> we basically displace everyone living in the city eventually to make way for larger buildings that can house more people

In theory, this is true. In practicality, at least in America there's enough land with very little density, that a new building could be constructed while displacing basically no one (because the previous occupant of the land is already willing to move, it's just that the new seller isn't allowed to build anything).

Eventually, yes, we'll get to point where displacement is an issue, but right now it's not worth worrying about. Building dense really is a "free lunch" so to speak.

I probably agree with you overall, I just bring this up because a lot of NIMBY arguments use displacement as the boogeyman, and I'd rather not give them more support.

> The thing that really grinds my gears is that the solutions to housing scarcity effectively amount to building a wall around a city and making foreigners pay for it - and they're often championed by exactly the same kinds of people who otherwise are rightly opposed to immigration formalities.

WhatCouldPossiblyGoWrong™
I've given up on leaving reviews. For 3 stars to be average, you need to actually give average reviews to some things, thus I rate almost everything as 3 stars which results in the "what went wrong", "Nothing, you were average, just like everyone else". I got sick of that exchange and gave up. Doing better than average is almost impossible in my book because almost everyone is doing their best. Sometimes someone will mess up and get a 1, but not often, and not bad enough that they make enough of a difference as to raise everyone else to 5.

Also, I just don't buy enough of most things to honestly know. Is Brand X thing better than Brand Y - how should I know? I don't have the time to spend a week trying each item to give a fair review. I happened to choose Brand X, and it is fine but it might really be far worse than Brand Y if only I had tried the other in stead.
Not the parent, but I think it's possible to simultaneously believe two things:

1) It is completely understandable that, considering how easy it is to for a new programmer to get started in a dynamically-typed language (and that those languages are pushed very hard as beginner-friendly), many developers have a hard time grasping the idea of static typing and how to apply it to code, because their mental model just never included that, and changing mental models is hard for everyone.

2) It is absolutely horrifying that this is the state of new-developer education (or the lack thereof) in our industry, and I would put this on the (long) list of reasons why software in general is so unreliable.

I give the OP a lot of credit for writing about his journey, and by doing so making himself vulnerable to criticism. And it makes me really happy that he was able to not only eventually see the benefits of typing, but concretely articulate some of the benefits he found helpful[0]. That, IMO, is a sign of a solid developer who is willing to expand his skills and change his mind when given new information. But from a structural standpoint, I wish he had better mentorship when he started out and had never fallen into the "typing is bad" camp in the first place.

[0] "Making impossible states impossible" is something that I sometimes still struggle to impress upon developers with years of experience under their belts. The compiler is there to help you and catch your mistakes before you even check in the code, if you give the type system enough information to do so.

That's simply the risk a person takes by having a bitcoin wallet. Seems (at least right now) there are plenty of people who want the benefit of a permissionless value transfer system and are willing to shoulder that risk. Hopefully they secure their magical numbers / private keys better than the banks do, because yes, obviously, there is no Central Bitcoin Governor acting as the Reinstater of Last Resort.

Some people are fine with that risk. Others are not. It's totally cool. More than one value transfer system can coexist in the world.
Exactly. Especially when your actions are your own right to say what you think. It's akin to blasphemy and the problem is that the doctrine that you are violating has not been taught to anyone for them to even know that you are not allowed to say that.

Consequences arising from communication outside of work would make you liable to your corporation all of the time. Most of the arguments I see here are people should just know these things they are common sense, and that they have not seen any extreme examples, only things I personally believe are wrong so it's all good. Further some people here have claimed that they would actively work to get people fired that don't share their opinions and their opinions are discriminatory. Though their heart is in the right place, they don't live in the real world where people are raised in religions and cultures which actively promote those ideas. Therefore, they may believe their ideas to be right or generally acceptable. Holding people liable for "correct" ideas in an ever changing democracy is not sane. It's insane, you must be very dogmatic and authoritarian to believe these things just like the people who would work to get gay people fired for being gay, it's the other side of that same coin. It's wrong and I am happy to take all the down votes in order to state that point.

As for assholes being a protected class, it's called right to religious freedom. It's a human right. And many religions teach a lot of things that modern left who would use this sort of tool to power their way into winning. Which then will lead to the right seeking political solutions in the form of their own extreme power grabs.
One estimate probably includes shipping emissions for food and one doesn’t would be my guess.

Of course, plant based burgers might not reduce total final product shipping emissions but they might reduce a lot of the intermediary shipping emissions since cattle require feed.

Also, there’s that thing where we apparently ship chicken to china to be cleaned and then back sometimes? That seems bad, but I don’t really know any of the numbers. I can only assume it’s on those cargo ships which use very crudely refined fuels with little emission caps.

In Ontario and Quebec the entire economies are rent controlled to some extent - rents can only rise by a certain amount. It seems to work.

Also, with Berlin, perhaps it's an issue of splitting the areas that's bad, and also perhaps the excessive nature of the controls.

Finally, this may be related to an issue of low interest rates.

Low interest rates give much leverage to landed/owners so rents to up even if all other economic issues don't change.

Meaning that there is a kind of 'hidden inflation' which simply favours one class (owners) over the other.

Here are the Ontario regs [1]

Metrics are hard to justify and use on a "once every five years" type of access. Much simpler to throw the machine you don't know what it does into a VM and leave it alone.
In California the way this works is that a landlord takes a rental property off the market for 5 years, kicking out all of the existing tenants and leaving the property vacant, then remodels the building and rents the new luxury units to new tenants at market rate. The process is called "Ellissing", after the Ellis Act that allows it.

When a property is full of rent-controlled tenants paying far below market rate, it has a low value to most real estate investors. With the Ellis Act, however, the value of the property can actually go up as rents go out of sync with the market because it becomes an attractive investment to investors who would Ellis it.

