Japan. For an island with limited space they treat their real estate market very differently. The land itself has value, but structures depreciate to zero. https://housekey.jp/why-japanese-real-estate-is-different/

The problem is that CCS is objectively bad and way worse than NACS. I suggest watching Sandy Munro's analysis on it.

The problem is that Texas has been gerrymandered to the point that Democrats in the cities don't have an "an equal vote", and are being dictated to by what the see as rural rubes.

Unfortunately the other available lever is congressional action in the form of tax increases and wildly increased public housing funding. Both of which are never going to happen.

It 100% has to do with retention of key talent and knowledge transfer. It seems the model for most western studios is to make one or two big successful games, then layoff all the staff and/or be acquired by EA/Activision/Micr

It's not the dog. It's the commute and not wanting to be in the office/micromanaged. The dog is just the excuse. I've been WFH since 2017 and will never go back, it's not worth it (at least for me).

Yeah, after new rule rollout Tesla in one of the few manufactures still eligible for the EV subsidy. Unfortunately they made the rules too stringent focused on US manufacturing. Which is great in theory, but in todays world of global supply

Scott Adams is jerk who no one wants to work with. I don't care if he's a plumber, a cartoonist, or a garbage man. Finding a job, and people who want to work with him is his problem.

Stop, just stop. That Rasmussen poll is a loaded question framed to make black people appear unreasonable and work up a racist right wing base. It worked Scott Adams up so much he went on a racist tirade and got himself fired. "It&#x27

Foxconn is designing an EV platform specifically for this. https://www.foxconn.com/en-us/products-and-services/event-hi... We'll see if it works out. Seeing as how they're Apple's biggest partner I&

I own a Tesla. I'll never buy another as long as Elon is involved. Just reserved a Rivian and won't look back.

He also donated a ton to Republicans. He was trying to buy crypto regulation. Those people aren't his friends. If anything they see him as an embarrassment/liability now.

Yep. I fell in the trap of using repeat passwords because I was lazy. One of them leaked and someone overseas started using my personal Plex server. I setup LassPass the next day and changed everything to unique strong passwords. LastPass i

So what is Twitter's business plan? How is Elon planning to recoupe his investment here? Advertisers aren't going to like turning the platform into a free-for-all hellscape (which is what's going to happen). There's alre

He was in mid 30s, young for COVID - but diabetic. There have been actual studies done for the vaccine to show efficacy in preventing death for someone in his risk group. So not the same logic, but accrual proven causation. There's a v

Thanks. I wouldn't wish what he went through on my worst enemy. He was in the hospital for three months and spend half of that time on a ventilator. After a month COVID isn't contagious anymore and we were allowed us to visit him

I watched one of my best friends choke on his own lungs and die of COVID last year. He'd be alive if he had gotten the vaccine.

At the end of the day the Hunter Biden laptop story just wasn't that compelling. Everyone knew Hunter Biden had a history and struggled with drugs. It wasn't a secret. Ultimately this story wasn't buried by Facebook or Twitte

This. Apple massively subsidizes these chips on the research, development, and construction end. Without Apple TSMC wouldn't exist.

Maybe, but I think some of it is just luck. Supply chain issues are starting to soften, finally. It all feels to me like we're still dealing with COVID bullwhip issues/echoes. The Fed has just been trying to manage the wave.

Not really. Normal people don't care if we're in a recession or not. They care if they're employed, and maybe to a lesser extent if their purchasing power is decreasing. If I'm working and getting a big raise things are

It's still work and needs done. How do you expect someone to get "25 years of experience" without giving them work to do?

This guy has a degree and worked in commercial real-estate. He's intelligent and capable of working in tech. Bootcamps are retraining programs, not degree programs. They're not going to turn dummies into software engineers.

I'm not so sure about that. I suspect the mismatch in labor participation rates pre vs. post COVID is mostly accounted for in early/normal retirements. All those boomers that they were warning were going to eventually retire just

There really isn't much of a choice, and even then it's not a long term solution. From the article: "Morland talks of the trilemma facing ageing nations, whereby you can have two of the three: ethnic continuity, a thriving ec

This article actually addresses this, and is one component of the larger problem: "Older people tend to vote for their own self-interests, and in the case of Britain, end up controlling the government in power; voters with pensions and
