That and they dont want butt dialing 911 to be easy

It's not "don't tread on us"

  do not have the money to invest in developing a camera system that is sovereignly owned by the city

Nimbyism is generally against a public good (low income housing, powerlines, etc)but there is nothing public or good about this.

Calling this nimbyism is billionaire psyop lol

Slavery isn't a single mechanism, rather a system of many things that keep it all running smoothly

Unfortunately not when convincing a large populace..

  those would imply inflation was nearly 100% between the end of GFC and before the pandemic

Streaming services, diapers, energy, etc. the list is long if you look deep enough

That's done quietly behind the scenes so leaders can blame something else for inflation.

See "M2SL" or "TOTBKCR" on tradingview if you want to see inflation live.

  How does creating wealth hurt others?

A good doc on this subject: https://machines.cargo.site/

Dupont, WA is another

A Google API?

  You need to be checking every thing it does.

This is also why I don't see it getting better anytime soon. So many people ask me "how do you get your claude to have such good output?" and the answer is always "I paid attention and spotted problems and asked claude to fix them." And it's literally that simple but I can see their eyes already glazing over.

Just as google made finding information easier, it didn't fix the human element of deciphering quality information from poor information.

You've mistaken indifference with inability. The government can absolutely get something done very quickly if certain people wish. There are numerous examples.

  the handful of sites you feel like you're stuck using for some reason

As someone who has written many docs, it's because 99% won't read it (rightfully so if it's verbose). You can turn that doc into a skill in a repo and Claude will read it everytime it's needed.

  I would think, the golden age of criminal hacking is drawing to a close. This assume companies smart enough to do this however.

Communication technologies have been evolving for billions of years

Thank you, it's really crazy to be see "it's sad that you want truth when ignorance makes me happy" being upvoted on this platform. I suppose it's par for the course on a VC forum..

Any "private" space in a public place becomes valuable with more density. It's basic scarcity incentives. It unfortunately incentivizes hooligans to make the restroom appear even more disheveled and unsafe to increase the privacy (less people want to go in it)

Great point, if the only constant is change, then philosophy should follow (or lead).

We all perform everyday. Those performances eventually become our identity and influence our actions.

  want to give other nice people the benefit of the doubt

Things that have never happened with USD. Glad we have a truly clean pure money that is incorruptible unlike bitcoin.

Likely because they are fully aware of the power dynamics in a job and understand of when they are being taken advantage for performative theater.

Am all for it if law enforcement were held to the same standards. Plenty of cases where LE murder is simply not enforced. Thus LE becomes a haven for those seeking impunity and ability to nefariously track anyone.

The assembly line has been mass producing ready-made products for over 100 years and yet product quality, material stability, aesthetic trends, and function design still dominate the purchasing decisions of the general public.

Being tapped into fickle human preference and changing utility landscape will be necessary for a long time still. It may get faster and easier to build, but tastemakers and craftsmen still have heavy sway over markets than can mass-produce vanilla products.

  computation — like speech and property — is a fundamental human right

I don't necessarily disagree with the idea, but until profit is shared with taxpayers, this is a one-way transaction of taxpayers bankrolling AI companies.

Sadly, "using the bathroom" will cause a more immediate visceral reaction for most people than "maliciously manipulating your entire life via ad networks and media".
