So the risks have more to do with adoption of the language than the language itself? I studied Fortran in my college programming languages class (in the early 2010s) and loved it! Always wondered why it isn't used more.

There probably are too many people in SF and spreading out would increase much needed housing supply in that market. On the topic of property tax, that very well might be true for CA, although NY and TEX property tax seems similar despite t

Despite these concerns, Texas and Florida are gaining population and firms while California and New York are losing population and firms. How might this play out over the years ahead? What might this mean for the long term prosperity of th

To stay on topic: does it seem to be making a difference in Texas? How or how not? Companies are moving to Texas, and cities like Austin seem to be popular amongst people who agree with leftist perspectives. fwiw, I'm from up upstate

Was listening to a Peter Zeihan video yesterday about what makes Texas economically successful and he was saying that these big firms love Texas so much because it's a red state with blue cities: https://www.youtube.com/

A few years ago (pre IBM acquisition) a friend of mine at Goldman Sachs said that Red Hat was the greatest company in the world because they "sold free software".

> It is not clear to me that providing the list would be constructive I agree, it can't be clear unless you know what's on the list. More transparency is better than less, right? We're all adults here.

I guess I'm confused about what you're after here. Are you suggesting that the primary caregiver should be able to lean more on an increased amount subsidized daycare in order to pursue a personal life by working instead of stayin

This just isn't true, that is unless, you've been tricked into tying up your personal identity with your job? When my wife and I had our son everything became clear and we realized that success at work was just a means to an end.

Small-town and low cost of living WFH is unbeatable for those raising a family. It'd take me about a 100% pay increase to drag me back to the city.

Sounds like the old tool maintainer isn't leveraging their scarcity power. If their skills are in high demand and short supply, and they can't be replaced, then shouldn't they make things take longer as they learn new tool? O
