This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I mean, that would be very cyberpunk. But we really don't need that much innovation. People have been building cities in places that are hot AF for millenia. Innovation is nice and all, but imo, the first step is recreating the things we already know work. That's why the article talked about all the ways the city riffed off of old Greek cities.
