I think Thompson there was suffering from buyer's remorse. His Rolling Stones article, instigated by a speech that probably lost Carter a few important friends, significantly contributed to selling the candidate to the hard left, which was large and influential at the time. A year later, I think he felt the classic sense of "betrayal of the revolution", or maybe was just trying to distance himself from the promises he had helped popularize in '76. The sort of things he said, beyond the showmanship, basically apply to any post-Kennedy politician, and possibly even the ones before: they will sell their mother if it gets them elected. In this respect Carter was not really different, or he wouldn't have been elected US President.

To add to this, I do not have a phd in econ, but did what you recommended and work as a data scientist with PhD economists. If you do this, you will make just as much as they do.
> but ultimately most people /want/ to drive everywhere if they can afford to, otherwise cars wouldn't have taken off in the first place.

I don’t buy it. People want cars since our infrastructure is optimized for it. But I seriously doubt that most people want cars specifically as the optimized transit solution for urban environments.
Because the government didn't set that minimmum, its what society determined over a course of 150 years as to what is "fair". Once the majority of the businesses by choice start reducing that, and the 32 hour week becomes the norm then sure legislate that for everyone. But it can't be imposed until then.

Nobody would storm the capital, nobody would call for blood.
The prices mainly went up so fast because interest rates in Germany went to 0 and below. Get the central bank rate up to 3% and you’ll see property values crash.

But yes I agree, make living outside cities worthwhile and attractive.

People who live on farms are feeding the rest of us. They're kind of important.
Its a bit tough to talk about nothing changing in 30 years and not talking about unification, which makes it a completely different market. After the war East and West overbuilt Berlin to make it a showcase where economically it didn't attract a lot of people.
This is a very slick tool that allows you to forward ports from your local machine to a public server at `bore.pub`.

I hope this service will continue to be available, however it looks to me as if this service is very easily abused (e.g. by spreading illegal content). But even if it just gets popular there are bandwidth costs which may run high quickly, if you have a few 100 heavy users.

If the author is here:

- How much of a concern is this for you?

- Do you have plans to offset the bandwidth fees?

- The backend is a single host, right? When would you need to scale this?
"Stroads" are in commercial areas by definition. A typical neighborhood designed after the car became popular does not have any multi lane roads inside of it. It will have them around it, but people who live in the neighborhood will not be directly on the arterial roads. The larger road used for commercial transport in low density areas is either a "stroad" or highway.

Please take five minutes to look on Google Maps before commenting about neighborhood design in a country 5000 miles away.
>so some of the stuff these people say sounded a bit extreme to me

Excuse me? If the whole fuck-cars premise or really anything about not owning a car, replacing car lanes with bike lane etc, sounds really radical/non-sensical to you, please spend some time on the Not Just Bikes YT channel, read a bit of r/fuckcars or r/lowcars and try to approach this with an open mind.
I have visited European cities and doing anything requires huge time investments and careful planning.
I don't know what bizzaro world those people live in where they will actually find a parking spot in the front of their destination. A given block has what like 10 spaces for cars? In a city with thousands of road users your odds of finding a parking spot that's truly convenient to the destination are going to be so low. I bet most everyone currently parking on the street is parking in some compromised somewhat inconvenient spot. That's why I find the strongest voices of people keeping the street parking are usually the abusers: that neighbor who has some hardly functional car they roll out three feet to take up two spots while they are away with the other car, and roll back when they get home, or that mechanics shop that parks customer vehicles out there at 4am when the spots are actually available and holds them in perpetuity or to use them for their own employees convenience.

"and their mind is wiped clean."

Or they realize that most public transit here is unreliable junk. It's almost never on time. This isn't a huge deal until you have to catch a connection/transfer and being late by 5 minutes mens you have to wait another 30-60 minutes for the next one. Or that they completely shut down after something like 1am. Oh, and I good luck to people not losing their job when the system goes on strike and you can get to work for a few days.

I would love to have great public transit. Much of these issues are policy or design issues. The policy issues need to be addressed. If only there was some accountability to the public...

