That's a very cherry-picked statistic seemingly brought in to distract from the discussion.

Many states that are both more and less "popular" than CA have lower high school graduation rates than CA. Places like Colorado, Wyoming, Arizona, Louisiana, Maryland, Alaska.

The GP was clearly talking about problems like housing unaffordability, traffic, displacement, water scarcity, etc.

Python's default arguments are evaluated and stored once. This can cause issues, for example the naive "default to []" program:

>>> def function(b, a=[]):
... a.append(b)
... print(a)
...
...
>>> function(1)
[1]
>>> function(2)
[1, 2]
>>> function(3, [4])
[4, 3]
>>> function(5)
[1, 2, 5]

A correct implementation would be:

>>> def function2(b, a=None):
... if a is None: a = []
... a.append(b)
... print(a)
I've watching some municipalities hit their geographic constraints in a few different states for a while now, and what I think I've noticed is that almost nobody gets higher density construction ahead of demand -- if there is anywhere that actually has "sane housing policy", it probably overlaps with places that have had demand outstrip supply for over a hundred years.

A good chunk of the rest of America is used to being rural, semi-rural, or suburban. Especially places that saw most of their growth since automobiles became household near-essentials. Those places tends towards single family residential zoning too and are either seeing California-like sprawl or California-like price increases. Especially to the degree that market dynamics involve as much asset-first treatment of real estate as housing-first treatment.

But I'd certainly love to hear about places that represent successful exceptions. Especially if they beat certain dynamics where construction also naturally follows demand (capital usually prefers to follow demand rather than lead it).

If you're a man, you have no right to have an opinion about abortion. Only a woman can truly understand what it means to be pregnant, to give birth, to bring a new life into being. A man might have a possessive, proprietary attitude about it, but it's a removed and intellectual understanding at best. A woman understands it from her gut, from her body.

To hear men pontificating about how women should behave is ludicrous, and sad.
You cannot use a single UI thread in a parallel way. Its a contradictory statement. Parallel is the opposite of single threaded.

C# does have a thread pool that you can use with async/await with multiple threads but that would be different from a UI thread or its synchronization context.
>So why is this?

Probably because you're not modeling the same thing. The workers in the article are independent tasks. No communication between the two needs to be done. Employees have to communicate as a team. It worsens as you add more employees. 2 employees, 1 line of communication between them, but 3 employees and it becomes 3 lines. 4 becomes 6 lines. 5 employees becomes 10 lines. At this point you're having meetings, which everyone knows is the opposite of doing work.
This is truly one of the most bizarre comments I have ever read on this website.

Totally happens even with insects. The biotech industry started using BT genes (a fungus which takes care of corn ear worm) in GMO corn. Previously, BT was an organically approved pesticide, carefully applied by growers according to guidelines which made sure the target pest did not develop resistance. But with the genes making the nasties continually = BT all the time = excellent evolutionary driver = cases of resistant corn ear worm appearing.

(1) Draw a circle of distance-radius around your location. (2) Go north that distance and repeat the process. (3) Return to origin, go east and repeat. If you are lucky, the three circles intersect at your target location. (4) If there is abuity (two answers) or imprecision, perform a south and west measurement too.
Obviously "a jungle with no people" is ridiculous hyperbole. They've tried a few minor things without reforming the cultural issues that have contributed to the decline in births. What difference does it make if the people they bring in aren't ethnicity Japanese? Are you concerned that the Japanese will die out like an endangered species? On a long enough timeline, all ethnicities are doomed, but there's no genuine concern that that will happen to the japanese any time soon.
The first big anti-GMO push was against the transgenic Flavr Savr tomato. It's unfortunate that pesticide resistance is conflated with other potential applications.

Abortions aren't suddenly outlawed nation wide.

This just says it's not the purview of the federal government. It's an issue for states to decide for themselves.

Human societies have relied on eye-witness testimony since Cain and Abel. Sure, you can study it and discover that humans are unreliable (film at 11!) but it's silly to think that we are going to have trials and testimony and leave out eye witnesses. What's important about our trial system and juries-of-peers is that the average person feels the system is doing its best to find the truth so that it's not necessary to form vigilantes. Our system is overall pretty good, better than asking all the people who show up at a crime scene or later to protest.

He claims to have received a visit from the DHS about his other video on police brutality called "America's Police Problem", months before the CIA video situation.

Yes, he doesn't offer evidence the DHS visited him, but I don't see which evidence he could have on that, if you know please share with us. As it stands I don't see any reason to call BS from the start, it seems to fit the DHS's MO, I don't see what's unbelievable about it.

