The current buildout of data centers has completely different relationships to the distribution of labor, transportation, energy, and capital, and that is expressing itself in new spatial relationships. That was always going to have to be renegotiated I don’t know what to tell you, bud.
Yes, I can imagine scenarios where having a gun is what keeps you safe. I can also imagine scenarios where having a kayak is what keeps you safe.
I think people need to understand that “how likely am I to be a target of violence” is different from “how likely is it that having a gun is what will protect me.”
yeah but this also resulted in those same normie republicans getting policy wins they had fantasized about for decade
me hearing that activism around the built environment doesn’t reflect a measured, internally consistent position on property rights and the powers of the regulatory state
watching you all argue about anti-data center activism
“The negative externalities of data centers are actually similar to a lot of existing and industrial activities!“ Cool and how did we decide on the spatial distribution of those activities? Presumably we just checked the rule book and everyone went along with what it said there no problem?
oh no what if we get everything we ever wanted but we get it uncouthly
knicks lost game 3 so oak could be there for the win
I think if you look at real people who have survived moments of dire political violence and persecution the trends are: they had money to bribe people, they had a network that was willing to take risks for them, and they left earlier or were willing to leave more behind when they did.
