(a special thank you to Rafi Arefin and Rozy Fredericks for the invitation and such useful comments!)

I'm now trying to think about major revisions to the piece for the book, as I try to think about this as a case of a broader tension between urban space, speed, and capital. I'm thus very, very open to comments and critiques!

These circulations come to resemble something like "just in time delivery" - but for wastewater; engineers' goal is to minimize the time water sits, and rather keep it in motion. The result are homes and streets turned into improvised rivers. Residents often have little idea where water came from.

In the piece, I trace the tension between urbanization and drainage, as urban developments (esp. logistics infrastructures) infringe upon the drainage system the lacustrine city depends on to survive. Engineers square the circle of accumulation through increasingly elaborate circulations of waste.

btw esto parece una opción open source interestante, especialmente si ya ocupas obsidian para tus apuntes (es un programa maravillosa!) - www.obsidianstats.com/plugins/quadro

Mas bien una persona de atención al cliente me mandó una versión anterior por Dropbox (creo que es 15.3, la más actualizada ahora es 15.5). No pagué más. Pero si, fue muy frustrante graduarme del PhD y luego perder mi acceso gratis (o por lo menos barato) a Nvivo.

Bueno- ya me mandaron una versión anterior de Nvivo y parece que con esa versión mis codes están en orden… but this whole incident does not inspire confidence jaja

Gracias! Estoy experimentando con MaxQDA y me parece más intuitivo… a ver 🤷‍♂️

Es algo muy frustrante: tengo todos mis notas de campo en PDF, y ahora mis codes no corresponden a los párrafos correctos - están todos revueltos. 🤦‍♂️

This is a dumb question but are these big data centers they are building left and right then mainly for the ongoing training of models, not to meet customer requests (the api calls id i understand the term) themselves?
