If Trump acted more like Xi with regards to public speaking, but the actions were still the same, thing would be a lot different. My point is that Trump could sign/execute/order all the same exact things he's done, but if I j

You're incredibly lucky that Advil/Ibuprofen has any affect on your headaches. Imagine getting them every other day and no OTC has any affect. This is me until I went to a neurologist. Botox + Triptans can usually stop mine ~98% o

FWIW I'm in the US and it's the same. If I have a headache I call in a sick day. This is going to vary more between blue/white collar workers than same fields in different countries.

No True Scotsman? They are progressive (Statistically)... it's just that they are human too. Meaning they can have progressive ideology and vote for weed, pronouns, but when you touch the wallet, not so much.

So does decrease in demand! Pinch you again.

I think you need to look at rate of change ( 1st derivative ), not net terms. Meaning population increase slowed down relative to new housing builds. OP didn't say this, but it's what I assume.

You are reversing cause/effect though. SF rents have gone up, that didn't decrease demand. Why did SD rents drop, not because people left because it was too expensive, that doesn't make sense.

Texas... lots of cheap land to build and some of the least expensive new home prices in the country.

You say this like it is such a obvious problem to solve, and from a naive point of view, maybe so. But each of the reasons why things the way they are isn't just stupidity. It's backed by people's preferences for living. EVER

"The problem of housing is that regular people want to live in NYC, and Chicago, and LA, and all of these places, and relatively near to where their jobs are" It's not clear in your phrasing, but it sounds like this is a casu

>I am in favor of building new housing, but I'm even more in favor of reducing wealth inequality. I think we can do both, but we need to be deliberate about it. ... And that's why nothing gets done.

>Paying $1 to government shills and corrupt capitalists for every $1 And then some forensic accounting happens and a paper is published citing that government built homes cost twice as much as privately built, and the program stops.

Not a bad idea, should have started with a 2 family house before trying to build a high speed train.

I think the sad part was the people entering the IT workforce for only money. Don't get me wrong, I understand why and not gatekeeping. But it was the first time I know that people with computer skills were highly in demand, so anyone

I have a few IOS devices, you know what prevents me from using them? It's not the battery, its the lack of OS updates. I can't install new certificates, or get access to app stores. They're useless. In fact, the lack of a rep

Another example: When taking HOV and the map asks you if you want HOV enabled, there are no options I can force the navigation to take me to the nearest HOV lane. If it happens to be there, it will say to use it, but I can't say "

You changed the goalpost... If LA or California wanted to enact these laws, they could. Passing at a federal level is a non starter.

California is about the size of Japan with the same GDP. They could pass their own funded project for public transportation. It's a problem with the entire US needs to support it, that is politics 101.

100% This is true. The only people I hear clamoring for trains in non urban areas are younger online folks (mostly living in urban areas). I rarely hear anyone ask for it in suburbia.

If Japan was a US State, it would be fifth in size. So you maybe right, who knows, but there is nothing stopping a state adopting these laws and seeing how it works out. California could do it, why not?

That is 100% correct as a foundation. However when you guide the AI as a constant, and the model behaves MUCH differently (given a baseline guide), that is where the problem lies. It's as if your 'guidance' has to be variable

Traders have been using satellite images from around the world for DECADES, it seems more likely to be true than a conspiracy from a insider who actually makes the decision or has first line access to it.
