Not really. I understand that Econ 101 gives a lot of people a mystical belief in the power of supply and demand. But real economies are not governed by one or two simple equations. If they were, building more and bigger freeways would solve traffic problems. It doesn't. [1]

As an example, look at how many Bay Area companies over the past decades have vigorously opened offices elsewhere, often moving whole slices of their companies to lower-cost areas. They are quite explicit this is due to rising costs. If costs didn't rise, or were rising more slowly, we would have even more demand for housing here. Or, put differently, reasonable increases in supply might not actually help current residents. But they could well increase pain for current residents: more traffic, more gentrification, more destruction of existing buildings and neighborhoods.

So it may be less "poor understanding of certain shallow econ dogmas" and "a strong understanding of what they stand to lose, and how often they've lost at the hands of affluent white people who are sure they know how to fix things". Consider James Baldwin, for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T8Abhj17kYU

Jaded...absolutely. I'm still waiting for my hoverboard. NASA likes to brand a lot of their missions as "looking for evidence or possibility of extraterrestrial life", and I certainly understand that, despite the science being much more grounded and concrete. Still...if there is any hope of finding that in our solar system, Europa, and other moons of Jupiter, have far greater possibilities, relatively, than a well studied barren rock.

IMO, leave Mars to Musk and the like and start focusing NASA's resources and extensive science probe/lander experience on more mysterious targets.

Or give NASA a lot more money for (not-manned) exploration, and do both. That works too.
At the risk of sounding obtuse... is the answer you're looking for not exactly (1/2)^(100)?

Or we could fill in the avenues with high rise housing. I cannot stop dreaming of taking a 5*10 block section of the Richmond or Sunset and build a massive arcology on it. All Bay Area housing issues might be solved in one swoop.
You can actually refresh specific rows adjacent to frequently accessed ones by issuing ACT->Precharge command combos. Timed right it only comes into play during attacks (whether intentional or by coincidence) and therefore has little additional power usage.

Also that release note was for the Mac not the iPhone. They are less likely to apply that mitigation to the iPhone precisely because it would result in increased power consumption. They could however integrate the more advanced fix in the memory controller since they control the SoC. I would expect them to brag about it if they had.
But for what scenario do you specifically need cash? Groceries, rent, utilities, etc. are usually payable by check, right? Maybe you don't have a CC but need to put gas in your car?

Copying legal documents isn't illegal, and in fact many lawyers will just run a search & replace on an existing client's T&C to generate a new T&C. This is also how T&C generator websites work.

Similar experience at Chicago O'Hare with the passport app. I was escorted past somewhere in the ballpark of 300 people in line and was left in front of a closed customs booth. About 10 seconds later an officer closed his booth, walked over to mine, asked a question or two, scanned my app QR code and waved me through with a printout to give the exit gate person. Behind me I hear a very loud, "what the F$#&? I've been a F$&&$ hour."

A sign indicating the purpose of the booth I was escorted to would have helped.
I was there that day, it was pretty amazing.
Update and FAQ on the Java SE Release Cadence
I just bought a few for testing at work. There's the HTC EVO 10 for $185[1], the Huawei Honor 6X for $200[2], and the Motoroloa Moto E4 Plus for $130(!)[3]. I also got a Samsung S6 to test, but at $250 for a much older phone, I wouldn't recommend it (but it is a fine phone, it's what I've been using personally for a few years).

I just set them up today, but I have to say, the $130 price point of the Moto E4 is pretty enticing given it seems responsive and has a fairly large screen (and if you are fine with Verizon, you can get it for $70 no contract[4]). The H6 seems like the one aimed the most to be a flagship phone. Fairly polished, and with a rear fingerprint sensor (all or almost all the rest have a fingerprint sensor, it's just on the front).

Edit: Whoops, the Verizon link and price is for the Moto E4, while what I purchased was a Moto E4 Plus, which Verizon has for $110[5]).

What are peoples longterm views on the viability of just expanding housing? The view currently seems to be that prices are so high, so if we enable x more housing units to be built, prices could come down. This might be true, but in the longrun housing prices are high because it's a desirable area to live in and they'll inextricably skyrocket back on up as those x become entrenched and now a new 2x want in.

