> Construction projects always take far longer and cost far more than expected because of what's happening in the field, not because of what's happening in the office, so software simply isn't a bottleneck in this industry.
Hmm. The government takes place in an office, doesn’t it?
Do you think a law could make construction faster and cheaper? A regulation? Change in policy? Non enforcement of existing policies? So no votes required? I don’t know, some of that could be extremely impactful and it could happen extremely quickly. Non enforcement of all sorts of regulations can happen in a stroke of a pen. Then, think of the impact of immigration policy on construction labor. Think of all the levels of government that could impact this, local state federal. With no votes whatsoever, no campaigning, none of that slowness.
I don’t know. You worked in this for 5 years. How could your takeaway be that construction doesn’t happen behind a laptop? Like I get the spirit of what you’re saying, poopooing AR whatevers, but I am just a layperson, and it’s just common sense that if the policy were “there’s no minimum wage” or “there’s no limit on immigration,” both of which can and do occur without legislation due to nonenforcement, dude, construction would get a lot cheaper and faster. And maybe that’s not software in your limited sense, but gig economy companies essentially achieved part of those specific policies I’m describing for all sorts of things. So c’mon, of course what happens in the office in every sense has the biggest impact on construction.
As they say, most regulation are written in blood, they are there for a reason, have you not learned anything from the titanic submarine disaster? Or the earthquake in Turkey? Same for worker protection, also there for a reason, workers fought hard to get those protections, do you really want to go back to the 19th century as a worker? Today it’s the protection of the Mexican workers that’s taken away, tomorrow it’s yours…
