Just to confirm the European viewpoint, it is pretty much normal in Italy, France and Spain to have similar requirements.

But they are "logical" and at least here in cities, beyond and besides the building codes, having more parking space can be a resource, i.e. unused/excess parking places are commonly rented as there is anyway great scarcity of them for the people leaving in historical buildings that of course at the time they were built had no such requirements.

Of course it is a cost since, just like it is in the US, in the words of the architect:

>But wait, there’s more! That parking space for each unit either has to be at ground level (which is the most valuable real estate on the whole project), or it has to be above or below ground.

we cannot make them float in the air ;).

And of course requirements are not the same in city centres as they are in the outskirts, where areas are larger and building density allowed is much lower.

I don't fully agree with the added cost for parking to be the main reason for high costs of the building, I find the culprit to be more "the market" and also (within limits) the higher standards (and expectations of the customers).

I heve seen dramatic increasings in the costs of plumbing (not only the plumbing in itself, but also the kind of stuff that is installed, "design" basins, taps, showers, etc.), and electricity (here it is BOTH pricey switches, plugs, etc, and greatly increased number of them), besides safety related items.

As a side note, and it depends of course on specific zones, having an underground parking under the building may actually help with seismic compliance and with getting rid of radon, so some of it is not only "added cost", the real cost issues come when the size of the parking is big enough to "trigger" stricter fire safety provisions.

The EXACT same thing happened/is happening here, all the part starting from:

> All that was manageable to an extent before the crash of 2008.

is entirely accurate on this side of the pond, and has been described perfectly.

Before or around 2008 you couldn't find reliable people/contractors because they were 100% busy (while you could find a lot of only half-professionals), now you cannot find them simply because they became almost extincted.

You seem to be the author (of FSet), is that right?

It's an interesting coincidence - just yesterday I learned about FSet while searching for something else and thought it's interesting. However, after arriving at https://common-lisp.net/project/fset/Site/Project.html and reading through the page I left it without installing.

For the very wrong reason, too: I just couldn't find the source code. Obviously, I didn't try very hard, but on the project page (which looks a bit too minimal, btw, some CSS wouldn't hurt) I didn't find a link to the repo. I think it would be great if you added it on top of the project page.

A possible solution to some of the problems would be creating (and for official videos, requiring) a chain of trust, enforced by strong crypto, starting at the original recording device and ending at the viewer's display. Some trusted parties would also probably have to vouch for the start of the chain, too.

That basically sounds like the dream world of DRM people, though.
so if you're reading an old article using Wembley Stadiums as the unit of measurement you should have some sort of B.D (Before Demolishment) and A.R (After Rebuild) dating scheme to keep it straight.

> CosmosDB

Indeed, given projects like Google Spanner the stuff she wrote about CosmosDB doesn't really sound that jaw dropping. Devil is in the details, I suppose, but still no reason to make it sound as if global replication and high uptime were something unheard of.

Also, regarding open source, I presume it's still Microsoft just publishing source code for some of their products but not really cooperating on their development with other parties that much or giving up total control over them?

Though I wouldn't necessarily want to imply that she deliberately wrote it as a PR piece. Depending on her background (of which I know nothing), I suppose she could plead Hanlon's razor wrt to at least some paragraphs ;)
i don't think that's what she does. i think she's the Bob Ross of Linux. what she does is to evangelize learning about low-level debugging / tracing tools and such to a wide audience, with a tone of "you can do this! it's ok if you're a novice". if all talented programmers understood and encouraged beginners like she did, we'd have an embarrassment of great programmers.

He's talking about an optical phased array system. Once it's working, competing with a 35mm system "should" (famous last words) be a matter of scaling up the number of elements to match the lens size. The thing is, once that happens, it's got a huge advantage: it doesn't need any other lenses. At all. Any "lens" you could want is a software configuration away.
I hear they had to do it because it was way "too decimal" as a unit which was unacceptable :).