Just for a fun story, my car broke down and I had to take public transit for a month. It was easier for me to walk 2 miles (no real sidewalk for most of it and busy roads) than to rely on the bus schedule. It took me 1.25 hours to get to work using two trains and a bus, when in the car it would take 20 minutes.

So as much as we want good public transit, we can't suddenly start using it if it doesn't exist. People have basically given up on it when schedules are a joke and the whole system can shut down for days or weeks.
I think a bigger story should be as to why a public school district decided to pay someone $5000/hr for consulting.

Wonder if there were kickbacks involved, or just incompetence.
Some ideas require you to drop everything, keep you up all night. They force their way into your life and demand attention.

Most ideas fall into another category where success is possible with hard work and time but you have to fuel it yourself somehow.

Where does this idea lay?

Keep working in it at different paces. Remember your priorities. If you need to focus in school you should prioritize that until you prioritize your business.
Higher interest rates solve it. Or a LVT that’s tied to interest rates - as rates go up, tax goes down etc.

The problem with property taxes of course are the people paying them are also the people living there. So good luck running on that platform heh.
This is very good for endurance cardio. Somewhat less so for anaerobic or higher power levels IMO. For those workouts you can benefit from having a meal or two in your system to stress your muscles more without being limited by energy levels.

I get what you're saying. For a bunch of reasons my wife and I also spend a lot of time preparing meals. Real-estate folks describe ours as a "galley kitchen", not well-endowed with counter/work space. Having dinner guests is a real challenge. It resolves to KISS principles, but with some planning it's amazing what can be accomplished.

As to design, we've gravitated to a relatively spare approach. Though not at all imitating "industrial" space, after all, we actually live in our home. Linoleum flooring, quartz composite countertops, stainless sink/range, laminate cabinets, etc., are "homey" enough but also durable materials.

One thing is crystal clear: in small kitchens storage is a precious resource. Dedicated cooks prefer buying supplies in larger quantities, spices, flours, etc. That means a tightly managed pantry with little empty space. Sometimes having "too many" cabinets can be a good idea.

But understandably tastes and needs vary, so no doubt others would do something entirely different with the space our kitchen occupies. Then again, if I was designing our kitchen from scratch, well, it would be so MUCH better, but WTH, when wouldn't that be the case.
> I don’t know about you but I hate ads and like to pay for my content

Since when has paying for content meant no ads?

I pay for a newspaper - ads, I pay for cable tv - ads, I pay for the internet - ads, I pay road tax - ads, I go to the cinema - ads, I buy a ticket to a sporting event - ads.

That is before we get to the influencer product placement world.
Staff+ engineers generally report to middle managers, and are expected to work across that middle manager’s subordinate teams.

In upper management it might be one very senior “right hand.” In the lower tranches of middle management there will be more and more hands-on technical-track leaders.
Students cannot already file grievances. Grievance procedures are part of a contract, and many, if not all, non-unionized grad workers work without a contract, and if they do have a grievance procedure, they are often only through university-run venues where they do not receive independent representation.

I believe you, I just don’t think it’s realistic for the general population.

I am a very honest person (I have a terrible and fierce shame response when I lie). But, I tried to measure it once. I recorded everything that I said for several days with a truth level. I was deceptive more often than I thought I was.

For an example, do you not ever get the question, “What are you thinking about?” when your mind is off daydreaming on something potentially shameful? Maybe I just have a lot of shame. IDK.
sure you can, if you combine it with a timeout and/or a way for users to break a lock (and then of course, blocking the original user's session if he comes back anyway)

