It still won’t matter in real terms. Real housing prices will still continue to rise, until the fundamental housing shortage is solved in places like the Bay Area.

It’s not really a solution so much as it is a bandaid. Sure, you could raise interest rates and nominal house prices will go down. But it doesn’t solve the problem of limited housing supply in places like the Bay Area.

While the article itself isn’t heavily politicized, it would seem these types of discussions tend to bring out the worst in people.

That seems insane. They won’t let you use their API unless you test it? Don’t they have QA teams?

The early internet was extremely useful for getting credit card numbers and warez/serials/cracking tools. It would seem we have come full circle.

I wonder what role inhibitory control plays in the behaviors of ASD. Is it that an autistic person is unable to control their irregular behavior, or is it simply that their perception of the world is different than most neurotypical people?

There’s a difference between being willing to die for certain ideals (i.e. like the Gauls during Julius Caesar’s campaigns) and loving wanton bloodshed. That’s the point I was trying to make. If you can’t understand the difference between f

Since this was written in the 80s and it’s Esquire, it’s highly possible that the author is a military-industrial complex shill. Or an apologist at best. The only people who love war are corrupted individuals. They have no morals.

Similar to A Clockwork Orange. Ultimately nihilism/anarchism are juvenile philosophies that one (hopefully) outgrows when they are older.

In the context of production, why would you need to log anything other than X-Forwarded-For/X-Real-IP, timestamp, and the endpoint that was hit?

Yeah, it’s not like a weekly status update meeting. It’s a tad unprofessional IMO. As the CEO of a public company, you are accountable above all to your shareholders.

Talk with your doctor to ditch the antidepressants ASAP, and make sure your doctor tapers your dosage. I’d recommend mindful breathing exercises and meditative practices. CBT may also help you. It’s a marathon, not a sprint. Hope that helps

Speaking from personal experience, in order to improve one’s life, you need to make incremental improvements. It could be as simple as going to the gym and doing one rep. Then the next day you do two reps, etc. It requires a paradigm shift

It’s more like you have a smart home with dozens of sensors and IoT devices that will have some self-healing capabilities. Don’t forget the always-on listening device and screen so you can be brainwashed daily.

I never made the assertion that Godel’s incomplete theorems are physics. My comment was to point out that if one makes the claim “X is impossible”, the burden of proof lies upon the person making the claim or assertion. Simply making an ass

The thing is, neither position is very useful (in the sense of information gain) as startup advice. You could break the rules and get killed by regulation, or you could play it safe and never have a chance to innovate. Concepts like validat

I wonder what the long term impact will be on their societies. If brides are scarce, would it lead to the betterment of social conditions for women in these (traditionally) chauvinistic societies?

I fear it will only get worse. Dopamine engineering bypasses the rational processes of one’s mind, hijacking one’s emotional apparatus that is ill-prepared to deal with these kinds of clickbait. The truth of the matter is, the West is in a
