Every permit has a limited time it can be open. You are not allowed to begin working until you open the permit. Each permit is very, very expensive. Let's say I wanted to remodel my bathroom in two stages: first sink and floor and toil

We aren't allowed to start a home build and finish it over time. You aren't allowed to move into an "unfinished" house. You have to get a permit for every tiny thing. You don't really own your house the way you can

> most of them are full on charities Which would still be fully tax-deductible. The portion going to staffing should not be a charitable deduction. They should pay property tax on their performance halls like secular ones do.

Under compression. If you tried to stop a dry-stack wall from moving, it'd be under tension.

It has the roughest ride of any public transit I took in Japan. Was very surprised.

If the wall is going to move a little shotcrete ain't going to stop it.

You got to spend money to make money. Larry Ellison and Oprah spend money on real estate, the Waltons on crushing American small business, and Buffet on fleecing poor people buying mobile homes. The EV revolution and much cheaper space acce

Public transit isn't usable because we don't build housing dense enough. For example, Seattle area just spent tens of billions on light rail expansion, then built the outlying stations next to the freeway. Half the walkable distan

You must not be familiar with multipath interference. Radio isn't quite as synchronous as you believe it to be.

Tesla makes money and has made most EVs out there. I doubt the remaining customer base is large enough for the other companies to make a profit.

Before humans in NA it was a lot wetter (not because of humans obv). Fire wouldn't spread as much, just like it doesn't as much in the PNW.

In Western forests, I don't believe it's known if they're "a part of nature". What is known is the pre-Columbian population regularly shaped forests using fire and so forests adapted over thousands of years to this,

Patch lacks the diff from original commit to the commit-having-patch-applied-to. So if the name of a function referenced in the patch changed between those two, it will fail to apply, yet 3-way merge could continue. Additionally patch is ve

I suppose it must be because you can create commits which don't exist in Perforce.

3-way merge has more information available to avoid some conflicts that would have to be manually resolved with the patch. Otherwise, you got the idea.

Fig is an abstraction over top of Perforce. Before fig was a git-UI-based tool and it is gone. Mercurial's interface is way better than git. The fact that Mercurial does not scale to a Google-sized monorepo is not an indictment of Merc

Ah, thank you, I don't think anyone's tried to fix the failing schools before, so if they just get started on that this whole voucher thing is unnecessary.

Yes, it's normal. I've rarely had a time when at least one direct coworker wasn't doing work but still employed, sometimes multiple. Why still here? I'm sick and have two young kids, and I just find projects that interes

Why do you think that? My experience is the exact opposite: parents choose the toughest, best schools, to great cost to them.

Then you don't live in or near school districts failing to educate their students for decades: Detroit, Baltimore, even parts of Seattle fail to graduate young people capable of reading and writing near grade level, let alone understan

Infrastructure is a natural monopoly. Of course it isn't a free market, just like roads. I wish we had privatized roads, maybe we wouldn't be so car-dependent.

You can read the whole book if you want to waste your time. It's easy: racism is white people not wanting to be around gangs; black culture glorifying beating up old Asian people is not racism.