at least you don't have to wait for the timeout to expire if the user properly closed the application/website, which happens most of the time
I use tutanota after switching from Google with my custom domain back in 2018. It works great. I like the desktop and mobile apps. The improvements to the calendar have been solid enough where I am slowly migrating from a stand alone paid calendar app to it. I use cloudflare for my registrar and managing my domain records and the domain renewals are my only cost there. I pay €12 a year including taxes for just my one user account.
I set it all up once and with automatic payments and renewals a few years ago, I haven't had to mess with it since.
I really love that I can keep my wildcard domain inbound and use that to manage newsletters and various email services.
Not sure about Kyiv, but here in Vilnius the elephant in the room is parking enforcement. Illegal parking under no-parking signs, blocking sidestreets by leaving minimal space to pass, on the grass, in basketball courts, playgrounds... Municipality doesn't give a fuck. People don't buy parking spots since hey, free parking out in the street! And developers build little parking since nobody buys. But everybody still drives and surroundings are a mess.
It works in KDE, just as another data point.
Didn't California stop companies from preventing their ex-employees from working for competitors?

Sounds like they're doing exactly what you want.

Sure it's not great but you have to understand that police in the US like to shoot people. Though they generally are happy to shoot anyone, there is a higher incidence of incidents with black colored folks, so they are necessarily more afraid of cops.

I am white but was almost killed by the LAPD in 2011 so anecdotally I can tell you, the evil cops don't really focus on color - it's more about power.
This could be a hormonal imbalance, such as your thyroid. Most people (eventually) react positively to such lifestyle changes, unless your biological machinery is off the rails.
Exactly - the odds that a black swan event causes massive supply chain disruptions so you can't buy groceries is slim, so there's no need to worry about having emergency supplies. It's foolproof.
> At some point during that process, you'll have to take away space from cars.

Why couldn't you just build transit that's above or below the existing space for cars instead? Sure it might be more expensive or difficult to do, but at least it wouldn't be making people's lives worse the whole time.
> whoever actually takes your money be it affirm or walmart has no right to be paid if the goods aren't delivered

This is 100% not true for third party creditors, at least in the US. They do have a right to be paid, regardless of the services you purchased with that credit.

The only reason that you can dispute your credit card transactions is because congress passed a law specifically requiring this process: https://www.ftc.gov/legal-library/browse/statutes/fair-credi...

This and similar carveouts notwithstanding, any loan you take out, you are required repay, regardless of the experience with the seller.

You are correct that it is inconvenient when you obtain loans with poor conflict resolution processes. However, this does not negate your legal responsibility to pay those creditors. This is why laws like the FCBA were passed.

> It would make little sense for chase to expect to be paid $500,000 for a house it turned out the seller had no right to sell or $50,000 for a car that was never delivered due to mischance. In both cases even though you had agreed to borrow that money the transaction would be unwound and not merely by you. This unwinding in case of a failure by merchant to deliver product financed is an expected part of such an interaction in part because such transactions almost always concern a great deal of money.

This might surprise you, but in the US, you are still legally required to pay your loans in both of those circumstances. This is the entire purpose of products like title insurance. The bottom line is that the bank is not culpable for other people's misdeeds.

In a circumstance where you spend $500,000 on a house that could not legally be sold to you, you would have to take the seller to court to recover that money so that you could pay back the loan. Or, more commonly, you'd contact your title insurance company for recovery, because your bank likely required that you bought title insurance for this exact reason.

There is no level of inconvenience that makes a bank legally liable for something that someone else did wrong.
You are assuming that wages represent 100% of costs when its more apt to be 30%. You are assuming that all employees are full time when in fact the minority often are. Lastly you are assuming that people will be paid 20% more for working 20% less. They would be making 25% more 5/4 not 4/5. For example 100 for working 5 hours is 20 100 for working 4 hours is 25. Those errors corrected lets blow through a hypothetical.

A shop that employs 40% of its folks full time will have to hire a ~10% (25% not 20%) bigger workforce in order to provide an identical number of labor hours. However labor costs while they are substantial aren't 100% of costs. It would be more normal for employee labor to be closer to 30%.

This means costs ought to increase more like 3% not 20%.

Businesses can take the additional profits from rising prices in fact only partially attributable to rising prices of inputs and probably come out even.

