This is an extremely interesting post. It draws the same analogy between the 2020s and the 1970s that I've been thinking about for a while. Worth reading all the way through.

Back when the market was much less competitive if journalists wanted to control “the narrative” they could generally succeed, which made them seem trustworthy and authoritative.
Today’s media is better — you learn about the fuckups — so it seems worse.

Past EAs: Don't be ridiculous, Eliezer, as soon as AIs start to show signs of agency or self-awareness or that they could possibly see humans as threats, their sensible makers won't connect them to the Internet.
Reality: lol this would make a great search engine

Ive never had a strong opinion about single stairwells instead of the current double standards since its an architecture discussion but why are the vast majority of countries that do single stairwells have fewer fire deaths than the US which (most states) requires double stairs?

In building our EV charging network, we have to ensure that as many chargers work for as many drivers as possible.
To that end, @elonmusk will open a big part of @Tesla's network up to all drivers.
That's a big deal, and it'll make a big difference. https://t.co/hb6pyVhtbg

1:1 parking requirements are shockingly common in Europe. I suspect they can build underground garages so much more cheaply than us because they've oriented their entire construction industry around working with concrete, so finding labor is as simple as finding a framer in Texas
