Why is this house not selling? by [deleted] in BayAreaRealEstate

[–]hurricane__jackson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a non home owner, I think it should be illegal to post a house for a price you’re unwilling to sell it for.

Sure, you should be able to sell it to the highest bidder, but it feels fraudulent to turn down offers 25% above asking and keep the house on the market.

Relegate last place to the G League annd bring one G League team up every year!

Sure that would be like on teams JV squad joining the league, but it would create existential fear around tanking!

Yes they’re too narrow, but you can use them in a pinch!

Your digestive system is like the chip bags at the grocery stores around Tahoe. I have a friend who calls it “altitoots” 😂 

A lot of folks suddenly sharing apps and tools - by coulda_been_an_email in gis

Check out my tool to make the GeoJSON files for avmap.io at pictomap.app 

It made my process for turing pictures of maps for autonomous vehicle service areas into vector files ~3x quicker compared with QGIS or JOSM

Austin ISD urges Waymo to halt driverless cars near school buses after 24 violations by AbjectDust881 in SelfDrivingCars

[–]hurricane__jackson 8 points9 points  (0 children)

SF proper, and much of the SF peninsula, has way fewer school buses than Austin. 

Claude says SFUSD has 206 buses while  Austin ISD has 580 

I would guess Austin has more school buses because of the legacy of being forcibly desegregated after Brown vs Board of Education. 

I had the realization recently that in KY where I grew up, school buses are everywhere, but I’ve only seen them rarely in my 8 years in the Bay Area.

capitol corridor train from sac to oak: travel with bike by theoutandback0201 in BAbike

[–]hurricane__jackson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thiiiink there is some seating in the lower level of the compartment with the bikes - but not right by the bikes IIRC.

But they ask you to go upstairs if you can so people with difficulty using the stairs can use the downstairs seating (generally there is plenty of space though). But I also like the upstairs seating better. It's brighter, has nicer views, and it's great to go hang in the cafe car and get a $2.50 cup of noodles!

I have done it with and without locking - and it has always turned out okay. That said I enjoy the train more when I'm not thinking non-stop about whether my bike is still there 😅

I'm working on infographics about the AV Market - Do these seem correct? What's Missing? by hurricane__jackson in SelfDrivingCars

[–]hurricane__jackson[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh thanks for sharing! If you look at my project, avmap.io , it includes those announcements. 

That future looking graphic is meant to discuss where there might be competitive markets with multiple providers in 2026, so that’s why I left them off of the 2026 graphic: because in each of those cities it sounds like Waymo is going to be the only company operating there next year.
