100 luxury homes are still 100 more homes in the supply pool. The people that move in are presumably vacating their previous, more affordable homes.

arbital's article on Bayes Theorem contains a waterfall diagram that just perfectly encapsulates the idea, at least to me. Linking the whole article but if you scroll it's the 5th image. https://arbital.com/p&#x

Jellyfin would be my recommendation if you are concerned about this. It's like Plex but open-source.

I found this forced me to use vim's natural language more rather than relying on hjkl for the majority of my navigation, since it was ergonomically uncomfortable and I wanted to preserve vim's mnemonics by not rebinding.

Just chiming in to say I've been satisfied as an Enpass user as well. Felt like a good middle-ground to me and I bought the app before the restructured their pricing model so I was grandfathered in.

A fun theory, but these kind of mental exercise to re-interpret an irrational decision as rational, repeatedly for certain individuals, seems frighteningly familiar. Not everything is 4-D chess. Sometimes unforced errors are just that.

it's a very small thing, but the booleans in python can be added like integers, with True being 1 an False being 0. So your comprehension could have been: s = sum(i % 3 for i in range(1, 10\*8, 2))

can we please stop with this 'freedom of speech' bogeyman that Musk spouts? He cherry-picks what previously banned accounts get unbanned, he fires employees for making public tweets he doesn't like, as well as firing employe

Bernie Sanders is not a Democrat. Why is DNC supporting a Democrat over the non-Democrat in the Democratic primary morally wrong?

by camel_Snake 4y ago
Regarding your first point, I'm not sure why this sentiment exists. Twitter isn't any more free-speech than it was before. We've seen some accounts un-banned, like Babylon Bee but not Donald Trump. We've seen plenty

How do you handle the default quality on their devices? I believe Plex defaults to 720p which forces unnecessary transcoding, and this is a per-user per-device default setting. I have to continuously remind my users how to update their de

Came here to mention this podcast as well. By far one of my favorites, and I do think the Sumerian episode is one of the best.

Anecdotal but Lil Nas X was very well known on twitter before he got popular. I recognized his handle from screenshots and made the connection only after Old Town Road came out.

I feel like we've seen this issue discussed a lot with the recent Harvard lawsuits but higher-education is not a meritocracy. If it were, the legacy system wouldn't exist.

You raise great points, but often a big motivator to play a specific game is the social aspect - playing with friends. Stadia gave me access to that when I wouldn't have otherwise. I have some really nice memories thanks to it. Not t

My favorite Stadia story is how when Outriders launched, Stadia was on entirely different code branch and release from the other platforms. Weapon/armor scaling and skill effects were different - leading to an entirely sub-meta for th

Nah. Google execs and others keeping making the mistake that cloud gaming should target the high-end gamers. It should be the middle-ground between mobile gaming and pc/console gaming, IMO. Low barrier to entry with some AAA games.

The subscription is optional. I loved Stadia because I only really play one game, Destiny, and I could play it year round for just the annual season pass and 0 hardware investment. Came to ~$100 a year for all my gaming needs and it was p
