I look forward to the absurd user interface rules that get proposed or even enshrined in federal regulation. It's an impossible task. Alternate path: attach electrodes to kids, measure dopamine levels, and turn off the app if they go t

The place I work has physical security, baristas, and random other staff in an expensive city. Tbh I don't know what they make.

I LOL'd. Let's also remember that every tech company has middle and low wage jobs as well.

Employee claims supersede equity and debt holders. The question is whether the company shuts down with money in the bank or keeps running until it's out. People should remember the board and CEO for screwing over employees.

If people can't own a home do they cease to exist? Weird how "overpopulating" comes up when discussing homes for people that are here already, but not other issues like jobs or office construction.

Part of the political problem is people voting against any form of housing they don't want for themselves. What's degrading is people on the street because CA has such an extreme housing shortage.

It's an odd political outcome, but serves as a model for other housing shapes. The state defined specific things a city has to approve and a timeline they have to approve it in. Poof, we have ~100,000 new homes and a cottage industry b

> a free market Housing supply is not a free market. At least in the US, there's a committee reviewing each parcel deciding how many sqft of interior space, how many kitchens, how tall, and what uses.

The limiting factor in population is the ability to construct housing? Growth in the developed countries with housing shortages keeps getting revised down.

There's a lot of precedence for regulating commerce based on who owns the company and what country the owner is in.

In addition to inventories like other commenters mention, remember this is a capital intensive business. When chip makers collectively add more capacity than is needed, prices drop (ie revenue drops). It could also be "normalizing&quot

I'd phrase it as: ruby, python, and javascript created a generation of programmers that didn't know how to use a type system. When they needed something more light weight and performant, they migrated to the language with the most

My understanding is that it only applies to foreign entities. Still overly broad, but a far cry from the claims of censorship.

TikTok, like any other product with user driven content is using Section 230 to disavow responsibility for the content on their app. If it's not TikTok's speech how can they claim the first amendment? The users speaking can just a
