re: sf housing crisis, could we charter massive cruise ships to permanently circle the area, picking up / dropping off in the city 5 or 10 times a day? maybe 10 ships, 50,000 rooms?

It is crazy how many times I've heard versions of this idea. You could keep them floating quite a ways out semi-permanently if you had sufficient demand to keep a few taxi-boats in business

that didn’t even occur to me - that’s brilliant. dramatically reduces energy costs and pretty much kills the environmental argument against.

San Francisco has already done this (but it’s seismically dangerous and environmental rules don’t really allow it any longer)

I think this might work. Im reminded of a story on HN of two guys who built the MVP of their product on cruise ships. The all in cost per day was cheaper than their apartments in SF.

Not a bad way to get a team working intensively. Especially if you can figure out the internet issues (usually prohibitively expensive on cruise ships)
