This news threatens to suck

This news threatens to suck every bit of hope out of many a soul.

Blame lean manufacturing. A decadeslong effort to eke out more profit by keeping inventory low left many manufacturers unprepared when Covid-19 struck. And production is unlikely to ramp up significantly any time soon.

Boris Johnson is the lazy, over-confident middle school student who didn’t prep for the exam and is trying to fake his way through it https://t.co/wR12KHtOTC

This is the most explosive internal Facebook doc I've seen. Over the past 3 years, a junior data scientist with a talent for spotting fake accounts often found herself alone in trying to stop political manipulation in Honduras, Azerbaijan, and elsewhere. She was recently fired. pic.twitter.com/37X6N3ciEw

Note: Less than 1,5 % of the general population (in Germany) is a member of a political party. In the US, the figure is almost a quarter of the overall population being a member of one of the two big parties.

In reply to People can have hipster

Yglesias is a hypocrite on this. He grew up on the Upper East Side, which except for some high rises along its border, is exactly like a walkable small town. And then he moved to D.C. which in the good areas is a leisurely laid back city and without any tall buildings.

I didn't mean 1950's suburban developments.

People can have hipster starbucksing together without bustling metropolises of cranky people all crowded together in 10 and 20 story elevator buildings that require being crowded like sardines into mass transit, they already do on the Main Streets of many cool artsy walkable towns allover the east coast. Hudson, NY for example is way cooler than Manhattan. It started before covid. Even within NYC, the most hip neighborhoods like Bushwick in Brooklyn have a horizon with no tall buildings, 3 floors at most. Having a horizon is the key, so you don't feel cooped up in a vertical prison. Yeah to duplex kind of density, but no thanks to metropolises where loneliness has actually more often plagued people and then there's the logistics of getting all the stuff those people need to them has always been fraught with "traffic jams". It's actually absurd how getting to and from something like a doctor's visit takes a whole day. Speaking of doctors, the comparison is apt between how a patient is treated in a huge urban hospital and in a nice clinic that they drive up to.

Yeah sucks to be a place like Japan, as they aren't making any more land on this planet. They've had a super depression problem over it for decades.
