A new data center proposal was discussed in Taylor, TX ( a pretty conservative place ) last night. Its a model Greg Abbott datacenter in that its 'bringing its own power'. Unfortunately, the room was still overflowing with people protesting it. Turns out, the only thing people want to live next to less than a datacenter, is a datacenter that is also a natural gas power plant 😂 The pro-data center side really needs to go back to the drawing board on this. Something like Vivek is proposing where you pay neighbors is probably the way.

Caleb Hammer on Rogan talking about how he wants a good subway system in Austin, but the homeless and criminal justice problems make it a non-starter Many public transit advocates are coming to the same conclusion, We have to enforce the camping ban and replace our DA!

Instead of prioritizing flood prevention projects using a 'worse problem first' and technical risk framework Austin is going to start using equity data to decide which projects to do because 'not everyone experiences flooding the same' Imagine the lawsuit when houses flood because the city delays a project due to the race of the homeowners

Waymo called Austin 911 almost 100 times for people passed out in their vehicles. Councilman Siegel is asking about prosecuting Waymo for False 911 reports for this but is it False? If someone died in the back of a waymo and they saw and didnt call 911, it would be bad!
