That’s a good question I don’t actually know the answer to, but you’re right that I should have considered it.

I think it’s worth investigating later, but for now I’m inclined to say it is probably a little of column A and a little of column B.

If I hadn’t personally observed apartments renovated to remove features try and pass it off as a 1 bedroom prior to the pandemic, I might have considered that angle initially, but for now it is still coloring my view of what I saw in September. I think this is becoming more of a norm, and they were the norm as far as what was available at the time, but this could also have been that units with kitchens were getting filled faster at the same time I was making my observations.

What infuriated me personally wasn’t that there were so many, but that the asking prices were about the same as the asking price for an equivalent unit with a full kitchen. It’s a seller’s market, that’s what I’ve been more or less communicating all up and down the thread, but damned if that doesn’t peeve me.
Seriously?

There are two types of people in SF:

* People who have watched their property appreciate in value by 4-10x for basically doing... nothing.

* People who have taken out an eye watering loan for well over a million dollars and are kept up at night by the idea that theyll owe a million dollar loan on a $750,000 home.

Of course they're going to be conservative! Of course they're going to try to avoid anybody rocking the boat! Of course they'll be NIMBYs!

Why on earth would you think that the one thing that keeps them ludicrously wealthy - property rights - is the thing that they'd stop believing in??

It makes zero sense.

It is normal for animals who don't think the same way that we do. They don't understand the concepts of "killing" or "life" and don't value life in the same manner as humans.

It's always struck me as odd when unethical treatment of animals is justified by saying "animals eat/kill/hurt other animals too!". We're different from animals. Our standards should be higher.

> haskell is a language for experts.

Expert in what? Programming? Lambda calculus? Category theory? Let’s not pretend that you are simply an expert in something randomly, it takes a lot of practice, mistakes, and actually being a beginner before being an expert. Even if you are an expert in the above you still are a beginner when learning Haskell the first time, and you will make mistakes, so having beginner friendly resources is important.

Quite frankly, it’s this kind of gatekeeping attitude - that Haskell is meant for “us” and to become one of us, you have to be an expert, and we aren’t going to coddle you - is a kind of attitude that significantly contributes to the lack of good and welcoming beginner resources and causes very few people to actually pick up and stick with the language. You can be a “language for experts” and still have good, beginner friendly learning resources to welcome more into some community.
Now you're not even trying to engage in the logic of the conversation. I hoped for better in this forum.
Yes, but putting the minis in a case in a rack is wasteful. Both in terms of raw materials used, and energy efficiency. Considering how much of a deal Apple makes out of saving a few power bricks from the landfill, manufacturing thousands of enclosures which end up in server racks wasting power seems out of place.
Yes but there’s a minimum rent period of 24h, which means you’ll lose the benefits of a cloud provider over an on-premise OSX “build box”.

Unix Principles to Write Better Code
Downloading isn't copyright infringement, uploading is, because you are sharing something without the authorization of the copyright holder. Torrent sites frequently track uploads and kick users off that don't upload, so it would be tricky for their Terms of Service to make an exception that works for their network and also tries to ensnare these honeypots.

And regarding downloading or acquiring or even purchasing: it has never been up to the consumer to know who has the authorization (license) to distribute a work. We just assume Walmart/Target/Netflix/Amazon etc has the rights to sell us whatever we consume. It isn't our problem.

DHH – Building Hey with Hotwire
Children are often placed in a caretaker position over dogs--they sometimes help feed it, take it out to the bathroom or on walks. They don't spend much mental energy thinking about the needs of adults, the adults tend to do that for themselves, often out of sight of the child.

It's not surprising that the child would lean towards protecting the animals that they see as under their care, or needing more care than adults.

The question is inane, anybody who doesn't earnestly value the life of a human more than the life of a dog is morally bankrupt. And frankly, I think most who claim otherwise earnestly do not feel that way when put on the spot. Given the choice of dying young or receiving a porcine heart valve transplant, I am quite sure what damn near everybody except a handful of nutjobs would chose.
Maybe. Perhaps some killing is ethical. PETA (people for the ethical treatment of animals) has shelters and I hear they have very high kill rates, like >95%.

