I’m familiar with the gathering they are writing about. It’s really not a disturbance whatsoever anymore. It’s a shame there are people being so up tight about it. In years past it definitely got out of control sometimes and the bass was so loud it would rattle houses a quarter mile away. I definitely wouldn’t have felt comfortable having an infant exposed to that noise level during those times. But it’s been fine for at least a couple years and it doesn’t go too late.

> I don't think increasing housing density is the answer. We really don't need more luxury apartments or million dollar condos.

This was my first natural instinct maybe 5 years ago, but seeing the differences in gentrification stories has made it clear it's far worse to keep density the same. If nothing in the city changes and rich people decide they want to flock to your city (in this case, tech workers), it's a given that the existing poorer people will be forced out and prices will increase. Measures like rent control only slow the process, holding back a rising tide.

I've seen this personally in my backyard in Brooklyn. What has happened there is that massive luxury towers have been built along a busy street (central to transit but still not "neighborhoody"). While rents have still gone up, it seems this real estate and luxury market has helped stave off the insane hikes SF has seen, for example. Million dollar condos, probably not a good idea. But luxury buildings with high density turn into normal real estate in 20 years, and that top of the market ease keeps a lot of that tech money out of existing minority and poor neighborhoods.

The question for Austin if they accept that is where to put them. Finding a balanced place would be key here IMO.

> The other harms practically no children and will likely lead to some more parents dying

Really? You think that a parent dying harms "practically no children"?

Neurodivergent folks often need a little extra time to learn or for somebody to sit down and explain things to clearly. We do not need a carte blanche for decades of sexual harassment. That's just somebody being an asshole and using us as a shield.
This is really depressing... It's like there's no escaping this type of mentality anywhere in the U.S. I'm currently in the process of leaving California. I won't miss it at all I'm afraid.
100% in agreement on the nuance here. I used metro area above rather than city limits, and that will 100% not capture some of that neighborhood level migration away from the cultural center of the city. I think that's important to capture and wish the article did with more detail, but I think this point was meant to be an aside to a more qualitative story. I have no doubt the gentrification story of Austin has been covered in nuanced detail before this, so I hope people don't write off the article due to this.

A lot of the Austinites like to say "Welcome to Austin, don't move here" or some such silliness. The "funny" thing is the ones that say this the most are the ones not originally from Austin but feel they have been there "long" enough to call it home.

I'm responding really late because I didn't check my threads for a while, but in response to your first point, there's plenty of GC'd languages that can give you type safety and compiler checks. As others have pointed out, Java, TypeScript and Go are fairly solid compiled languages with GC. If you want more type safety, Scala, F#, Ocaml and Haskell all have extremely powerful type systems that I personally find very useful when working on complicated business logic (my personal favorite is Ocaml). In the more exotic space, Nim has a really cool cross between ARC and GC, and comes with dependent types for extra safety! GC is not perfect, and as you point out, a "stop the world" GC can cause more pain than is saved from not having to do manual memory management, but I think there's a lot of good work in the space that makes me think really hard about picking up a language that would require manual memory management.
If matrix A has a single nonzero column (ai) in the first column and B has a single nonzero row (bj) in the first row, then A * B computes all pairwise products ai * bj.

To be honest I’m not sure whether that really proves it. Does computing a single multiplication require a multiplication?
> In America the dialogue basically seems to just be "omg cases are rising? SHUT DOWN EVERYTHING".

I have relatives that live in Florida (in fact, I was Florida the day the pandemic was declared). And just a few months ago Florida just basically declared the pandemic is over -- no shut down, no mandatory masks, and the social distancing signs and materials gone.

A shut down is a big stick that's needed once the exponential growth starts returning and all signs are that things are going to get overwhelmed. In this US, this is a regular issue.

You say your point isn't the lockdowns aren't necessary but now it really isn't clear what your saying. If the point is the US is, in general, incompetent at this then I wouldn't disagree. But I'd argue your focus on lock downs is misplaced rather than everyone else's. The same people who don't want lock downs also don't want all those million other less destructive measures. And people who may want lock downs also want those million other less destructive measures.
It is truly the golden age of officious busybodies.

When the population of a city suddenly jumps, increasing density is the ONLY answer. Without extra housing, where do you think all those extra people will live? In the apartments of current residents of course. This is not a view held solely by freemarket enthusiast or "neoliberals" or whatever. Even the DSA understands this. Their only disagreement is that they think the government should be the ones building the housing. I can't get my head around the prevalence of this anti-density view. It's the climate denialism of the left.

