I've noticed this w/ using LLMs for programming, esp while learning Zig. Outside of popular languages it seems like they always hallucinate.

We just seldomly build housing to the point where it reduces prices. Building housing to meet demand will reduce rents. They did it in Austin already. https://www.kvue.com/article/money/economy/boomtown-2040&

It feels like tech generally has a CEO vision problem. Andy Jassy + Sudar for example. off the top of my head I can only think of Zuckerburg, and maybe Satya. (Although Satya is more an exceptional operator than visionary.)

Late to the party here, but yeah 100% I believe in property tax like more or less every other state has done. The way California has done property tax is hilariously bad, commercial properties get no cost basis step up forever? until recent

You're missing one more demographic that's a pretty big deal. California homeowners insulated from property tax due to prop 13.

Sigh, sad b/c I actually know this, but just a small correction. That's an anonymous Twitter/X account @BasedBeffJezos not the actual head Jeff himself. Founder(?) of the e/acc philosophy

It's a twitter thing, that was picked up by the more twitter brained VCs. Mostly an AI thing originally I think? (I'm addicted to the site, but don't follow the d list celeb drama lol.) Stands for effective accelerationism, m

Really more of an e/acc manifesto. Interesting to see a twitter thing slowly leak into the mainstream one step at a time.

I think a better argument could be made for tax incentives. Large employers, think Amazon in Seattle, often have special agreements with the city for taxes. Without the employees coming in and supporting local businesses there's a decl

I don't think it's totally driven by the govt, but it's driven by the companies that want to preserve certain benefits and influence in the govt. Their interests just happen to be against, literally everyone else in terms o

I've always thought about this being the settling point at the end of the day. Putting aside the debate between what people like/is effective. FAANG companies have a lot of political leverage when they have in office employees. Am

The deadlock in the bay area is much worse than than NYC, not sure about new york state. E.g. NYC has a maximum amount of time you're allowed to argue about some new development, the bay area doesn't. Generally speaking in the Nor

It can be when you can artificially induce a housing shortage. E.g. I have a friend whose area has become extremely popular for city people and prices have gone up a ton over the past couple years. Their father owns a bunch of property in t

I don't think it needs to be "mainstream" even in the upcoming gen, in the way that phones/laptops are "mainstream". For the initial market I think that replacing work/gaming PCs is a good enough start. I&

as a fellow beta tester, they are expanding their service area to include a majority of the city incl Mission. Totally agree w/ you rn thou right now it's basically a neat party trick I have to go out of my way to show off instead

Here's a question I've had and maybe someone from HN can answer it. The (movie) streaming wars have content as a differentiator in the market, but it doesn't seem like Spotify/Apple music is effected. Assuming both the R

Does that already exist with shitty vs better seats/areas in concert venues? Really the place where this happens, much to the hatred of everyone is things like VIP tables at Clubs/Music festivals. The ppl leaving a 50k tab for 100
