This month, we're continuing the recent & classic ACX post meetup model. Please see the linked LW post for details / links, but quick summary: Recent post: the theme is crime & disorder, since that (and the ensuing meta-discussion) have been the subject of many of Scott's recent posts. If the discussion feels too much like a rehash of the Vibecession convo from last time, we can move on to...
