Stocks would be an obvious point of comparison. They’re down but real estate prices remain up.

The argument for overvalued housing is that everyone got antsy during the pandemic and wanted to change houses and change neighborhoods, but that will settle down now that the pandemic is waning.

Tech stocks seem to be falling because the pandemic-driven surge of screen time is fading now that the pandemic is waning.

So: is real estate entirely different from stocks? Or will it see a similar post-pandemic slump but just has more lag?
I believe that m1 is what changed. m2 involves adding m1, so the formula changed, but if you break it down it did not.

Renting is not an entirely separate market... renting is an alternative to buying, and their markets are linked.

"Housing" is the market, and renting and buying are two options for people in the market.
So this is not entirely correct. If I am not mistaken 30% of buyers are cash buyers, hence they do not care about the mortgage rate.

Second, the big issues is with houses supply. The high rate basically lock most current sellers which have very low mortgage rate (compared to 5%), hence reducing the supply more.

I know this is a tangent but it’s always sad to see representation treated as inherently political. Like this is the first time in my life I’ve ever seen mainstream shows portray wlw relationships. Or shows portray the reality of how common and casual sexual assault is. Or characters that that struggle with depression as more than just an emo/goth archetype.

I get that in some ways people tune into media to escape from all that but they become a comfort when they show your struggles and it turns out okay in the end.
You don't know that. The German museum it was in was built in the 1840s, a hundred years before this sculpture was looted from it. It may well have been legally purchased a century or more before nazis existed.
Vernor Vinge's work is amazing. In the story "A fire upon the deep" he introduces the most amazing concepts, and there's a realistic way that an AI reboots itself after being in cold storage, there's a Usenet communication between civilizations, and the most impressive was an idea that there's regions in the universe where the speed of light is faster and brains work at a higher rate. It's an amazing work. Later he comes up with the prescient "focus factor" in the sequel.

Housing is a notoriously illiquid asset with high transaction costs. In addition, the percent that turns over each year is an incredibly small percent of all homes (and homes aren’t fungible, each one is unique, so comparables are imperfect).

That makes price discovery harder and means that the market price can lag what is a sustainable long-term price.

Part of the problem is that there's no real negative feedback in a government project. I've been attached to government work in the past, and the whims of the PMs change day to day because the people there were often just promoted to get them out of the way of another team.

There's no real leadership or technical ownership of the product, and I've found that the PMs will often just quickly blame the user for not using the software correctly rather than actually reflecting on why they may be getting that feedback.

The consultants may have fucked up, but they were only able to because the people in charge fucked up first.

It's interesting that you refer to the thieves as 'ancestors', but yet refer to those who were stolen from only in terms of "country", which then conveniently allows you to dismiss restitution based on a technicality ('the country doesn't exist anymore). Do the people who had their possession stolen not have existing ancestors too?

I've been doing repl-driven development with Common Lisp compilers for about 33 years now. I have never ever worked in the way that you describe, and have never witnessed anyone else working that way, either.

It would be a nightmare for maintainability if anyone worked that way, but if they do, I haven't ever seen it.

I do write the state of the runtime to image files from time to time for various purposes. I assure you, though, that all the code I write lives in files that are maintained under revision control, and it's been that way for many years, and in all that time I've never been in danger of losing any work because of forgetting to write an image file.
I am shocked people today has to pay so much, do so much in order to get a non-blurry font. And even then you still can not get a consistent result.

In fact all you need to do is to have a good bitmap font. You can get a non blurry font even on 48ppi.

Not untrue, but the post doesn’t mention prior work, so it’s implying that Rust is one of the only languages that has these features, whereas even C++ (notorious for being unsafe) as a majority of the features (in Clang). Clang can even catch many data race issues with the proper annotations. Maybe it’s ignorance, but given how posts proselytizing Rust tend to get popular on HN, it makes me suspicious that the omission was intentional.
Price/area is a flawed metric. People are not only buying square feet but also houses they can live in and houses with a certain number of bedrooms and other features. A better model would assign a part of the price to a 0-room 0 square feet house, a part of it to each room, and only a part to the size of the house.

The biggest affordability issue I see is that nobody builds starter homes for sale. In most areas, you can easily find a small 1br or 2br apartment to rent, but you can't buy a similar apartment. If you have to continue renting for years after you have settled down, because you can't buy anything smaller than 1000 square feet, it's harder to afford buying that 1000+ square foot house.
In your case only if there's a topic you'd like to spend your time researching and writing a thesis on. Doesn't have to be cutting edge though, there's plenty of value in iterative improvements.

You are fine dude, you didn't delete any videos, only high availability cache of videos on a streaming site. If that was your master copy, you probably would have taken greater care, if not :-). Anyway, when working with caches that can be recreated in reasonable time, it's normal to take less care than when it comes to originals.

The only concern is Google Drive as the only backup, please make sure you have a local copy on a local RAID drive and another one regularly archived and stored in a bank locker.

I think there's a more concrete measure of value: house prices related to income. Historically (Robert Shiller has a chart for the US going back to 1890) house prices (and mortgages and rents) have maintained a stable relationship with income. Occasionally that relationship is strained but it has usually fallen back in line. One exception to this was the extraordinary, ongoing, support to the financial system post-2008. House prices and other financial assets have ballooned in relative proportion to wage income. That's more than a perception of value, that's a matter of social stability as most people depend on the same paycheck for not only housing but food, medicine, etc, as well as housing.

