It’s much the same in the US. The 2008 housing crisis contributed massively to our current housing shortage, zoning has gotten tricky, and while wages have grown by 20-30% since the 70s, housing prices have doubled. The problem, it seems, i

Is this one of the most expensive places to live in the nation? As population grows globally, I would expect the most desirable homes to outpace others. Anyways, I dunno how things work in other nations, and real estate is so different that

Is this another bot? I almost never talk about Russia. Besides this comment, not a single mention on my first 3 pages of comments anyways.

I simply don’t believe this is as hard as everyone makes it out to be. I still think it’s an issue of heightened expectations. There is a strong belief that everyone should be able to afford a place to live, alone, in some place with a conv

Interesting how this is downvoted when the top comment is essentially saying the same thing.

My guess is that things will largely continue as they have been, but we'll get a lot fewer of those cute little stories about a random one-off issue in a town of 300 people or whatever. Probably not the biggest loss if I'm right,

Clicking through the links in his article, I came across a guy who apparently did the same thing at Apple - he introduced the "auto remove" feature for expired passes added to your wallet, then promptly quit. I had no idea that&#x

I don't think you can. I agree mostly on that point, I just think it's worthwhile to recognize that stereotypes aren't just completely random, is all.

The nm of chips doesn't mean anything anymore, and it's really not more impressive anyways - that's built by a machine, which is the epitome of precision. A hand-built 2nm chip might be more impressive, but also impossible an

It's pretty easy to spot a Rolex once you know a little bit about them. Get a closer look and it's even easy to spot fakes. However, I agree with the first part of your comment in a way, but it's really not that hard to get

...For the same reason anyone can't simply get a job making $250,000/yr? It's not like jobs are something you choose - you request it.

Porsche (and I assume others) does this as well. You need something like $1.5M in Porsche inventory before they'll invite you to purchase a GT3 RS.

Man, what I wouldn't give for one of those Ford GTs though. Really cool car imo. The fact that it comes from Ford kinda makes it more exciting to me. Like yeah, a Ferrari is a Ferrari, but wtf is a Ford doing here?? And why does it fit

This is true for a highly attractive wild lawn as well. When things grow truly wild, they're all competing and none do fantastically . If you've got a beautiful yard full of happy native plants, you've likely done some seri

Humanity is special. All evidence points to us being the only technological species in the universe. Way too many holes in the theories that aliens are simply hiding. If we aren’t in a zoo, we’re probably alone, and that in and of itself ma

Wow, that is one large bee. Looking into these guys, I find it pretty funny that one of the only "sightings" of this bug were a couple of specimens for sale on ebay.

Along this same line of thought, I've always found it particularly fascinating that the universe is exploring the universe through molecules arranged into humans. Is the Universe the conscious one here?

Mason Bees are hilarious bees native to North America that don't fly very well, so they just kinda dive-bomb flowers to get pollen. This is important because that heavy slam (well, heavy for a flower) is enough to distribute pollen int

That's great, but unfortunately most parents don't know how to do that, and as I've read recently, tech literacy is going down in younger generations, not up.

IMO it's a stronger desire to "do no wrong" than to "do right". The adult entertainment industry is rife with trafficking, drugs, assault, etc. - it wouldn't surprise me one bit to hear the youngest generations

Interesting, I missed that. Anyways, while I think this is an important piece of info, we're still talking about porn rather than sex. There's a difference between exploring with an also-awkward person your age and watching someon

I've seen nothing to state that sexual activity is down. Unplanned pregnancies maybe, but that's not the same thing. Do you have a source for this? I could be convinced pretty easily, it just sounds wrong to me.

Critical thinking is quite literally the most difficult thing for children to do. It's one of the very last skills we develop. So yes, the idea is to teach them, but while they're still young and dumb and physically incapable of t

I feel much the same way. This is a real headache of a problem for me because I'm pretty privacy-oriented, but this is a serious, serious problem that needs real intervention. Way too many kids are rotting their brains away either beco

It takes no time at all to figure out if your only real goal is "I wanna be able to use this as deftly as a regular pen". Really no more difficult than knowing how not to smudge marker by closing a book while it's still wet,

Yeah, but I don’t get how “we’ll use any dumbass” equates to “well take your absolute top scientists”.