Not having Prop 13 and not know where you are posting from, what is Prop 13?

edit: apparently, it's some sort of limiting of property tax. yes, texas does not have that, as property tax and sales tax are the only taxes. no state income tax has its pros/cons. it's part of being a texan to annually challenge your homes appraisal value. the only time i've ever had an issue with property tax was my first home when i was 21. it was new construction, so for the first year of the loan, the value was based on the unimproved lot. the next year, escrow doubled because they updated to the new value with the house, and needed to double dip to cover the difference from the previous year. more than doubled the payment. hard lesson to learn.
> I held out a small hope that covid and the remote-work wave would stem things a little bit, but it's hard to say whether that's happened. If anything, the influx could have increased due to the exodus from SF.

This is exactly what we're seeing in the Seattle area. A lot of people in the various circles I'm in thought, as we entered the early stages of this pandemic really settling in for the long-haul, "well, phew, at least it'll put a breather on housing costs."

Nope.

Because of the "work wherever you want" and Seattle and Puget Sound still being a wonderfully attractive place to live, the pace has accelerated. Housing prices here have shot up by double-digit numbers, even inside the city limits from which people are supposedly "fleeing." Both the north and south ends of Seattle, even West Seattle where the main road link has been severed for a year (as of today), have seen massive upticks.

The Department of Licensing has released statistics that show that the number of California driving licenses and vehicle titles exchanged for Washington ones is the second-highest it's been in ten years, with only 2018 being higher, and that's with most DOL offices being closed or heavily restricted due to in-person limits from the virus. (The influx of cars isn't going to do our "pristine environment" any favors, either, and I look forward to the even-louder rants about how terrible traffic is driving by oneself from Marysville to Queen Anne for a hockey game).

Meanwhile, people around here continue to insist that building is bad and, I shit you not, that if we simply don't build then the people will stop coming. I don't know why anyone still thinks this; it hasn't been true for twenty years, why should now be any different? And the new arrivals aren't keen on building more or making sure newer arrivals have space because, well, they moved here, to this spot because they liked it that way and, gosh-darn-it, this space is going to stay like this forever.

It's getting quite frustrating. After many, many years of waiting and hoping and moving around, I finally live near where a light rail station will be opening in the coming year-ish and I fear, even on my moderately good tech salary, I'm not going to be able to afford to live here before the train arrives, or shortly thereafter.

It has less to do with YC and more to do with the nature of success, network and accumulation of resources. What it has to do with the topic is that it has created an inequality where YC companies have an advantage through access to the network. You just have to look at OpenAI access model to understand how this creates a two tier environment. YC alum can pick up the phone and have access them same day just to fuck around and potentially make a new unicorn business. People on the outside? Good luck. Yes I understand that OpenAI isn’t a YC company but the same will apply to YC companies... OpenAI was just my personal most recent experience.
I agree per-seat is problematic, but (from experience) per-resource-configured is similar.

Usage-based sounds like the ideal solution. Although I haven't figured how to set that up yet. Your don't want to encourage low usage.

r22 has a much lower ozone depletion potential than r11/r12, which were used as refrigerants before. AC use in developing countries is more a global warming issue than an ozone shield issue. A lot of replacements are highly potent greenhouse gases.

The ozone shield had a 4 percent loss since the 70s in average, much larger local losses aka "ozone holes". Fortunately not many people live at the north or south pole.

I am not saying that Google is going to kill core product offerings like K8S... what I am saying is that they lack focus, and change direction without regard for their customers. That, coupled with their famously bad support means that I can't sleep at night with the confidence that I can build a complex product on top of their offering. I'll always be worrying that I have to rip out or re-architect large parts of my code to deal with their lack of product stability.

Most of the ships have unused cabins, and some shipping companies allow civilians to book them as a sort of quirky cruise experience. There is quite a lot of paperwork involved, and you need to book fairly far in advance, but it's totally doable if you have the cash and the time. When I went it cost around us$100 per night. Going from Europe to Asia takes 3-4 weeks, I think going around the world (both Suez and Panama) can take 6 weeks or more.

If you are concerned I'd suggest obtaining your honey from farmers markets and small producers, rather than shareholder profit driven corporates.

In my country it's very popular for individuals to own bee hives, and I can't remember the last time I bought honey in the supermarket. The quality of the honey, the taste and the texture is completely different. Whenever I only have access to commercial honey (e.g. travelling), it just tastes like sugar syrup to me.

I guess that depends on where you walk.

In mother nature's embrace, I prefer to walk with my senses open. Especially when I was in Virginia, I love walking on the trails. I could hear birds and insects, see trees and grasses, and sniff the fresh hearty aroma of the luxuriant ecosystem. It was pleasant to open up myself to the nature.

