Why would slumlords choose to be slumlords, if they had the choice to own high end luxury units, where the tenants were generally more on-time with their payments and they turned a bigger profit?

I'm a restless sleeper. I tend to turn around a lot, and move the covers. Would I be right in thinking this may make me as risky (or more) as a smoker or a drinker?

I'm assuming the risk is that those groups are more likely to toss and turn.
The answer for software companies in particular seems obvious to me: remote work. I think that for the kind of work we do, in-person communication and synchronous collaboration are over-rated. I hope that the next generation of programmers will all have the freedom to stay in their home towns rather than having to congregate in a few cities, thus driving up costs. I know that this change requires a major culture shift, though.
The biggest problem I saw in Evicted were slum lords renting out homes that are legally unfit to live in because they were preying on the desperate...

There was a story later in the book about a slum lord's property that burned down because she cheaped out on fire detectors. Her tenant lost her baby but the slum lord walked away with even more money from insurance to buy 3 more properties.

The same slum lord took advantage of government housing incentives too by renting her dilapidated apartments at artificially higher rents to those lucky enough to be in a government program. Not to even mention how most of the tenants that are evicted can't even afford to literally get to the court house for the hearing.
Yes, I agree. I was lucky enough to study where the current convenor of the Prolog ISO working group teaches, using a Prolog- and Elisp-based teleteaching environment that he has built over several decades.

As in other disciplines, if you are elsewhere, you may have to move to get close to a master. This is not so unusual, is it? Vienna is a nice city for studying logic, and does attract students from all over the world!
You are claiming that is a one year old issue in the grpc-go project.

But we are not seeing any change in that code (https://github.com/grpc/grpc-go/blob/master/server.go#L228) in the following releases. And I tried to look for an issue mentionning MaxMsgSize and found nothing. https://github.com/grpc/grpc-go/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=MaxM...

The fix that would restore the compatibility you claim seems obvious:

func MaxMsgSize(m int) ServerOption {
return func(o *options) {
o.maxSendMessageSize = m
o.maxReceiveMessageSize = m
}
}

This fix could have been applied in a minor release to restore compatibility without breaking the API.

So if this is an issue, why is this not reported?
My understanding is that the risk is that they're more insensate to the world while asleep, and may not notice that they've rolled onto their child.
For 200000 years (or at least 10000 since the agrarian revolution) humans had to accept 1 out of 5 children would die before age 5.

There is real risk here, and while we can deal with it in a smarter manner (the New Zealand example with the Moses baskets and identifying high risk babies for example), in bed sleeping significantly increases the mortality risk, even for low risk groups. The info graphic indicates the risk of in bed sleeping from 1/46000 to 1/16000. At 4M live births per year, that’s a difference of roughly 89 children dying versus 250 children dying. What’s more, those numbers are cited for SIDS, it’s not clear where a death where the cause is known (like rolling over and suffocating the baby) would count as in these studies.

In short, I’m unconvinced we should be encouraging in bed cosleeping
Always be looking for leads.
> (Someone who just pulled 2 all-nighters in a row should also probably not co-sleep with an infant.)

Which is a cruel irony, given some infants' sleep habits - or lack thereof.

My parents number among those. I wouldn't sleep - at all - if I wasn't being rocked. So they'd take turns; half the night mom would rock me, half the night dad would rock me.

The constant skin to skin contact between baby and mom from cosleeping and breastfeeding is believed by some psychologists to contribute to baby's healthy psychological development. Humans are highly social animals. I'm amazed and sad it's common practice to isolate babies for such a large portion of the day.

We coslept with our first and are now doing it with our 2nd who is still a newborn. We're 3 weeks in and are already close to getting enough sleep each night.

Your seat belt analogy is invalid. Driving past a certain speed is always life threatening. Even if you driving on a non-life threatening speed, you share the road with other people that might be, worse, these people might be drunk even though your sober. Wearing a seat belt is a low cost highly effective way to reduce the risk of dying while in traffic. The reduction is significant.

Usually parents share beds with their infants in a low risk and controlled environment. If the parents get drunk one night, it is easy for them to postpone the practice that particular night. Always putting the baby to the crypt is a high cost low yield way of reducing the risk of SIDS. The risk reduction is puny.

