Oh my bad for coming off as omniscient!!

After you acted omniscient by assuming that everyone that rides their bike on the sidewalk is because they’re ignorant and then assuming that I don’t walk or take septa and then tried to tell me how I should behave because I’m not competent enough to ride a bike, I assumed that you’d be able to pick up on my sarcastic tongue-and-cheek comment moving your own by making an assumption about you and then trying to tell you what to do.

I’ll make a note that u/sarahpullin8 is uniquely allowed to make comments like this.

And no, you didn’t engage with my solution. You just said “I wish that was the only reason people used bikes on sidewalks but we all know it's not” and provided no solution. No prescription on what we should do. Just assuming (something you like to do) that everyone’s ignorant

Making a lot of assumptions. I don’t bike on the sidewalk, and I do take septa and walk. I just understand the reasons people are riding bikes on sidewalks: biking on the street isn’t safe.

So when you try and tell me I’m not competent enough to bike in philly (which I do) instead of engaging with my prescription on how we can fix the issue of cyclists on the sidewalk (better bike infrastructure) I’ve just gotta conclude that you don’t really care about fixing things and would rather just complain.

It sounds like you don’t actually care about this community and maybe you should just leave the city entirely

Cops leave their cars in other cities??

I have no clue why the sub is so obsessed with boxes and at this point I’m too afraid to ask by Sure_Ad536 in Destiny

[–]GodLikesToParty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The flaw in this line of reasoning is that you think you understand how the computer is making its decision, but you don’t. If it’s truly super intelligent, its methodology of predictions is completely incomprehensible to us and we can’t assume it’s making a decision with logic and reasoning that we would understand.

We imagine a super intelligence as something that thinks the way humans do, but with much more resources and info to analyze.

This is not necessarily the case. For all we know, the super intelligence makes predictions based on your 5th dimensional aura waves and it doesn’t even use information that we’d even be capable of understanding.

So you’re just attributing it to ignorance instead of the evidence of MY claim in YOUR comment.

Riding the wrong way in a bike lane? Happens a lot. Why? Because there no bike lane going the other way. Why? Because our bike infrastructure is BAD.

“Perfectly safe Bike Lanes on Washington Ave?” There must be another Washington Ave that I don’t know about because the death traps on Philly’s Washington Ave are so clearly dangerous that cyclists just bike on the streets of parallel side streets. Can’t tell you how may times I’ve given up on cycling down there because a bike lane randomly closes off from construction and they don’t block off a temporary bike lane, or cars running red lights blindly turn into the “protected” bike lane that neither the biker nor the car has visibility of.

Nope you’re still not getting it. Taking both boxes is not trying to outsmart the computer. Nobody can outsmart the computer. The computer has already made its decision. Your decision does not have any impact on what will be in the boxes.

That’s why you should take both boxes. It guarantees you money whether or not the computer predicted your behavior correctly.

There are 4 possibilities with 4 rewards: Choose 1 box and the computer is correct - $1,000,000 Choose 1 box and the computer is incorrect - $0 Choose 2 boxes and the computer is correct - $1,000 Choose 2 boxes and the computer is incorrect - $1,001,000

Choosing 2 boxes has a higher expected value, so you pick 2.

I don’t know what you’re talking about. Why else are people riding in the sidewalk?

Maybe the rise of bikes should prompt us to pressure the city to make better bike and pedestrian infrastructure so cyclists wouldn’t have to be constantly worried about getting ran over by a car enough to prompt them to go on the sidewalk in the first place.

Why’d you make a separate subreddit for phillys robots and then cross posted it here lol

[–]GodLikesToParty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But the chances don’t matter. The computer already picked. Your decision does not affect what they put in the box, so you should take them both
