They should have thrown some financial incentives to the developers instead of trying to institute a ban like crazy people who want to control others. A lot of bay area developers already don't want to deal with venting so you don&#x27

I imagine that a proper range hood makes more of a difference than the stove technology the second you start pan frying anything.

As I understand there are debt-to-income ratios on commercial loans and those are calculated on the rent, so leasing to someone at a lower rent than you used to can bankrupt you since your lender will require you to come up with the cash to

caddy is written in terms of net/http, nginx is written right on top of epoll/kqueue with bespoke HTTP/1x parser in a manually memory managed language. I think the point was not that go is "faster" than anything, it

I would disagree. I walk, drive and ride all over SF, including TL/SOMA because I'm not too squeamish and it's on the way between a lot of pairs of destinations. I can tell you that if you took these 3 maps and overlaid them

In other words avoid density and transit. Best way to avoid bs in one of the densest cities in the US is to hang in the burbs.

why do you need io_uring from Go? It has a nicer interface than epoll but you’re not coding to its interface.

all of these are pre-existing problems with public transport that have solutions along the anarchy<->totalitarianism spectrum, with US, European and Asian mega-cities' transit agencies serving as illustrative examples of tradeoff

totally, I think the social credit score system in China, background checks for employment, no-fly lists are all things we should look at when building such systems. Ultimately though it's not going to be fair, I don't really care

IDT that's the future, and here's why: if you go to any modern skyscraper you'll find that elevators ask you which floor you're going to rather than just which direction. Applying this in 2 dimensions, it becomes obvious

I would if the "bus" was small, traveled more like an uber pool (to my destination rather than along a corridor with 30 useless stops a block apart), and if the identity of those strangers was known to a system that could then rem

public transport as implemented in Asia and Europe, especially for last (couple) mile sort of uses is an antiquated idea in a world of self-driving. In a city like San Francisco you could literally ban cars in downtown and have the local tr

does some JS idiom rely on TCO or is this for transpiled languages?

Sure and you can live in Chicago without venturing to the south-side, most people who live on the west-side in LA only go to south LA for events and stay out of east LA. My point is that SF is a bit odd in that it's a county and city t

SF is weird and should probably not be considered a city for these kinds of analyses without Oakland and possibly the rest of the bay: the majority of the violence occurs in Oakland.

SF in a lot of ways is a microcosm of the US and the broader world which is currently suffering what can only be described as emergent behavior in social networking. Like unintended gradient descent to get everybody maximally polarized by l

what are the security requirements put forth by the carriers? is the backhaul encrypted in any way? are the devices tamper resistant? on one hand this seems similar to 5G stations where third parties have physical access but on the other th

they're right though: cars are unnecessarily massive. Every technological step forward like high strength steel, digital communication bus instead of massive wiring harnesses, alu-alloys and composites is pissed away by making larger a

right, the transition has to span generations and in that time ebikes, escoots, wheelchairs and mobility scooters will probably converge on 20mph personal transport that can fit into public transport for longer hops

more like memory mis-reporting, since when you mmap a file in, IIRC that counts against page cache rather than memory usage (you can evict the page without causing write IO so the memory isn't "used")

it can't be factual though, otherwise you'll have found compression with infinite ratio. I think the next step is a model that can say "idk" rather than coming up with bullshit

Not a lot for total compensation for a software engineer with non-zero tenure in the bay area. For a point of comparison an SFPD officer starts at 105k and gets up to 145k before overtime and this is pretty average in the bay.

The problem is that if your company is routinely hiring people on their accolades (or just trust me bro) alone, you'll eventually end up with people who _can't_ merge linked-lists. The FAANG model of making people solve BS program
