It’s so much worse as you scale up projects too. When neighbouring cities or regions need to work together it often only takes one douche canoe to torpedo the whole thing. Especially infrastructure projects and the like

You asked why, i told you. Doesn’t mean it make sense but it is the reason. Notoriety
This is true and is an example of an inconvenient truth.
But it’s also important to note that Mamdani didnt cancel the project because it was the predecessor. That’s often all too common in political leadership positions and is why it can be so bloody impossible to get long term benefits/plans to be executed.
Spite, ego, politicking all makes for terrible leadership but it’s often what seems to be celebrated. Good on Mamdani for seeing something worth having and not needing to be the author of it just for optics
Because there are certain recipes that are notorious for failing if you don’t do so the extra steps. That’s it a few bad apples to spoil the bunch

News@lemmy.world•Zuckerberg faces questions over why superyacht reportedly declined to help stranded boat
1·7 days agoMaybe we can tell some orcas to go play with that yacht…
From the article, since many people in another post seem to be defending the yacht just because Zuckerberg wasn’t on board at the time
“Our boat rescued a stranded vessel last night and apparently we did that after the Coast Guard radioed Mark Zuckerberg’s yacht – which was closer – and they repeatedly refused to respond. (There was near unanimous booing when the captain announced this).”
Home have different material requirements and construction requirements that means they are(should be if built correctly…) safer and more complex. Also houses are MUCH bigger than they used to be.
That’s not to say there isn’t a problem but it’s not just inflation that has made housing costs more expensive

1·9 days agoI used win because that’s what was used in the comment I replied to.
I was just pointing out that the Iran conflict was not intended to be long engagement either.
If Trump thinks invading Greenland is going to be a quick engagement that’s also as much of a miscalculation as thinking Iran would be quick.
Further more I don’t disagree that good points were made. If the US declares ownership of Greenland that will be the next chapter world warfare.
Strap in indeed. And I for one will go fight it

The Bubble was waiting for the money to run out which is what built the bubble. The money is running out and the subscriptions are ready for purchase.
Lol care to compare it to Princess Bride?
