People in the neighborhoods with fewer problems (let’s face it, there are many very quiet expensive neighborhoods in the Bay Area) have very “progressive” views on the homelessnesses. They don’t experience its effects frequently, so don’t

How do you define a “problem”? Is poop on the streets a problem? Used syringes? Mountains of trash? High people blocking public areas? Mentally ill people shouting at night and waking up whole neighborhoods? Physical assaults on weaker look

Right - just build more housing. Forget about failing utilities, packed roads, overwhelmed social services, crowded schools! Just build more skyscrapers and move half of the country to SF so that we can all drown in shit together. This over

As I said in other comments, don't underestimate video calls in AR. This could be an instant killer app that will change the industry. How many people can afford at least 2 AR headsets? Not many, but also not too few. Engineers who flo

I also find it interesting how many people (even here in comments) underestimate the potential impact of AR video call tech. It could be as revolutionary, if not more, as Skype, FB, even Street View, etc in terms of connecting people in new

We might just not know what we are missing. I used to think that video calls is a solved problem until I saw Google's Project Starline [0]. Video calls in AR could be vastly better, not just a little bit, but basically a completely dif

As an EV owner. I can use my car in about 95% cases: that’s plenty! Way cheaper than gas, no maintenance required, super comfortable, etc. The remaining 5% is when I need to drive somewhere rough or when it’s very cold outside and I have co
