I’m from space!

Weird thing is that many American kids no longer do this in the suburbs, and it used to be very very common 30+ years ago.
I imagine that is a combo of helicopter parenting + American roads becoming less safe.


You’re looking at one incident, on one block, in the one city in America that is radically different than all of the others.
And that said, NYCs response times are around 10min, which is target that Germany also tries to hit. https://www.nyc.gov/assets/operations/downloads/pdf/mmr2025/2025_mmr.pdf


As a product designer, I’ve clocked in countless hours with many many design tools over the year. For raster, vector, page layout, solid modeling, ux, animation, you name it.
I desperately want GIMP to be my, and my design team’s, raster tool of choice. That said, the UX is still abysmal, it uses some bizarre UI patterns, and the UX hasn’t really evolved over the past two decades. There has been some projects to redo the UX, but they all seem to eventually die on the vine.
I would LOVE an OOS raster tool with GIMP’s feature set, and a decent interface.
My tool of choice is Photopea at the moment. The ads are horrible, but it has a broad feature set, is free, and appears to be coded by a single workhorse dev who has basically cloned photoshop as a web app.

These things are usually pretty high up. The camera in my neighborhood are about 15ft / 4.5m up. When one goes down, they have to queue up for a truck to be sent out.


Paint can be seen by passers by. A fried sensor can’t.


lol, who is the one person downvoting technology advancements designed to help the blind?
Agreed. I’m just saying that I’ve seen behavior burby places change, even when the demographics, parks, and schools reminded similar.
