eXXon posted:Meanwhile, the Ontario government is set to spend at least that much on an idiotic highway through mostly rich farmland so that one day their developer buddies can pave it over with more garbage subdivisions. This sort of thing drives me more nuts than usual given the future we're heading towards. It's just so loving wasteful. We'll be building SFH in Mad Max scenarios at the rate we're going

eXXon posted:You see, Japan unfairly penalized the development of a robust airborne transit system, and now is stuck in a dystopian future with convenient and affordable mass transit serving the vast majority of its population. And then the dude wrote "but tunnels!" and Ashton responded: America: can't build high speed rail because it is too bumpy Japan: only able to build high speed rail because it is even bumpier than America

mortons stork posted:there's a guy named ashton in the comments who is absolutely ventilating the author ~~with facts and logic~~ and getting him increasingly pissy and mad quote:I literally wrote this blog, as I write nearly all my blogs, in about an hour between putting the kids to bed and collapsing from exhaustion. If you don’t like reading it for free, go find something else to do. I don’t owe you anything. lmao

My favorite bit is where he tries to get Ashton to go away in the pissiest way possible.Mommy's Sleepy Little Boy posted:You seem to be getting a bit worked up over this. Why not organize your thoughts and write a blog arguing the opposite case. If it meets my obviously low standards, I’ll cross post it. Ashton posted:No

Gonna stop posting about the hyperloop dude but he's edited in a great non-correctionquote:I was surprised to see how readily some of the core ideas were misunderstood, though it is true that I haven’t written as much recently as I used to, and I’m almost certainly less sharp as a result. This blog contains generalizations and inaccuracies – it’s intended as a jumping off point for the interested reader. The bottom line is that California high speed rail won’t work for dozens of reasons, and I wrote about a few relatively obscure but quite fundamental ones

the guy can't even explain why he used a 70-year-old version of an article on vehicle efficiency across a variety of modes of transport that was recently (early 2000s) revisited to account for changes in technology. https://twitter.com/790f0fb7/status/1579863329031720960 https://twitter.com/790f0fb7/status/1580011970182664196
