5月19日，@NetAskari 披露了一个中国的秘密监控平台，系统名为“境外人员动态管控平台”。 调查者表示，他们获取到了该平台的演示系统，并确认其中部分数据来自真实世界，包括护照信息、手机号、签证信息、出行记录等。 系统不仅能记录外国人的住宿、工作、学习情况，还可结合人脸识别摄像头，对个人在城市中的行动轨迹进行实时追踪。乘坐火车时的车厢、座位等数据，也会被纳入长期分析。 平台会为每名人员建立“快速画像”，并标注所谓“风险因素”。系统还整合了医疗记录、住址、工作信息、加油记录、日常活动规律，甚至“社交关系”。 其中一项功能为“关系图谱分析”，可根据监控画面中共同出现的频率，自动分析人与人之间的联系。 此外，系统还设有“重点人员”“在逃人员”“外国记者”“外国学生”等数据库。当相关人员进入某地时，平台会向当地行政与安保部门发出提醒。 调查者指出，该系统的数据来源不仅包括警方监控网络，还接入了滑雪场缆车等商业系统的摄像头数据。一名外国记者在滑雪时被系统即时识别并标记。 曝光者称，目前尚无法确认该系统哪些功能已真正投入现实使用，但从界面与数据来看，其测试时间约为2023年前后，部分底层数据可追溯至2021年。 据称，该曾在河北张家口地区测试运行。 目前该系统似乎已被下线。

@0chraceus My hypothetical Ai speculations are only designed with the most advanced technology, including hurricane resistant glass.

@neilblock @maxdubler @cafedujord The zoo parking already existed, the spaces were just restriped; the project led to a net decrease of ~90 parking spots, and was supported by the coastal commission as "exciting opportunity to reimagine a prominent shoreline area away from vehicular use to non-vehicular..."
English
@0chraceus @maxdubler @cafedujord This report is pretty clear that they didn't object re: parking because the city replaced 90 free spaces removed along the route with 100 free spaces at the zoo, and retains free parking lots on the seaward side north of Lincoln. Either way seems inconsistent with the SM report🤷♂️
English
The California Coastal Commission thinks that "coastal access" means parking first and foremost. While this is understandable—many wealthy east coast enclaves effectively privatize their beaches by denying parking to non-residents!—it reflects an outdated cars-first mentality.
Rafa@Rafamonsta
It’s crazy that the Coastal Commission is so vehemently opposed to the idea that the city of Santa Monica should be allowed to decide on its own if it can remove parking in favor of bike lanes near the coast. Ridiculous.
English
@neilblock @maxdubler @cafedujord I believe that report was for the temporary closure. The later report for its permanent closure makes their position clear (e.g. to "help to incentivize non-vehicular forms of travel"), contrary to Mr Dubler's characterization of the agency's priorities.

@0chraceus @maxdubler @cafedujord I haven’t read the SM report but this report makes it pretty clear that SF shut down the Great Highway during covid without getting CCC permission, and (surprise surprise) it didn’t cause any substantial public access impacts, so they let it stand

@newanimeavi @zacharywefel ChatGPT says data centers use a total of ~5% of electricity in the US, and this could grow to ~10% by 2030. That does not seem that gargantuan to me.
English
It's wild that we are having an environmental panic about data centers — a carbon-free industrial facility that during ordinary operation consumes no natural resources besides electricity and water and emits no waste products besides heat.
English
@maxdubler @cafedujord Cool, me too. Given that highly salient example of the coastal commission advocating for the removal of parking spaces and car access, your initial tweet seems… misleading at best?
English
@0chraceus @cafedujord I go out there pretty regularly and people do not appear to be having trouble enjoying the beach or the park.

@mattyglesias The only reason increased offshore oil is on the table is because of trumps weird oil and coal fixation. It’s not necessary or good policy …

@big_pedestrian when did yimbys get such a hardon for destroying rare subtidal habitats and vilifying any and all environmental protections, instead of just, you know, focusing on infill development?
English
US environmental review (NEPA, CEQA) in coastal metros ONLY look at point impacts of projects. The counterfactual is that the people, jobs and homes a project would have provided cease to exist. But they don’t. They move to Texas, Georgia and Turlock where their emissions double.

Current environmental best practice is to make sure this never happens so that the people who would live here can instead pave over a forest in North Carolina where they will drive an hour to work every day and crank the AC in their McMansions

@PGHNewLiberals @JeremiahDJohns @CNLiberalism yup. it one-shot fixes the transportation debates, the data center debates, veganism vs meat debates. etc etc.

This thread is just the entire @CNLiberalism policy program.
Fix Zoning. Tax Land. Reform permitting. Tax Carbon. Kill the Jones Act. More immigrants. Approve more drugs. Licensing reform. Claude is neoliberal
There's even a nod to compensating kidney donors! Yes! Hell Yes!
Arram@arram
Asked Claude: 'There's a meme called the "fix everything easily switch". What policies do you think are the best candidates for being a real fix everything switch in the US? Give me your top ten, your confidence, your reasoning, and why a given policy has not been implemented.'

This is what older, Californian liberals want. Their ethos has always been build clean energy as far away from where I live as possible.
They consider an *ideal* outcome.
Ramez Naam@ramez
Everyone who cares about climate should understand this. Texas, with no pro-climate policies, has blown passed California in clean energy. In large part because Texas has less red tape and makes it easier to build.

@SukritGanesh Many were coastal live oaks and many not even in their property, and they ignored several warnings. Silly thing to defend
English
Why is Oakland doing this? Oak trees aren’t exactly an endangered species, and the number of oak trees in the city is negligible compared to the number of trees in the forests directly adjacent to the city. All this does is make life difficult for property owners.
KRON4 News@kron4news
The owners of a private residential property in Oakland were slapped with a fine of nearly $1 million for chopping down 38 trees. Many were oak trees. “We are named ‘Oakland’ for a reason,” City Councilmember Ramachandran said. Full story: kron4.com/news/bay-area/…
