Yeah in order to believe that I would have to see any evidence at all that any developer or tech company has ever engaged in good faith

First, and most importantly, anti-data center folks refuse to believe data center developers and tech companies engage in good faith. They have staked out a purely reactionary position. Negotiation is useless. Just reject everything by default. They're playing this as Always Defect.

I find it frustrating, personally, when anti-data center organizers say that the job creation is a myth. Because I think that 500 six-figure jobs, for folks who go through apprenticeships but maybe don’t need college degrees, that last two to six years — that’s enough time to build a family, that’s enough time to buy a home. I think it’s supermeaningful. And when I talk to technicians, when I talk to workers, clearly it was extremely meaningful work. One of the things that was the most surprising to me, when I talked to data center activists, was that they responded to so many of the pro arguments with: I don’t believe them. So this company says that they are going to treat the water with chemicals in it so that it doesn’t flow into the lakes. People would say: I don’t believe them. I don’t think they can do it.

Convinced Kaoly Her is going ahead with this encampment sweep this morning despite almost everyone in the know telling her to delay because she thinks she’d otherwise appear politically weak. It’s awful of the mayor to put vulnerable people at greater risk just to try and save her political career.

Me: Could you put the notes from this meeting into an email for the team? The Shape Recognizer: The logo for Outlook is almost like a square. Me: No offense but I thought you would be better at recognizing shapes.
