This usually boils down the the chicken and egg problem of infrastructure and jobs. In Korea, the majority of the population is within the Seoul area, so most of the jobs are there and all the infrastructure to support them is concentrated there. Sydney and Melbourne are much the same in Australia, and the results are the same, where as soon as you leave these centres, there are no jobs or infrastructure available. As mentioned by another commenter above, Tokyo did this right with central planning and a more decentralised business district, where ‘Tokyo’ is basically 4 or 5 cities around each other, and there is infrastructure and transport there to support the intended population.
Possibly, but what they do have is robust fact checking and editorial departments. And, a history of when they are wrong reporting on those errors. Something you don't see much with organizations without those safeguards.

It is really a beautiful movie. Highly recommended for anyone who loves cinematography.

However, as a movie it flopped at the time despite the great technical work. The Soviets completely misread and misunderstood the Cubans and turned into a melancholic poetic piece, that had zero appeal, except maybe for the Soviet team who made it. I mean stuff like the address to "Mr. Columbus" in the intro on how the ships "took away all the sugar and left only tears". It's true figuratively on a level, but it just isn't how Cubans would have put it.

There is a documentary that was made where they interviewed Cubans and the Russians who worked on the film. It's quite fascinating, but I can't seem to find it anymore to provide a link to it.

The reason why Seattle has grown so much in transit usage relative to other cities is because they made it illegal to build more suburbs and to build car infrastructure. This is in contrast to a lot of the other regions mentioned in the article which while they invested in transit, also invested in roads and did not regulate suburban development. The article mentions these exact policies as a reason for transit growth: “[Seattle] has made efforts to centralize jobs in downtown areas” and “Portland’s urban growth boundary has been effective in limiting car-centric sprawl” (Seattle has an UGB as well).

This was not a market choice and was deliberate on the part of the planners who want to promote a specific lifestyle. Good luck getting an apartment building or office tower approved in Seattle if you build enough parking for your tenants to all own a car or for a large portion of your employees to drive to work. The major downside of the policies is an increase in street parking and congestion (because people don’t get rid of their cars at the same rate planners expect them to) and an increase in the price of houses (not housing) due to simple supply and demand reasons.

Buying a house in the Seattle metro area is a great investment: as long as Amazon keeps hiring the number of people wanting houses will go up and since the supply of houses is fixed (or increasing slower than population growth or even decreasing), your home’s value will rise.

If you like Seattle’s preferred lifestyle, or already own a house, it’s a great place to live, but if you aspire to own a house and aren’t rich, then good luck and you may want to consider moving.
So many of their recent films with worldwide acclaim are about rampant classism and economic inequality. Even as someone not super in touch with Korean social sentiment, I still get the feeling that Koreans are getting super fed up with their status quo. Might not be "having an effect" so much as "reflecting the way they feel".
1. How this is a feature? You share one bit out of 200 tweets and expect the audience to understand what it is about and comprehend the proper context? That isn't happening. The only thing that happens is taking quotes out of context and misinterpreting them.

Blogging takes the same effort as twitter-threading, except it saves you annoying "1/"s and clicking "post" each time. Just do like a twitter thread, but instead of clicking "post" (or whatever it's called) press "enter". Once you're done, you've got a blog post. So easy.

It's not that black and white. CLT is more of a group of materials with different characteristics than a single thing. Fire rated versions of it exist and are commonly used depending on the requirements and building codes. This article has a nice overview: https://constructionexec.com/article/fire-safety-of-clt-and-...

Using cheaper materials for low rise might indeed be an issue. Also, living in houses that are mostly low quality plywood and other flammable materials is of course not great for fire safety. It's a tradeoff between cost, requirements, and regulations.

Even concrete buildings sometimes collapse when fire gets hot enough. Metal loses its strength when it gets warm enough. The collapse of the Twin Towers in New York are a pretty grim example of that.
Lots of talk about documentation in this thread but returning to the book: has anyone read it or seen an independent review yet? I've seen the authors hyping its release; now I want to know if it's any good :)

If there is demand for housing and you do not make supplying that demand illegal someone will supply it. People live in dormitories in Hong Kong right now. Perfectly safe but middle class busybodies don't like flophouses, SROs or dormitories so they make it illegal.

