This thing can be true an it may as well be false.
An anonymous guy telling things that we have been hearing for years and absolutely no proof (what about a list of those fake accounts? Or any analysis?).
I will ignore this until something more concrete comes out. And i think everybody else should too.
C'è gente in giro con ego gonfiati in maniera impensabile. Per fortuna l’informazione decentralizzata ce l'abbiamo già noi, qui
Spero possa raggiungere più persone possibili, anche se mi rendo conto che è un articolo talmente lungo che pochi vorranno affrontarlo.
C'è da dire che Cory Doctorow scrive in maniera non noiosa, anzi divertente. E colorita dove serve! (Non ho mai scritto tsnte volte merd* in vita mia 😁)
Ho donato, sperando che il personaggio possa dedicarsi in modo più costante al fediverso. E magari farsi aiutare un po'.
Grazie per la segnalazione!
Neanche io, ma sono andato a controllare 😉,
Yes, but
Similar to our study, commuting by bicycle has previously been associated with a higher risk of hospital admission after a transport related incident in comparison to non-active commuting modes, and consistent with our findings, this study also showed that commuters who cycled to work had a lower risk of CVD, cancer, and death compared with non-active commuters. Other studies have confirmed that the health benefits of cycling are much greater than the risk of injuries.
Troppo cinico forse dici?😁
Come diceva Andreotti: "a pensar male degli altri si fa peccato, ma spesso si indovina"
Per quanto disprezzassi il personaggio, era molto intelligente e sapeva colpire nel segno...
I mean this is the point. If you commute by buìike you get your share of phtysica excecise. Correlation and causation
From the article:
The significant contribution that active commuting makes to total physical activity may explain the positive associations active travel has had with health outcomes. One study found a 44% increase in physical activity levels in individuals who walked to work compared with those who travelled by car. Another Scottish study estimated that 46.5% of all active commuters in 2001 met a daily target of 30 min of moderate intensity activity from their commute alone. Our study did not account for physical activity unrelated to active travel and this may partially explain the larger reduction in all-cause mortality risk associated with cyclist commuting compared with other studies.
E' discutibile solo se si crede veramente che lo scopo sia la sicurezza stradale
Invece tutto diventa chiaro se il punto di vista è quello politico: La Lombardia può dire che ha investito in sicurezza stradale (ma una somma ridicola), ACI ha fatto sicurezza stradale (incassando), gli elettori della giunta sono contenti perché possono prendersela con pedoni e ciclisti
sorry about that, it's really not funny when this happens.
but actually the data bout death from all causes includes that possibility
Morover:
Cyclist commuters, compared with non-active commuters, were associated with an increased risk of hospitalisation after a traffic collision (HR 1.98, 95% CI 1.59 to 2.48), although this was a relatively rare event (83 hospitalisations over 18 years).

In effetti...
Grazie delle dritte!
Wapo journalist verifies that robotaxis fail to stop for pedestrians in marked crosswalk 7 out of 10 times. Waymo admitted that it follows "social norms" rather than laws.
The reason is likely to compete with Uber, 🤦

Italy is a car infested country. I would love to know impressions of fellow users from other countries that visit Italy: do you see this?
We rank in the low part for public transport and rails (except high-speed trains). Which is not surprsing
Moreover, automotive industry is sinking in Italy, so there is not even the justification of helping "economy", for pushing on cars so much.
Finally, there are many more cars than car licenses in Italy. Which, IMHO, is completely absurd

People on bikes may be rude and may not follow the rules, but can't be aggressive.
When a man with a .45 meets a man with a rifle, the man with a pistol will be a dead man.

Edit: to clarify: the message in the ad is actually ironic/satirical, mocking the advice for cyclists to wear high-viz at night.
It uses the same logic but inverts the parts and responsabilities, by suggesting to motorists (not cyclists) to apply bright paint on their cars.
So this ad is not pro or against high-viz, it's against victim blaming

Actually the European Commission account is one of the most followed on the Fediverse.
At least some european institutions use european technology
