If you've been doing it this long you know that you're the outlier. Bicyclists are terrifying to be near.

You want 25 mph for 70 miles of road in some places, not reasonable given how the US has built itself. Places that can achieve this (dt San Francisco, dt Boston,dt Oakland, dt New York) already do this.

It's pretty annoying when people use ambiguous or no signaling (you cant claim the last spot before a right turn by turning on your signal) in bumper to bumper traffic and expect people to make space is one problem.

From a bias perspective assholes in pickup trucks or sports cars that always take multiple spots always back in, so there may be some leftover negative associations, at least for me.

Not having safe infrastructure doesn't make bikers any less dangerous to be around. My specific citation is the bay area, other places I've lived have not had the sheer quantity of bikers (and drivers) with a death wish/complete lack of spatial awareness.

yeah i dont think anyone seriously buys into bitcoin=private in 2024 thankfully. they are still deluded on monero, but its only a matter of time.

It is similar to open source social media.

thats federation, not open source. reddit was open source for a while, but not federated -- and now we are here. whatsapp uses an open source protocol, but isnt federated -- some asshole hawaiian (resident of hawaii, not the other option) controls it. Signal is open source, but won't federate, its controlled by people who are way more into crypto than helping their users (moxie was actively against federation, using such examples as email to prove how federation is a failure)

don't recall, it covered both bitcoin and etherium and investigated who owned what. ill see if i can't find it. edit: this seems to be the academic version of it, but theres a prettier journalism version with more stories and pictures: https://arxiv.org/abs/2206.02871

in this case i seem to have misremembered owners vs miners, but I'll keep poking around. this one is also older than i remember.