The Supreme Court already did that in TC Heartland LLC v. Kraft Foods Group Brands LLC (2017), requiring patent infringement cases to be heard in the district where the defendant is incorporated.

We have not had low monetary inflation since at least the Ford presidency.

You are confusing the consumer price index for “inflation”. It’s understandable, this lie is one of the earlier examples of fake news.

When the fed prints money it goes to wall street and politically connected people. (This is quite literally the definition of fascism- a private economy run by government)

Wall Street profits from the inflation, but the rest of the people get poorer.

> Do you really think that suppressing professional home builders to make room for homesteaders building their own homes by hand is a good idea for Berlin?

No, and it isn't what I am suggesting. The point is that just that it becomes uninteresting for investors, it isn't for people actually living there. That doesn't exclude the professional execution of housing projects. I seriously doubt that people can build their home with their own hands and comply with German regulations. Especially in cities.

Housing developers might expect a lower margin, and if the margin is too low for such a business, people can take on the risk themselves and contract professionals to execute a joined housing development. People are already doing that.

> Time crystals should be stable and coherent over long time periods, because they - theoretically - oscillate at their lowest possible energy state. The team's research shows that driven magnonic time crystals can be easily manipulated, opening a new way to reconfigure time crystals. This could open up the state of matter for a range of practical applications.

> "Classical crystals have a very broad field of applications," said physicist Joachim Gräfe of the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems.

I also wonder how a time crystal is different from a harmonic oscillator.

Why no one is making money with cryptocurrency
I live in Berlin. I've found a regulated appartment for rent last year.

The author clearly exposes his sentiment in their choice of words. There's lots of buzzwords thrown around and not much reporting from here. Was the author even in Berlin before writing?

Anyways, in Berlin it will now get even "worse" as an initiative is now starting to collect signatures to disown "Deutsche Wohnen" of hundrets of thousands of flats they own.

I can see that the market is "bad" from that article. My experience with renting a flat was different:

The law allowed me to reduce my rent to a price I indeed find reasonable. It's roughly 100€ less. I'm happy with that. And in case our supreme court overthrows the Berlin ruling, I've gotten read and saved the "shadow rent".

Certainly you have to look at causations for that holistically. People have cooked and eaten meat in the past as well. It needs to be further studied on the qualities that has driven our growth in the industrial age. I think we now have a better understanding of our bodies and how to gamify our growth, through a myriad of ways whether or not eating certain amounts of meat and balancing it with other foods.
The use of hex codes in skeuomorphic representations reminds me of a small detail in branding that I learned a few years ago from a friend.

Because of how the same hex code will translate into different colors on different devices/screens, brands will often define print and digital palettes separately, and their print palettes might also change slightly based on the medium, like on card stock vs. cardboard. Turns out just picking the "same" color across multiple mediums is non-trivial.

Tesla does without dealers, in part because electric cars require far less service. They have many fewer moving parts (under two dozen, by some counts). They don't need oil changes; their timing belts don't wear out; they don't need tuneups.

That's why car dealers have set up rules trying to keep Tesla out of many states. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesla_US_dealership_disputes for the whole rigamarole.

In Volvo's case it sounds like they're planning on having a large hybrid line that would still go through conventional dealers, which can presumably be tasked to deal with the electric stuff (though I'm sure there will be a fight about who pays what).
totally agree: here's no rent control but a friend could see trickle-down economics at work from his office with half the condos (10years old building) across the yard being "under renovation" so that owners can just squeeze supply to artifically increase prices without being fined for this antisocial behavior...

Have you ever noticed how sometimes when you look at your watch, the second hand seems to linger for slightly more than a second? This is due to saccadic masking. When your eyes move quickly, your brain cannot process the visual data. So it just backtracks and fills it in backwards with whatever it ends up seeing.

If the satellite passed into the shadow of the earth and dissappeared, your eyes could move to track another one without you seeing any perceptual gap at all.

I eat less meat because I think quality has declined; as meat is seen as the default-superior option, quality is less scrutinised, and has thus lowered.

As such, either I buy expensive, from a trusted location, I I stick to something else; Vegan options has been good quality so far, not that I don't expect this to change in the future.

Right now highly processed & shaped pink slime (with added salt + sugar) is sold at unreasonable prices, partly because people don't know what they are eating (or what it's really worth, often masquerading at other things), and partly because the main factor in consumer choice is PR budget - the low cost cheap meat therefore gets the higher marketing budget.

My one hope in this space is grocery delivery services becoming the norm will make it easier for people to scrutinise products from the comfort of home, with the convenience of a search engine.

The discussion of the fat percentage misses the relevant concern. Mineral oil, unlike vegetable or animal fat, is a petroleum product and carcinogen that bioaccumulates in body fat.

The oekotest.de link also discusses methylcellulose as a cause of indigestion (a symptom mentioned in this thread), and the presence of genetically modified soy. GM crops are a concern because of their tolerance to high pesticide levels.
In the experiment, the crystals were driven by RF excitation. Do time crystals generally require a constant energy source to oscillate? I would assume not, since they're called crystals...

Also, is the oscillation frequency temperature dependent?
It depends on the lender. Some of the larger ones take "warrants" to help protect against this. Most lenders (believe it or not) will want to negotiate terms that help you get back on track.
No, this is not the reasoning that helps your argument at all.

It's false to claim you need to kick people out of homes in order to have new developments. Though the notion of 'lack of investment in capped rentals' may be true, that has nothing to do with new housing.

The entirety of Ontario and Quebec (and I'm going to bet most of the rest of Canada) has a form of rent control, in that at least there are caps on the amount of rental increase.