A more apt analogy would be if you always drive on your own private road no faster then 15 km/h, except once a week where you drive 120 km/h on the motorway. Your car has a 5 point seat belt and is a pain to put on. A sensible person, and a sensible advice is to put the seat belt on that one time a week when you drive on the motorway.
In our platform (Openland, W18) we have identified a LOT of buildings that can be built up in SF and current laws allows this. This is not high rises, but you can upgrade from 1 story to 3-4 stories easily. But why this buildings are still single story?

I suppose there are other problems like lengthy process of permitting (basically at least 1 year for issuing building permit) and entitlement (unpredictable). This huge delays reduces margins of a projects and in some cases they became unprofitable.

Some googling and apparently you can buy e-ink display modules for relatively cheap [1]. Does anyone have any thoughts on whether you can hook this up to a keyboard, whether that's practical, and what that might be like?

I don't understand the argument here. Obviously you need some sort of amplification process to avoid noise. But there are amplifying processes that don't follow the "discrete" Shannon model. Like, I'm pretty sure neurons themselves are an example -- they maintain a stable voltage (even with noise) until they depolarize and spike. The process of depolarization is fundamentally analog, integrating together all the synaptic inputs (and anything else that affects the voltage in the cell). It can't be modeled using a sequence of discrete symbols, but it's also stable over time in the presence of noise.
I would say they are complementary. Kubernetes is a standard solution for packaging and deploying apps. If you run a lot of apps, you want your ops team to be able to manage them without knowing all the details. You get better utilization of your servers by allowing them to deploy standard units and manage resources at a higher level.

You can put an Erlang/Elixir app into a container and deploy it, but containerization doesn't provide as much value as it may for other languages. The Erlang VM doesn't depend much on the operating system. The mix build tool tightly manages runtime library dependencies, and building a release combines the VM and the app's libraries into a single tarball that you can deploy as a unit. So we don't find it particularly useful to use Docker/Kubernetes to deploy.

Erlang/Elixir makes it very easy to take advantage of all the CPU cores available, so you generally benefit from having one instance with lots of CPUs instead of lot of little instances. And it can be a lot cheaper to do this in a dedicated server environment instead of the cloud.

So on the whole, Kubernetes is not that big a win for Erlang, but they work fine together.
That was one vehicle. The first test was fine. Subsequent tests were not. It's pretty clearly a flaw in the brakes of that particular vehicle. If CR wants to generalize from that fine, but it's not doing a service to its readers.
Depends on the OS. Where it's setgid, it changes gid back to the user running it, so you wouldn't see it in ps anyway.
I did some benchmarks of AWS vs GCP storage [0] (NOT including local storage), and the short version is that Google's slow storage is slower than AWS's, and Google's fast storage is faster than AWS's. And I tested NVMe, but on vSphere, and it was very, very fast.

While there are some mechanical failure caused crashes, aren’t the vast majority of car crashes/incidents caused by driver error?

Either drunk, speeding, not paying attention, deliberately being a bellend, etc?

If anything that just means the licensing process should be stricter - not specifically a change in the cars themselves.

With self-driving cars the car is the driver so of course it has to be more strictly controlled - it has to make decisions.
Another cosleeper here. Besides the benefit to the child, it was also amazing to get a full night’s sleep. When the baby was hungry my wife just had to roll over and help it latch on, then go right back to sleep while feeding. That might not be “sleeping through the night”, technically, but it was just as good from our perspective.
May be the solution is simplifying building instead of dealing with existing one?

Even in SF there are a lot of land for housing! For example, there are hundreds of body repair/tyre shops in SF. Why city ever need them in the city where Uber wins over owning your own car? But you can't just buy them and build more housing - in most cases you need to wait several years to "clean up" the soil.
Ok so, bottom line, some software bugs, some cosmetic issues, some "we're not used to doing it like that" situations and a fabulous piece of driving engineering. Edmunds don't seem to have their automotive priorities in the right order here.

> Over the past few decades, the U.K. has also seen a large drop in SIDS. Since 2003, total SIDS deaths has fallen by 40 percent, from about 350 deaths per year to about 200 deaths per year, the nonprofit Lullaby Trust reports. At the same time, the SIDS rate in U.S. has nearly plateaued at about 90 deaths per 100,000, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports.

If this paragraph is accurate, why is the incidence around 200 times lower in the UK?

