I think we probably agree to a large extent. There are a lot of comments here, so I want to quote one of my responses to another person in an effort to inject some consistency, but tl;dr the reason I think decriminalization is the issue is

Thanks for your comment, it's good to have perspectives from other people with real life experiences. It sounds like you're in a better place which is great to hear :) Me and most people I met who were victimized by drug users &qu

It's hard, and for the record I'm also anti-prohibition about many substances (just not meth). I had weed in my pocket when I was assaulted that I campaigned to legalize in WA. I shared streets with plenty of harmless drug users t

Surprisingly yes, they were caught with much credit and appreciation to the detectives of SPD. In fact the police were very helpful in accessing support and counseling, and I should be completely honest that I would have described myself as

So much sympathy for drug users and business owners, but what about the private citizens who get victimized by these drug users? I was beaten nearly to death (in broad daylight, in a residential neighborhood) in Seattle in 2020 by two men e

A bail bond is like a mortgage where the money down up front grants you access to the full loan amount. $700k down for a loan on $250m sounds like a pretty sweet deal, so I would assume the parties involved are reputable people and all part

I think you'r point is that people with 10 or fewer years of experience (which I think is many people in this thread based on the comments) might have a sample bias issue that stems from working around fewer total managers and fewer co

This is actually pretty consistent across companies: being the most senior person around when the last manager leaves. Sometimes it's a senior dev, sometimes a PM, heck I've seen it be somebody from the UX org. The path of least r

We once landed a $mm deal because I told a CTO to his face that most of his teams were probably incapable of accurately describing the technologies they use and how/why. 90% of the time it works every time ;-)

Zillow is totally fine financially. Yeah they lost $10b which is bad news but they didn't bet the farm, and as they continue to invest r&d in renter/landlord oriented services they should be fine. It's the Expedia of hous