If it was legal to provide housing in San Francisco in dorms it would be done. If it was legal to build residential skyscrapers in New York Queens would look like Brooklyn if not Manhattan.

Make building housing legal and the market will provide.

Here's a study of 900 Vietnamese healthcare workers, where 7% of vaccinated workers were infected, https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=3897733

Recent UK medical data for the week of 7th Oct reports possible Covid reinfection in the range of 0.005% (narrowly defined as specific genetic sequence) to an upper estimate of ~1% of 5.9 million people, https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/...

Comparing only these two examples, vaccinated people were infected by Covid at a rate somewhere between 7 times and 1000 times higher than those who previously recovered from Covid. As expected, the infected+vaccinated people did not suffer serious illness, because the vaccines provided protection against serious illness.

> Those who have been vaccinated are also "statistically immune", and through a lower risk route

This is a popular misconception that doctors, pharmaceutical companies and the CDC have attempted to correct, e.g. Sept 2021 CDC website clarification that vaccines provide "protection against serious illness" NOT immunity. Current, intramuscular Covid vaccines are explicitly stated by the CDC and manufacturers as NOT providing sterilizing immunity (which has a textbook definition). They provide protection via serum/blood antibodies, against serious illness. Recovery from Covid infection (of vax or unvax) provides nasal/mucosal immunity that can stop future infections in the upper respiratory tract. Future nasal Covid vaccines may provide sterilizing immunity, but current injections into the deltoid muscle do not.

> You think this 1/3rd of the police that refuses to state their vaccination status already had COVID? Where's your evidence?

We know that Covid swept through dense, urban areas like Chicago, Los Angeles and New York, infecting large segments of the population, especially essential workers like police, firefighters, paramedics and healthcare workers who served the public in the challenging year of 2020. If an essential worker was exposed for nine months, including the peak periods of infection and transmission, and was not knowingly infected, they could have been asymptomatically infected.

Those who worked from home and avoided infection should avoid projecting their own experience onto those who kept them safe in 2020.

Has anyone worked with bamboo plywood? How does it compare to other plywoods?

It doesn't appear (at least on the website linked) to be particularly cheap - a full sheet of 20mm bamboo plywood is almost €300! You could probably buy 3-5 sheets of 18mm baltic birch for that price - hardly the cheap material they're claiming.

I bought a cheap chair made of bamboo once and it was very soft - it didn't give me the impression it would hold up very long. Perhaps some of the processing steps for plywood improve that?

How do you feel about working for FAANG?
Hi,

I'm a SWE working at one of the big tech co. and I'm based in London. It's possibly the same in SV, but in London the amount of money you earn at big tech co is easily 2x if it's not 3x in comparison to startups and 99% of those don't even do exit / IPO so even the little stock option they give is meaningless.

To be able to afford some pretty normal things like 3 bed flat or ok-ish car, I have to work at FAANG or Hedge fund. That said recently I started finding it hard to convince myself in mission and the way those companies work. For the one I'm working and I can potentially move .

Like,

- Is Twitter really a good place for having conversation? Is it ever going to grow from where it has been for the last 5 years?

- Does Facebook's mission make sense anymore? With Apple changes and more to come, is their business model still ok?

- Although the company do well, do I want to join to a company which is well known with its PIP culture? (Amazon)

- Do I really want to put all my identity aside and join Apple and don't do anything other than Apple? (They are way to strict on this side project thing)

- Is it possible to develop a product in Google, that's not boring? Also is "Don't be evil" still one of the company values of Google?

So on and so fort. Endless things that definitely leaves sour taste in the mouth.

Since those companies under the spotlight I also noticed that even following the news about your company becomes tiring after some time.

How do you feel? Maybe I'm putting too much meaning into this work thing.

