Don't think that adding driverless cars in the mix will increase the number of cars and taxi trips? You don't take it from me, take it from Uber cheering it on for this very reason: https://nyc.streetsblog.org/2026/04/17/waymo-means-way-mo-cars-according-to-uber-docs

Think they're better at following the law than human drivers? Waymo knows they block bike lanes too and doesn't care: https://road.cc/news/driverless-taxis-veering-into-cycle-lanes-normal-practice-says-waymo

I promised myself that I'd post about some of the pots I'm making this week, so here's a quick post about some starry sky hex cups that are secretly also glaze tests! Good luck in the glaze firing!

I haven't been making as much work as I'd hoped to be at this point, but I'm trying to be gentler with myself about that as there's little I can do about nasty chronic illness flareups! At least it seems like I won't have to wait as long to see how these new-to-me glazes will turn out on the hex cups as I likely will for doctors to get a handle on what's all going on now and why it's flaring up so badly.

NYPD and most traffic court judgesare largely unaware of this rule, despite years of reporting on the matter, and this has resulted in lots of bicyclists getting expensive tickets (nearly $200 for one "run red light") incorrectly for years.

Hell Gate has the latest reporting on this, which includes a judge noting that these tickets may all have been wrong since then: https://hellgatenyc.com/judge-upends-nypd-red-light-tickets-cyclists/.

I'm so glad to see this reporting, but also wondering what the fix is going to be. Will people's records get corrected? Will the nearly $200 fines be refunded?
