no no no, its not a critique specifically of you. Native english speakers do this all the time. And I’m sure its inevitable that “comparatively” will make that transition too.

I’m interested: is there a german word to replace "vergleichsweise " to more explicitly mean “comparison”?

True, true…

Aside: Back in my day, we could use the term “relatively” to mean “in relation to” some other thing. Over time it became “in relation to the average thing” instead of a specific thing. Now it just means “a little bit”/“sort of”. Now people use “comparatively” to convey what “relatively” used to mean. Except… you just now seem to be making that same “relatively” transition with the word “comparatively”. I just find language interesting, and wonder what the next “relatively” will be once that meaning has been lost even to “comparatively”.

There are 2 types of people, the 2/3 year people, and the 20-life people. 10 is a lot to the 2/3 year people… but not to the others

With a less car-centric design, you probably wouldn’t have to live so far from work and there’d be more space and money for improved public transit efficiency. Hypothetically speaking… of course this will never actually happen. We’ll just keep making larger and larger roads, spreading out farther and farther, and requiring more people to drive further, increasing the demand for more larger roads. But of course certain kinds of work would never be put in the middle of a city, and would be less efficient to get to as a result.

In my city, though, a nice possible medium is bike + transit. Usually this enables much more efficient use of public transit. Instead of Walk - wait - bus - wait - bus - walk its more like ride - wait - bus - ride. Cutting out that transfer and increasing the speed of getting to and from the transit line makes for much more efficient mobility, even on moderate length trips.

Even if it’s a link to a tool, not a specific piece of content?

Bikeable cities, e-bikes, public transit, and of these or combinations really should be enough for people to get around a city.

lol, such wholesomeness

The difference would really just be where to click, and whether you have to have the bookmarks bar enabled. I usually have mine set to only show on the new-tab page.

You could put this in a button and inject it into the google page with a user script extension right?

That might get closer to what OP wants

It takes so much work to successfully pull off sarcasm in text. I’m still working on it, it’s a craft I hope to master some day.

Basically, horrible operating system.

I learned enough to see how powerful it was, then started using it within Sublime Text to edit data from time to time. (Extract URLs or something from a websites code, reformat X or Y data for a script I’m hacking together) and I’ve slowly retained more and more of the elements I repeatedly use. I think I’ve actually got a pretty good grasp on it. Maybe you should be using it more.
