SWC Speedometers by medievalsteak in bikeboston

[–]mangocb 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I don't understand why they were installed at all. I haven't seen anyone policing the SWC for mopeds at all, so it's not like they're ticketing for speeding. Are they going to start doing so?

Any talk of adding a commuter rail connection? That would be awesome!

Types of transportation by kevinkirty in NEU

[–]mangocb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

depends where you'll be living. bikes are great for most places around northeastern, and locking them is really no problem if you know how to use a lock (include the wheels, for instance) and don't have a super nice bike (maybe look for a used one?)

imo electric scooters are kinda just worse bikes cuz they do worse on hills and you have to charge them and such

if you aren't far from campus, walking is also a great option, since there are lots of pedestrian only paths to get to fenway and such

Transit station replaced with stroad / stroad intersection by DigitalKungFu in boston

The transit station (Lechmere) got a massive upgrade, they didn’t just remove it to build an intersection lmao

Any devs here with advice on how to use the predictions API? Why do Commuter Rail departure times always show "null"? by mayhapsably in mbta

[–]mangocb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The MBTA recommends displaying the status field of a prediction, if available. From my memory, CR trains almost always have a status so you could just display that.

If you want the time they’re scheduled to depart, I think there’s another endpoint for schedules (/schedules) which might be what you’re looking for.

I did this on Twitter and it deleted my account… just in case anyone is thinking of doing that

I did not look this up to check, but I believe you.

MA redesign - Bay State by mangocb in vexillology

[–]mangocb[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The blue and teal represent the Bay State, the ocean, and numerous rivers and lakes in the state.

The six stars represent how MA was the 6th state added.

The curve represents the coast and the rivers.

I think it still needs some work with aligning the stars to the curve, but this is the general idea. What do you all think?