No...average is always average, median is always median. Newspapers often mislabel the numbers they are reporting, but the distinction is always made clear in the data. See:

> The average annual wage in 2019 in the US was $51,916.27, and the median annual wage was $34,248.45. The median wage is the wage “in the middle,” while average refers to the measure of central tendency for all the data.

When they can't be bothered to remove malware accounts like the node-ipc dudebro, but then claim they need a phone number from me to keep logged in for "security" ... I'll just leave.

> you employ consultants and commercial providers to do this sort of work based on the fact they have skills you don’t

The irony is, it's nearly exactly backwards.

I have literally never seen effective use of consultants and outsourced work like this except in one situation: where you DO have the internal skills. Pretty much the only way to get any value is when you have highly knowledgeable and skilled people with strong engineering background managing the process.

Of course, convincing highly skilled engineers that it's a valuable use of their skills and time to simply manage a bunch of outsourced consultants when they could be directly managing a team somewhere else is a challenge in itself.

The Moodys analysis, as I understand it, is house prices relative to median incomes in a market.

I don’t think it’s a fluke that the overvalued markets correlate to regions that a lot of tech has moved over the pandemic like Boise, FL, TX and Nashville.

If they’re measuring current house prices to 2020 and 2021 tax data then they may be missing an influx of income in the denominator as well.
It seems to me that any burden of proof would lie with the manufacturer, who must convince the consumer. When one consumer says "it works" and another consumer says "it doesn't work", then we're outside the usual burden-of-proof social dictates and we have to adopt new rules. Such as, I propose, both people need to bring evidence or expect to convince no one.
So maybe she emails the museum and says "pick it up." And then a week later a guy shows up on her doorstep and says "I'm here to pick it up." How does she know the guy really works for the museum and is not some criminal who hacked into her email? She's never met him, and he's not going to be carrying an FBI badge after all. If she gives the bust to the wrong guy, maybe the museum sues her because it was their property in the first place.

There are well-established legal procedures to deal with matters like identity verification, and lawyers can handle them. That's one reason why she needs a lawyer.

I think there's a lot of strawmen here, many quite analogous to those used to (unfairly IMO) criticize OCaml itself.

Complaining about sexprs, when one's baseline is the completely ad-hoc nature of go.mod files, or cargo toml files, is pretty silly. Further, sexprs are a very common general-purpose serialization path for OCaml values, so dune's selection here is hardly arbitrary.

Yes, `dune build`, `dune runtest`, and `dune exec ...` do "work", i.e. each command has its semantics, which are pretty extensively documented IMO. Is the complaint that they're not the same commands that one uses with cargo or whatever?

You're right that opam and dune used to not interoperate much (or at all), but that has changed a lot in the last year or so, to the point that, _if you want_, you don't have to write opam files at all (i.e. they'll be generated from metadata in your `dune-project` file). Again, well documented, at least IMO: https://dune.readthedocs.io/en/stable/opam.html

The "lockfile situation" is pretty good AFAICT. I've been using them for a year+ with good / expected results.

You're right about `dune init` not doing the right things. I believe that's been resolved very recently IIRC, but then again, I can't recall the last language/build tool I used init-like functionality with; I almost always just copy over config/structure from another project I've worked on, and tweak from there.

There are absolutely real critiques of dune, but "it's not cargo" or whatever is silly.

Why should anything beyond facile acknowledgement be expected from the average person when it comes to appreciating artifacts that still exist on our planet?

It's clearly just a missing index (or indexes) somewhere.

The guy explained that it has been "slowly getting worse" over many years, which is what you'd expect if there's table scans going on over a steadily growing volume of data.

IMHO, this is such as prevalent problem that it's the pandemic disease of SQL databases. They really should have indexing on by default for most columns, with the option of disabling unused indexes (perhaps even automatically).

Instead what happens is that 90-95% of all databases are 2-5 orders of magnitude slower than they ought to be, because developers are just unable to grasp these fundamental concepts. Developers haven't gotten any better at this over the last three decades. The tools have to get better to compensate instead.

PS: Almost all "no-SQL" databases are automatically or implicitly indexed. When people say that they're "much faster than SQL", I just assume that this is one of the biggest reasons. They're not inherently faster. Instead they're faster by default.
Most countries are full of land stolen from the ancestors of the people who lived there, which was then exploited by the thieves, to make them and their descendents, incredibly wealthy and powerful.

Not true. I worked for large multi-national contractor on a current Australian government project. 90% offshore "talent". Most of the time these employees actually had no previous work experience; just some training offshore and then projects on their CV were a complete fabrication. I'm assuming the contracting company does this on purpose so they can charge at a much higher rate.

The implication being that anything outside of the anodyne mainstream of cable TV must be a concerted effort to brainwash the public.

Netflix has many problems, the big ones being that they lost old shows like The Office and Friends, which hurts retention. And they also kill off promising new shows after 2 seasons to save money on renegotiating cast contracts.

If you read comment sections however, you'll get a very different idea. The problem is that Netflix is "too woke" and consumers are revolting. Never mind the fact that Netflix is a global network with millions of customers around the world, and thousands of shows from multiple countries.

> for instance the idea that coordinated hand eye movement of pointing is contributing to safety

We have a lot of human factors research showing that proper checklist use involves pointing (and ideally vocalization of the checklist item), resulting in a significant reduction of inadvertent omissions.

It's just way too easy to accidentally get into the rhythm of saying checklist items without doing them, and having to point keeps your attention focused on the item.

Finger-on-instrument-to-point is becoming very common in air transport. It's not universal in rail culture in countries other than Japan, but would probably further reduce errors (as you point out, rail is already very, very safe at baseline).
