the second bank crisis in two years makes me think maybe you do know something. <https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-02-08/multi-fam...>

I believe OP is thinking more municipal pipes that feed individual buildings rather than a distribution pipeline like Keystone XL.

if anything it's the environmental and social impact of the mining of the minerals vs the disposal.

I think you are woefully ill informed in how even in the most abundant ecosystem humans use technology. Look up the fish traps in the pacific north west of the us. Or the use of fire to flush game in paleolithic time. Just because it's not a shiny iphone does not mean that ecological management is not a sophisticated technology that has been developed concurrently with human evolution.

there are around 200 times more gas stations currently than fast chargers so absolutely. The question that matters is if you replaced all of those with fast chargers would the accidents at fast chargers be worse than gas station accidents. I am not saying that is not the case and also like gas stations they will get safer over time.

The thing here though is the wage Apple thought they were paying was a good-ish wage, its lack of labor protection that allows the contractor to corruptly reduce it.

What I would even more like to see is municipal governments use this sort of a tool to identify areas for improvement.

i'd go further and say humans do not exist without technology. From fire to stone tools the relationship between human mind and technology as object and social construct is what humans are to the same degree as termites are their mounds.

right every charger would be like a high voltage substation, of course people have complained about the safety potential of every new innovation and for the most part they're tamed. Seems likely that people dying from stupid drivers will far exceed deaths from the charging infrastructure even of hydrogen or this very high current.

this is such an important point. A corollary that those who control the process in many ways can control or at least massage the outcome (cf. mitch mcconnell)

this is completely missing the point, people don't take chronic or slow-developing issues to the ER so they get worse and have catastrophic consequences resulting in both worse health outcomes and more expense because by the time they do come to ER it's a more serious intervention = $$$$

except we've had unambiguously massive economic growth the unending poverty (that I'd remind you has always been worse historically it's just below the poor back then were slaves or indentured servants) is a policy consequence of increasing the share of income paid to the wealthiest (by reducing their taxes and globalization undermining labor power).

this terrifies me, some crazy makes a gene drive super corn pathogen and civilization crashes.

very cool! this i imagine would be reasonably difficult but it would be interesting to see what the delta of registered voters or population. If a state has grown by 200000 hitting their 2016 number maybe is less significant.

From what I understand this is more of a concern in larger and especially multi generational families. You're absolutely right with only two there is less or no concern.

punk also has forever been an alternative and largely self propelled culture, from zines to food not bombs if the solar punk is sustainable societies built separate from mainstream destructive society i don't see how it isn't punk.

I'd like to believe the punk component is like DIY 3-d printing wind turbine arrays, setting up solar powered mesh networks financed by distributed cryptocoin miners.

begin? where have you been the last 3.5 years, the fbi building, his golf at his resorts, the turnberry airforce1 layovers. don is all con!

and importantly if it were a remote human who was alerted and put in control they'd be waiting to do it as their job and not the sleeping/drunk/texting driver in the vehicle

i doubt any plastics are going to come out of the heat you'd be running one of these at.

very very high costs, and although not horrible still comparatively significant efficiency losses, now when we get some superconducting wires

I was speaking with a land manager who was using these to dramatic results (80% vs 20% survival) in a very arid environment.

there already is an arms race look at the spending the new Chinese air craft carriers and anti satellite tests and the USAs continued monstrous military budget.

leak information = exist

not seeing one crisis doesn't mean they aren't better than chance. Also do you know that they didn't make some accurate prediction of XX% of a pandemic that was born out in this situation? No one is claiming to have a literal crystal ball.

you're missing the cause for the effect, multigenerational wealth is the source of inequality. Most generally in the fact the 'west' has been pillaging 'the rest' for 400 odd years.

basically any kind of distribution, trucking(food, medicine, everything else), electrical, water, sewer. manufacturing, agriculture, everything that lets you write your ____ question.

food nutritional quality i can afford the 1$ greaseslab but not the carrots

with shelter think about having to live farther from the business district spending more money on a longer bus to get to work.

cars i buy a junker cause that's all i can afford it breaks, i spend more money to fix it all because i couldn't afford the extra 1000 to buy a slightly more reliable car.

....

under the new paradigm what control remains independent of biological and evolutionary history?

not op but i find idiom or proper nouns can mess things up.
