I rarely read (let alone recommend) planning or community development books, but "Reclaiming Your Community: You Don't Have to Move out of Your Neighborhood to Live in a Better One" by @majoracarter spoke to me on so many levels. A must read for all city-builders. /5

Despite all the hype, I do think people aren't taking the recent chat AI release seriously enough, many of its obvious shortcomings are the result of filters or able to be corrected with minor or even zero-effort feedback. I don't think we've begun to see the applications yet.
Miss 5 Monopoly Stories, part 2: She grabbed a $5 monopoly note and wrote $20,000,000,000,000 on the back of it and handed it to me. I'd like to take a moment to apologise to the Reserve Bank for their additional inflation challenge.