It ought to be noted that its also possible that many firms can't all hire 10% more labor making paying the overtime rate for some of its people the only feasible alternative to serving business. Paying 8 hours of overtime for a given employee is like paying for an extra 4 hours of pay or once again 10% of effected employees minus the additional cost of acquisition and management. This may end up being the desirable option.
I'll second this advice.

Public transit is not slow and shitty in The Netherlands.
It depends on the location. Here's a business owner whose situation really is special:

https://www.stuff.co.nz/manawatu-standard/news/300528260/roa...

But even so, the business owners losing business shouldn't matter at all for such decisions. Business only exist to serve their customers. If customers don't want or need them, then they should disappear. The real concern is whether customers do still want shops there but are unable to access them because of lack of parking.

I want to see PICU attendings at academic universities unionize. Some of their schedules should be illegal. 14-16 7-day shifts a year, one of those Fri, Sat, Sun shifts they work from 7am through their shift the next day which means Fri and Sat are approximately 7am-4pm the next day with NO guaranteed sleep. They also have other random night shifts throughout the year for a total of 35 or so overnight shifts, but those start at 4pm.

Those ~33 hour shifts should be illegal
Yes, thank you, that was my intended meaning.

Most of programming is having encountered a problem before and experience in how it was dealt with. When you do this enough number of times in a narrow enough domain, you're on the right path.

Like with everything else, the choices you make define you. As ageist as this industry is, depth, if you choose the tech right, might help you reap better monetary rewards than breath (of your skillset). If you play it proper, depth is how you optimize for lower stress and higher gains, imo.
Ah ok. I didn’t realize Europe was built like places like Houston, LA, and Atlanta and everybody took cars everywhere, they did the whole 2hr car commute to the office, and they didn’t walk to the grocery store in their neighborhood and instead they all got in their big SUVs (which they own at least 2 of of course) to the local grocery store about a mile away with the huge parking lot. It’s a small wonder that Europeans can even afford to do this, given how expensive gas is compared to America.
Its actually interesting to read about housing in the Soviet block. Housing was a right, but in reality long waiting lists, multi generations in cramped apartments and lots of dense blocks. But it kinda worked. I'm not sure how private stand alone housing was allocated.
I just got an ebike with the intention of riding to and from work. So far I have chosen not to do it for the 5 work days I’ve had the bike:

Weather is an issue: what do bike only people do when it is raining? Cold?

First couple days it was still dark when I was about to head out… I’m hoping that goes away soon.

I’ve misplaced my bike lock keys so I need to get a new one if I want to ride anywhere else.

Even if roads were changed tomorrow to be 100% bike friendly, at least 80% of my car trips are too distant to bike without a major shift in my schedule. And that is with most of my long trips cut off since Covid.

The electric motor does help with arriving super sweaty and some of the safety issues, but there are quite a few problems won’t be solved by removing some parking and nicer bike lanes.
Outside of necessary repairs or maintenance, you can legally refuse unwanted visits from the landlord to the apartment you are paying rent for.

Story time: A couple of years ago, I was looking to buy an apartment and saw one spacious apartment centrally located that was way below market price but had no pictures in the ad. I called the agent and asked when can I visit as soon as possible since there's no pictures. Agent said the old lady currently renting it does not allow visitors inside, that's why there's no pictures. I asked how in the world can you buy an apartment without seeing it? Agent said that's why the owner is selling it below market price. And the charry on top, if you do buy it, you'll be forced by law to keep the current tenant who's paying frozen rent, not adjusted for the past 20 years, until she either decides to levees voluntarily or dies. That's why the owner had to sell below market.
Single occupancy vehicles take away my choice to bike safely in downtown Manhattan because most of the available space is dedicated to oversized cars.
You might want to investigate Gemini. It appears to be one response to the case you are presenting. It starts at the protocol level and they are starting to build up an ecosystem of servers and clients which are more hypertext focused (No JS, limitations on content-types, etc...).

I believe the name Gemini was chosen to imply a middle-ground between Gopher and HTTP (Gemini was the NASA project between Mercury and Apollo).
