That’s not how human behavior works…

Someone thinks they’re very clever and they aren’t.

I’m imagining an A-10 in a Eurovision outfit now…

Where I am you’re almost never the only delivery.

They do make multiple deliveries per trip…

Which is about how AI targeting goes these days.

Facial recognition is pretty easily tricked though. Just because it’s working on the Russians does not mean it will work everywhere.

I’m fully aware of what drones are capable of.

Unless it’s set to shoot at anything moving it’s going to be pretty shit. And once the targeting is that wide open you just get a tennis ball machine and waste it’s ammo.

Yeah there’s a few ways to do it. I won’t complain about how it happens.

I’ve been saying it for years. We need to give HUD 500 million dollars (to start) and immunity from all but federal environmental laws. They drop apartment buildings in the highest cost markets with prices set to repay HUD over 50 years, cover maintenance, and two remodels in that time period. And the rent is of course nearly stabilized because it’s not seeking a profit. Then use the near guaranteed asset income to finance the next wave of buildings.

Just start dropping fucking anchors into the market.

They need to do the same thing for groceries too. Starting in food deserts, then monopoly areas, then high cost of living areas. Americans think they would hate it but in reality there would be literal fights to get those apartments.

Medicare Advantage took the house. Medicaid is the government run healthcare for poor people, and normal Medicare is the government run healthcare for old people. Medicare Advantage is the private plan for old people being paid for with a reverse mortgage. After they die the health insurance and the bank get to fight over the house.

Even the builder’s remedy isn’t going to solve homelessness or bring prices down much though. They still need to sell those properties, which means they need to have a price point that makes it profitable to build. So the law of supply and demand actually prevents them from building enough housing because if the price starts to go down they just stop building.

Because they aren’t competing in the way free market ideologists say they should. It generally takes a 200 level economics class less than a day to figure out a price cartel is far better for the companies involved. I’m sure the professionals have their back channels and third party price consultants already figured out.

Which then becomes a way to influence opinion.

Can Obama Really Reform Healthcare?

Is Trump’s Infrastructure Week Here?

Can Biden Make EVs Work?

The answer should be Fuck You, I’ll go read a different source on this topic.

How much is impatient people and how much is the content creator not understanding how to do a hook at the beginning?

That’s normal though. I mean it shouldn’t be, but they always go as hard as they can hoping you’ll plead guilty to avoid a trial. When they say the death penalty is meant to dissuade criminals, they know it doesn’t work on crimes. It works on getting guilty pleas.

My parents have been very clear, there is no inheritance. I love them but when we were young adults they bought into the idea that getting college degrees would set us up for life and they decided to coast on their early retirement instead of buying property and getting real assets to hand down.

Yup we just need to travel back in time, attend a select private university, have parents who can give us a living space until we save up for a house, and get a job directly into the C-Suite off the networking from that private university. It could totally happen! We don’t need any workers, everyone can be in the boardroom!

The entire article is more than mildly infuriating. They’re interviewing the well connected and winners of the economic lottery. Furthermore there’s no mention at all of what that period of depressed earnings does to long term financial gains. With bias like this I don’t even trust their numbers for things like adults reporting they’re doing okay. Another day, another bullshit piece of economic propaganda.

Sigh, I’ll be in the bar with a bottle of whiskey.
