In the Silicon Valley - Cities designed by code monkeys



Photo: Isaac Porras


Sometimes in this land of innovation it sure feels as if cities are designed by coders; and bikeways and sidewalks are designed in the form of a badly designed subroutine.

Proceed to next pedestrian obstacle;
If
         Obstruction =1;
Then "Deviate path around workaround";
Else
        "Try playing tag with car traffic";
Endif
Proceed through massive Silicon Valley corporate campus parking lot;
/* Feel small and forgotten, at least until you get back on the bus later this evening*/