Now that I live in a city, during my jog, I see vehicles, hear engines and leaf blowers, and smell gasoline, pot, and alcohol. No thanks. I'd rather escape to 18 century music, so I can forget about the grim reality for 40 minutes.

> the prize awards 5000 euros for each one percent improvement (with 500,000 euros total funding)

I get the feeling that Marcus Hutter is going to be able to keep some of his money.

EDIT: This apparently isn't the case! Turns out the prize is based on improvements of the current record, not the starting baseline. From the website's FAQ[1]:

> Theoretically you can win more than 500'000€. For instance, if you halve the current record, then halve your own record, and then again halve it, you would receive 3×250'000€

We're still not particularly likely to see a full payout, but much more likely than the way I initially interpreted it.

The largest downfall in PoS is how the new coins go to existing coin holders, causing the rich to get richer .. centralizing the ownership of the network. PoW miners have hard cost to pay in the competitive market and the profit margins tend towards zero. This real cost means that miners have to sell coins if they need to recover production costs. The selling creates downward pressure until the market settles at a natural price floor. Gold buyers have understood the market price floor in relation to production costs for a long time. This lack of production costs with pure PoS systems leads to centralized ownership and a manipulated market, and this is why we see pure PoS coins with manipulated sky high market caps. I will never buy a pure PoS coin because a manipulated price doesn't satisfy legitimacy by fairness.
I don't think it applies in this case: the rule was already in place and unnoticed until a high-profile incident drew attention to it: they are not trying to suppress mention as a response to newfound notoriety.
I agree with all of this except the statement that Medium busted the union. There really was no need.

There are ways that people talk about gentrification that always makes me slightly uncomfortable. As a non-white person, something always feels like gentrification is something that “good” white people like to blame “bad” white people for doing, when the real problem tends to be wider and more systemic.

In this particular instance I find myself asking why it matters that the Weaver residents were originally not from Austin. If you’re born in Chicago, shouldn’t you still have the same rights as someone who was born in Austin? That includes the right to complain. However it doesn’t mean anyone has to listen to you. As other users have pointed out, it’s not exactly a new situation for people to move to a neighborhood and immediately try and kick their neighbours out. It’s just that most of the time they’re told to kick rocks.

It seems to me the real crux of this issue is that rich white people are so much more prioritized by the law that a couple of irate Karens can overrule an entire neighbourhoods opinion. It has nothing to do with where they’re from or gentrification.

Not that gentrification doesn’t cause it’s own problems. But the way some people talk about it, as though existing residents are entitled to a higher set of rights, leads down some pretty dark paths, especially when newcomers are of a different nationality, or race than current residents. It reminds me of something that used to be said a lot in jest when I was younger in the 90’s and 00’s and working in fast food. Whenever people gave me extra work to do, they justified it by saying something like, “well, he should just be grateful he isn’t working in a rice paddy” (I’m from Singapore originally, but ok). There seemed to be this view that because my parents chose to move to Canada when I was young, I was somehow entitled to fewer rights, even as a citizen.

Compare the red/black line on the ship's hull and the water line. Under normal conditions, the red/black line is parallel to the water across the length of the ship:

In this picture of the ship stuck in the Suez, the red/black line appears to tilt noticeably upwards towards the bow:

If this isn't some sort of optical illusion, the bow of the ship appears runaground by quite a bit.

I know just enough about material science to say probably not. A munition needs to break or penetrate a surface to be effective. To do that it needs to apply a great deal of force in a short period of time- spreading the force out over space or time reduce the destructive capability of the munition. So getting hit 500 times by 1 lbs bombs is not the same as getting hit once by a 500 lbs bomb- it’s not additive, the 500 lbs destroys things the 500 1 lbs can’t.

That being said, I’d imagine being on the receiving end of 500 1 lbs explosives is still a very bad day.

That's a good find, I'd like to see the 2020 census data but we're still waiting on that. At any rate, when you look closer at the data from 2000 to 2010, you see several trends:

- Black 18+ pop increased from 45.5K to 46.2K
- Black children pop decreased from 18.7K to 14.5K
- Hispanic pop increased from 200K to 277K (most significant demographic increase)
- White, non-Hispanic percentage decreased from 53% to 49%
- Asian percentage increased from 4.7% to 6.3%

Either black people in Austin had less kids from 1992-2010 than 1982-2000 (possible, given the stable adult pop numbers) or black families left for the suburbs or other cities entirely.

In 2010, Austin real estate was still quite affordable and the east side was not quite developed (article mentions a house could be bought for $100K there).
