5,000 units of apartments is not mixed use so unless there is more to the story you're leaving out, this is not mixed use.

I used to live in a food desert. Glad to know I imagined it and lived in fantasyland.

I won't say I never see it because I do but the reason you rarely see it is Bernie Sanders. The DNC played dirty when it came to Sanders in 2016 and it tainted Clinton's entire campaign and it really continues to taint the DNC to

Just a reminder that the YC funds many of the companies pushing these laws and building the surveillance state.

Trump kidnaps a sitting president of a foreign nation after months of conducting strikes in the Caribbean. This is not a war but calling him "averagely warmongering" is just wrong.

I guess one of the Koreas should watch out since Trump might want to end that "forever war" as well. Flip a coin to decide which one.

You assumed they are against density and not just mourning a nostalgic place for them?

I remember before the election I read a few people on HN say Trump is the most anti-war president they have ever seen and that all the talk about him letting Israel flatten Palestine was fearmongering. Wonder how they feel now.

Is GPT 5.5 the best in the field? I think Opus is still better despite Anthropic's recent stumbling.

I don't know many if any YIMBYs who are opposed to density. I know people who are opposed to density being seen as only apartments and condos.

I don't mind VC funding as long as they aren't YC funded.

Portlanders do not think this. Survey people in Portland and you'll find they want trains as well. NIMBYs don't and NIMBYs make up the majority of people who actually have the time and wealth to go to city meetings.

The idea that if I don't do it, then someone else will doesn't excuse you from making unethical decisions.

I just wish the US would build trains. All I want.

I know. I'm noting that Google could fight this. They just won't.

It makes sense when you realize the goal is not the consumer but large gov and enterprise contracts.

You don't think Google having control over the most used email, most used browser, most used search engine, most used video website, and most used phone OS gives them immense power?

They likely will but even for them it will be a long fight. State AGs are suing to stop this acquisition in droves. Even if States lose, which I expect they will, I don't anticipate they will get CNN before midterms like they want.

Google holds immense power in their position. Trump can make their life very difficult but Google can make life for Trump very difficult as well. They have no need to kneel, they are choosing to.

I'd recommend checking out Serious Eats for Kenji's "Vegan Experience" recipes. He has some tofu recipes for omnivores that I really endorse. His tofu banh mi is divine.

You don't need to give up anything just reduce. I don't drink alcohol at home but I'll have a few drinks socially. If having a burger socially is what you want to do then do it.

> What is the answer to feed everyone during these budget constrained times? It can’t be tofu, can it? There are just too many of us. You are very wrong here by orders of magnitudes. The US produces about 5 billion bushes of soybeans. 1
