I was rushing earlier so didn’t post pics

I went from Bruxelles to Paris via Marne La Vallée today so as to check the suitability of the station there for Channel Tunnel services

The good news: there’s a platform that can be cordoned off, Lille Europe style

Less good: there’s either little or no stabling space south of the station. So you’d have to timetable fast turnarounds to use MLV

Nets separate passengers on escalators. TGV below stopped at the secure platform
Platform level - secure platform to the left

Tesla's 'V12' approach might change the way we think about safety in self-driving cars. James Douma explains how heuristic systems might fail dramatically, while neural networks could adapt like human reflexes. Dive into my article to learn more!

What are the implications of robotaxis?

@CernBasher did write a thorough analysis that I recommend in your attention. I want to take a critical look at his predictions and discuss the nuanced realities of such a transformative technology.

Basher, as an investment analyst, suggests that robotaxis might revolutionize the auto industry's business model, with Tesla positioned to gain significantly. He anchors his forecast on a detailed cost comparison.

As a transportation and urban planner, I look beyond one company or stock. The rise of robotaxis isn't just a corporate shift—it could be a paradigm shift, reshaping urban planning and our societal fabric.

History reminds us: Paradigm shifts reshape society. The early 20th Century’s move from steam to oil and internal combustion engines was revolutionary. We're on the brink of another such shift with robotaxis.

Owning a vehicle is the norm in today's paradigm, but it's a costly and rigid practice. The shift away from ownership promises to disrupt this, fundamentally changing our interaction with personal transport.

Robotaxis may reduce our need for parking, opening space for greener, more livable cities. Yet, they could increase traffic with empty rides. Let's embrace this flexibility, maybe favoring bicycles for shorter trips.

Robotaxis are more than a travel convenience; they'll redefine our destinations and ripple through finance, real estate, and travel sectors. Anticipating these widespread impacts calls for thoughtful dialogue as we step into the unknown.

In mijn leven heb ik een ontwikkeling doorgemaakt.

  1. Alles gaat de goede kant op dus als ik doodga leven we in het paradijs.

  2. Er gaan best veel dingen fout, dus laten we ons best doen om ervoor te dragen dat we, als ik doodga, het paradijs hebben gerealiseerd.

@MennoOng We hebben een periode voor ons die, qua impact, tenminste vergelijkbaar is met de periode 1940 - 1945.

En dat is zeker niet een prettig vooruitzicht. Behalve dan dit: dat je kennelijk gedachte nummer (1) ná 1945 hebt kunnen hebben…

De NS wentelen verlies af op de gebruikers, terwijl de kwaliteit naatje is. Nationaliseer de NS, zorg voor financiering. Zonder goed vervoer lijden we uiteindelijk méér schade.

(Bedenk eens hoe vreemd het zou zijn als we autowegen verzelfstandigden.)

Hoog tijd voor “management” of “agent” software, die het afstemmen van jouw elektriciteitsgebruik op het beschikbare aanbod kan afstemmen.

Dat alles handmatig afstemmen is niet te doen. Ik zou bijna zeggen: dat is een onethische verdere belasting van een toch al overbelast mensenvriend.

Dat betekent dus gewoon ALLE parkeerplaatsen van een laadkabel voorzien. Computertje d’r achter die bepaalt wanneer jouw auto aan de beurt is. En als je wegrijdt heb je een lekker volle accu.
