Cause that would require billions of dollars and a new state bureaucracy. I think building tons and tons of affordable housing would be great, but where's the money? I don't think the public support for an enormous housing bond is there yet.

And of course any time you tried to put down an affordable housing complex, you'd have to fight the neighborhood. SF had a proposed 100% affordable housing complex in the Mission that got shot down by the neighbors. Even if the money was there, you'd have to deal with the fact that people hate living next to poor people. So we'd probably need another state assembly bill that said something like, "if this complex has 80% affordable housing units no municipality can block it," and given the inability to pass SB827...there's no way that's going to pass.

These are the kinds of things people should talk about, to move the Overton window. But anyway, as of now, building tons of public housing just isn't politically feasible.

>by creating more desirable places to live, not by trying to find a way to pack more people in

There's effectively infinitely much suburbia in America already. It's the "packed in" experience (walkable streetscapes, transit-connected mid- and high-rise housing, etc) that's scarce, and that we need more of.
There's a few problems with making Highly-Enriched Uranium commercially available, even before we get to radiation.

Thorium reactors [1], on the other hand, might be more feasible due to their lack of weaponization potential, cheaper fuel, and reduced waste. However, Thorium reactors are much more complex, and will likely never approach the small scale of KiloPower; they also have significant startup costs, remain commercially unproven, and have a more dangerous fuel cycle (in terms of radioactivity).

I've never seen the appeal of Pocket Casts or these almost-a-service podcast apps.

I've been using Antennapod for over a year now and it a great podcast app and does a lot of stuff the paid ones won't even do, including syncing what episodes I've listened to to gpodder.net, searching iTunes and other websites and just having an easy to use, simple UI.

It's just a shame that these FOSS apps which have much lower overheads as well, just can't market themselves as a commercial proprietary application like Pocket Casts can.
Cynical fatalism plays better when the supposed perpetrator isn't NPR. Speaking of organizations I would trust with my personal info, it's hard to think of any better.
It sounds like you’ve already resolved this, but for the benefit of any others that stumble upon this, my solution for deletion of a large bucket is to set a lifetime rule with a short TTL, after which the objects are deleted.

Set that rule, and come back to a beautifully empty bucket 24 hours later, after Amazon’s gnomes have takes care of the issue for you.

It would be these events were I'd get the deja vu, the feeling of having a memory of experiencing something before, then tingling from the right shoulder down my arm to when it hit my fingers I'd feel a little hit in the head and lose words. That part is the seizure. I didn't know that was a type at all before looking it up online.

These episodes grew over time too. That first I remember on a bike, the next was when reading a book and I was so confused where the words went and why I could only see symbols. Since it's the temporal lobe, only words. Though I talk to multiple people, like my mom, she says there were times in the past where, when talking to her, I'd have to say hold on and sit in silence for 30 seconds before being able to comprehend again. Eventually got to an every other day frequency before being told that those events could be seizures and I should get it checked out.

In terms of seriousness, it's hard to say when that happened. I was told it looked like the benign DNET tumor and baby seizures that stopped with some drugs and I thought that was pretty funny how that happened to me. But then side effects from the first drugs kicked in and I had to switch. And then side effects from that drug kicked in and said screw it and have the surgery to get ride of the tumor and hopefully the part causing the seizures. Well that didn't work out, I still have different drugs and problems with those, and turns out it's a cancer tumor. Quite the turn.

The seizures themselves aren't too serious, because there are drugs to stop them, but the side effect problems are the big part.

What are the symptoms you've been having?
Nope, I'm sorry but their terms and conditions are aweful, and do not protect you at all.
If you can, you should version your api, and if you didn’t yet you can start v2 with your new breaking changes.

I’d reach out via email to your users to migrate to the new version, and you can track how many are still using the old one. Timeline to move may vary, but I’d say that 3-6mo is relatively common.
The linked article[0] contains more narrative around the hobo lifestyle and the rules listed in the submitted article

Boil Up - specifically, to boil one's clothes to kill lice and their eggs; generally, to get oneself as clean as possible

Jungle - an area off a railroad where hobos camp and congregate

No, what I’m saying is that correlational studies are fundamentally incapable of proving causation[0]. Furthermore, despite 50 years of nutritional advice in line with the study you linked to, and despite reductions in red meat consumption[1], health outcomes have gotten catastrophically worse, not better. So maybe the conclusions that people are drawing from these studies are wrong.

Read Good Calories, Bad Calories by Gary Taubes if you want to do a deep dive on how so many people can be so wrong about something for so long. It will completely undermine your faith in experts along the way.

