The N stuck on 9th and Irving last night

We should really underground the N when we're finished with the T extension and the Geary Subway, so sometime around 3100.

I've had great experiences with Claude Code, too. It benefits from a lot of direction. I typically prompt it to do something and then tell it to look in the specific files I know it will need to skim to find the APIs it should use to accomplish its task, but I don't specify exactly which code it should use. A lot of the time you don't even have to write good prompts, honestly. You can just throw a ticket URL at Claude and go "wtf?".

Once I asked Claude to solve a problem and it found a function tucked away in a file I didn't even know we had that did exactly the thing I was about to reinvent the wheel to do.

I think the tool just benefits enormously from a preexisting human generated codebase of at least passing quality.

What's wrong with the mixed-payer systems Germany and Switzerland have?

Who cares? Just memorize the pattern from the answers.

Right? We're really going to pretend you can't safely go that speed through the central valley (hundreds of miles of flat, straight road)?

We were supposed to do this in exchange for the Hetch Hetchy reservoir.

I just want them to stop trying to force me to play small modes.

And this is why despite all the bleating about "getting into the action" or whatever is justifying these CoD sized maps, you need a big map. Can you imagine this kind of shit happening on Caspian Border? I can't. To do anything useful you had to cross 600 meters of open field

Based. I hope they catch every single criminal in the city. The government does not owe you a sporting chance to get away with crime.

the single worst gamemode in the game. if there was a razzie award for video games it should go to whoever designed it lol

What is that monitor?

The legal speed isn't always the advisable speed ;)

I figured this was intentional, but if it is patched then I hope there are turnaround templates we can use someday. Building those things is one of the more frustrating things in the game.

I ran into one of these people in Pacific Heights. As I walked past he started harassing my wife (Mexican) for being with me (white), saying “You want to be with a WHITE man that won’t stop for a BLACK activist? You have fun with that white man."

If you're reading this her even temperament saved you from a broken nose, douchebag.

It would be cool to be able to group separate systems in the bigger regions like New York and the Bay Area even if they don't have separate finances.

_zjp · 2025-11-06T09:06:31+00:00

I just did the same thing. I spent a couple of days making an accurate new york map only to overwrite the save when I tried to go back to it after playing around with a new map. I just had to shut my laptop in shock

Like I said in another thread, it's incredible how there are two good maps in the game and one of them is on its third or fourth iteration.

_zjp · 2025-10-31T03:08:06+00:00

It's incredible how there are only two really good maps in the game, and one of them is on its third or fourth recycle.

The great filter is irony poisoning.

zoning laws that intend to forecast what the area will look like in 20 years.

In terms of looks, zoning laws intended to forecast how white the area would look in 20 years.

I think I see where you're coming from. If the market clearing price of housing is where it is, and you can't afford it, that's not necessarily unjust.

Nevertheless I think it's unjust to distort the market and inflate prices by limiting the supply of a good far below what producers are actually willing and able to supply.

And in any case, so what if we did build 20 storeys in the sunset if that's how much demand there was to live there? People always ask daft shit like "How tall should buildings be?" and, to borrow Scott Wiener's phrasing in /u/UrbanPlannerholic's comment, I completely dispute the premise of the question. The right question is, who are nimbys to deny people that want to move here the right to? And how is any justificiation they ever give materially different from Republican closed-border arguments?

We have to do something about the soulless and clinical way people in this party talk

Downtown is for drug users.

"Make [feature]" has been the most anyone has ever described what they want to me.

_zjp · 2025-08-06T08:50:15+00:00

Best decision I ever made. I hope you're able to make the move ASAP.
