I feel like this is part of the problem every time these housing affordability conversations come up. The problems are hyper-local, but the proposed solutions are advanced as if they need to be state or even country wide. A lot of "we&

I feel like this is what you'd expect to happen though right? Just from a base intuition on major societal shifts, you'd expect housing prices and availability to outstrip the local ability to afford them. You'd then expect m

OK. So what? Are we more interested in solutions to a “housing affordability crisis” or are we more interested in making sure some old codgers who are stuck in their ways and oppose the march of progress get their just desserts? And if you’

Where do you live that 4k sqft homes are the only new construction? I live in a major metro area and sure in the outskirts and suburbs there’s plenty of McMansion developments, but there’s also a whole host of new townhomes and apartments.

I would argue more than that the housing crisis is an “urban crisis” and a “fraying of the social fabric” crisis. By the first I mean the continued destruction of smaller towns and semi-rural areas. Even if single family homes are more expe

The only universal truth is that no thruths are universal. And I think “suffering builds character” in this and its other forms is a perfect example. Yes, extreme suffering will cause long term problems. And yet at the same time, we’re all

Probably in large part because when you're no longer a monopoloy, you can't soak the consumer for enough extra margin to spend many person years of time and money going nowhere most of the time. That's putting it harshly of c

Rust (and per another commenter, c#) both use the same styling. From having done rust development, you get used to it pretty quickly and it becomes no noisier than the repeated stars in the block comments. I’d prefer just having the comment

Personally I think OpenAI is more like Xerox. They’ve invented this device (their AI models) that can be used with the right inputs to generate copyright infringing outputs. But it still requires a user to generate those outputs by choosing
