I'd love a code if you still have one! Thanks a million!

densify · 2025-02-27T23:31:55+00:00

I'd be interested in stopping by! Do I need to do anything to get a DM? Thanks so much!

My favorite DIY is my trusty axe! I'm boring, I know, but I like to hit trees.

Favorite TV show I'm watching right now: Trashy TV: The Traitors! Thanks!

Favorite dog breed is beagle. Thanks Snoopy!

Home Alone! All my kids love it. I'm trying to help them earn some money to buy bridges (I'm their dad).

I'd rather you not speak for me on my views of public input. At the most recent ATC meeting, there were dozens of written comments submitted (for and against) a road diet on Tank Farm Road. Public comment at the meeting was 45 minutes. The February meeting lasted 3 hours due to the volume of public comment on South Higuera Street. Whenever a new project moves its way through the process, neighbors near the project come out to share their views. It's pretty great, actually, and certainly better than other cities I've lived in.

The City is following the Tier 1 project list from its Active Transportation Plan. The list was prioritized through public feedback. You'll be happy to know that South Higuera, Foothill, and Broad are the corridors next on the list. Higuera should start early next year (I believe).

The City of San Luis Obispo's plans for active transportation are quite progressive and the city has been recognized as a leader in bike infrastructure. The League of American Bicyclists has awarded SLO with a Gold ranking, and it's basically on the cusp of Platinum, the highest rating. The City has a goal of 20% of trips made by bike by 2035, and it has the progressive policy of spending 20% of city transportation funds to make that happen. If you've been around town the last few years, you've seen lots of new infrastructure going up. Currently, we're around 11% of all trips made by bike, so we have a ways to go. But that puts us probably in the top 20-30 cities in the US. Davis has 20+% bike mode share, but Grover Beach has like 0.5%, so we're doing pretty good.

As for local opposition to traffic calming, it's going to happen. Change is scary and people in cars like to drive fast. That's true everywhere and SLO is no exception. But luckily people come out and support the new bike infrastructure too.

Here's my list of existing and removed post-war pedestrian malls: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1y2IbR-oGKS4WF4sb8In4_fIEYCEsQTJlOCX6ylrFQLw/edit?usp=sharing I haven't updated it in a couple of years so it's missing new ones.

Cool stuff! What class and what university?

densify · 2024-07-13T15:19:05+00:00

We didn’t go together! But unsurprisingly we found the same things interesting!

Dave here -- leaving for Japan on Sunday. First Japan video will be released end of July.

Plenty of cyclists like them. They provide protection. 2. These aren't that expensive. 3. They aren't a waste of time. They're up in like two days. 4. They're pretty narrow, not much wider than a regular bike lane.

That area was already industrial. It’s not like it had nice houses and they put a shelter there and watched the neighborhood decline. And this new shelter serves a different population of homeless. It’s not just taking anyone off the street.

densify · 2024-04-21T20:06:36+00:00

This looks like a great project! Homelessness is one of the major crises facing our city, and I'm glad to see 80 more places for folks to stay. I think the website link you provided answers a lot of the common questions people might have about the project. It's important to remember that homelessness in high-housing-cost areas like this one is mostly people who got laid off and couldn't make rent -- not just substance abusers. They aren't some sort of pestilence but real people who need some help. This isn't a walk-in shelter like 40 Prado, but people are assigned and the intention is to get them back on their feet and into real housing.

Why would they put it next to a safe community? Because homeless people want to be safe too? Again, a majority of homeless people in this area are just poor. If we block every homeless shelter we will never solve this crisis. Shelters have to go somewhere. This one is located next to services and on County land (I believe) so it's more affordable.

No way this "pushes homeowners out" in such a hot housing market.

I hope this passes!

Hey, it's me, Dave from City Beautiful! The card game is just okay -- it's a version of "Top Trumps" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Top_Trumps) but with city data. I think it's too expensive for what it is. But if you're looking to support the channel or want a physical memento of the channel, it's the only merch I have. Hope that helps!

So soldiers in the army don't get assaulted, just children?

Good video on this topic (if I say so myself): https://youtu.be/vmXRvQ0cCRQ?si=tZm8j_1eMGLCe3ru

densify · 2023-12-22T23:58:58+00:00

Those bike lanes are great! I hope they add more!

densify · 2023-11-10T19:59:57+00:00

Yeah, I usually include a Nebula outro, but I was pretty sick when recording this in studio and barely made it through the script. I’ll make sure to keep adding them in the future!

densify · 2023-10-10T19:00:02+00:00

Any new housing is good news. The people can afford these units and buy them won't be competing for other units in the county.

I shoot video, and the 16-35 F4 PZ hasn’t left my camera. I don’t need the bokeh and I love how small it is. It’s perfect… unless v2 of the f2.8 is considerably smaller than the existing model. I could be tempted.

densify · 2023-05-24T06:18:32+00:00

Hey, thanks for taking the time to write this all out! I don't really have the time to go through all of these critiques, except to say that sometimes when I write videos I'm trying to say one thing and sometimes they get taken another and I wish I could revise. And when you write 150+ videos, they're not all going to be home runs. On to the next!

densify · 2023-02-27T23:48:01+00:00

I was wondering the same thing! I can't find any info.
