That is less an inherent property of density and more a property of Seattle's moronic lack of petty crime enforcement.

The example from University is not a good one. There are bright and not-so-bright young people too, but older people typically have fewer misgivings about asking "dumb" questions that may have obvious answers.

I just rented an apartment in Seattle and was surprised by the apparently high vacancies (many units in buildings we looked at were not rented but also not on the market). Would love to learn more about this software.

What area is this?

I agree with you but the political/legal hurdles to doing this legally are substantial (it's basically impossible, or at least relatively uncontrollable). How might you do this without a legal breakthrough?

How could this be implemented without a political breakthrough (which I think is probably impossible)?

Are there any moonshot ideas that could dramatically (say 50%+) decrease the cost of rent? Including ideas that are probably-illegal but could see mass consumer adoption before they could be stopped (like Uber)?

$1500 is nothing if it makes remote collaboration competitive with IRL collaboration.

Correct. The last professions in the world to be automated will be salesperson, politician, and plumber.

As you say though, the cost is all the difference. Is business class the correct proxy?
