Yes, but also no - if an ebike is replacing a car trip, it's using 2 orders of magnitude less resources. As an example, this morning I had to take my kiddo to her summer camp, and it's about 5 miles one way. I'm relatively fit, but without electric assistance I'd have driven.

Here in the US, we've built ourselves into a bunch of low-density suburbs - e-bikes represent an incredible opportunity to reduce carbon emissions now, without needing to demolish entire communities and rebuild them more densely.

Love a good cargo bike!

Are you currently located in the US? I think getting a driver's license in the US is unfortunately necessary because of all the car-dependent places that there are.

Well, that's certainly not safe for work

I play Just Cause 4 every once in a while, and ironically because of that mindlessness it's almost the perfect game to pick up and play in short bursts - go in, blow some shit up, be done in 20 minutes. It has its appeal because I know I can just pick it up, where bigger story games like Cyberpunk or Fallout you spend a few minutes every time you start up going "now where was I..."

Same thoughts here - it's like you had to be in it at the very beginning to have any enjoyment - otherwise your first hours in the game are just getting killed over and over again

I was skeptical of CTEs for a long time. I just used subqueries when I could in T SQL, and then I got a new job and my new company used Postgres. In the adaptation process I took a new look at CTEs and became a convert - it's just nicer and easier to read the intermediate step than as a subquery

I can't speak to your ride, but I have no hesitation riding my ebike in the rain. I've got a Shimano mid drive designed for EMTBs, if it can handle muddy MTB trails a little rain isn't going to hurt it
