On the occasions you are moving something larger than can fit in the bike you can take a cab/rent a car or truck. If you are regularly transporting things larger than the cargo bike then perhaps you need a car but I guarantee you 99% of people are not moving 300L of sand every weekend.

Also adults and people older than 10 can ride their own bikes.

The Netherlands is also notoriously rainy and windy.

The point is you can replace 90% of your trips with a bike, not that you can never have motorized transport. 90% of car trips in America definitely do not need to be in a single occupancy vehicle/only need to be because we've put everything so damn far away from everything else to accommodate cars. The latter part of the second statement does not apply if you live in a pre mid 50s city

In Model B the product is a transaction network that is horribly inefficient in terms of $$$ transferred per unit of energy input. It probably makes sense to buy Cocaine (even then other cryptos are likely more efficient energy wise/secure) with Bitcoin, it doesn't make any sense to buy a car with it when there's already a banking system

Not every city in the world has to be like New York or San Francisco. Cars should be banned (more or less) in cities. And it should viable for someone to live in a city if they so choose or in a rural area with a car if they so choose. We're failing on both fronts really in America...

Everyone is standing on the shoulders of someone else.

For example, this is a post about bus branching: https://pedestrianobservations.com/2018/07/14/bus-branching/

There aren't even any Citibike docks near where I live but the utility in the city core is almost unmatched. Obviously there are situations where bike(+ bike shares) are less than ideal (ridership goes down in winter/rain/hot days/ect., disabled users) but they are a great boon to the mobility of people living in dense cities.

Specifically regarding yeast though, spontaneously fermented beers have very interesting and IMO delicious flavors going on, but it'd be impossible to make such beers on a Budweiser scale, by definition it's more of an art and not an industrial process.

To answer your most salient question(about whether it provides internet connectivity)

>We provide internet through peering at an internet exchange point. If you have line-of-sight to this “supernode” in downtown Manhattan you can have a fast, reliable connection with suitable hardware, and replace your ISP.
