Not only did I set up GitLab's Container Registry this weekend, but I also wrote some Go to delete zombie Droplets! ethitter.com/p/46708/

My @npr story about InTandem Cycling, a non-profit which pairs sighted and blind/low vision riders on tandem bikes. A wonderful organization! one.npr.org/?sharedMediaId=n…

I live in an urban area and don't own a car. I can walk to an Ace, but the nearest big box store is an Uber or bike ride away.
How does Ace Hardware stay in business? 15% higher than Lowe’s and Home Depot while having nothing you need in stock

A curious sight on the Blue line today... Looks like a Siemens P2000, judging by its fleet number. Haven't seen one of those on the Blue line before. #lametro – at Long Beach, CA

The first Paramedics in the country were Black men and women from Pittsburgh, PA and it started because Cops refused to go into Black neighborhoods to take them to the hospital the same way they did in White communities. npr.org/2022/09/27/112416189…
What is a piece of black history do you wish more people knew?

Never forget, a 13-year study found that protected bike-lanes led to a drastic decline in fatalities for all road users. ALL ROAD USERS. And painted bike-lanes? No safety improvement at all. For sharrows, it’s safer to NOT have them. Via @StreetsblogUSA usa.streetsblog.org/2019/05/…

Regularly haunted by my own hubris - tried to set my bf up on a playdate with my coworkers husband because they both “really like bikes.” Anyways, it turns out her husband was in the Tour De France
