<p>and also, practice really matters. A few years ago I decided that I was tired of putting my foot down and that I would rather just balance, and now, <a href="https://vimeo.com/1099060663" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">vimeo.com/1099060663</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p>I'm still working on my rollback, it's not very good.</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@whitequark" class="u-url mention">@<span>whitequark</span></a></span> you too can be a morally questionable lesbian if you truly not believe.</p>
<p>Daughter's video editing project freezes Shotcut on her laptop dead. We tried opening it on mine, which has beefier hardware and runs Linux, and saw it can push those pixels around just fine. So now I'm resorted to tooting from my phone, until she finishes...</p>
<p>and yes EC teaches important stuff, like "think about what the other party can see and where they are looking", and they are very gung-ho on learning snap turns, but, sure, those are part of what the autopilot does, they got trained in.</p><p>Drivers do the same wrong thing -- I have at least one video of someone honking when they should have been braking, and their reaction time was shit, by the time they honked, the bozo-on-a-bike was out of their path.</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@ericphelps" class="u-url mention">@<span>ericphelps</span></a></span> sounds to me as a good a reason as any :-)</p>
<p>the scofflaw, because The Law is Important and Needs To Learn A Lesson, instead of, "hey, let's not crash".</p><p>And so what I wonder is, are the Effective Cyclists intentionally training themselves out of learning crash-avoiding reactions? Or is it the case that I am cognitively able to read all the movements and put myself in a tiny space and make room, and so I don't need "the rules" to deal with these situations, and they either aren't able, or never trained that ability up? ...</p>
<p>reactions seem to get faster and more fluid, they're complex, perfectly executed, and I don't even have to think, they just happen.</p><p>At the same time, on Other Social Media I see other cyclists, similar age, but never quit being effective, absolutely ranting about "terrible cyclist behavior" that they see, and in one video w/ a wrong way cyclist, rather than slowing or avoiding (there was plenty of room, at least it seemed to me) he actually kinda swerved towards him, as if aggressive to ...</p>
