humans starting keeping books full of numbers and invented rules to move the numbers around long before we had computability theory, and invented laws to enshrine the sanctity of those numbers and punish anyone who manipulates the numbers against the rules, and constructed sociolegal algorithms to drive up the numbers, and in our slavish devotion to this machine we've built around ourselves, our final desperate pleading hope is that it will create an "artificial intelligence" for us that will somehow in its statistical hallucinations provide answers that help us escape before the machine bleeds to death

BUFFALO, N.Y. — An appellate court has ruled in favor of the City of Buffalo in an eminent domain case.
Mayor Byron Brown's administration said it began the process on 110 and 118 South Park Avenue to protect the property from being torn down.
Now the city is awaiting a decision from an Erie County judge on whether the current owner has the right to demolish the buildings.
"The Brown Administration commenced an eminent domain proceeding to acquire 110-118 South Park to protect the property from further blight, deterioration and to enable redevelopment," the city said.
