Nowhere close to 100%. Even on the Yamanote Line (Tokyo's central loop) you will find stations with stairs only exit A, and one elevator that goes to exit B, leaving you in a part of town where you can't get to A without using stairs outside the station.

Good point, and yes, the cities are comparable in population, around 100 - 200k.

This was such an unusual thing for me coming from Germany to Italy. The Bus driver would stop at seemingly random places to pick up or drop people off. Once he stopped at the cafe to pick up his newspaper!

I wish this were/is true, that Apple supports Wine development. But as far as we know, a year from now Apple will end Rosetta 2 support in macOS 28, and with it the ability to run Wine.

“Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance” is a good read on the topic of Quality.

The animations in your short video do in fact look more orderly and less chaotic. Could it be that Apple was using AppKit in Sonoma and switched to SwiftUI now?
