@ProfSchleich Making it marginally easier to hail a cab is a trivial problem; making it easier to build more and cheaper apartments is not at all trivial. But in principle, easier cab-hailing should make the important thing easier. In practice, the rules don't allow that. — PolitiTweet.org

@ProfSchleich Similarly, I used to be optimistic that Uber would be boost transit ridership. By making it easier to cover edge cases without owning a car, Uber would make it more common to not own a car and then you use transit for everyday trips. But all the parking is still required! — PolitiTweet.org

@ProfSchleich And of course I could give you another thread about my ongoing struggle to install solar panels on my roof with my own money. Point being, if we adopt a policy paradigm that says "the built environment can't ever change" well then *of course* it's hard to make progress. — PolitiTweet.org
