I had the same experience with OSM maps years ago, but you’ve convinced me to give it another chance. I’m looking forward to seeing if it handles public transport in Vancouver as well as Google Maps does.

Could be, for sure. I may try to post some things from Lemmy.ca to Kbin later. I was successful in posting from Kbin to Lemmy.ca a few hours ago, so I wonder if there’s a problem in the other direction.

I’m not particularly concerned with how “the kbin user base” looks or any silly tribalism like that tbh. I’m just wondering if/why the issue might be happening. If the string doesn’t appear in the git repo, that’s a useful data point for sure. But plenty of people are confirming that something is going on, so the questions as to 1) what is causing it and 2) why are still out there.

Lee’s is basically the sweet spot of flavour vs affordability for me. I can’t speak to Cartem’s, I don’t have the money to justify the cost.

I don’t know. There seems to be some openness on Mastodon to bots that are properly labelled as such, in my experience. I’d say open a bot account here and use it to give the crossposting a shot. Anyone who doesn’t like it can easily block the bot account and move on with their day.

Gorsuch is a mixed bag at best on a lot of issues, but he has been as good as anyone could expect on Indigenous issues. Check out his concurrence in this case (starting on PDF page 43), which straightforwardly grapples with the history of forced family separations and residential schools.

Ah, I see. I mean, I don’t know that you really need to create it on this instance. Though I get why this would be a natural home for it!

Be the change you want to see in the world.

(I’m partly kidding – there are a ton of communities I’d like to see carry over from Reddit to here, but I don’t bother because I don’t have bandwidth to be a mod. So I get it. But if you have time, feel free to make the communities yourself!)

A good reminder not to let one’s intrusive thoughts win

They aren’t “second-guessing the engineer.” Again, no parking analysis has been completed. They’re asking questions that are appropriate to ask.

I’m not sure what the skytrain being there in a literal sense makes as a difference

I’m only saying that proximity to the SkyTrain would seem to this layperson to reduce the need for so many spots relative to the number of units planned for the development (1612 spots for 1466 units, along with 1000+ more for businesses). Councillors are asking the same question, so I don’t think it’s out of bounds to speculate that this much parking may be a bit excessive.

But what do your engineering numbers say?

No need to be a jerk. BTW, the article says that a parking analysis for the project has not yet been completed.
