People are free to choose not to run red lights.

Oh yeah, I definitely agree that it's an undesirable housing option, and that it shouldn't be a priority to grow it into the future. The problem is that in cities that have regulat…

I think it's not about the properties of land and water per se, so much as avoiding flying over populated areas where it can be observed directly.

I mean hey, while we're violating international norms... > The biggest conventional munition they have

> Do people abuse the process? Sure, some do. They get away with it at most once, because...there's a record of it all in housing court and eviction proceedings are pretty much a d…

As a YIMBY, ADUs are an introductory "first step" policy that should obviously be legal, but were never expected to have any real effect. True YIMBY policy would be zoning for six-…

Absolutely, yes. Everyone who voted for Jill Stein is a de facto Trump supporter even if they won't admit it to themselves.

When properties in Florida become uninsurable due to climate change: Haha those stupid Republican climate deniers should have known better than to build their homes in a disaster a…

> I would guess that the association to Quotations from Chairman Mao Zedong was intentional but he just said that for plausible deniability. Yeah, I mean "Every Chinese citizen has…

Not really. Mao's book has been known as the "Little Red Book" in English for decades, well before the app existed. And the characters for "小红书" directly and literally translate to…

However, for any Chinese people who also know English, the association is obvious. I asked an actual Chinese person about 小红书 and they assumed I was talking about Mao's book until …

I like the clean futuristic aesthetic of glass towers. I think a lot of the opposition comes from people who dislike that it represents a building that is obviously new and well ma…

OK, so it's "just" systematic racial discrimination then.
