Solution to the childcare affordability crisis is for AI to put all us white-collar knowledge workers out of a job so we end up taking care of building tradespeople's kids for minimum wage. — PolitiTweet.org

@RogueWPA @eigenrobot Those people are crazy but that has nothing to do with YIMBY, which is the idea that people who own land should be able to build stuff on it without asking their neighbors for permission. — PolitiTweet.org

YIMBYs like all people have their flaws, but I actually think this has been an extraordinarily successful movement across its first years — securing electoral wins, legislative wins, and significant amounts of bipartisan support in a polarized era. https://t.co/Df2M4B5V4f — PolitiTweet.org

I hope that what happens is everyone implements YIMBY policy ideas, which would both greatly improve the economic situation of most Americans and also kill off the putatively annoying YIMBY subculture. https://t.co/I0EEbSaEKE — PolitiTweet.org

A good deal of evidence for various forms of discrimination in traffic stops. It's one of the reasons automated enforcement is good. But then of course you need cops to enforce the rules against fake or obscured plates. (this is me back from vacation and back on my bullshit) — PolitiTweet.org

Like, yes, if you relax the requirement that all the power come from wind and solar that greatly reduces the land use requirements. That's exactly the point — hence the call for environmentalists to open their hearts to nuclear, geothermal, and carbon capture. https://t.co/SPUwCR7ngK — PolitiTweet.org

I don't really get this piece. It purports to debunk concerns about the land use requirements of a 100% wind/solar grid, but the scenario it discusses is one that includes nuclear, gas, and carbon capture — so what are we arguing about? — PolitiTweet.org

I think it continues to be somewhat underrated (though not by the authors of this book) the extent to which the Great Awokening got supercharged as a matter of fairly cynical anti-Bernie primary politics. https://t.co/TlHUkCiNXe — PolitiTweet.org

The economy can adjust to this surge in housing demand over time (indeed it already is) but we will adjust faster and more easily if we change land use regulations. https://t.co/PsZ4k2c8yD — PolitiTweet.org

By the same token, the rapid surge in remote work is also a major player in the increase in homelessness — some white-collar worker's new home office is someone else sleeping in a tent. https://t.co/28FxNscr0A — PolitiTweet.org

How does remote work lead to "missing workers?" Not directly. But remote work leads to a rise in housing demand, which leads to a financial windfall for incumbent homeowners, which leads to earlier retirements for older homeowners. https://t.co/Atn5O87i6B — PolitiTweet.org

People continue to miss a lot of second-order consequences of the pandemic rapidly accelerating remote work — it's the biggest explanation for "missing workers" for example. https://t.co/Atn5O86Kh3 — PolitiTweet.org

Back on climate, oftentimes the same people with exaggerated doomer views about the status quo also underestimate the technical barriers to net zero — creating a discourse that’s too panicky but also not doing enough to promise carbon-free energy. https://t.co/CuJYqbyKRM https://t.co/Z8mhdthq79 — PolitiTweet.org
