Luke Kanies @hachyderm.io I’m a tech founder and recovering SysAdmin. I helped found DevOps and grew up in open source. These days I am convalescing from a decade of physical and mental neglect while running Puppet.
I sometimes write about startups, founders, and other topics I like.
I am an angel investor, mostly in areas of expertise (infrastructure and dev tools) and interest (local first software and power tools).
I am generally default-accept on first conversations.
@peterme @notjustbikes @fuckcars Planet of Cities was good:
https://www.lincolninst.edu/publications/books/planet-cities
It’s been a while since I read it, but I seem to recall it dramatically leveling up my understanding of what cities were for, and therefor how to think about planning 5rm.
I also recommend Four Lost Cities:
https://wwnorton.com/books/four-lost-cities
More history than planning, but you learn a lot about people through these old dead cities.
