  • I was assuming the repair would be done by a different firm, but that’s fair. It probably ends the cost-plus contract that the construction firm had, at a minimum.

    In seriousness the problem seems to be the contract doesn’t incentivize the correct behavior, but I would love to hear from someone with actual knowledge on the topic.

    Also, maybe there are too many opportunities to kill projects via zoning ordinances, and its inarguable that oil, auto, and other industries actively combat these projects.


  • I guess it’s covered by 5., but the real, actual reason we can’t have trains is the civil engineering firms can’t extract infinite money from a completed railway.

    Also, have you considered how any public works project that runs longer than a single term of the elected official who gets it approved, is letting the next guy get all the credit for it? That’s much worse than having functional mass transit.

    I baked them in the oven until they looked dry and then ran them through a food processor, but they were still too sticky to use the way I was expecting. It needs something else… maybe just added corn starch or an actual food dehydrator, but I didn’t figure it out before moving to a place with no garden. Also, it made the kitchen uninhabitable for normies while it was cooking.