The advantages of space mining would eliminate dirty mines on earth and there are no shortages of asteroids to fight over. From Space.com:

"...Most asteroids lie in a vast ring between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. This main asteroid belt holds more than 200-asteroids larger than 60-miles (100 km) in diameter. Scientists estimate the asteroid belt also contains between 1.1 million and 1.9 million asteroids larger than 1km (3,281 feet) in diameter and millions of smaller ones...."

This is most certainly untrue. All you have to do is consider the fact that all uncooked meats come with a warning. This is because it is well known, and admitted by the meat and egg industries, that raw and undercooked meats and eggs are unsafe for consumption. This is because of the environments they come out of. Greens on the other hand are not fertilized with manure or subject to E.Coli laden environments during processing. The only unsafe greens are mainly things like alfalfa sprouts that can come into contact in the processing chain. I'm surprised at all of the disinformation.
But even then if Reddit wants to be left leaning and censor out conservative views why shouldn't they be free do that?

I'm a conservative but think private companies should be free to choose political sides. My hope is that market forces lead them to a more neutral stance but that may not happen.

Freedom of speech shouldn't trump a private companies freedom to act as they please.
You launch eastwards anyway. With WSMTR to your east you get the advantage of clean air to a degree that even Canaveral can't guarantee.
If it didn't have that exception, then you're essentially saying "this group of people is barred from starting their own business", which is a pretty broad thing to do in a society that prides itself on free enterprise and entrepreneurship.

From GDPR-shield's terms and conditions (https://gdpr-shield.io/terms):

1. GDPR Shield Service Overview

The Service provides a social media management tool that enables users to customize the link preview window of websites under their control on social platforms, in addition to other analytics tools to help bolster users' social media content.

...what? Is this a botched copy/paste job?
Medicare and Medicare costs may not be out of the recipients pocket, but they are paid out of someone’s pocket.
Australian here, government 100% funds the ABC and the reporting produced is better than the commercial networks of 7, 9 and 10.

It also funds most of the SBS, a foreign language service meant to foster multiculturalism and introduce foreign cinema and television to those who wouldn't normally have easy access to it. And they do a lot of English language subtitles for smaller foreign releases.
You're still gathering the data on every request. And since all requests go to the site anyway (to load the JS) you might as well just put a text saying, "nothing to see here for EU citizens"—that'd be a lot cheaper than buying this silly service and it would send the same signal.

This service isn't blocking requests to your site, it's just showing the visitors different content after the fact.
That explanation is the first one I've seen that makes GDPR sound reasonable.

The main problem overall is that the EU appears to consider information about someone as being owned by that person. That is quite foreign from a US individual perspective and having some blogs. I don't see how the learning I have acquired about people places and things, which I acquired without any promise of confidentiality, can be owned by anyone but me. Are libraries and newspapers required to scrub their shelves and archives? And if not, what is the limiting principle?
Yep, you are absolutely right that there is still (some) NIMBYism and an overemphasis on SFH in Seattle. The distinction I want to draw with SFBA is the degree.

There's a tipping point where the NIMBYs have enough power to block all or most upzoning and development, and I think — fortunately for us — Seattle has not passed that threshold. SFBA has.
Pretty interesting article. Sadly, while reading, I had a hard time not dreaming about whether we could afford a home here in SF if they filled in, oh, 1/4 or so of the bay with high rise housing. :(
You're choosing a position based on a personal bias and ignore scientific evidence by industry experts. You also won't back up your unfounded claims and chose to ignore the challenge I've presented. I wonder why...
I didn't edit anything, what?
If you're so concerned about a 'podcast ecosystem being built on open, decentralized standards limits' then why are you even talking about a proprietary app in the first place? You're trying to set up a strawman here that you yourself say that you don't agree with.

Just tell people to use a FOSS podcast app like Antennapod and to avoid closed silo listings and move on.
Please be clear: are you talking about

- the NSA, CIA, and FBI,

- Facebook, Apple, Amazon, Netflix and Google, or

- AT&T & Comcast,

or something else?
Yes YIMBYism will cause rents in certain places with artificially suppressed rent to rise, but otherwise generally reduce rents. In SF there's a lot of resistance since this would also cause landlords to tear down and rebuild otherwise rent-controlled units.

> Even rent-controlled units are market rate if you are trying to move to a new home.

And this is one of the primary holes in how "rent control" helps the poor. It just helps a lucky few (for no specific good reason).

Which is illegal to begin with. You even forgot to replace the part that explains what the service does and left the part that says that gdpr shield "provides a social media management tool".