I don’t know if you can do that. This is assuming an inflationary effect alone. But when there is too much cash around, when you have lots of buyers chasing a small number of assets, the price of these assets can increase in a completely irrational way.
Tldr, they live on expensive hardware that is well marketed and has polished software attractive to consumers.
also, book value, though it's usually much smaller than market cap. if a stock ever fell below its book value you could buy it out and liquidate its assets to make money, so the book value should be a price floor for the stock.

It is normal because for a very long time we didn't have a choice. I won't argue with the ethical aspects of killing animals but from a climate standpoint it makes sense to kill and eat a lot less animals.

I chose not to eat any animal products because I feel I don't need to eat animals to live and because the alternative is better for the world in general. The alternatives seem to either not live up to the claims or not be sustainable except at a small scale.
I don't have a citation for you, but it sure seems that something requires new construction apartments in SF to devote half of their square footage to wheelchair accessible bathrooms... I'd guess every apartment I lived in in SF would be illegal to construct today due to things like clearances.
>With that in mind, giving literally 100% of San Francisco's budget to building public housing could produce 12,000 units. That would mean shutting down Zuckerberg General Hospital, street cleaning, street repaving, SFO, schools, and anything else SF does.

You are skipping over the part where the government can change the relevant laws that make public housing expensive. Public housing also doesn't have to be built by the government directly so if private construction firms can do it cheaper the government can let them build the housing.

The average real hourly wage is higher today than any time since 68 (which was the peak) and is about a dollar higher than the 90s.

i think this speaks far more to the way you value the life of people over animals. for me and my dog it's very different. if i had to choose between killing my dog and letting a stranger die, i wouldn't be able to kill my dog. if i had to choose between him and my partner, he's gonna have to die.

i also don't feel like human life has some intrinsic value. my dog brings a lot of love and happiness to my life. i've known a lot of people who bring pain and suffering to others. why value a person that may or may not bring happiness to the world over something that does bring happiness?

i think the idea that there is a binary solution to all problems is a poor world view, but 'black and white'[0] thinking is a tell tell sign of abuse and considered a standard trauma response.

That brings up an interesting perspecitve. How would answers to this question break down by urban vs rural demgraphics.

I think you make a lot of good points here, but I think a little more weight needs to be placed on the "big paychecks" part. When my wife and I bought a house here (in SF) a couple of years ago, we had to make offers on nearly 20 homes over the course of 18 months before we had an offer accepted, and we were coming in with an all cash offer at or above asking price every time. The problem we ran into was that there were usually ~7 offers ahead of us (also all cash obviously, but even higher over asking). The income disparity is so extreme these days, and I hesitate to say "income" because these are not senior engineers at FAANG that we were bidding against, these were people who likely earn 10s of millions a year and/or come from extreme family wealth. The wealth gap really is staggering.
It's also per-instance, so if you use one to run a build or automated test suite and tear it down afterwards, it costs you 24 hours each time. Some simple napkin math: if you average running two builds/test runs per day, not including weekends, you'll pay somewhere over $12k/yr. Crazy.

We test some cross-platform software with an installer, and there's automated tests for every Windows version since 7, dozens of various Linux distros/versions (including x86 and ARM), but we never got around to automating Mac largely because of the complexity with getting back to a "clean" environment (eg: what you get with a fresh EC2 image). Having relatively few users compared to all other platforms plus the cost being a couple of orders of magnitude higher, I doubt we'll take advantage of this. Too bad.
Google Chrome has changed its autoplay policy in the past few years [0] -- sites now require typically user interaction before they're allowed to start the audio context.

Agreed, and it’s also conflating engineering cost with the cost of making games. The big benefit of using physically based rendering architectures isn’t saving engineering time, it’s saving artist time not having to fiddle with tuning each ad-hoc effect individually. It seems to also somewhat discount the increases in realism and fidelity we are getting in the same dev time as before.

Ask HN: Do You Use RSVP (Rapid Serial Visual Presentation) software for reading?

