Unfortunately, there is excess demand generated by non-human corporate entities. There is not a supply/demand problem among humans-who-need-a-place-to-live. But there is investor demand for an investment vehicle that has the tax and as

A byproduct of large financial entities investing against each other in the market comprised of places where people need to live. Maybe that was not in the public's interest.

Your statements do not have the effect you intended. I am now interested in studying the pro-PFOS pollution propaganda and its sources.

Thanks Mike for coloring and shaping so much of what I call my own imagination. I never knew how much I have lived in debt to you. Rest in peace.

The food safety laws of 1906 and the safe cosmetics laws of 1935. Seriously, the death and destruction caused by lead, morphine and mercury in everyday things was not a joke.

Every President is equivalently, and rightly, castigated by the opposition party over their executive orders. Every executive order by every President is an abuse of power, as far as I'm concerned. 55/yr for Trump? 44/yr for

If I host a site that is vulnerable to XSS, is it inadvertant Iaas?

It is a good question. I am glad that the FTC is testing it.

We should demand good journalism. The remainder of this article quotes more than a dozen sources. It seems to rise above pure political commentary by a fair chunk. There is no surprise to me that the chair of a tech privacy panel is opposed

If true, it's impressively foolish. Still, pre-BUSL Terraform is an achievable goal.

I am sorry to see you being downvoted. I feel completely betrayed by 3M. All of the fondness I had for the brand from floppy disks to early post-it notes, painter's tape, and scotch taping gifts with my mom.... all of them are tained w

Discussions of what is/is not syntactic sugar are unapproachable for me because I cannot get past the abuse of sugar's essential functions in the tortured metaphor.

Outsourcing the production and management of your critical IP to CCP-controlled factories is fine, but letting me wrench on my own 2025 Harley is going to end America?

I am baffled by the fact that NYPD can avoid the determination of legality by withdrawing subpoenas. It seems like it would be in X/Meta/Alphabet's interest to get the question in front of a judge in order to require warrante

Precisely. But if you don't spend even $200 more on the Macbook Pro to get 16GB, you are leaving a bit of the M3's performance on the table due to swapping. So, $1799. Or step up to the M3 Pro with 18GB at $1999. And on the Air yo

This has been my experience. My 15" M2 Air has never gone off the deep end on these tasks. Cool and quiet during streaming and heavy multitasking. To be fair, I felt compelled to spend hundreds of dollars extra on 24GB and 1TB to addre

A "bug" is a very generous term for how severely punitive CC 1.x, 2.x and 3.x were. It was flatly bad and wrong and did exactly the opposite of what it was promised to do--permit rights holders to let users share their work and at
