However noble, the risk I see is for untold man-hours and resources that will be expended on an ill-fated adventure. This project requires tons of positive tech-community spirit, which apple isn't exactly known for.

This is one of those things that sound interesting but only from a technical point. Why would anyone take on this level of risk? In a few years they will be complaining on HN about being kicked off Apple silicon.

It will be interesting to see what the new administration will do with this. The way I see it, this type of charge creates more headache and landmines for the incoming administration than it does for Facebook.

Its safe to assume that as usual Amazon, Pinkerton, the unions and NPR/journalists are all being shady for their own self-serving reasons. Also, its appears they are all in bed with each other anyway. Some of them are trying to appear

The cynic in me views this as yet another attempt at fethishizing nature by people who choose to live in sterile urban environments. The problem with this type of fetishization is that it eventually combines with class privilege to produce
