Amazing Cutting-Edge Revolutionary Technological Algorithmic Science Invention (lemmy.world)
I saw a good article on c/upliftingnews about AI improving traffic signal controllers. It’s good and all, I just can’t help but think of the “look at what they need to have a fraction of our power” meme while reading it

Shouldn't we be switching buses with light railway? (lemmy.tf)
Even if you think what you would say is obvious, please add. This is genuinely something I think makes sense regarding local bus routes given the longevity of light rail and how infrequently routes change, but I also suffer from confirmation bias, so I’m hoping for reasons this would be a terrible idea but obviously would...

flipping off drivers for the bus driver.
I take the bus about 8 times a week to go see family and the bus i go on goes through some villages and towns, with many cars being impatient and taking the piss with a double decker bus. These bus drivers are pretty calm and just take it because they know if they didn’t, they’d be fired....
Just Buy Everyone a Car (www.youtube.com)
