This is everything wrong with SF thinking. An app that can be as automated as possible, as impersonal as possible, but solve nothing because it doesn't actually facilitate anything. I suppose it could facilitate something: Oppressive governments might want something like this to help track the undesirables.
- halbritt 8y agoI'm not defending the practice, but it's disingenuous to suggest that it solves nothing. Ostensibly it's a means by which the city can determine which programs are most effective at getting the homeless population off the streets which I think is a laudable goal. As illustrated by the article, there's no shortage of money, but that money doesn't seem to be effective in addressing an issue that residents of the city are very concerned about.
