@mehul @ICannot_Enough @mikepat711 @maticrobots Thoughtful response, thanks. Dust bunny’s abound under the furniture in this house,

Maybe version 2 is low slung, but w movable sensors? And they move to get under obstacles, but otherwise keep their watchful vantage pt? Or are there other reasons for the form factor?

@SneakyVertical @avidseries @rnparks @melvin13131313 Came to say this - biological magnification, that call it.

@mickeyxfriedman @KeaganCW EVERYTHING is about scale.

@paulg @patrickc I dunno, I kinda like Sea Ranch (designed by UC Berkeley faculty).

[tectonically @tectonically]

@patrickc To be (un)fair you picked the Wurst framing - the back courtyard, in the shade and without the nine story tower and the brise soleils. I think the modernist/brutalist hate is missing the exploration of volume and form that’s a bit rote in all things classical.

@BioLayne @BioLayne What? You haven’t heard of Manbearpig?

[tectonically @tectonically]

@ICannot_Enough @mikepat711 @maticrobots I don’t get it, it can’t clean under the couch (and all the other legged low clearance furniture which is a typology unto itself). The low slung discs exist for a reason - one might even say their height is “first principles”…

@BecomingCritter Tell me you have anosmia without telling me you have anosmia.

@neontaster @sunnyright Agreed. It’s the positive public response and hero-worship of a killer that should.

@the_transit_guy Wait, I think nature can be healing, but are we sure nature is healing? Put another way, is nature healing or is nature healing?

@TheKevinDalton @DisgracedProp No, he said Zyn diagram:

@jrichlive Did he just say Zyn diagram? I want to believe it was Freudian, but I don’t.

@JimmyRis @majamediaco I remember loving A Pattern Language when I found it. And then being distressed to learn the faculty at Cal, while I was there, were downright contemptuous of Alexander.

@chamath @wholemars @chamath Coach? It only has two seats, but I guess you could ride in the trunk.

@avidseries @avidseries Doesn’t explain everything, but there’s correlation and it tracks for inactivity levels in other hot humid parts of the world (Asia, etc). https://t.co/etRwEA93yN

@ireadaxu @ErikBootsma I’m almost certain you’re not in the minority if your set includes architects.