On his video on the CIA, I've never seen another case of a YouTube video showing three content warnings (on Android) before letting you watch it. How directly involved the American government is on it is anyone's guess, it's probably a more systematic action from YouTube, but I wouldn't doubt the government directly requested to not promote it in any way.
>you take on all the complexities of threads

Well no, not _all_ of the complexities because you have await and explicit yielding. It's much easier to pass data from one asynchronous task to another using await than it is to, say, manually code the locks or state machine necessary for the message passing and/or callbacks.
Their yields go even higher. It is also a matter of being able to use cheaper broad spectrum herbicides like glyphosate rather than something that is more expensive but won't kill an unaltered crop.
Surely the underlying point is their ability to raise public sector debt to fund activity, the tax powers, and the lack of any need to worry? This is historically some of the lowest cost-of-borrowing there will ever be. Splashing cash now, is significantly cheaper than it ever will be.

Do you think the evil masterminds in the fed don't want CA to spend money? because its enough of the US economy at scale, what CA does, ultimately affects the USD overall.
Yep and that's also the source of the footgun:

def foobar(my_list=[]):
my_list.append(42)

A cursory glance suggests this function appends a number to an empty list every time it's run. But actually, the default argument is evaluated once when the function is defined, so calling this function repeatedly will continue to append to that same list.

Hear hear.

Dodging an issue tracker is, IMO, one of the clear benefits of TODOs (or FIXME, HACK, BUG, and family). Especially in low-trust teams or whenever there's a need to avoid the sorts of politics that can arise between roles.

Refactoring tickets are terrible for all the reasons you point out. PMs will essentially never prioritize refactor work over new features unless pressured to, and if so, the work more often than not gets assigned to newer hires and junior devs, whereas a TODO is actually more likely to get picked up by a curious and intrepid newcomer when they're actually ready for it. Should said newcomer stumble across it before they are ready, it can also be a signal that they ought to reach out to a more experienced developer to ask some questions. For devs, refactor tickets may be useless overhead: in time spent writing, time spent defending, time spent estimating, etc. And in return, there's little glory or praise achieved in working on them; tracking too much time on refactor tickets may even attract negative attention from management. Then good luck if your QAs and agile leads are suspicious of any unit of work that a new test plan can't be written for.

A good TODO is sometimes just how the sausage is made.
eh, there are things that shouldn't be up for debate just because a majority of people wish it to be so. the issue is "what is a right and what isn't"

> The reality is that this won't stop abortion, just safe abortions

I think that's probably incorrect. People respond to incentives.

The evidence that I know of for that assertion comes from studies which are poorly done and biased. The methodology is to compare the rate of the abortion in places with different legal frameworks for it. The main problem is that it is hard to estimate the prevalence of an illegal activity.

Additionally, some of the places they put in the "not legal" category tend to be poor places in which rule of law is much less important than the US. (So you can't expect similar laws to have similar effects)

That is an amusingly low standard.
What do you mean by this? Async/await provides a standard way to handle message passing between threads, a cleaner syntax than nested callbacks and a lot of other niceties over raw threading.

Async/await is in many single and multi-threaded languages so I'm not clear on what you're saying.
People like people who are like themselves, or are like who they want to be. It’s like docking a spaceship, you’ve got to reflect some of the other person, but not too much, and narrow into their groove. There you’ll find a relationship you can both work with.
Right now, I just use TODO along with a description. But the thing that has helped me and my teams most is adding a date and a name to each todo. For example, // TODO (03 May 2022 chap): This can be optimised.

The date really helps because many times the TODO was written for an earlier design, and the todos haven't been updated. Many times a lot of time has been saved when trying to figure out the context of a todo.

Same for author. Helps to know who made the note, in case any additional context is needed. Though often it is you who made the comment and you've obviously forgotten...

Perhaps you should...relax. You and the person you're responding to are having a miscommunication. It happens. No one is making any statement about your integrity.

Also, perhaps you should take a better look at the comment tree. My original request for a citation was levied against the commenter speculating that "this was made up to stop it from getting banned entirely like it is in Asia"

So really, maybe go get some fresh air. It's just a discussion on the internet, it's not worth getting worked up over.

My car (2014) has seven or so different CAN busses, with a gateway in between. Whether that constitutes a different "network" or not can be argued, but at least something that brings the entertainment CAN bus down, be it just by e.g. shorting it, won't (easily) bring down the other busses.

That's an egregious argument. It's like saying if you are not a Ukrainian (or Russian), you don't get to have an opinion about the conflict.
Ah. deficit funding forbidden, is the bit (non US resident) I didn't know. So they have to bank locally sourced "wealth" to spread out when times are harder? then I guess they have to live inside the rules.

Where I live, the states accrue a lot of public sector debt, and nobody cares. Qld is carrying $105b of debt, rising to $125b by 2025. This is outside of federal public sector debt, theres a huge royalty income, and state tax raising powers as well as a GST/VAT national settlement, so its pretty well understood income exists to cover the debt.