You're selling something that just basically does a geoip lookup, and then tries to block people from an entire continent, with pure JS, which can be easily avoided, by the way. I'm shooting buffer an email to let them know you're infringing on their legal material.
Just dealing with file extensions is enough of a head spin. We stopped trying to differentiate between .xls, .xlsx, *.xlst... etc. to show an Excel icon for a file uploaded to our SaaS and just went with a generic file icon in the end.
Overall I'm content with the GDPR as it is a long needed corrective action for the path we've been treading in the West as a whole.

One requirement, imho, is quite ridiculous, however. That is the need for entities which need to abide by the GDPR but do not have a presence in the EU to assign a representative in the EU.

This part definitely needs some relaxation. Just complying with the regulation ought to be enough as the first step, especially for start-ups.

I'll speculate that one common way this mindset gets acquired is by encountering enough ways that the system really is rigged, or that the pieties learned as a child seem false. There's not much distance between "the system is rigged" and "I want to be the predator, not the patsy." I'm not defending this way of thinking: I think it's wrong. But to counter something it helps to understand it, not just marvel at it.

That's much easier in China because all the important local apps are obviously available without the Play store. Like banking, ridesharing, payment, etc. App publishers in the rest of the world always depend on Play store and it's a real pain for people with Chinese phones who're travelling/moving.

Your implication is that it is reasonable for this group to believe that NIMBYism will somehow prevent rents from rising, "because we don't trust tech workers," which is counterfactual. In this case, low- and high-pay renters' interests are almost entirely aligned.

Unlikely. Vision is so metabolically expensive that it disappears really quickly once it no longer confers an advantage.

There are other interests that get balanced against the individual's right to privacy, including public interests like newsworthiness.

But indeed that can go both ways - the website of a newspaper might be required upon request to remove a 20-year-old crime blotter item reporting a single petty theft conviction for an otherwise law-abiding non-celebrity; they wouldn't be required to do that for a 2-year-old murder conviction.

I don't think there's an upper bound on knowledge at all to begin with -- the pool of known facts for just about anything non-trivial is huge, and there's the known unknowns, and there's the unknown unknowns. If that's true, then it follows that it might be hard (if possible) to find an upper bound on the knowledge for python. There are so many ways you could use python (and related concepts and technology), a combinatoric explosion of complication and unique experience is guaranteed.

To go with this, an intended (but maybe not properly conveyed) second point of the post was to stop saying "I'm an expert at X" and start saying "I'm familiar with X and have used it to do Y, and deal with Z -- spending a long time debugging problem A when it came up".

The only way you can "know" a piece of code is by reading it, I would consider that table stakes, so for me "knowing" python means reading the interpreter code. But, I think it doesn't stop there because you could consider "expert"-level pythonistas to also include a working model of the system underlying to write super efficient python code.

The point was that rather than claiming you're "good" with python, get more specific about what you know about it, and it should be relatively easy to note what you do and don't know, and cut down on the feeling that there's a world you don't know (which there almost always is).

> Want to solve your impostor syndrome? Repeat after me (preferably in a tech interview): “While I wouldn’t consider myself an expert on A, I have read about A and done X, Y, and Z with it so I’m confident I can solve problems with it and debug it when things go wrong.”

This line makes me cringe (and I wrote it), but the point I was trying to make is that we should stop boiling down language familiarity to terms like "good" and "expert", it's subjective, and depends on the application a lot of the time, just be able to recount the bits of knowledge you've gained with experience that you're sure about.
People (atleast me) ignore warnings quite often, they aren’t safe haven if you ask me.
Plus, they can determine whether the bird is carrying a payload.
If one believes density is a good thing that makes for better living, then adding more units should make it a more desirable place to live, driving more demand, and increasing prices. SOMA might be an interesting example of this, where it used to be cheap and undesirable, but after a critical mass of housing was built, it became much more livable and expensive. Of course, there are hundreds of things having simultaneous impacts, so it is impossible to isolate the effects of one.
This is not at all a secure scheme. I would not be surprised to find a set of JohnTheRipper patterns already available to test these possibilities against a password hash leak.

Just use a password manager, let it generate a random password for each website, and let it do the 'remembering' and the submitting of the password to the website.

Exactly my thought when I read this. Google really outbloated Java with Electron.
Startups could further help this issue by hiring remote and/or setting up shops in low cost areas. (I have no clue if Stripe does this already.) The only reason for startups to be in high tax, high cost SFBA is to raise money. Once you hit escape velocity there’s no reason to stay.
It depends on the startup.

If it's run by sociopaths who want to keep their employees in a state of perpetual crisis in order to maximize the value of their shares, it's pretty awful.

As economic opportunity becomes further concentrated in urban areas this issue will only become more significant. Tech companies have a strong incentive to combat malignant housing policy in cities like SF so that they can continue to attract talent.
