  • To me it would probably be "navigational" stuff, like bike/pedestrian crossings, sidewalks and bike paths, one-way streets and illegal turns etc. Plot some test routes for walking/biking/driving and verify the directions make sense. Then the main POIs if not already added, maybe some basic zoning? Also make sure that the features that already exist are properly tagged.

    Anyway, I think you shouldn't focus too much on what "you're supposed to map" and just map the features that you find useful/interesting. There are a ton of ways OSM can be used, so start with your own use case, and by making it better for you you will make it better for everyone :)

  • The first time I went on opentrainmap and looked at the "electrification" layer I thought there had to be a bug. All my life I had assumed the US had at least some high-voltage main lines but no. Almost 0 overhead lines, basically only metros are electric. My European brain can't comprehend not being able to take a 1h train ride to the next city over

  • I never heard of AltGr reffered to as "Meta", except maybe in the sense of "Emacs modifier" which might be bound to it. Super is definitely the key between LCTL and LALT though

  • Zuck: Yeah so if you ever need info about anyone at Harvard, just ask. I have over 4,000 emails, pictures, addresses, SNS

    [Redacted Friend's Name]: What? How'd you manage that one?

    Zuck: People just submitted it.

    Zuck: I don't know why.

    Zuck: They "trust me"

    Zuck: Dumb fucks

  • Funny, to me it's kind of the opposite - we need to give diversified environments where people can feel welcome, not trying to jam everyone into one big "community" which is anything but.

    I think that's what was great about the forum and personal website era. If you wanted a place where you can use edgy language and spend your time shitting on things, there's a website you could go to. Unicorns and hopeposting are over here. Nerds and geeks are over there.

    That doesn't mean segregating and creating ideology bubbles. Everyone can visit and be part of any, and can stay well away from the ones you know you don't like. Take /b/ for example: it is famous for having a certain demographic, and if you don't want to see it, you simply don't go there. It's not in your face, they're happy about not having "normies" there, you're happy about not having them in your digital home, every one wins. And if you're ever in a certain mood and would like to venture in the woods, it's there.

    The same set of rules can't fit all the possible users, purposes, times, etc. And although I also subscribed to the thought bubble theory , the counterargument that it's actually the opposite - the lack of "social glue" between participants in discussions, made a lot of sense to me.
