If you don't know about Elizabeth Warren’s book, it probably sounds like something from the Proud Boys or the Promise Keepers.

It'd be great to agree on the facts, even if people can't agree on how they feel about the facts or if anything should be done to change the facts.

I should rephrase my argument. What I really meant to highlight is you cannot have a business online that google does not approve of without great difficulty, given to be online you must use google in some extent. That is a problem and decidedly anti-competitive.

Also I don't care too much about the OP's attitude or lack of strategy, actors don't have to be paragons of virtue in order to be wronged and their situation be an example of a larger problem.

Also, finally, why do you need to dispute the basic facts, no one in their right mind thinks Google isn't a monopoly on search, I think that is more or less an established fact at this point.
Bulldozing entire blocks of cities and replacing the mixed developments that were there with towers surrounded by isolated green space was attempted in the US during the middle of the century, under the guise of being "urban renewal". These projects were broadly considered failures, creating isolated communities with the net effect of displacing many more people in the "bulldoze" phase than they could attract in the "rebuild" phase. Many of these projects ended up as low-income public housing, developed huge crime problems in their isolation, and eventually got bulldozed themselves, in turn.

There is some interesting historical reading here: https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/4ef3/28b64fdb97357674725324...

The modern twist on the concept is to focus on preservation instead of total replacement, trying to enhance the environment that attracted people to the diverse urban area in the first place rather than outright replacing it with centrally-planned alternatives. There are also large efforts to redevelop totally unused land (with projects like the Docklands in London or Hudson Yards in NYC) - but rarely in isolation, the goal is usually to incorporate the space into the rest of the city's fabric.

I completely agree with your points about cars, though - most American cities devote far too much space to them, especially storage of empty ones. We'd do well to shift our streetscape priorities to people, especially in dense mixed-use areas, which I think would be a big step towards the communal spaces you envision.
It's not "worth" $30,000; it's probably worth much less than that. The $30,000 has a much more powerful marketing function than it does intrinsic utility.

It's temporary access because you can trivially write a tool that goes through Facebook's audit logs to find out which accounts have likely been taken over using this tool, which is something Facebook would certainly do if there was evidence that people had been exploiting it at any kind of scale.

A big chunk of my last year has been in ATO detection and mitigation and I think you'd be surprised what kind of dumb stuff generates serious investigations from companies with far fewer security team resources than Facebook.

In the US, there is the concept of Accessory Dwelling Unit - essentially, you can build a small shed in your backyard with a much simpler process, including the paperwork, permit, etc.

If you are a homeowner, you can do that yourself - it means taking care of the permits, finding a construction company, etc, and putting money down, probably in the ballpark of 100-150k to do a good job.

After this, you can rent out your "apartment" / unit in your backyard. Or you can use it for your own purposes.

I would guess it's a fairly good investment, with returns of money invested in the 6-8 year range, at least in the current economic climate of the Bay area.

The "loan" part is tricky: any financial institution would want to put a "lien" on the property (essentially, you can't change ownership or sell the property until you remove the lien, which means until you have repaid the loan).

If you do this with "Rent the Backyard", or by yourself, it means your house can't be sold until you pay the loan.

It also means that potentially not all homeowners will be able to obtain a loan from a financial institution.

I examined this business model in depth in the past (while founder at fabrica.city), and decided it was not interesting. But I hope these guys prove me wrong and succeed.
Germany never got any real economic value out of its colonies. The logic that led them to go after them wasn’t fundamentally economic, it was about more nebulous things like national prestige. The Germans felt slighted by the fact that Europe’s other powers had colonies and they did not. The German foreign minister von Bülow expressed this plainly in a famous statement he made in 1897: “Wir wollen niemand in den Schatten stellen, aber wir verlangen auch unseren Platz an der Sonne.” (“We wish to throw no one into the shade, but we also want our own place in the sun.”)

Germany didn’t need battleships and colonies; she wanted them, because they were how Great Powers measured themselves in those days.

In 1914 Germany had the largest and fastest-growing economy in Europe. They produced twice as much steel as Britain; 63% of their exports were finished goods (see https://www.britannica.com/place/Germany/The-economy-1890-19...). All this prosperity came from the industrialization of continental Germany, not from their few tiny colonies. And all Wilhelm’s navy ended up accomplishing was soaking up absolutely mind-boggling amounts of money and making more enemies than even Germany could afford to fight.

It might be worth considering that there are non-punitive ways to encourage having children - universal provision of child care seems to work. Carrots tend to be more popular than sticks.
Nope, it's not the same at all. Wework is the corporation and it's leasing from the founder. McDonald's is the corporation and it leases out to franchisees.
For you, perhaps. But for me and my family, raising children in the densest urban core is a highly enjoyable experience. Imagine never being in traffic again. Having your choice of activities, parkland, and restaurants. Hundreds of friends within a single square mile. That’s what draws many of us to the city over the suburb. But to each their own.
Yea, sort of. If, when I joined, the company had said upfront that they had open offices, I wouldn't have been quite so sore about it.

