I see what you're saying, that densification and building up vertically means each unit represents a smaller proportion of the footprint of the building. This in turn means that the ground under the building becomes progressively more valuable as the average density of construction increases. This can happen either by permitting smaller units or by building taller, or both.

This feels transient to an extent no? At some point your building is tall enough and your unit as small as people are willing to accept.

But does this not apply primarily to the land underneath the building? Once you reach a certain plateau a 700sqft apartment on the 10th floor of a 50 story building isn't worth any more than an apartment on the 10th floor of a 70 story building is it?

Route53 seem to have some weird gaps. For instance .nz (New Zealand) originally only allowed people to register 3rd level domains ( like company.co.nz or network.net.nz ).

This changed in 2015 and you can now register 2lds like company.nz or network.nz but AWS still hasn't updated their system. It means my employer has to have a 2nd registrar just for those domains. Nagging our TAM and asking other companies to do the same has had no effect.

Note that AWS use Ghandi.net for .nz registration (and many/most other TLS) and Ghandi do support .nz 2lds

> Educators need quizzes and other assessment measures. That way, I can know how my class is doing. My students can understand where their performance falls short. And their parents want to know how the class is going along the way.

Cheating on exams is only a problem for that last one, the parents seeking to know how their children are performing. If the educator isn't providing credentials, it's not a problem if someone cheats. They'll get less education, but that's their problem, not the educator's.
> The rich have polluted the planet

Rich people aren't tipping over trashcans or shitting on my sidewalk.

> raised the global temperature up a whole degree

This doesn't actually affect you, you've just been brainwashed into thinking it's the most important thing ever. Emissions are going down in all of the most highly developed countries. As technology improves, this will improve as well. You're complaining about progress that has lifted billions of people out of squalor to having powerful computers in their pockets and being able to transport goods across the globe.

> The damage is that now I can’t go outside in late summer, if it doesn’t rain the week before, because the air is poisoned by soot from forest fires.

Maybe they should do some forest management with the billions in taxes they take every year, instead of giving it to street-shitting, drugged-out hobos.

> The rich are the reason I couldn’t afford a place to rent in San Francisco, their speculative housing investment and gentrification raised the marked rate so much that a working class person from one of the richest country in the world couldn’t afford to live there.

When demand goes up, and supply doesn't, the price goes up. This isn't rich people's fault, it's basic supply and demand.

> The rich are the reason—unless you are one of them—that you are not making significantly more money from your current job, they consistently take away from your contribution to the wealth you generate in your current job without contributing anything of value.

They provide you with a job. You are free to start your own business. Rich people can't stop you.

No one owes you anything.

I read in a book about China by New Yorker magazines China expert [1] and he said that up to a third of Chinese citizens are either party members, part of youth groups, or work directly for a CCP owned company.

So it’s not everyone but it’s a lot. The actual CCP membership itself is much lower though. It’s more like an octopus in their society.

Actually, in some places you have to pay a premium for your insurance/social security if you don't visit the dentist at least twice a year.

These control visits qualify as non-acute, and they greatly reduce the amount of acute dental issues you might have.

Fresh grads at Google get about 5k SGD (~ 3.7k USD) a month plus equity. That's lower than FAANG in the US.

With any kind of experience, salaries quickly ramp up. For example, I know an unremarkable Facebook E6 with 550k SGD (~ 408k USD) total yearly comp. You can also work in the tech department of finance companies, like Goldman Sachs or some funds.

Interesting. I've been programming in python for more than 4 years and I'd like to try something different.

I took a haskell class back in the day but just the basics, didn't even learn monads.

My goal is not to master the language itself but learn enough to make a better programner.

One thing that has been holding me back is the lack of real world examples. I get demotivated when only solving toy problems.

That only works if the identifier name is unique across your files. What if you have a field on class "Zoo" named "containers" and you want to replace it with "animal_containers", but only for the "Zoo" class? There are probably other usages of "containers" in the code, with no easy way for something like sed to distinguish between "zoo_instance.containers" and "car_instance.containers".

You need an editor that can understand "this usage of 'containers' refers only to class 'Zoo', so I should find all variables of type 'Zoo' which reference the 'containers' field and change those."

No I didnt get tested, first of all historically you do not get PCR testing for the coof unless you die, thats a trend beginning with covid. Also because it wasn't even on the radar unless you were one of those types of persons who hung out on 4chans /pol/ where they had daily threads about the virus since december at least.

