Nope, they are not allowed on the underground network unless they are folding bikes.

Yes the City of London is also referred to as "the square mile" - a self explanatory title.

Also worth noting they broke up all other forms of transport i.e cars, buses, vans, etc. So it's more like cyclists make up 25% of road traffic against powered vehicles in a very small area of London, at particular times of day.

I do 40+ miles a day on road across London and would be really surprised if these figures hold up in general.

Whilst simultaneously realising the absurdity of the topic, I feel compelled to say how much easier the second style is to use - a thought I've oddly had more than once.

I like to cook with my child, they were able to peel carrots at age three using one, albeit with me holding the carrot!

Trial and error in my case, cars need regular maintenance so plenty of opportunities to shop around. I've been to the main dealer, chain type garages and independents. A couple of the smaller indies get my custom all the time now.

Simple things like going for a replacement tyre and being given a choice of price ranges and an explanation of each option, then watching them do the change and hand torque to the correct spec.

Or an air con regas at £50 at a small garage vs £120 at the main dealer.

Most recently I had the discs changed, was able to order the parts myself and drop them off for fitting at the cost of labour only. That'd never be an option at a main dealer or chain type garage but is pretty common for smaller outfits apparently.

Snapped up by collectors if they are desirable enough, check out the going rate for pre 1960s hand planes or vintage Snap On socket sets in obsolete sizes!

Like most hand woodworking tools, the brace and bit is incredibly satisfying to use, especially with a decent set of augers.

I've seen AMP pages really fail for retail sites. I followed this link yesterday and ended up on an AMP page with no way to purchase the item or continue on within the site. No idea if that's the site's fault or Google's but it must be costing them customers.

Right or wrong, I find it fascinating to watch language evolve like this and it's really apparent most in internet comments. I see so many sentences starting with "I mean" over the last couple of years where I can't remember it being commonplace before.

"For sure" is another sentence starter I've noticed, then there are terms like "on trend" which now seems to mean fashionable or popular.

I'd love to do a ngram analysis of this phenomena (?), or maybe just something simple with elastic search on Reddit comments where you can see how the use of search terms grows and evolves.

Why stop at using a computer, you could apply this sentiment to every item anyone may use.

We should all have a decent grasp of molecule rotation and the electric dipole moment before zapping that meal in the microwave!

Cold spots in a heated house and a lack of airflow seem to cause mold. The temperature difference causing condensation, excess moisture with nowhere to go and then mold.

Interesting whether this would happen in an entirely unheated building.

But we've always generated the html using other languages, still needed to have a pretty decent idea of how it works. I find it hard to believe that's all redundant now in quite the same way knowledge of assembly is when your a python dev for example.

Like take the open graph meta tags for example, for certain websites it'd be a big oversight to leave them out because you never bothered to learn what they were.

I don't know if all this makes for a decent interview. Just blows my mind that people deem it too low level to have to care about, but what do I know anymore, it's been a real long time since I made a web page.

I've not been a frontend dev for well over a decade but I knew the meaning of all these meta tags. Back then I think it'd be pretty rare to find a good frontend developer who couldn't say what these were.

Have things changed so much that knowledge of meta tags is specialist now?

Assuming this interview was for a front end role that is.
