Recoome posted:Bucky I'm reading your actual article and I really think buses probably carry more than just a couple of passengers you absolutely dolt Ooh, so I took some advice and sat there for an hour the other night counting busses and passenger numbers, from 6:30 to 7:30, and that's actually pretty close. About 60 busses in total, and over half had 0-5 passengers. 10 had between 5-10 passengers, and only 3 had 20 or more. It really is critically underused.

Look I wasted time reading that but really Bucky you've got no idea on the actual demand or community desire for this which means it won't get done. Unless you want to work with a grassroots campaign with an established support base you are going to eat poo poo and get nothing done. If you knew what the actual demand is and able to do some kind of forecast you'd already be talking to the actual decision makers rather than spinning your wheels here. Take some of the advice or gently caress off.

Konomex posted:Perth has good bike paths, I can cycle from one end of my glorious city to the other. They'll put bike paths next to new highways as well, just hundreds of kilometres of shadeless pavement, no toilets, no water, an as many snakes as there are sticks that also sort of look like snakes. So I don't need your bike chat Bucky, it's not our fault you bike plebs couldn't put together enough pennies to afford a brown coloured foot path with the picture of a bike stencilled onto it. Hahahahaha you and me both, mate. One near me got torn up recently coz nobody told Main Roads opening up 3 consecutive streets to be freeway entrances might be a bad idea that would turn that entire area into a carpark in the mornings  Recoome posted:Look I wasted time reading that but really Bucky you've got no idea on the actual demand or community desire for this which means it won't get done. Unless you want to work with a grassroots campaign with an established support base you are going to eat poo poo and get nothing done. In Bucky's defense (... I cannot believe I am saying that), when it comes to active transport, communities often have no idea what they actually want. Bike paths are often a 'build it and they will come' thing. Waiting for community demand would be like only choosing to build a bridge after "enough" people start swimming across to get to the other side. Now if people could get off the internet and join a bicycle advocacy group, that'd be nice

Recoome posted:no idea on the actual demand or community desire for this You're right, people love spending hours in traffic and hundreds of dollars per week on petrol and parking, car-dependence rules, no one would like an alternative that gives people of all ages and abilities complete autonomy, and the reason 80% of people barely ride has nothing to do with the fact that there isn't a cohesive network to get them where they need to go without having to be in touching distance of motor vehicles. Grassroots campaigns with established support bases have done some wonderful things at the local level, but they haven't produced the network we need, cos the structure of that process isn't designed to. There's one person we need to convince.

These secret WhatsApp hit squads apparently not enjoying the “find out” phase very much https://www.theage.com.au/politics/federal/cross-party-mps-back-jewish-community-push-to-outlaw-doxxing-20240211-p5f3za.html quote:“We would not accept such silencing or intimidation of any other group of Australians, and nor should we accept or condone it for Jewish Australians, no matter how strongly people may differ in their political opinions over this conflict,” Sharma wrote in his letter. Funny, because accepting the silencing and intimidation of anyone who voiced less than full throated support for war crimes is precisely the action that led directly to this doxxing (which to be clear is also very bad because the people doing it either didn’t take enough care, or more likely were happy to include, any Jewish person they could regardless of whether they took part things)

It's called Public Transport. You know the thing that you do a short hop to then use to get to your destination that already exists to varying degrees? In Canada you can ride to a bus top, put your bike on the front of the bus - they have bike racks on the front! - and then ride the bus to close to your destination, then hop off and do the last km on bike? It's really cool and so so so less loving stupid than dedicated ferries for bikes when you can already take a bike on a ferry to the very few destinations where that is actually useful. Here's one for free, bike racks on buses Did you know planners have got this scheme of funneling last km cyclists and pedestrians onto Metro rather than cars? Planners actually ARE working towards car free travel or minimalised car use with a intergrated plan, when the Metro opens to Sydenham it's going to absolutly rule for the north west / north to ride to the bicycle storage racks at a station (accessed with your Opal card) or be able to take your bike on the easy access high frequency service to your destination last km commute. The reasons why I'm not taking you seriously is that you clearly don't know what exists, what is going to exist in the future, how to integrate it to where people actually *want* to go, where cyclists actually do go now, ideas you present do not stand even the smallest scrutiny and you dont listen to good suggestions. I'd rather have something that works rather than some City of Sydney bunch of rubbish that pissed off riders for how useless it was and dumped riders into nowhere lands or worse dense traffic until the pandemic seemed to actually bring some form of actual planning to new ones

SecretOfSteel posted:...and on the topic of political staffers, JFC Google... Seems pretty accurate. Just add "Channel 7" at the front Right to disconnect is super important, but like Recoome said needs to be enforced in some way. As always it's the younger workers who are new to the workplace that cop it the most as their lovely little dictator bosses contact them at all hours since they've got nothing better to do with their lives. Anything that says "you should be able to go home and disconnect from work" is good in my book.

As it stands with what passed the senate: An employee can refuse to monitor, read, or respond to out of hours contact unless the employee’s refusal is unreasonable. What is unreasonable should consider the reason for contact, how it is made, compensation in the terms of employment for it, nature and seniority of the persons role, and personal circumstances (including caregiving etc) It’s automatically deemed an unreasonable refusal if the contact by the employer was required by law EBA rights to disconnect that are more favourable than the legislation would still apply If there’s a dispute over whether an employees refusal was reasonable: First attempt to resolve it between the parties Parties may then apply to the fair work commission The FWC can make an order that the employee stop refusing contact, or for the employer to stop requiring the employee to accept the contact Failing to comply with that order is a civil remedy provision and carries a potential remedy up to 60 penalty units (~$19,000). So you’re not committing an offence as such, but you can be liable to pay the other party a remedy. As currently written the fair work act says that contravening an order from the FWC is liable to 12 months imprisonment as a criminal penalty, but excludes a list of several more minor orders. The amendment doesn’t add the new order regarding unreasonable refusals to that list, so if passed right now employers and employees could also go to jail, but Labor have announced that’s not the intent and that they’ll add it to the excluded list. There is a hook, but it involves getting the FWC to agree with you, and then pursuing the civil remedy provision in court after that if their conduct continues ( for the $ and/or an injunction telling them to gently caress off) so will be out of reach of most employees Solemn Sloth fucked around with this message at 01:02 on Feb 12, 2024 |
