That's Buddhism, not socialism.
But hey, good news! This is America, which means you're free to whichever religious ideology you want, with no chance of persecution whatsoever.

It is the beating heart of Windows itself, the nuclear reactor at the heart of the facility. And much like with a nuclear reactor, you don't screw around in the core unless you have a damn good reason.
Doing so at random is a good way to make both go kaboom.

LUA Buglight is also good for documenting why a program needs admin when it shouldn't.

After that, you just write an admin shim with the app compatibility toolkit and just add write perms to the necessary folders.
...Unless it's system32. Then your software request can die in a fire, and I'm forwarding the info to your boss (and mine) before you can complain to them.

I agree...
but not in the way the Twitter OP expects.

For the majority of intersections, if you don't press the button (or more often, don't press it in time), you don't get the walk light. Doesn't matter if the parallel car traffic has a green and all cross traffic is blocked, if you didn't press it beforehand, it stays on the red hand and skips your turn.

I say the buttons should not be there to "beg" for crossing permission. They should be used to say, "Hey I'm in a wheelchair or carrying a heavy can you give me 15 extra seconds?" And it should not need to be pressed beforehand.

I sent in a service request to the city, but they said it was the state's responsibility and forwarded it.

Not quite. Stores typically do flex scheduling instead of a steady 9-5, and will only allocate enough employees to meet basic demand, and are cycled between stations.
There's never enough hands for someone to be just a cart grabber. Once you're done with that task, it's back inside because that weird robot thingy saw a sticker and is calling for a cleanup.