> You want to stop paying rent, but can't afford to buy your own place so you decide to buy farther out and spend more time traveling.

This is the foundation your argument rests upon, but it's flawed: it assumes that urban property prices will always be high relative to the price of suburban housing due to the cheaper cost of low-rise construction.

This is not inevitable because the proper economic comparison (especially in context) is the out-of-pocket cost in cash not only of housing but also of transportation. If suburban housing is cheaper than urban housing, but suburban transportation is so much more expensive than urban transportation that the combined cost of suburban housing plus transportation is higher than the combined cost of urban housing plus transportation, then it no longer makes microeconomic sense to move to the suburbs.

In point of context, the real cost of suburban transportation is indeed much higher than the real cost of urban transportation. Suburban road infrastructure in America is falling apart because initial construction was subsidized by state and federal governments on the assumption that localities could pay for long-term maintenance, but most localities don't have that kind of budget and would need to raise local taxes by tens of thousands of dollars per household in order to afford proper maintenance (let alone expansions). High-density urban public transit, on the other hand, has high up-front costs for initial development, but can much more easily have its long-term maintenance costs covered by its large user base.

TL:DR - you're wrong because the real cost of suburban lifestyles has been distorted through government policy to make suburban lifecycles artificially cheap, and correcting these distortions would make clear that sprawl is unsustainable.

This is also correct, but there is an additional twist to it.

Non-luxury may be not marketable (besides bringing less margin).

It is a curious market, I have seen more than one case of building companies that were put on their knees by the lack of buyers because they built "too basic" houses, believing that the relatively low price would have procured lots of willing buyers and this simply didn't happen, and they had to apply rebates over rebates, thus losing money in real terms to be able to sell them (if/when this actually happened).

Hyper threading often is harmful when you use it, because while it does let your CPU make forward progress, it does that at the expense of e.g. cache that is evicted.

Obviously depends on your workload, but on my highly parallel "standard" workloads, my experience is that you can get at most 15% more with hyperthreading on (e.g. 4 cores/8 threads) compared to off (4 cores/4 threads), whereas on the cache intensive loads, I get 20-30% LESS with hyperthreading on.

> I've donated nets in the past, but I wonder if they ended up being used for fishing instead.

If the reason for donating the nets is to save lives, then this is no bad thing, right? Those people are putting the nets to the most effective purpose they can find for them. No problem, I say.

EDIT: OK, maybe these nets are suboptimal for fishing. Fine. If the people the nets are going to are in more desperate need of fishing nets than mosquito nets, and you don't want them to use mosquito nets as fishing nets, then you should be sending fishing nets instead of mosquito nets.

There's no honour in telling a hungry fisherman that the mosquito net he is using to catch fish is harmful to the environment. He doesn't give a shit. He either fishes with the net he has, or he starves.

A solution is to regulate it nationally. However, for the US I loathe that idea. I firmly believe communities have the right to regulate themselves in this way, which naturally produces wonderful diversity and character and autonomy and all that good stuff.

I like the option of looking at how/why entrenched landowners control those communities. If the city councils were more broadly representative, that might solve the problem.

If anything, New York City is the poster child for too-centralized regulation. Why are the codes not far more locally governed? Who knows.

That is a different kind of obscurity, as if that were my protocol a spammer could make up a keyword and it would be delivered until I realized that it wasn't myself who made it up.

Maybe there is a way to whitelist keywords and only deliver tags I add one at a time via filters, but it is not the usual interface.
The PDF reference is freely available and pretty readable too. I would recommend just read that.

To answer your question, subsetting a font just means taking a portion of its glyphs and it doesn't imply remapping. In fact for almost sane PDF files you will find ASCII characters mapped to themselves, making text search within decompressed PDF possible. My dirty watermark remover script basically uses qpdf to decompress the thing and then use regular expressions to search for Tj or TJ right after the specified string.