> Tokyo did this right with central planning and a more decentralised business district

What central planning? A more decentralised business district is what happens if you don't make it illegal. People will buy up residential property and turn it into commercial or office if it's not illegal to do so. It's not about planning. It would be more accurate to call it not planning.

> there is infrastructure and transport there to support the intended population.

Again, no one intended this. They didn't decide to make Tokyo this size. They just didn't actively get in the way. They built the infrastructure and transport that they had good reason to believe there was demand for. In contrast the NYC subway system is basically teh same as when it was taken over by the government and public transport is significantly worse than 1940 insofar as there are no street cars.
Let's say I have a table in my application, and I want the user to be able to select which columns of a very wide table to show. I could of course return all columns all the time and filter on the frontend, but the more efficient way would be to determine the columns to be fetched from user input. And at that point I need to derive column names from a user string. Of course this should be implemented as picking from a whitelisted set of column names.

I think it is clear that Mozilla lost their relentless focus on their core mission a few years ago. The social justice / political theater you’ve alluded to is an indication of cultural rot. I often view activism in the workplace as a precursor to the fall of a business, because it very literally is the act of placing personal employee agendas ahead of customers and products. In this case, looking at that absurd and undeserved compensation for Baker, I also wonder if the political theater is actually a shield that helps distract people from a failing leadership.
I don't, sorry, it was just something I got curious about due to this post.
I'm perfectly aware. I don't want to build advanced tech, it's not my goal. I want to build simple tech that lets me build my gameplay easier than it is in UE5. In my opinion gameplay programming in UE5/Unity isn't nice at all. Way too abstracted and too generic for my usecase.

In my case, simplicity is the key for productivity.

I think https://github.com/jonas/tig and several other such tools are kind-of like that.
Long time lurker here, first time poster. I got pulled into the rabbit hole of building guitars at home during the covid lockdowns. My first build used traditional "tonewoods" (mahogany, ebony, rosewood etc.) and while purchasing materials for my second build, I stumbled upon bamboo boards on a German wood retailed shop.

Compared the properties to the wood I wanted to use for parts of it (mainly the core/neck and fretboard) and decided to go for it.

So the second build [1] is 40ish % bamboo with purpleheart veneers in between layers of bamboo and purpleheart/olive for the body. Next build will be around 80% bamboo. Trying to source some strand woven bamboo boards to try them out as fretboards as well, but for a part time builder like me, getting such small quantities of bamboo boards is rather hard.

But yeah, fascinating material even outside of construction use. The boards I used for the guitar builds were nice to work with, easy to sand and finish (using wipe on poly).

Ok, soft G might be the best choice.
Magit is an exceptionally well made interface to Git. Yes, it’s built on top of Emacs, and that might stop many from even looking into it. - I am glad I made a deep dive into Emacs last year, and although I stopped using it as an IDE (VS Code is just too good), I still come back to it because of Magit (and macros, general text editing and org-mode). Yes, I have an interface for Git in VS Code as well, but it‘s very rudimentary compared to Magit, and it’s limited to the narrow left bar. And to give an example: Making „micro commits“ by staging various lines of changes is super easy in Magit, but I still haven‘t found out how to select several disconnected lines for staging in VS Code.

I agree with the author. I've also quit my job as a software dev. early this year, after about 10 years in the industry in various companies (so I can say it's not just a local issue) Having some savings, I'm looking to reorient into something else, also technical, but more hands on - literally. Also, as an added note I think that a large part of software written today makes the world a worse place to live in (I'm thinking social platforms and cloud computing - one taking away the realness and empathy in interacting with each others and the other taking away the ownership of anything). Also, don't get me started on ads system and the crap list of apps/games/software in general that gets pushed down people's throats due to big advetising budgets. If the people working in the industry as software devs doing the above would instead use their creativity and skills in other fields of work (ie. actual science and engineering) we would have a better world. I truly loathe the software development industry in all aspects, as it unfolds today. Not the software dev. activity itself, mind you. But the current goals, players (corporations) , environments, values and trends of the industry as a whole!
