Re: A thread for things that don't warrant their own thread
About the time I think my industry is dangerous I hear stories about office jockeys with their bodies falling apart and wonder if risking my fingers is better or worse than some of the medical stuff you white collar guys go through. It's definitely dangerous, in the long run, to sit in a chair all ...

While this sounds great in concept it’s not nearly that simple and, taken to this extreme, it would result in almost immediate disaster. You need infrastructure to support whatever is built.

You just need to build as many units as possible. 90% of America is zoned to single family housing, even in the most in demand and dense locations in the country. It's a wasteful and inefficient use to public resources. All in the name of racism and traffic. Allow property owners to build three or ...

Seems like a noble endeavor.
