  • I don’t really agree at all.

    The overwhelming majority of people are going to be calling from a cell phone with data access now. It’s time to consider including data access to emergency services w/ emergency roaming functionally just like we do with calls and sms. A system can and should be built out to provide emergency gps, video + information services like we described and live video calls. We have the technology we just have to cut through bureaucracy.

    Providing advanced smartphone functionality in emergencies could be hugely beneficial.











  • I’m not convinced the alcohol is the determining factor in shitheads being shitheads. Domestic abusers wouldn’t disappear if alcohol did. Drunk driving, maybe, but it would be replaced with other substances or forms of negligence.

    Drinking responsibly does have short term social and mental benefits when used responsibly, and less severe long-term health issues.

    I’m not advocating for alcohol consumption by any means, but it seems obvious to me why it’s viewed more positively than smoking. It helps people enjoy life. Smoking doesn’t, really.
