Shockingly common in England currently. There’s a scheme to change roads near schools to pedestrian only during school hours but it’s getting loads of push back from the Range Rover brigade.

The meaninglessness is still there. What I suspect is the biggest difference is the headspace surrounding it. If there’s not inherent meaning to life, then that frees you to create your own with your own goals and desires and whatnot. If there’s no inherent meaning, then any meaning we as humans come up with for ourselves is the meaning. For some people, that’s religion. For some, it’s taking care of their loved ones. For a few of my friends, it’s to play as many video games as possible. For others, it’s to work as much as possible. The beauty of it is that they’re all right, the meaning of their life is what they make of it. You are what you repeatedly do.

I’ve been getting into Fava, it has a plugin called fava-envelopes that mimics the envelope style budgeting of my one true love, YNAB4, but with the strength of double entry accounting as well. All docker composable as well.

I have such high hopes for London, their cycling infrastructure has been getting better I er the years, but then I go to Paris and just cry at what is possible

This is a current bug that will be fixed in the next version I believe. Some instances periodically restart the instance to get this statistic repopulated