It feels like I agreed to work there under one set of circumstances and then the company unilaterally changed the agreement. It qualitatively felt like a bait-and-switch, but that's not quite the right analogy, because the two companies never said that the office situation wouldn't change. I just assumed, and that's on me.

I want to change the dynamic at the next job I take. And I am curious if anyone else here has made some think like that work.
Hum, my experience varies then. The K1 visa is supposed to be used for entry, so you're not really waiting idle in the US at this point. I received my temporary worker card in less than 2 months. Yes, the GC takes a long time (you basically get the temporary one when it is time to apply for the permanent one!), but who cares? You have all the same benefits as soon as you get your temporary docs for work and travel.

There is a visa for fiancees to join their future spouses in the US. I assume that while you're getting your interview after a year, your spouse received temporary documents allowing them to travel and work.

Now, if you're talking about meeting your future spouse in the US, then yes. They would have needed a visa to be in the country in the 1st place.

I don't follow. People also need to be regulated in order to behave morally. Companies are run by people and it's entirely possible for companies to take moral stands or deliberately decide to do the right thing even when it's not the most profitable thing. It might not happen as often as we'd like, but it certainly does happen.

Yes the heavy math you took was very helpful (and I personally agree as someone who did a CS heavy math degree), however as stated above the list should really be a minimum requirement. Anything extra is superfluous.
It's interesting how an app can be used in creative ways by its users.

When I moved to a different country and knew literally no one there, I turned to the app exclusively to make friends. It worked, but my boyfriend at the time did not believe my story.

Back to my country, I used similar apps more than once to find people willing to play football with me and my friends. Unfortunately, this never worked and we had to play with uneven teams.
Housing is crazy expensive in the bay area.

Zoning is very expensive and with lots of requirements (affordable housing) that has slowed increases in supply, further pressuring prices up.

One loophole is the ADU loophole. Basically, no rich town wanted to allow smaller or cheaper housing (existing owners want to preserve things as is) despite tons of lipservice.

State came in and now you can in many cases create an additional dwelling unit (not too big, one floor etc) in your property EVEN if each additional dwelling unit is supposed to have 6,000 square fee of lot size (R-1 zoning).

6,000 square feet is crazy expensive in SF. See here: ($2M for 3K square feet of just land) https://sf.curbed.com/2019/3/25/18280993/empty-lot-glen-park...

Not as good of a revenue hill as selling all your cell phone usage data.
that may be a part of it, but I doubt it's the whole story. people don't just need a small room and a bed; they need kitchens, bathrooms, etc. these can be shared across a floor or a small building, but there's only so many strangers that can share a kitchen before it isn't useful to anyone. it's hard to imagine this being better than at least having the chance to find 3-4 people to split an apartment with.
Sometimes ugly is functional. Sometimes worse is better. Sometimes designers don't know what they're doing as they chase after some idealistic goal that's detached from reality.

Functional design is sometimes not good design. It's pragmatic.

This redesign is hot garbage. Take it out back and shoot it.
No - it's not straightforward. How the light strikes, sensor imperfections, patterns unique to each camera body even, thermal noise. It's very very hard actually. It's one thing to doctor a finished image - it's another, in a forensic level really, to doctor a RAW file. You can make one which on its own is syntactically correct but which does not show all the telltale signs of being shot in actual hardware, no patterns or imperfections etc. This is trivial.

Next level is to make it look plausible on its own, with plausible imperfections. This is a bit more involved and tedious.

The really hard part is to make it look like it came from the exact same individual purported camera body the photographer allegedly used. This is really hard.

An analogy would perhaps be taking a picture of a room:

Now, build another room that would make the same picture. Make sure everything in the room is plausible yet renders exactly the same picture as the first room. (The room is the RAW file.)

Edit:
(I'm not saying all the competitions have the time and know how to verify a RAW file.)

Japan is a decade or so "ahead" of USA in population decline, so it's worth looking at for hints about what might happen. They're starting to encourage immigration; a big change for that country.

Up until 1832 England's Industrial Revolution cities had severe under-representation in their Parliament: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reform_Act_1832. (In the USA, by comparison, the state of Massachusetts was a Calvinist theocracy until 1833: England was ahead.) So the USA's allocation of electoral power followed England's example as the industrial revolution was just emerging, not when it was mature. USA's myth of one person one vote isn't the truth: it has the same problems as early 19th century England in that respect.

