I dont' know how you reached the "didn't work out well" conclusion, both metrics you mentioned were commensurate with systemwide metrics, meaning fare-free didn't have much of an impact on these routes. Ultimately, ridership increased


Ridership increasing doesn't make it a success. I read that New Yorkers who frequently used the bus system were asked what the city could do to make their experience better. Among those who were polled the top two complaints were that the buses were too crowded and often late. The free bus trial program made these two metrics worse - 30% more riders (aka even more crowded) and longer dwell times (aka more delays). The bus fare being too high was like number five or six on their list of things that riders cared about.


So add more buses?

There are just a lot of people in New York. The roads are packed, and the public transit is packed. More transit would help solve both problems.

Backdoora private network how? Or do you just mean that an NSG wont apply like you might have expected?


Its always surprising to hear that people use this tool


Nah nobody outside Canonical uses it. Just sarcastically wondering why they don’t just abandon the thing.


When I read Juju I think you were talking about JuJu Densetsu xd.


Speaking of ChatGPT getting worse over time, it would be interesting to see ChatGPT be benchmarked continuously to see how it performs over time (and the results published somewhere publically).

Even local variations would be interesting


https://livebench.ai/ does that, the latest gpt4o underperforms previous versions significantly


I think this 100% true, you don't read those books for any pleasure, its simply a necessary part of an education in theoretical physics. rigorous and challenging


being cheeky, but isn't this just another tutorial


The author totally missed the potential title of "The tutorial to end all tutorials" :)


> the homeless will go to some other place where they can live a better drugs and camping lifestyle

They should just drive in their cars to those cheaper places, true


Or their (meth) RVs or vans. Those are surprisingly common, but they tend to go to cities that don’t enforce parking limits for unhoused (LA, SF, Seattle)…