I think it's basically a blackmail scheme. Yeah you have a case if they sued you, but you'd be embarrassed by the public accusation of downloading porn so you settle. Or failing that, it's still just extortion by suing people frivolously, which again, people would settle to get out of.
Pointing out specific, xenophobic viewpoints doesn't mean dismissing everybody as xenophobic. If they have legitimate density complaints, please bring them. But I will also point out that these density complaints are even more xenophobic in origin. Density restrictions and zoning in San were invented a century ago to push the Chinese populations out of their neighborhoods.

And for me, this isn't about more or less restrictions. This is about meeting the needs of the people of a city. Not just the wealthy, not just keeping buildings the same, not just the people that have lived there the longest. The needs of the entire people. Which includes people that don't yet live in the city but need access to the economic resources.

So I definitely think that there should be density restrictions, but rather than maximums there should be density minimus. It should be illegal to build a single unit on a 5000 square foot lot anywhere in San Francisco. When somebody tears down a tiny Victorian, they had better replace it with many homes rather than just one. And if somebody remodels those exclusionary Pacific Heights homes, they better be adding more units, IMHO.
Or perhaps they do away with moral reasoning and are just in direct touch with their nature as shepherds of cognitively lesser beings ? I'm just thinking out loud, my point being maybe they actually know something we don't and not the other way around ( where one doesn't exclude the other ).

> Because it gets old listening to the same tired uninformed troupes[sic] from some random person on the internet that is just regurgitating misinformation.

Not to be harsh, but your frustrations are yours alone. Nobody else is terribly motivated by your pet peeves, and when you snap at people with "stop it" their response is going to be less "they must be tired of something" and more "what an unreasonable <bleep>".

> For people that actually live in San Francisco this is a real issue that affects our daily lives.

Living in a city does not give you exclusive right to discuss its issues, nor does it give you a monopoly on information about that city.

And by your own theory, you shouldn't be talking about Vancouver, since apparently you do not live there.

> Having some random person spreading more incorrect info is insulting

"You're wrong and shut up" (paraphrased) doesn't stop people from repeating what you perceive to be misinformation. All it does is convince them that you're an unreasonable person to interact with. If you want to actually stop the "misinformation", provide arguments. Because I guarantee you that nobody here will respect your preposterous order to "stop it".

> and actually potentially harmful to the people that actually live here and have to pay those rents like I do.

I know that there's an increasing trend towards viewing speech as violence, but this is ridiculous. My opinion on rents in SF is not harming you, least of all because I have literally no power to affect policy in a city over 500 miles away from me.

And even if you still persist in believing that we're somehow hurting you by talking about your city, then a dismissive attempt to shut down the conversation is doing you no favors, because you haven't convinced anyone here that they're wrong. They'll just keep repeating what they believe after they've finished downvoting your complaints into oblivion.

HN's policy of automated title mangling strikes again - the original title is "How AWS Added Apple Mac Mini Nodes to EC2." That is, this article isn't a discussion of the mere fact that it was added (we discussed that a few weeks ago), but it has pictures of rackmounted Mac Minis with their custom hardware.

As of this writing, only 1-2 of the comment threads are related to the actual subject of the article (why Apple doesn't produce a rackmount form-factor machine, why you can't virtualize macOS on commodity x86 hardware) and the rest are just about the fact of Macs on EC2 (why Apple doesn't run their own cloud, whether the pricing is cost-effective, etc.).
I'm not sure what level of permissions is available with "sign in with google". In my experience, that is handleded within the SaaS. Here's what's happened (at least in the companies I've worked in, which tend to be a bit smaller).

1. New employee hired
2. They get a gsuite account. This gives them access to google drive, gmail, gcal, etc. (This is the provisioning I think you are referring to.)
3. They can now login to asana, zapier, <other saas tool> with their gsuite account, using "login with google"
4. Their permissions within these saas tools are managed by the admins in those tools (not from gsuite).
5. When an employee departs, you disable their gsuite account. Then they can't log in to any of the SaaS tools, since their google account is disabled.

If you want a user to have centralized RBAC or ABAC, you need to use a real IdP, not gsuite in the way I outline above.

If you are using SAML for gsuite, you can use SCIM, I believe, to provision, but that's a different flow than I have outlined above. https://support.google.com/a/topic/6400789 has more on that.
Many animals do understand killing and death. Elephants are a prime example of this.
