It is in fact a good idea, and it would probably generate a lot of insight. But it would be very politically dicey.

The main cause of the problem is probably the widespread availability of cheap processed food in the US and, increasingly, other rich countries. I would support regulating these foods, but that would be very politically difficult and it wou

"It's just one additional requirement; it won't break the bank"....this logic, applied over and over by building construction regulators for the past few decades, is an underappreciated but important contributor to the h

What's interesting is that this huge change in design technology has produced no similarly huge change in the physical product being designed. Buildings are designed and built at about the same speed as they were then. They cost as muc

1-10 per 10,000 seems like a fairly high number if it's "associated with high mortality".

See my other comment. Modular is somewhat better in some cases, but not dramatically better, which is why it has gained a certain share of the market but not the majority of it. Modular is mature technology and would have taken over the who

PlanGrid is typical of the successful construction tech startups in that it addresses the way that information is transmitted during projects without impacting the actual way that buildings are physically assembled.

That is true of "manufactured homes", a.k.a. "trailers", but not of "prefab" or "modular" homes, which are built using the same components as conventional homes.

by 015UUZn8aEvW 3y ago
Typically these are called "modular homes" in the US. They've been around for quite a while and do make up a certain portion of the new home construction, though not the majority. This approach is not quite as efficient as it

There's a long list of construction startups who thought the industry was low-tech simply because everyone in it was dumb, and that they would be the smartest guys in the room who'd revolutionize everything. Those startups are pre

I think you overstate how much the lab leak and the bioweapon stories were being conflated. I recall that most people were able to distinguish between them, and that the most prominent figures raising red flags about a potential leak weren&

When you observe school policy debates at the local level, you come to realize that, for many parents, school's main function is free daycare for the kids so that they can go to work. Remote school doesn't help much on that front.
