I'm very much mechanical keyboard enthusiast-adjacent.

I've used a kinesis advantage for years (highly recommend; get your employer to pay for it), and have pretty much never dabbled in other keyboards

My wife has a mechanical keyboard (with arrows/nav, no numpad) but generally prefers the Microsoft ergo offering (non mechanical) for its... ergonomics

I recently bought a friend's group buy [1], and I'm excited! But while it looks great and will probably feel good, I imagine it will primarily be for playing games [2] or decoration. And at the price point of high end mechanical keyboards, it's not cheap decoration. Of course, it won't look or feel cheap either.

The subculture is cool, though. A lot of people here write it off as an expensive hobby, but successful keyboard designers can quit their day jobs. Group buys are the norm because these keyboards are being made professionally in factories where they need to know how many to make. You can't go back and make one more after the run. They are so limited in stock because the designers can't afford to buy more than a few extras (sometimes dozens of extras) to sell after the group buy is over.

Yes, all of that leads to the "hype culture" if you're on the outside, there's a real cred to getting in on a limited run. But like anything, it makes more sense the more you know about it. (Of course, you might still end up leaving the hobby feeling like it was a waste of money!)

It means government authorities don’t have the authority to restrict people from moving in if they are US Citizens or otherwise in the country legally certainly not on the basis of whether they were born, grew up in the City or based on the type of job they have and its location.

An HOA might, I’m not too familiar with them, but as I understand it even they have legal limits on the restrictions they can place on people moving in, so maybe not. Someone else would have to chime in on that one.

Agreed otherwise.

Does SF have homestead property tax exemptions? Where I live property taxes are quite high, unless the property is owner occupied. The second homes and rentals subsidized the taxes of those who live here.

If reading the tea leaves about urban planning is the game, then it's also cherry picking.

How come kids are totally disinterested in cars? Oh wait, they're not disinterested in cars. There's a popular series of movies called Cars, and kids' toys include endless variations of cars like remote controlled cars and collections of miniature cars. When playing, kids will happily make vroom vroom noises and simulate car jumps and stunts and crashes, but I have never seen children's play involving the scenario of walking to a restaurant instead of driving there.
It's always bothered me that the local government of Adventure Bay chose to outsource pretty much all municipal services to a ten year old boy and his back of trained dogs.

Further, the revenue from that tax could be used to fund public housing to further drive down housing costs.

Land owners are not in the business of giving money away. That's precisely why increased taxes will not result in increased rents. After all, if they could increase rents and the market would clear it when there's a tax, why wouldn't they when there's no tax?

They're not selling at cost-plus, they're trying to maximize profit.
You know, it's been a while since I left Potrero Hill, but I think that I heard the feds had taken over the public housing projects on the south side (you know, back where OJ Simpson grew up) because they were basically uninhabitable. What's the status on that?

But you know, that's last generation projects. What's the status on today's "affordable housing" projects? Oh, you say it costs $750,000 in construction costs alone for an "affordable" 2BR apartment? Oh dear me, that's rather ridiculously steep, isn't it...

If the market will bare $3,100 for an apartment, then land lords will only get $3,100 for an apartment, regardless of the taxes owed.
AI-assisted "queue" management. We all accumulate a multitude of different lists to work on: tasks lists, email inbox, open tabs, bookmarks, saved articles, books to read, movies to watch, games to play. I've never seen anything that attempts to unify these against their common constraint: time.

I think an unexpected side benefit to this sort of system is a reminder that you've got stuff. Why have more. Or to make you value quality. Like buying good quality tools.

Battery technology seems to anecdotally increase capacity at 10% year on year, at best. The typical electric car has a battery that gets 150-200 miles at the moment. I don't expect to see a 1500-2000 mile range battery in 10 years. Or even 20 years.

You'll also "pay" the same tax/duty per mile as you currently do, when the law changes to include GPS chips in every car to track your mileage, since the government can no longer tax petrol at the pump. The next 10 years might be the golden 'cheap' era for electric cars before governments figure out how to make up the fossil fuel tax shortfall.

>"Disruption" means that you create a less qualitative, but cheaper product that would cannibalize the margins of the product of a company whose products are high-margin

Not exclusively. That's disruption in the sense of "undercutting".

Disruption in the large also means:

E.g. "things will change in how we do IT, entertainment, education etc due to VR".

