  • There is a little more to it than that.

    A barrier has to start somewhere. The blunt end is considered a hazard for cars if it is too close to the lane, called the clear zone. That blunt end is considered very dangerous and either needs to be located out of the clear zone or have expensive and large crash cushions protecting the blunt end.

    It is going to be very difficult finding a civil engineer who will approve installing a blunt end right next to an active travel lane. That makes it useless if you’re trying to protect a bike lane next to traffic.

    This is how the comic is shown on the artist’s website and we went through a whole thing in this community about someone modifying the comic already.

    This is also kind of getting into the reason why RSS failed. People wanted content without ads or paying for it and a lot of content providers didn’t see the utility of giving away the content for free without the chance for revenue to come in.










  • he had the guts to tell me I have to talk to him

    I’ve worked with people who say they are all work and no talk. Their work was generally worse than others because they wouldn’t stop to coordinate with others while they worked and they should have. There were plenty of times they would make decisions when they should have talked to others, then those decisions needed to be backtracked because those decisions were wrong on the context of the project, costing time and money. They also end up being hard to work with because they devolve into screaming matches with other staff whenever there needed to be a discussion on his to proceed.

    It ended up being a problem for their advancement because I couldn’t trust them in a leadership position they asked for when they wouldn’t show any leadership equivalent to their job’s roles and responsibilities.

    Whenever I’ve given the direction “you need to talk to others”, it isn’t about talking to others about their day, but to talk to them about their work because their work is uncoordinated.
