The solution I’m most interested in is eliminating the friction to seed/early stage funding coming directly from interested user communities and even better would be to also draw as much of the labor pool as possible from the same group.
I think this eliminates most of the misalignments in stakeholder interest.
We already have equity crowdfunding in the states. We need more innovation in crowdfunding platforms.
An independent analysis of 15,000 EV batteries finds that most don't need to be replaced until they're well over a decade old.
That’s easy. Rinse, repeat.
Most informed comment ITT. Thank you for sharing it.
Not sure who they surveyed. Sure as hell didn’t ask me.
Not to mention the $7500 tax credit and if you’re in CA there’s also a tax rebate (they send you a check).
Sorry for the delayed reply. Been AFK.
What, to you, is the actual difference between a community working together and organizing their resources for the common benefit, and a government?
The ability to collaborate solely with values-aligned community rather than being forced to reach consensus across all people in a geographic region regardless of how antagonistic or philosophically misaligned we are.
The city/state level is much more likely to achieve things like this and that’s great but it’s not always the case. Regulatory capture and complex relationships with industry players make the government an imperfect vehicle for doing what’s best for communities. Sometimes a downright impediment to it.
My point is that there’s nothing inherently stopping us from doing it for ourselves in any situation where the state is not optimally stewarding the public trust on our behalf, and the sooner we figure that out the sooner we start solving up-til-now rather intractable problems.
Decidedly mixed and increasingly right-leaning but I’m pleasantly surprised at my own experience having voice chats with diverse people who agree on one thing but disagree on just about everything else.