Take Hong Kong as the extreme example of this issue. It's currently the 4th most densely populated area in the world with 7.4 million people spread around 427 square miles. But that density didn't solve anything as its economic desirability remains high and it is also one of the most expensive areas in the world. The same was true of Tokyo decades ago when Japan was the effective technological leader of the world - the main reason housing is somewhat affordable there now is because they've gone through decades of recession and decline.

Anyhow, I'm not sure if I'm missing something here because I think this issue is fairly self evident, but seems rarely discussed.
Scaleway – NVMe SSD Servers and Hot Snapshot
I find it mind boggling that we’re doing these ocean cities. In Denmark we’re doing it as well, though mostly by using old unused habourspace and not by reclaiming land. The result is really expensive real estate in locations that will be hit by climate change the hardest.

We haven’t managed to do much about climate change in the past 35 years and now we’re at a point where we need to change our society so radically in 3-5 years that it just won’t happen.

Since it won’t happen, that million dollar apartment with ocean view is sort of a scam. Because that’s really not where you want to live in 20 years. Right now the best place to buy property is in one of the few geographical locations that won’t get absolutely fucked by climate change, and reclaiming the ocean is the opposite of that.
Yoda makes code more confusing to read at a glance so I would recommend against it.

€20M is the fine that would be imposed if they determine you are negligent not what the op is saying is the revenue of their startup.

The way the sanctions appear to be define is they are 4% or €20M whichever is HIGHER. Which mean you could be potentially liable for €20 even if you only have a fee thousand dollars in revenue.

Now it is yet to be seen who if any they would impose that penalty on but I agree with op it does seem like a very real possibility getting hit with the fine could be devastating. I can see why it could have a chilling effect on startups.
For whatever reason whenever I try to use JDK9 or JDK10 applications have serious problems, like Eclipse for example. I research the problem and most say "use JDK8 instead"

You’re probably right. I’m wondering now if something smaller scale can happen in an established city but with lots of room to grow. If you need “critical mass” of talent on an area, send people there! Build things that keep educated people around.

Texas has very high per capita carbon emissions, but Oregon and Washington, which is where a lot of the complaining comes from, are pretty comparable to California.

Now, city dwellers do evidently have lower carbon emissions per capita. As you can see from the chart, New York state and Washington DC have very low carbon emissions per capita, driven by large urban populations.

https://www.iied.org/cities-produce-surprisingly-low-carbon-....

California does have a favorable climate that keeps energy use and emissions down. But so does much of the Northwest, and urbanization clearly has a lot to do with per capita emissions.

In short, if you're concerned about carbon emissions, you should probably support density everywhere, not just in California.
This link[0] also from the USDA, shows availability of red meat (pork + beef) as decreasing from >120 pounds per person in 1970 to about 100 pounds per person in 2014. The best I could gather from the spreadsheets on the link you provided was that red meat consumption has gone up in the last 4 years (2014-2017, not covered by my link), but the overall trend has been way down over the last 40 years, unless I'm grossly mistaken.

And, given that this same time frame has coincided with the obesity epidemic, it seems hard to make the case that red meat is bad for you. I think the best argument you could make is that red meat is bad for you in a small way, but something else is causing the Really Bad Stuff™. I'm open to changing my mind, but the data has to lead me there.

DMCA is trivial to comply with compared to GDPR. The two aren't even remotely comparable.

PCI is more comparable and it would take roughly speaking 16 years of negligence to rack up the MINIMUM fine for GDPR.

As people pointed out you are unlikely to actually get fined. They say only egregious violations will get fined but the risk is huge in comparison so even if there is a 0.01% chance that may be too risky for many businesses.
> The problem exists elsewhere. America tracks it better than most countries.

America is terrible at tracking anything. It doesn't even have a central marriage registry. It is literally the only country in the world where you cannot request for a certificate of impediment for marriage.

Doctor's write prescriptions for non-existent symptoms and get paid under the table by patients to do so. And filling in prescriptions doesn't require additional checks from a pharmacy.

America, like always, fights the wrong battles. Instead of fixing the system, it tries to patch it at either end. No one tries to resolve problems in America. It's no different from the abysmal education system & health care system.
I once had configured a mail server to log passwords while I was figuring out how to set it up. Then, I turned on logwatch and started using it “for real”.

I don't understand why pay-to-skip line is legal in the USA for government agencies. I don't know if I should call it a peasant-free gate or what the fuck, but there's the TSA version and the customs version and I refuse to enable their shitty long lines by giving them even more money than I already do (through taxes).