Absolutely. Upzoning never forces owners to "give up their home"-- maybe the issue is owners don't want their neighbors to be able to sell their homes to developers either.

because we are super young ourselves, hence cognition gap between us and them are likely smaller.
I used to worry about this, but I realized that at some point, it will cease to matter. When everyone has dirty laundry, no one does, and the guy with none seems fake. We’re just in the one or two decade window where deepfakes aren’t prevalent yet and people still get outraged over stuff they read on Twitter. I give it another 10-15 years, tops.

Future startup business idea? Reasonably scandalous fake social media posts, enough to seem real but not enough to truly exclude you from anything.
I am surely an outlier being a developer, but I like to know the project language without clicking as an overview of what people are doing.

> The GP isn't saying this is happening, though. They're saying that selling rich people overpriced kale and strawberries can fund further research and innovation. Maybe the next step is corn. Maybe it's bankruptcy. But it has cash flow to invest in the research to see which one it is, in part from growing and selling the less impactful stuff now.

Something about vertical farms for staple foods just doesn't pass the smell test. One big aspect of farming is the conversion of solar energy to edible chemical energy. Assuming natural plants and some efficient way of using natural light, stacking farmland vertically just means less energy per acre. And barring some new kind of clean energy like fusion, using artificial light will just introduce conversion inefficiencies and expense, at best.

It definitely can help. In my experience, finding these kinds of bugs can help you get the interview, but it doesn't necessarily help that much once you get to the interview since the interview process is still standardized and focuses on evaluating you across a number of different areas (not just vulnerability research). But it definitely helps get some good attention!

Disclosure: I work at Google on their security team and reported a number of bugs to their VRP before I got hired.
This is soo needed.

Just a thought, but rather than a 'condition unchanged' link, randomly pick one of your review metrics and give the user a single click option to rate on that instead.

Another option might be to invite them to reply to the email with any follow-up thoughts on the product to add to their review.
I just hope one vertical is web forums. AFAICT, most useful knowledge that I search for is in the collective archives of reddit, stack overflow, comments here, and the endless sprawl of vbulletin.

> Does this description of disruptuon sound like any market prediction from the last 10 years how the market for VR glasses will develop? I don't think so.

That's because the limiting factor on VR hardware value to the consumer isn't resolution, or scene complexity as measured in polygons, or FPS, or any of the other metrics by which desktop games and game hardware are evaluated. It is latency. Latency in estimating and rendering the user's pose, movement, and viewport changes.

We would have had widespread adoption of immersive content by now if VR experience developers would be willing to sacrifice the 'traditional' metrics in favor of a ruthless focus on latency (and ideally push the hardware vendors in that direction too), but instead everyone keeps chasing "AAA graphics in a headset" , which, given that AAA graphics are (as the OP states) an ever-rising bar, can't ever really work except on whatever the current highest-end hardware is, and any experience that breaks people's willing suspension of disbelief on everything but the highest end hardware can't end up being a commercial success, any more than a multiplayer game with noticeable lag on anything under gigabit FTTH could (and for the same reason, except that the lag for VR starts with the single-player version, and only gets worse from there).
> There was no room for negotiation or to even take a day to think it over, if you walked away from it, there were 2 people right behind you to take it.

Naive question maybe, but if demand is that high, why don't prices rise even higher to balance it out a bit? Presumably most landlords would prefer another hundred or two a month at the cost of a few extra days on the market?
I wouldn't bet against urbanization. There are many advantages to living in a large, busy city and Zoom can only counter some of them.
I don't know man?

Game theoretically speaking, if a tech worker is older it's best to know what younger workers do not. For instance, an older worker is a good deal more likely to be hired if s/he is able to write the firmware for ray tracing video card hardware than s/he is to be hired for knowing how to write web apps in "cool language of the week". In fact, I'd argue that most of the older tech workers in the situation of being discriminated against, are the workers who spent their careers learning "cool language of the week". A few of them may get lucky and get a job doing something that a 22 year old new college grad can do, but what's the likelihood? Should you bet your family's future on those odds? Even if you get the job, what's the pay likely to be like?

I feel like a lot of tech workers never ask themselves these questions. It's never too early to ask them either, in fact you should ask them early in your career. Getting too comfortable doing things everyone knows how to do will make you decidedly uncomfortable once you hit 35 or 40.
> It is hard to beat the economies of scale of a restaurant, as much as the "you only need to factor the cost of raw food" camp like to tell otherwise

I'd be interested in seeing your math on the subject, and it probably depends on location and at what rate do you "bill" your time, but restaurants have a lot of overhead ( property, staff, taxes) that offsets economies of scale.

