  • During this time above ground passengers get in line to present tickets.

    So my first guess was correct, presenting tickets is done before even entering the platform. I can see it on regional trains with turnstyles in front of platform, but for international trains it is unusual. Usually tickets are presented on platform right in front of train.

    Platform for amtrak at Penn Station/Moynihan:

    Interesting... Looks smaller than I expected.

    No-no-no. They have worse quality control than even roscosmos, which is huge anti-achivement. I'd rather trust Rogozin personally, than boeing managers. At least we know on which dacha he stores stolen money.

  • Instead you get this queue for 1 train boarding on track 13/14. (it is worse if there's multiple trains boarding simultaneously):

    First of, are people waiting for boarding here or what? I see all of them are in standing pose. To board a train they need to be on platform where train is, not in the middle of hall.

    Edit: also I don't think people understand the scale of NYC's population and train rider ship. Moynihan ridership is 8 million annually.

    IT IS SO TINY! Even Kursk train station had 12 million of annual "far"(national+international) ridership in 2018. You can add 59 million annual ridership of regional trains on it. Or consider Yaroslavl train station annual ridership of of 6 and 72 millions respectively.

    And while seating there sucks too, at least there is no requirement to have ticket.

    Edit 2: In this thread people that don't understand the difference between Amtrak, regional commuter trains, or subways

    I presume Amtrak is how americans call (inter)narional trains.

    If something similar had been caused by an OSS component, we would see congress discussing a ban on open software in critical infrastructure already.

    ScyllaDB's Glauber Costa explains how two new APIs, io_uring and eBPF, are changing the fundamental nature of Linux programming.

But also expand on why he is right. Linux AIO is indeed rigged with problems and limitations:
