hello! As usual, here's an unsubscribe link for you: Unsubscribe​

TWO emails in a month? What ails me? Working on a consistent writing habit.

Links. They're about mobility things, of course:

​

​My favorite instagram account, "segregation by design". Go watch some videos. Tell me what you think about them!

​Visualization of the Swiss Rail Network

​How Many Tracks Do Train Stations Need? A blog post (not mine) about, well, track counts and train stations. Interestingly, he pointed out that MOST lines could serve two-way traffic with a single railway!

I've written a little about street cars: https://josh.works/street-cars-in-golden​

A long time ago, I put a page together for "bike tours of Golden" (https://josh.works/golden-bike-tour-with-josh)

I'm doing a tour saturday morning. My backup bike is spoken for, but it's gonna be a peddle about in Golden. 9a. Anyone wanna join?

I'm still working on this application that will map all of my strava activity. Here's a not-up-to-date version: https://josh-strava-heatmap.herokuapp.com/​

It's very interesting data. Speaking of interesting, I think "interestingness" and "novelty" and "humor" are very reasonable sensations to pursue. This paper describes why. (that link also explains some of "my process" around academic papers. I still use an index for my notebooks.)

That's it for this week.

PS did you watch the instagram videos from @segregation_by_design? What do you think about it? How do you feel about highway widening? Are there highway widening projects in your city?

Houston/texas DOT and Denver/Colorado DOT are trying to widen highways in their respective cities. Sigh.

PPS I visited the Denver Police Impound Facility to check out my scooter. It's in rough shape. I'll need a vehicle on hand to take it somewhere - the ignition is quite messed up. But it's progress! I think it'll be repairable. Apparently a woman with a gun and a lot of drugs was riding it, and got arrested? Strange story.