The issue is that non-commercial aircraft are being held to the same standard as a 777, not that the 777 is held to an extremely high standard. There's nothing safe about a Cessna 172, period, and it's far too expensive for them to redesign it. So it's going to continue to be a 60 year old plane with updated avionics.
A similar thing has happened in New Zealand.

The Tenancy Tribunal exists to mediate disputes between the landlord and tenants, both the landlord and the tenant can bring cases. For example, landlords can use it to get tenants to pay for damage caused, and tenants can use it to get the landlord to fix something they are legally obliged to fix. The tribunal is non-biased, and the decisions they make tend to be fair.

The problem though is that all tenancy tribunal case are public. With the names of the tenants and landlords published, as well as the case and the outcome.

A lot of rental applications ask if you have ever been to the tenancy tribunal, and a lot of real estate agents will search the tribunal records (which go back 5 years) when you apply for a rental. It doesn't matter if you were in the right or wrong, or if you won or lost. Landlords are reluctant to rent to anybody that has been to the tribunal, as they are considered troublemakers.

Because of this, tenants are scared to go to the tribunal, even for justified cases, where they are in the right and would win. The opposite doesn't occur for landlords because there is more demand than supply for tenants, and also tenants often don't know that they can search the tribunal records.
Does anyone follow the mental model way of thinking? I am curious how do people apply so many models in their daily life. It is possible to add couple of models like Hanlon's razor etc but 100+ seems too many.

I agree that it is better, I guess I'm just surprised that the unit economics work.

There's a lot of different approaches to raising children. That's ok and people should feel good making their own choices. Chances are, it will turn out fine.

The only way to have an objective, public conversation about infant sleeping is: what solution presents the least risk to the infants' lives in aggregate?

Straying from that approach should be a decision taken only once the parents are fully informed about the risk to the life of the infant.

“Conservative” (i.e. pro-corporate) justices have had a majority on the US supreme court for four and half decades now. There are now decades of precedent firmly on the side of corporate executives vs. customers, employees, or the general public.

More generally, corporations have coopted or subverted most other institutions in the society, including the DOJ and the legislature. (Hooray for unlimited anonymous campaign finance.)
Execs don’t go for it. That’s the primary reason it’s not been done at large scale companies - you do get better control and coordination in person, but not so much better that it outweighs the economics (IMO)

Actually, it kinda is. To have property rights means to have the right to use it. That means the right to sell it (and, correspondingly, to buy property so you can enjoy owning it). It means the right to loan it. It means the right to rent it.

The same goes for your own time and labor. You can't be a free person (as opposed to a slave) if you can't own your own time and labor -- if you can't sell your labor.

As with much else, the state gets to impose taxes and regulations. No argument there. But if those taxes or regulations prevent you from enjoying your ownership of property or self, then they are confiscatory and make you un-free. At the very least unreasonable tax/regulatory burdens make for a dysfunctional / distorted market, though as long as you can freely vote with your feet you're not so un-free as to be a slave. Still, just because you can move to some freer locality doesn't mean it's a good thing that the locality your leaving has high tax/regulatory burdens.

> That was one vehicle.

From the Consumer Reports article[1]:

Because we saw some inconsistency in the braking performance, we got a second Model 3 (a privately owned vehicle that was loaned to CR) to verify our results. CR has tested second samples in previous situations to double-check our findings.

...

CR’s experience with the Model 3’s braking is not unique. Car and Driver, in its published test of a Model 3, said it noticed “a bizarre amount of variation” in its test, including one stop from 70 mph that took “an interminable 196 feet.”

“I’ve been testing cars for 11 years,” Car and Driver Testing Director K.C. Colwell said in an interview with CR, “and in 11 years, no car has stood out with inconsistent braking like this. Some trucks have. . . . It was just weird.”

We have a 2 year old and 6 month old twins. Been co-sleeping since our oldest was 3 or 4 months old. We tried doing the separate room thing with the twins and it was just a nightmare of sleepless nights. Moved them into our bed after Christmas and things got much better. So much easier to just roll over half-awake to calm a baby down.

Also ditto on the oddness of wanting to isolate babies in a different room when everyone is sleeping. One of the things I look forward to most is getting to sleep next to my kids every night, even if I'm busy during the day and don't get to spend as much time with them as I'd like to.
It certainly seems like a scientific approach to parenting gone a bit too far.
