The one time I'm happy that Toyota was so far behind the competition - I've a 2020 Prius and its infotainment looks a decade out of date but that means it's very offline.

Half of it seems to be just "crank up the shadow contrast even if that makes it look like crap".

With cryptographic systems like the EU uses, it must go through the government because a 3rd party can't implement that verification/response pattern without access to the proper gov't cryptographic secrets.

Honestly? State ID is better than the current solution which is giving Thiel-affiliated companies photo and other data.

Ideally I'd rather have a governments provided digital ID that's more secure and just gives the company limited metadata instead of full ID info provided from gov't to company. Put in rules requiring warrants or subpoenas for lookups.

Right. This is why my example wasn't the caregivers at the nursing home, it was the diaper laundry at the nursing home.

Okay I feel like the more basic question of "who washes the diapers at the assisted living home" in anarchism is more the thing, less about the "upend the system" stuff with every other revolutionary philosophy.

Every study that's been tried says that empty houses are overstated. I'm all for the socialist approach of taxpayer-funded government builders, but fundamentally you can't escape the actual cost of manpower and materials and wasted time caused by municipal barriers to housing.

Like, it looks like there's a zillion things under construction, but those are late in the massive lead-time of building. People inside the homebuilding industry say that the start of the pipeline has nothing coming, so in like 5 years we're going to be right back to "everything is expensive and nothing is under construction to solve that problem". And the reason for that is costs - the same costs that a government builder would face. Municipalities sucking up the productive effort into fees and obstructionism and delay.

I wonder how it would've gone if police hadn't thrown up their hands and said "Oh I guess we're not doing drug enforcement at all anymore"
