What are some techniques to control car drivers inside cities in order to make thigns safer for cyclists and pedestrians?

Heres a few I know
>wide roads make drivers want to go faster: IE if you make a road have space for 150% of the width of a car they will go faster than if its just 110%
>tighter roads make drivers wanna go slower
>obstacles placed on a road to force cars to slow down and turn in a straight road help too
what else? i love all the measures that don't involve speed bumps.
I think its better to make the driver FEEL like he has to go slow, rather than making him feel like hes being forced or nagged to go slow

If buildings in Venice are crumbling at the foundation because of the waves from speed boats, why don't they build deep metro below the lagoon to move people and goods within Venice and to and from the mainland and completely ban boats?

Venice is a meme town. It’s just a giant swampy tourist trap with old buildings in it. The only reason it exists is because a thousand years ago or so the locals would save themselves in that swamp from the hordes of invaders or something. Today it’s just a quirky but dangerous museum. People shouldn’t be living there anyway. They should just evacuate anything of value and let the old buildings slowly sink and return to the sea. Keep the boat tours but don’t let people walk there due to danger.

Every year the population of Venice (the island portion) drops by 1,000. Within 50 years the permanent population will cease to exist.

i don't know a ton but iirc when you have muddy places like that usually there isn't accessible bedrock and the mud is on top of gravel and soft stone

>>2059308
akshually it exists because a thousand years ago some rich bankers moved there because taxes were low and power projection onto it was minimal so they then started financing mercenaries and making bank basically being Medieval Blackwater

The pedals are called ”spank spoon” I think, and the crankset is pic related.
Plenty of old campag, sugino and other track bike cranks out there with the same look.

It does not matter what they call anything. Picrel has no borders whatsoever. It's just a population density heat map of China (and the US, which is included only incidentally because I don't feel like making a new one.)

NTA; my understanding is that the rural Chinese small farmer is on its way out.
The American small farmer died out during the farm crisis of the 80s and 90s, which explains the lack of density in American rural areas.

This isn't the explanation.

First, lower density in the US isn't limited to rural areas. The cities themselves are far less dense than pretty much anywhere else in the world (especially East Asia). NY City is the only truly dense city in the US, and a few others are somewhat dense (Boston metro, San Francisco). Urbanists like to claim the US is "densifying" as they flood 3rd worlders into the country, waging soft war on China's behalf, but it's nothing like Asia.

Second, the effect you describe, while true, isn't large enough to really show up on that particular map. Relative to the rest of the world the US has ALWAYS been less dense.

The truth is that the US has just, historically, had an enormous amount of valuable and habitable land relative to its population size and technological power level. Americans had plenty of room to spread out everywhere east of the 100th meridian, where the Chinese (along with most of East Asia) did not, with substantial populations crammed into much smaller geographical areas. In 1850, there were some 400+ million people in China already, vs 20-25 million in the United States.

The most substantial migrations in the US in the last 100 years have been from the denser Northern cities and the "Rust Belt" into the south and "Sun Belt." Contrast Buffalo, NY with Phoenix, AZ. This was also coupled with growth of suburbs, so some cities proper may have seen stagnant or declining populations even as their metro areas as a whole were booming. Again this is due to the ease of expanding outward in most of the US. Places like Dallas, TX or Atlanta, GA aren't hemmed in by any major geographical features (mountains, oceans, deserts) and can grow in 360 degrees. It's usually easier, cheaper and more desired to build out rather than build up, and it's been that way for a very long time.

See my nuts, AA191 was done in by the left wings slats/flaps retracting, UPS2976 was done in by the #2 engine compressor stalling, if not failing entirely. Notice how the NTSB notably says nothing about the #2 motor, because they're duking it out internally on how to deal with the problem. Neither root cause is the pylon, stop watching tikslop.

Standard engine startup procedure for all jets I'm aware of is to crank engine #1 from the APU, then bleed air to engine #2, #3, etc. to start them. I wonder if there's some defect with the starter.

Not quite, unless there's a specific aircraft/operator I haven't heard of, if the APU is fully functional, you'll start all motors off the APU bleed. The APUs are always turning 100% RPM for the generator frequency and max bleed pressure, where most engines have to increase above idle power to provide enough crossbleed to start another motor. Compounding this is that jet engines at idle always burn more fuel than the APU, jetblast risks of standing up a thrust lever on the ground, and the difficulty and risk of a crossbleed start while taxiing with an engine stuck at partial thrust, as opposed to just running the bleed from the APU.

idk how a potential starter defect would be relevant, but UPS MD11 procedure is to always reach max motoring speed before introducing fuel. I'd guess max motoring for them is something like Boeings, which is less than 1% N2 rise in 5 seconds.
