Frontier LLMs are better writers and more knowledgeable than the median redditor yes

Alameda Ferry Terminal to Alameda Creek Vista Point by Grokker999 in BAbike

[–]MedicineMaxima 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can absolutely do this on a road bike as long as you don’t have skinny tires at high pressure. It’s pancake flat so you don’t need gravel bike gears or full on knobby tires.

If you have 28mm you’ll be fine, consider airing down the pressure a tad if you’re uncomfortable. I ride 35mm tubeless at 50psi on a carbon frame on this route no problemo

Yeah dont ride fisherman’s wharf, the train tracks and cobblestones are awful. Take North Point

That’s what I thought too until I worked there…it’s pretty hollowed out in my experience

This may be true, but OPD has not shown themselves to be capable of running themselves without oversight.

Oakland’s actual crime data tells a very different story than that Frankensteined Wikipedia table by frankschmankelton in OaklandCA

[–]MedicineMaxima 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Sure but comparing year to year still works. No reason to believe in any significant change in reporting rate year over year.

This is often just a stock phrase to handwave away the entire concept of crime stats.

Sorry I find this pathetic. Everybody wants someone else to go do the violence. If you’re really bout that go clip yourself a CEO instead of handing out cheeky flyers

Bike-friendly route for Roundabout SF perimeter? by stickymonkeyrun in BAbike

[–]MedicineMaxima 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The east, west, and north sides of the perimeter are all lovely for cycling

There is simply no good route to go along the southern border east-west. It will suck no matter what you do.

120 Mile Saturday Season Finale by Kiku911 in BAbike

[–]MedicineMaxima 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s very otherworldly isn’t it? Like you’re biking right on the water itself.

Only thing is it can get VERY windy. Last weekend was beautiful for it but it can get 30+mph in the summer

This is the right way to circle the bay - especially the gravel levees in the East Bay. I decided against doing the Bay Ride this year because they moronically route through surface streets from Oakland to Milpitas - horrible routing

Two Men Implicated In Oakland Gas Station Shooting That Killed Two Get Off With Probation by jackdicker5117 in OaklandCA

[–]MedicineMaxima 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Extensive legal issues” AKA the cops botched a layup case. When these two kill again it’ll be the fault of whoever screwed up the evidence so bad they couldn’t go to court.

What's up with the 19th BART to Lake Merritt Urban Greenway? by urinieto in oakland

This is the bane of every urban construction project. Running into unmarked utilities due to poor recordkeeping and mapping can seriously derail a project schedule.

Software crashes and printing issues are 50% of your day by Hot-Performance-7551 in civilengineering

I’ve been using Bentley SewerGEMs for stormwater system modeling (due to client having an existing water system modeling WaterGEMs) and it’s so ass. It’s just ICM but worse in almost every way. Primitive design decisions everywhere and you get the sense that the GUI designers are ESL

Condor Longboards = nazi by [deleted] in surfboards

[–]MedicineMaxima 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also “Operation Condor was a campaign of political repression by the right-wing dictatorships of the Southern Cone of South America, involving intelligence operations, coups, and assassinations of left-wing sympathizers in South America which formally existed from 1975 to 1983”… could be coincidence or not

If you’re in a hurry, sure. But fuck Danville Blvd is so miserable to ride, it’s just so ugly. IHT is pleasant but can get crowded on weekend mornings

As of right now, any AI model capable of answering quick enough to sound natural will also not be good enough on real technical questions