Their justification is that I'm paying for the background check or whatever, but if that's the case why don't they just offer it for free for everyone and shift budget from personnel to that? If it's truly the case that I don't need to be searched because I've been "pre-checked," doesn't it make sense to do it to everyone?

Christ I can feel my blood pressure rise whenever I think about anything about DHS or TSA
With both email and slack (and other forms of "push" messaging) you have no control over what someone sends to you when (you could of course just close them, but then you have to remember to open them).

What I'm instead thinking of is essentially a message queue that holds any messages directed at you until you want to respond to them, and then they're all pushed to you at that time. This would also allow you to naturally auto reply to everything ("this user usually checks things around noon and 5 everyday").

Who knows, it could be a bunch of human nature that needs training that no software can do. I just know that I get a lot of "got a second?"s a day and would love a place for those to sit until I decide to get to them.

>I have had to send cash to my sister a handful of times recently. Because her bank (Bank of America) stopped allowing cash deposits to any account other than your own, the most convenient and inexpensive way to do this was through Walmart, which has its own money transfer service. You can arrange the transfer through an app, then you go to an express line at a Walmart store and complete the whole transaction in under a minute.

The fact that you can't just send money from your online banking to another person absolutely baffles me.

Generally when my sister asks me to send her money, it’s understood that she needs cash and needs it now. Groceries, gas, etc. If she needs it for something that I can pay directly online with my own card, I generally do it that way, but there are some things for which having cash is either more convenient or necessary.

I have no clue what you're talking about. The app is free for everyone. It's just that nobody uses it. Nobody does homework anymore.

Edit: ah some TSA pre check special people line. I haven't been observant enough to notice when I travel. I exclusively travel during quiet times/days so it's probably just an empty line I can't tell is present. I dunno... I can't afford the luxury but I'm not exactly against it. Flying is not some public transit service. They can commercialise it all they want.

Zelle is supposed to be the magic bullet for this, but it isn’t supported by all banks (including mine). I could technically send her a wire online, but I think my bank would charge me $30 to send it and then her bank would deduct $25 or so to receive it. Compare that $55 to the $8 that Walmart charges.

I could get myself a bank account at BofA for the specific purpose of sending her money, but I just refuse to give them a dime of my money because they suck.

1. Career progress is not about more money or promotions. It's about going from where you are, to somewhere better. Sometimes the high ranking jobs means that you work 12 hours a day, 6 days a week, travel for months without your family. A good career path improves your quality of life.

2. Being nicer. I've been an angry, forceful person. It's unnatural for me, and I thought it would get more things done. It didn't help at all and made things a lot worse. I find that, statistically, being nice has far better returns. You'll probably remember the few times people take advantage of it, but in most modern, high wealth areas, it pays off very well.

Yeah, it's a valid position to want to limit the web platform's capabilities so that implementations are simpler and have fewer places where bugs can happen. The other position is that walled garden platforms (like Apple/Google app stores) could then make the web irrelevant as an app platform.

It would be nice if there were 2 "profiles" that web pages could conform to, browsers would only enable "simple content" profile by default...

And those preventative measures often utilize health care, from doctor's checkups to cancer screenings to immunizations.

I run a similiar setup for almost 1,5 years. LineageOS 14.1 with f-droid "store"; syncing contacts and calendar with davdroid over nextcloud; also switched search to duckduckgo (on desktop, too) and I really don't miss anything. Another advantage of missing Google play services on my now 5 year old phone is, that the power last two times longer than before. A google service free phone is absolutely usable in my opinion and I can recommend this to anyone who does not want to share all its data with google.
Some word to the play store problem: I've heard of so much malware and fake apps there, that I don't think the trust is less for an open source community. To install any proprietary apps, I can recommend yalp store, which uses the play store.
It's interesting to see how much apps depend on google services and the only trusted source is the google play store, which requires a google account (which I don't have). At this time any request on providing google free apps are ignored or denied with google play being the only trustable source for android. I don't think that this is true, at least not for people with some technical background.
I should add that because different locales have different collations, it's not that important that directories be order by name. It's good enough that directories be somewhat ordered, and even that they not be at all. GUIs will almost always let you sort by name and/or date, and the same goes for ls(1), so, really, it doesn't matter at all.

IMO it was a terrible mistake to normalize to NFD on create. Normalizing to NFC on create would still have been a mistake, but a lesser one.
