Grids were more efficient for pedestrians and unmotorized transport, but the caveat is that motorized transport, especially on large grids, will often be driving faster than is desired among the pedestrian traffic.
Which is why the ethos has changed off of grids to the windy, curvy roads that naturally encourage slower speeds…no straightaways to really build up speeds like you can with a grid.
Most town centers, which have likely existed before the car did in large numbers, are still laid out in a grid…but youll notice as you get farther out, when the neighborhoods started getting built in the post wwii era and the rise of the burbs, are not generally grids.
This is an easier way to eyeball how old a particular neighborhood is…with some caveats and exceptions of course.
A grid is still most efficient, but were trading efficiency for safety which is reasonable…weren’t too many idiots doing 60mph on 35mph city streets like we have today.

5·24 days agoDude never would I ever have dreamed I’d yearn for the days of 2 minute videos with notepad being used to communicate but here we are.
I wish DisplayPort would become the standard already. It’s superior in every way.
HDMI is the microUSB of the video world and I wish it would die already in lieu of DP and USB-C/ThunderBolt.
Hey at least you guys all have fact checkers in your pockets now lol
Imagine what this was like when we had to go to the library and find a book to prove them wrong lmao
This is my curse…I feel like Cassandra over here, seeing the ways that someone elses plan could go sideways, warning people around me that there is a chance that it goes sideways, they ignore everything I say, the plan goes sideways, and theyre all surprisedpikachu, waiting for me to step in and fix it all.
At home…at work…fucking A.
They got me on chrome with this. I fought with it for about an hour but if I was logged in, videos just would not load.
So back to Firefox I go wheeeee



Probably just upset because either he feels inadequate or the sight of it stirred feelings in him hes uncomfortable with.
