I have some ideas I want to post on your personal webpage but you have not given me access. Why are you censoring me?

If they really want to free up the spot there’s a good chance the driver is closer than the tow truck.

Yeah it makes it easier. And I’m appreciative of the idea of making address entry easier for users but if they have to disambiguate did you actually make it easier? I think Zillow does it best. You just type your address in a box and it l

In Seattle there are 3-minute load/unload areas in the commercial pockets. This is a solvable problem. It’s not even hard.

Except when it isn’t. I’d be curious to know the population in areas where a zip code spans multiple counties.

Social awkwardness is not a medical condition. It may be that ASD leads to social awkwardness but that doesn’t mean social awkwardness is ASD.

Maybe so but that’s not clear from your comment which is why I asked for clarification. Clearly you’re unwilling or unable to provide that so there’s nowhere else for this conversation to go.

The problem with local apps is actually a problem with closed-source software. I refuse to rely on closed-source software to access my data because then I am beholden to the vendor of that software to access my data. It’s only slightly be

You have moved the goalposts from government institutions to political institutions. The department of education is not a political institution. USAID is not a political institution. The IRS is not a political institution. I have faith

You literally quoted (with a “>”) and replied to a comment with a highlighted (using italics) quote from the article and told the commenter they are incorrect.

Is autism a thing for dogs? I have literally never thought about this but I guess it could be a thing.

I think constantly repeating negativity that undermines faith in institutions and our ability to effect change is harmful because it’s self fulfilling. There. That’s an idea you can debate.

You don’t leave the bumpers out at all times. The decking and furniture are all built from suitable materials to not need additional protection. Phone cases are an anomaly.

Destroying the TSA is a specific goal. It’s not random destruction. It’s a specific redundant organization. I still don’t see why we should try to cut into the bone of our society. I see no benefit to careless destruction.

Capitalism is an economic system. It’s not a system of government. The government exists to solve the problems the economic system can’t. I think it’s dangerous to apply corporate management practices to the system that literally governs

I refuse the conclusion because the alternative is hopeless. Random destruction might be the best kind of destruction but that doesn’t mean destruction leads to efficiency. If politicians are inevitable why would what comes next be any les

Agreed. But while I agree political operators corrupt all objective processes I refuse to conclude that we should cause random destruction instead.

Well if our choice is a hypothetical fire all the political operators or fire randomly then random will leave more political operators.

I don’t see the problem. You explained the risks, leadership said they accept those risks. What was supposed to be done differently?
