When you build with wood windows you know what you get. You can touch and use your own senses to discover leaks or rots or molds or degraded performance. Depending on build quality, location, climate, and maintenance, a wooden window can easily last a century or more and can be replace part by part rather than scrapping the whole thing. A modern window while initially able to provide a far higher insulation efficiency even that soon starts dipping due to mechanical wear, perimeter seal failures, the Low-E coating wearing off, gas fill failure etc. It is not easily maintained so usually it is landfilled and a new window is bought at high cost, and repeat. Not to mention use of non-renewable resources, opportunity cost (support local craftsmen who reinvest in your community!), waste and pollution etc. A traditional window frame can be composted and the materials used for maintenance literally grows on trees.

2026-10-03T05:05:25Z

A lovely detail that common in Japanese homes and buildings 1925-1950 were the kataita-garasu, or patterned glass. It was a relatively cheap and simple way of elegantly solving the problem of how to let in light but keep out prying eyes in the crowded Japanese homes and cities of the era. Popular in private homes but today most surviving example can be seen in historic or surviving architecture of the era, abandoned rural properties etc. The effect of light and shadows, the movement of the sun and the people around it, the swaying greenery seen through it, it makes everything sublime and slightly magical. Truly "Less is more".

2026-10-03T05:05:21Z

The 2008 Sichuan earthquake in Ma'anqiao, destroyed 263 out of 272 houses. Due to extreme poverty and remoteness rebuilding with concrete block or RC was impossible. Instead the village returned to the traditional rammed earth construction methods of the region relying on local materials and labor. The only outside help came in the form of engineers specifically studying how to make rammed earth construction more seismically robust.

Reading the science news (anthropology to be exact) again: "The lack of flood adaptation in local huts like stilt building etc. show that the flooding is indeed a recent phenomena linked to climate change." No it does absolutely not at all show that. The far likelier explanation is that the regional population having increased in multiples of hundreds have pushed marginal groups onto flood prone land for which they have absolutely no traditional building techniques and also no interest in learning from neighboring communities that have centuries of experience of living with seasonal flooding.

In 2019 I visited the "Den Grønne Genbrugshal" in Copenhagens Christiania autonomous enclave. The building itself is from 1847 (first photo, which I found online, other photos are mine), and used to be a riding school attached to the barracks of an army garrison. Since 1978 it houses recycled and second hand building materials (anything from work clothes to tools to lime to wood and insulation), which are available to the public from 2011. You could probably walk in here with a handcart and after a few visits build your own home.

Absolutely! The USA too! Regrettably, land use policies outlaw building these types of places while fiscal and transportation policies favor dehumanizing, automobile-scaled settlement patterns which, in addition to being incredibly costly, isolate, alienate and lead to a fear-thy-neighbor syndrome. As Pogo said, “We have met the enemy and he is us.”

2026-02-03T10:35:45Z

Chronic lower back pain cost the US $100 billion annually directly and two or three times that if you include indirect costs like loss of labour. However simple walking for about 1.5-2 hours daily reduced the risk of developing it by 23%. The cost reduction for society encouraging us to walk more and drive less are potentially huge (not even starting to count all the other health positives of walking). Why not start with encouraging the building of walkable mixed high density neighborhoods and towns that was the human norm for thousands of years? And make them walkable. We know from studies on campuses and theme parks that even Americans are happy to spend far more than 2 hours on their feet if they can be distracted by alluring or interesting surroundings.

A 1922 brick building with a glazed terracotta cladding. All of it factory made. Louis Sullivan might be gone but we can easily copy and mass produce his designs. Terracotta is cheap and easily manufactured by small local factories and artisans. We used to have catalogs where you could order the exact facade you wanted and hire a local worker to put it up on your steel frame, brick front, timber frame, rammed earth, cob, stone, adobe or straw bale building. We can do this again.

The interesting take on this is that the City of London is preparing for its imminent occupation by a race of Lovecraftian aliens, but in reality it is just the usual virtue signaling by clueless bureaucrats kissing up to indoctrinated Modernist designers who really really dislike you and think you should suffer a great deal. Nothing new in other words.

Happiness is a choice, I tell myself, and that usually works. But when something disturbs my peace, nothing brings it back as well and as quickly as walking. Slightly annoyed? Around 1 block. Seriously irked? Around 2 blocks. Angry? Around 3-4 blocks. Anger is rare for me now.

2026-01-06T10:01:07Z

On the conservatism of Herbert Butterfield and the secular vision of original sin: “When we abandon the notion of original sin, we come to think that evil is concentrated entirely among our enemies, and that none of it lies in ourselves. By projecting all evil onto our opponents, we authorize ourselves to "treat the political enemy as subhuman, irredeemable." Political struggle then takes on existential stakes, becoming a war between the righteous and the wicked—with ourselves, of course, on the side of the righteous.... In political life, certain ideas motivate people to crush their enemies and to pursue final solutions. One of them is self-righteousness; another is utopianism.” https://www.nationalaffairs.com/publications/detail/herbert-butterfield-and-original-sin

The money in solar isn't in electricity, it is in installation. Once that is done the solar power farms are more or less abandoned and when it comes time for major maintenance and/or removal, the owners are long gone, having disappeared in a maze of sub-contractors and international schemes. Left with the mountains of toxic waste, ruined land, irreversible pollution, are the people.

They think we can have order without hierarchy. They believe we can have progress without vision. They believe in education without learning, in health care with neither health nor care. They believe we can have safety with vigilance and law without justice. They ask for freedom without accepting obligations. Yet they will receive the opposite of everything they ask for. Theirs are the ruins, and all we can do is to remain standing.
