They aren't wrong

"For about 2,000 years, everything human beings built was beautiful, or at least unobjectionable." - you lost me there buddy.

and then I read to the end anyway and got in a lather so here are more awful quotes:

"architects should not want to create things that are “iconic in scale” or to “puncture the skyline.”" - what are the authors opinions on the Eiffel tower I wonder.

"Wright’s Fallingwater house, on the other hand, was designed to cohere with its location" - yeah and its roof leaks something terrible

article 'the problem with modernism (all architecture c. 1900-2024) is that if you hate it those pesky modernists will just tell you why you're wrong and tell you why youre supposed to like it

the article title:

Shrinkflation

So, I found out a fun fact this last weekend!

Every state has a Department of Weights and Measures. One of their jobs is to make sure that companies are actually selling you the quantities they claim they're selling. For example, this is the department which tests gas pumps and makes sure they're really pumping out a gallon of gas when they charge you for a gallon of gas.

So....

If you happen to, just as an example, notice that your 1lb (16 ounce) box of San Giorgio spaghetti actually only has 10oz of noodles, and you weigh your other boxes of spaghetti to discover they run from 10 to 14 ounces but never the full pound they're supposed to have, and that's why you never seem to have enough pasta for leftovers the next day, then you can report that to the Department of Weights and Measures.

They will want to know where you bought the item, and then will investigate whether the store or the manufacturer is routinely shorting customers. If they do, they will issue a fine to the offending party, you will be eligible for a refund, and under some circumstances lawsuits may follow.

Now, I don't know the outcome of the complaint I just initiated, but they did not want to know specific receipts or times of purchase. Which is good for me as I didn't keep any of those things, at the time I just said "Wow, fuck San Giorgio" and switched brands. But this is still enough to get an inspector out.
