As many of you know, the third party iPhone/iPad app Metatext is no longer being maintained as the lead developer had health issues. However, there is now a community-maintained version of the app called Feditext. You can follow the latest news about it at:

➡️ @Feditext

It’s not yet in the Apple app store, but it is currently being tested through Test Flight.

Techy people can see the source code of the project at https://github.com/feditext/feditext

Incredible example of car brain from the @nytimes

Since all the collisions mentioned involve children, the author decided the problem must be ebikes.

Not the drivers who hit the children.
Not the mutli-ton vehicles that make collisions deadly.
And not the DOTs that knowingly design deadly streets.

Nope, it’s the ebike.

It's Shabbat, but I'm online today. I think the heatwave is supposed to break within the next couple days but until it does we're keeping the bedroom air off and sleeping in the living room and both trying to keep our sleep schedules from getting screwed. So I'm trying to stay awake.
