1000% "Current solutions to addressing the delivery gap in cities over index either on neocities and building new states from scratch (led by great man theories and technocracy) or completely overhauling existing government (and the slow but needed structures that nonetheless still ensure our basic safety and needs). A third way is possible, however. Instead we can retrofit existing systems with new endoskeletal frameworks; adaptive, decentralized protocols that enable cities and communities to evolve without abandoning their shared foundations."
