I do not care if you choose to live in a single family home or a unit in a multi family building. The issue that we have is that "single family zoning" where the maximum density allowed on a plot of land is a single house is a lan

What frustrates me about this whole argument over wealth taxes is that the arguments aren't grounded in facts. The reality is that we "pay" for inequality with reduced productivity. A great example of this is "single fam

before the pandemic, the city doubled in size every day to 1.6m folks, during working hours which would reduce the ratio by 1/2 The city also includes the airport, which alone employs a mix of 30k public and non public workers. Finally

disagree, sort of. The marketing was always shit, but the 2 big differences between LTE and 5G are latency and cell size. Cell size matters because there is a ceiling for how many devices an LTE cell can support in a certain range. Thats wh

Weird how the true evidence based comment is downvoted here. Regardless of your ideological priors the evidence we have shows deplatforming works to limit dis info spread. I have yet to hear an argument about why we should not deplatform ho

I don't really understand the hate for Zinn by some folks. He tells the truth, a truth not often told. Curious how so many self styled "contrarians" and "free thinkers" dislike his work without reading it. Anyway, i

thats not really true though, we have the numbers. In real terms, education, healthcare, and housing costs have grown at a much higher rate than inflation. It is more expensive to go to college, pay rent, and stay healthy now than it was 30

Raising the minimum wage in Seattle was shown to help the local economy. The economy doesn't grow if people don't have money to spend. The marginal dollar made going to a worker making 15 dollars and hour or less is better for eve

uhhh, we already have a shattered incentive structure and are not reproducing enough humans to support the next generation. US fertility is below replacement, as is pretty much every other developed or middle income country. Its likely that

Yea, the point is that all the evidence we have shows the connection between inflation and employment has weakened since the 70s and is pretty tenuous right now. It theoretically exists, but its unclear what is going on in a world of both i

It’s a generational thing. The younger generation has demonstrated they are way more likely to make personal sacrifices to save the planet (look at how they drive less, are vegan more often, and also they say this in surveys)

you'd be surprised how common this agreement is. A lot of the skyscrapers in manhattan are/were built with this arrangement, where one party owns the land, and leases it to the developer who owns builds and maintains the building.

A better way to set expectations would be to not equip the cops with riot and war gear face shields, batons, tear gas etc. Equip them with cargo shorts, dad style new balance shoes, and polo shirts. The police should be there to deescalate,

Did we slash R&D budgets once we standardized on the X_86 instruction set thus needing less compiler devs? Did we slash R&D budgets when we moved from on prem to cloud hosting? We have seen this happen many times before, we know the

I think your falacy is in the "less code" assumption when you say "The result is less code". I'd argue that empirially we've seen this to be false. The result isn't less code, at least in a global sense, i

I don’t think this framing is correct. No one wants things to be shut down until we have a vaccine, they want it to be shut down until we have a test and trace infrastructure in place. California’s reopen plan is gated by test and trace. It

This is the first in a series of cuts, and this cut didn’t effect anyone in tech, it’s mostly the front line service agents. We expect 800 eng layed off globally as has been reported in leaks.

I hope this inspires our generation. I hope we remember that the way things were recently aren’t they way have to be, or the way things naturally are. We need more pollution controls, clean power, and less driving. I also think we need to r
