Especially ironic because 4 years ago Obama was belittling the idea of Russia as a foe, now they are the Democrats new boogyman: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T1409sXBleg Doubly ironic because it was Hillary that "p

Here's where trump made the comment: https://youtu.be/uAy0R8JOWMo?t=13m39s By the way, he's not calling for hacking. The server is already offline.

I do take my business elsewhere... and I'm actively hoping for them to fail. If there's anything I can do to actively participate in them failing then I'll do that too.

And remember when Hillary "pushed the reset button" with Russia - because (I guess) relations with them were so bad under Bush - but her team screwed up the translation? That was a classic: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2

No sourcing for the main claim of the article. Besides, the cold war is over, doncha know? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T1409sXBleg

I'm wondering how the banks are structuring the liability Yeah, that's what is I was wondering as well. They aren't selling those 1M+ 0% down to GSE's, but maybe somebody on wall street? If not, is it on their books?

All good points. I guess it's not Zuck's loan that troubles me the most, but the idea that similar lenders in SF are giving 100% loans and setting up inside tech companies.

Not sure what you are scared about. The stock market only goes up.

How does it make sense to tie up $1M+ at 1%? Are they turning around and selling the note to Fannie or Ginnie Mae? Unless we are Japan (and that's a slight possibility, but not likely IMO) this will be a total loser - not as bad as b

Shorting? not yet, but considering it. FUD? I said Tesla doesn't have any defendable moats. Reading your post I appear to be correct. All Tesla has is some additional experience and (perhaps) better talent in a few areas. All thin

My takeaway from the article is whether Tesla has any defendable technology advantage? All of its major competitors have existing lines of business they can amortize investment across as well as large dealership networks they can sell into

The article's title is a little misleading. This would shrink the market as a whole. Revenue would go down and earnings would go down as a result. However , it wouldn't have to affect profitability. In fact, profitability woul

but I can appreciate the intent to preserve some degree of income diversity even in expensive neighborhoods I agree, but it's not rich neighborhoods or rich people paying the price but the young middle class.

Do you have something beyond a personal attack to offer?

Wow, this shows that you don't think very highly of low-income people. I think a community of retired russian immigrants would be very pleasant.

If it's self correcting then why does it not correct? If lack of supply is a problem, then restricting that supply by 10-15% is part of the problem.

The human aspect where 20/30 somethings can barely afford rent and school loans at the same time? Where the young have to move out of the city and commute in for their jobs? There's two sides to that coin.

"It is unethical and impractical to hold wealthier individuals accountable" Are a bunch of 20/30 something tech workers really wealthy? How much money do these kids have in the bank? How much school debt? What percent of

I don't get to live by my family. I had to move for my job. I had to make new friends and travel to see old ones. When this job ends I'll probably have to move again. When I retire (God willing) and if I'm still in SF, I&

And I've been over by where FB is building the new apartments. It's nice. Lots of salt ponds around a hilly park that used to be a dump (hence the hill.) There's an old water treatment facility which I think still operates

I know this comment will get downvoted, but I'm going to say it anyway because I think it's true. I see in the article how 10-15% of the units will be reserved for "low income". I understand why they do this. If they d

Good point. I did walk out of a McDonalds w/ touch screens by Union Square a few months ago. It wasn't a statement on robots. I just didn't find the experience very good. I remember being a bit confused by the process. Fu

The fact that you don't realize that the DNC is left wing is a great example of the leftist privilege I'm talking about. Yes, the DNC is left wing. It's way to the left of the RNC. It's just not as far to the left as S

Yes they are, if by censoring you mean they are actively choosing not to promote it because of their political beliefs. That doesn't mean it's a policy or evidence of collusion with the DNC. When the articles came about about the

Are drones and robots really about AI or are they more about processors that can handle intensive image processing and control systems on a cheap, low-power silicon die? Don't get me wrong, I think robotics is gonna be yuuuuuge, but I