My point is that governments do NOT want to address the ARDS concerns because it will mean millions of citizens will have to get early pensions, which will be a massive strain on welfare states. They'd rather not address this at all. My other point is that we have reached a point where PCR testing is utterly meaningless, it SOLELY benefits big pharma.

It makes no sense to keep on doing PCR testing, we should have done like china when shtf there and started doing symptom diagnostics instead since its way cheaper.

Also, if you need a respirator to breathe, you need it COVID or not. If you are sick, it doesn't really matter if its SARS-2, covid-20 or the flu. Stay home!

> High land appreciation taxes are essentially indistinguishable from Georgist LVT

A capital gains tax is not “essentially indistinguishable” from a land value tax if rents rise and the owner never sells the property. The owner gets to collect increased rents for as long as his family owns it, and even his heirs don’t have to pay the tax on transfer (since capital gains are untaxed on inheritance in America due to the step-up basis and apparently also for the Chinese Land Appreciation Tax). Kevin Erdmann has written a good series of articles on focusing on the rental value of land rather than only sales prices:

>> Patanjali has given one process of how to still the mind which has a break through point of pratyahara - non-attachment. When we perceive we unsettle the potential energy of the perceived object and that resonates in our senses to trigger thinking.

> Perceive - to become aware of, know, or identify by means of the sense.

> When something stimulates us the energy of the stimulus starts us thinking about the stimulus.

>> When we think we get attached.

> This causes us to make a conclusion – hey something is stimulating us

>> If we learn not to perceive by setting aside the thinking process the mind is made non-attached and our core is still.

> If we learn not to be stimulated by the senses by not thinking about what is stimulating us, the mind does not make a conclusion – hey something is stimulating us.

> How do you set aside the thinking process?

>> The objects of the world have life within and life spells movements.

> Things in the world are made up of life that moves

>> By not attaching to it we achieve stillness which works on the primary cause.

> By not making conclusions, the mind in not active.

>> Please dwell on this point of view.

I'm wondering how families or even just couples cope with relocating for a short while.

- What do you do with your belongings? Do you move them around?

- Does someone takes care about your home while you are away?

- What about pets?

- What do you solve administrative tasks, e.g. you receive an official letter from govn't that you supposed to reply within a timeframe? How do you get to know the content of the letter?

- What about your health insurance? Premiums that I encountered have a obscure logic on what is the procedure when you live at certain places for a longer period.

- How do you handle taxes?

At the time that Google entered the market, there were at least 16 other search engines in existence [1] and all Google did was search. They had the smallest front page of any of the search engines at the time. It was very refreshing, and Page Rank turned out to be incredible at returning results but the "making money" thing was still very unclear at the time.

I seem to recall they wanted to sell out to Yahoo for $10 million (1999? 2000?), but apparently, that was too much for Yahoo's liking.

[1] I only know this because I still have the bookmarks from the time on my machine. Back in 1996, I wrote a metasearch engine that queried 16 other search engines (http://www.conman.org/people/spc/refs/search/search.hp1.html).
I use scp over sftp because sftp requires setting up an additional sftp server. I just want to copy files, given that I have ssh access.

As for rsync, I always thought it was used for backup and something that would run in the background, not routine single file/directory copying.

I left my last job in a senior position. In my current job I do something a bit different and I am technically a junior.

Since I was in both positions my advice or request to seniors would be to try to take your time to explain things to your junior colleagues. From personal experience this pays off in the long run and reduces dumb questions you receive later on. Some seniors just respond with "rtfm" or "Yeah I got to figure that myself too, won't hurt if you try that too..." to every single question. The fact that someone is younger or less experienced in some area does not mean they have to be treated like piece a of s* *t.

You have to realize that new person is not asking only to get technical knowledge but to also crate connection and relationships. Sure, one can be busy not have time to babysit fresh members, but in that case you can just say it.

It's also very common that different companies use the same technologies very differently so explaining how you use it is of big help to newbies. I thought that after 4 years I will quite well versed in some technologies, only to learn that the way they were used in my old job was quite obscure. So sometimes senior needs to help new colleagues to re-learn things in the right way. That can also be difficult.

Extra tip for juniors: Some people are good in explaining things some are not. Some very sharp technical minds might not be very good in interpersonal areas. So don't feel bad if you look stupid or someone is a bit nasty. It does not have to be personal. And if you think it is, find someone else you trust you can talk to and ask for their opinion or help.