Even without going all-in with cheap foods ( like rice or potatoes), I can't imagine eating out in similar quality and quantity being cheaper than cooking it yourself ( again, depending on how you count your time spent).

Of course McDonald's cheapest items will be cheaper than making yourself lobsters, but that's not really a fair comparison.
I agree (and expect) that people new to the job market would be poor estimators of their market value. They would also have the least room to negotiate.
You are right. I should have pointed this out. I was trying to find citation about the conjecture I mentioned. I remember reading somewhere but only found this which says that it is an assumption.
> You can just add the Classic Editor plugin and you can use the old editor - it is that simple.

This is a terrible take from an ops perspective. "Just install plugins" ignores the fact that you're adding arbitrary executable code to your server, hoping whoever maintains it actually maintains it, actually secures it, and actually doesn't sell the plugin to a nefarious party at a later date.

Which is to say nothing of how many orgs allow management and marketing to choose which plugins to install. Try prying those access rights from their cold dead hands...
Novavax Starts Late-Stage Trial of Covid-19 Vaccine in U.S., Mexico
Tongue in cheek answer, but: No. That is the whole point of "efficient" graph databases. The point of a "graph database" in the more general sense is simply to be a database that uses a graph paradigm.

This is a silly pedantic point to make, but it is not necessarily trivial. E.g. it may be the case that a particular use-case scneario does not require massive efficiency, and has a lot to gain from the simplicity of sqlite. In which case this kind of project is an amazing thing to exist.

And if there is a way to get a valid benchmark comparison against a more traditional "efficient" graph database, then informed decisions can be made.

As a personal anecdote, a friend and I based a graph-based project on neo4j and were very happy ... until it was time to deploy. We then realised the installations involved were highly complex, rarely supported on traditional webhosts, and costs involved for adopting 'formal' commercial solutions were highly prohibitive. Had we known about this project at the time we would have definitely used it instead (at least as a proof of concept; you can always switch to a more efficient database later if you really have to)
Much of the sea off Scotland and the east coast is just too deep to build cost effective wind turbines at the typical current distances off-short in the rest of the country, and I suspect it is typically much more stormy with waves rolling in from the Atlantic. The southern North Sea/Doggerland is ideal in this respect on account that in geological terms, it is relatively recently flooded land that is still particularly shallow.
Isn't coal used as an ingredient to products, such as stainless steel, too though?
But property supply itself is a constrained effect of politics and the relative power of various social groups, not a unique and independent primary cause.

If landlords can make a killing by constraining supply politically, they will. So the primary cause is the incentive system and the political environment which makes it possible for them to do that.

It's all about how the reward functions are designed. So of course if you reward scarcity and profiteering that's what you get - as a secondary outcome, not a primary cause.
That's an interesting proposal, could you link something that breaks down the numbers? Special needs schools are separate from normal schools, so I can see how such a calculation might be possible.

The breadbasket as the name implies, grows mostly cereal crops: wheat, corn, barely and not a cereal but diverse use: soy. There are small operations that do grow more traditional vegetables, but due to their labor intensive harvests and produces short shelf lives, they are not terribly profitable (without underpaid migrant workers located near large populations to consume or process the produce quickly). This in my opinion is why we see things like water intensive almonds, only being harvested in places like water scarce California. Labor cost is something vertical farms often treat as a given, which at least for most of our non-cereal produce production, it is not.
Probably a part of tamper detection.

Not said anywhere but the spec looks like this is a good fit for military or industrial control panels.
Funny enough, I was looking for references related to this topic this morning.

I would add not just elderly care, but appropriate regulation of facilities that provide elderly care. Evidently, the standard business practice is to not just own the nursing home, but the businesses surrounding it, which are used to siphon money away from the facility. As an example, a separate legal entity owns the building and leases it back at a high rate, or the laundry and over charges, or the medical equipment and over charges, etc. It makes the facility look like they're losing money, but in fact the owning conglomerate profits handsomely:

https://prospect.org/familycare/the-corporatization-of-nursi...

The net affect is that the facilities themselves are incredibly understaffed and that leads to poor care and massive number of medical errors. As someone who's dealt with both assisted living and nursing home with my own family, it's incredibly frustrating.