An inexorable positive (unstable) feedback loop makes rich crowded cities get richer and more crowded. We hackers know this: startups locate in the Bay Area even though it's the highest of high-rent districts and makes us burn through investor money faster. Tech needs tech (Bay area). Finance needs finance (New York). Beltway bandits need beltway bandits (DC).

But this effect doesn't last forever. Detroit (cars) used to be that way: no more. Lowell, Massachusetts (textiles) used to be that way: no more.

The big cities need more housing. To make that happen they need more robust infrastructure. That means they need bigger budgets. USA's rural politicians have propagated the myth that taxation is theft for a long time now, so it's hard to pay for that infrastructure. California's starting to escape the Proposition 13 trap laid for it by Howard Jarvis 45 years ago. It's possible other jurisdictions can escape too.

More housing closer to work, and better infrastructure, can only lead to less hectic lives for city-dwellers. That will lead to more sex and more kiddos. But, by the time that happens, it's possible that software work will have moved to less crowded places and something other industry will dominate.

Have you tried being a kid or raising a kid in the city? This description does not match my experience or my general impressions of other people’s experiences at all.

Indeed, car-intermediated everything and complete dependence on parents is a much better description of suburban life for children than city life. I grew up in one of the most pleasant and active suburbs in the US, in a little college town, and it was still incredibly child-hostile. The city is IMO much friendlier to children.

In the city people can and do walk all over, with longer trips made by transit. There are more small shops of all kinds, more coffeeshops, more live music, more social clubs, more classes, more playgrounds, more museums, and in general more regular human contact of all kinds. Kids can be independent at a younger age, and can pursue a wider range of interests with community infrastructure and support.

> you have small children, this changes. Intellectual pursuits? They can't read yet, so your only option is parking them in front of videos.

I have one 3-year-old kid and one 5-month-old kid in San Francisco. Neither of them watches significant amounts of videos (occasionally we watch kids’ movies or old Mr. Rogers episodes together). The other kids we meet at the playground don’t seem to do excessive amounts of video watching.

Kids absolutely can do “intellectual pursuits”, but at their own level. First and foremost they play with all manner of physical objects – blocks, other construction toys, folded paper, empty cardboard boxes and yogurt containers, balls, sand, clay, water, their own bodies, ... Then kids love having stories told to them or books read to them. They love singing, using random household objects as percussion instruments, playing rhyming games, recognizing and naming objects, learning new words, counting random stuff, drawing with chalk and crayons, .... They love helping with household chores (not the most helpful at first, but they try), watching people do physical work of all kinds, play-acting all sorts of grown-up activities, ...

By far the biggest problem for small kids here in SF is the high cost of housing and childcare and the distance from grandparents. Many families we know have moved away to find places with cheaper housing (e.g. they were previously living in a rent-controlled 1 bedroom apartment and decided they wanted a 2-bedroom place, but couldn’t afford to pay current market rent for it) or more help with childcare.

> One false move and some yahoo in a steel contraption has killed them.

It would be great to ban cars from more streets, and get the remaining cars down to 15–20 miles/hour. This is not really a city problem per se; our whole society is built around cars, and suburbs are generally worse than cities at putting pedestrians in harm’s way.
It seems to me technology goes in cycles, and while cloud has had a meteoric rise to dominance, if the pendulum swings back to self-hosted - IBM is now poised to own a substantial part of big enterprise data center technology.
I do think at $34B it's a huge gamble, but as the author said, what other choice did they have? They aren't exactly centers of innovation any more (either of them.. and yes, some innovation comes out of redhat, but lets be honest, it's been tapering off for years now).
If that cap didn't spreading the heat as well, what you'd be seeing on the thermal camera would be something that glows around 60C-70C (because clearly, the camera's software can more or less resolve the room temperature reflection from 60C thermal radiation), and the color would be more or less uniform in the region above the CPU. There wouldn't be such a strong observed temperature gradient.

Which is the evidence you're looking for.
A similar misperception is common for PDFs.
I’m raising a child in NYC right now. What is this dystopia you are describing? It’s the opposite of my personal experience. NYC is such a kid friendly place to raise kids: Museums, zoos, aquariums, free events for kids, concerts just for babies, parks, swimming pools, little league, soccer league, skate parks, etc… we have it all. I can’t fathom how people raise kids in the suburbs. They must be so bored…

You have a very narrow definition of the infrastructure required to raise kids. People have been raising families in cities long before suburbs were invented.

Earth: Dig a hole in Australia/China and process it to get rare-earth metals.

Hard to see how the Moon version could ever be price competitive. Even if you could pick up rocks of pure rare-earths I do not think it would be cheaper. Still, makes for an easy headline for a NASA chief I suppose.
