Re:Cambridge's Ambitious Protected Bike Lane Law

I drive a car now and then in Cambridge and Boston, and I have to be constantly on a lookout for misbehaving cyclists. It's like most of cyclists are not even familiar with basic traffic regulations. If I was not paying extra attention, and was simply following traffic regulations on my end, I would be involved in more that a few car/bicycle accident.

And this is what I learned in my 15 years: programming is not a task done primarily with a text editor.

Cyclists will often ride between rows of cars that are stopped at a traffic light in an effort to get to the front, probably assuming that the 3 feet law doesn't apply in that case.
Cyclists don't have to be toxic for the whole setup to not work, they just have to not obey the same laws that are in place for cars. Where I live, I'm more likely to be hit by a cyclist on a pedestrian crossing than by a car.

Honest question: if the California subsidiary is able to provide those services at the set fees (i.e. pay salaries, etc.), how can it be considered "below market price"? Is it required by law to make a profit?

Big-name people like heads of state, like the then PM of my country to which the University of Philadelphia in 2004. gave a honorary degree. The same now sits in jail for corruption, fraud, and war profiteering amongst other charges.

What I've learnt is that if you start writing C++ as a plan-old C, you quickly find yourself reaching for this and that feature from C++ that makes your job easier and your code more readable. Knowing where to stop is the tricky part.

Yes, SSH-ing to my drone and running scripts while doing low passes and tight turns is just what I need. Sarcasm aside, this looks really cool from a hacker perspective but I'm straining to find a practical use case. Both CC3D and Naze32 platforms are open (hardware and software), smaller in size, cost 5 times less -- but are, I guess, nowhere near as flexible as this thing.

I'm sorry but I really don't understand this comment. If you don't like something in an open-source project you can walk away, but if you don't like something in a proprietary project you can't?
