Abstract
It is often said that we are what we consume. We are a consuming public, and a ravenously consuming one at that. We are, in other words, constituted by an ethic of consumption that is the hallmark of the world we live in (see Bauman, 2007; Hannigan, 1998; Zukin, 2004). This consuming ethic however, is not without criticism and has come under scrutiny from a variety of quarters. There is one in particular, which is not only a criticism of or about consumption, but also a reflection, even by-product, of it. This is the problem of visible poverty such as homelessness that pervades many large cities. In particular, many of the manifestations of visible poverty, what is often referred to as ‘public disorder’ – for example, panhandling, squeegeeing or loitering – are said to be of dire concern to consumption and the consumptive ethic.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
