@inthehands @donaldball I think even more important for sprawl is that the state (MN) is getting a lot closer to removing single family only zoning from the whole state. After moving here (from Durham coincidentally), I was so excited about the city's move to enable denser development, but was subsequently saddened when I bike through second and third tier suburbs to see the awful sprawl.

@inthehands my father taught a class where the students played a version of Monopoly where they were able to change the rules however they wanted, with the exception that no one could leave the game.

He was a political scientist, so the class was really about political economy, i.e. power.

@babe Her taking a bow

@emilygorcenski if so you should only get one per lifetime, otherwise the German osmers would rapidly map every patch of grass.

@emilygorcenski congratulations! I'm pretty hardcore osmer and spent a week in Germany and didn't find anything to map

@tchambers I can't follow it. Is that my instance not federating?

@Wolven

@cstross Who would have guessed these tech bros are total dumbasses
