The easy, low-cost solution is to build freight rail. But no, that's communism and it doesn't get a tech billionaire their extra billion.

Rails are indeed one of the cheapest, best scaling, and most reliable ways to move goods no doubt, but it also has a last mile problem.

Just wanted to point out the solution isn’t as easy as “rails all things”. Trucks still do offer some situational advantages, and will still have their place in logistics.

That is literally the most dangerous bike lane in existence

I saw the picture first and finished the headline in my mind:

A self-driving freight truck just drove across several cyclists

The cyclists were turned into butter
