It’s both liability and labor thing. When a tenant moves out, large apartment buildings change the lock. With an electronic lock any member of staff can ‘rekey’ the lock in a few seconds. For liability, the large companies use big key contr

Another way to look at it is that privileged people have had the ability to ruin the lives of the less privileged for a long time (see Emmett Till) and global communications has just democratized the process. It’s not good and I truthfully

It is a mess, but I hope you’re not saying that this is a new or recent phenomenon. Innocence in a legal sense has always been far removed from public opinion. The existence of things like the police blotter in local newspapers demonstrates

I thought Shanghai had a pretty interesting system — they’d put about 10 people at a time in a “pen” made of Tensabarrier, swab all 10 with the same sample thingy and then test it. Once it came back clean they’d release them and take anothe

If you’re looking for fast legislation, you have to ‘gut’ an existing bill because the CA constitution requires a 30 day wait after you introduce a bill (with an exception for budget bills).
