Back then, Democrats and Republicans alike could be comfortably racist; one might wonder if black folks even got to take the survey. But two things happened, one is the civil rights movement which made people less racist. (yay!) and the other is the radicalization of the Republican party.

Today, Democrat/Republican is a much better proxy/predictor for -- well, let's be PC here and say, potential matches. It's not a bad predictor (and before someone says some nonsense comparing this to prejudice, political party is 100% a choice and nothing like racial discrimination.)

> I should be ruinously taxed

I don't know where you are getting that it would be a ruinous tax. It should also be offset by not having other types of taxes in a pure Georgian system.

Why do you think land taxes would be ruinous? The only single family home owners who would see major tax increases are those in markets like the Bay Area - many of whom are already paying well below what they would nearly anywhere else in the country due to their legislatively capped house value.

I also find the morality argument interesting, as land has some unique attributes as an economic good that one could use to make very convincing arguments for the immorality of land ownership itself.

But surely we can deduce that property taxes are _more_ immoral than a land value tax. With both, you do have to pay more when the wealthy decide your area is valuable. (Leave aside for the moment the argument that some Georgists will argue this is less likely in a world with LVT). But only with property tax are you taxed _more_ when you spend your own money to improve your own property. Property tax directly disincentivizes making the most of your own land, because it taxes the improvements to it.

Land Value Tax is like taking property tax and removing the worst element of it. At least personally I think it moves the needle from "a very bad idea" to more in the realm of a necessary evil.

If used to elect something like a president, yeah, that could be problematic. But if used to elect a legislative body then its not really a problem.

> the way Heroku worked…

The author implies that something has changed — and that nowadays, you can’t `git push heroku main`. But according to the docs, it’s still just as simple.

I guess I don’t understand how Heroku’s DevEx has changed. Seems just as intuitive as it’s always been. But I could be missing something.

Vitest is great for running unit tests, but for component testing I still think running in a real browser and using visual snapshots & diffs is preferable to dom snapshots & diffs in a fake browser env like node + jsdom.

It's not just the fact that jsdom doesn't fully support all browser APIs, but components are building blocks for a primarily visual medium, so being able to build and debug my component tests visually has been a complete game changer when it comes to productivity.

I think the very reasonable counterpoint to that is browser tests are slow to run, to the point that it's infeasible to run locally at scale. That's why for https://reflame.app, I've been building a testing strategy around using serverless compute to run browser component tests with maximum parallelization for a tight feedback loop that takes ~5s for a cold start and 1~2s thereafter, with dependency analysis to rerun only tests that could have changed to keep cost scaling under control.

Like some already said, WordPress also paid for a lot of things in my life. And recently I was on a 3 year hiatus from the platform because of real life situation.

Having been back on the saddle for the last 7 months, I do agree that FSE is an overly ambitious project that might take further 5 years to get it right. I don’t necessarily dislike it, though it doesn’t bother me either. If I want a site builder I will just use one of the established plugins.

I am more annoyed that the work being done on the actual content editor is subpar at best. Some core issues that still plague it are back to top clipping, slow performance of loading media, and extremely poor integration with block plugins.

But even with all the glaring issues, WordPress will remain a top choice for years to come. It’s so easy to get the site to do you want without needing to hire an agency that will leave a dent in your budget.

One issue with georgism is that it significantly penalizes Urbanization and productivity that goes with it. People are incentivized to spread out and live on less costly land and take a hit to their income or less lucrative jobs.

> Power never falls into a state where the majority party can stay in control.

That usually only happens when power gained by elections is used to change the system, often outside of the formal rules of change. Obviously, no election system can safeguard against this, since it is an effect outside of the electoral system.

Only one vote counts. This is literally the textbook example of a system than fails the non-dictatorship criterion.

Well, again, since only one vote matters, it's only an extreme minority of votes that matters, but it's extremely unlikely to be one from an extreme minority position.

The word "worked" could just as well be "works" (present tense) because Heroku still works exactly as the author describes (I think the author is recounting how it worked when they were there, hence why they use past tense).
Sure, approval voting is easy if you don't care about making effective use of your vote.

If you want to make effective use of your vote, you've got to make calls about supporting you people you dislike, but don't dislike as much as the other guy.
"Post-secondary education is more about signalling than learning."

Have to disagree. There's a tremendous amount you could learn at a university (depending on the school, and the student, of course).

I've read many threads on HN where people (like myself) who had it easy in high school because we were naturally bright suddenly had to struggle tremendously at university because we hadn't learned how to study in high school, or because we were suddenly among many others who were as smart as ourselves and couldn't just coast.

The usefulness of what you learn will vary from school to school, subject to subject, and teacher to teacher. Simply getting access to talented teachers who are successful in their fields can be invaluable. Clubs and extracurricular activities could be important too, as can networking and friendships you strike up in school.

It's fashionable to bash universities these days[1], but you're really not going to get this stuff from books or videos. Not to mention the structure and motivation that classes and deadlines provide.

That said, I think a lot of students aren't ready for university right after coming out of high school. I know I got a lot more out of it when I came back to finish my degree as an adult, when I was far more motivated, mature, knew what I wanted to get out of school and how to get it.

Something I miss in particular about Heroku's git-push-to-deploy experience is that you'd know whether the build/deploy succeeded by the time the push finished.

Hmm. This is interesting because I've always wondered about using mathematics to generate a "gerrymandering-ness metric" from a given population/boundary distribution. The idea being that instead of having the supreme court scratch their heads wondering if a boundary assignment was unfair, you could just compute the metric.

But this article seems to imply that this metric can't exist.

Ok so now I wonder about the corollary: use an algorithm to generate the boundaries. If the article has a proof that all boundary assignments are unfair, then presumably an algorithmic boundary generator can be made to be randomly unfair one way or the other, balancing out the unfairness overall.

This is maybe true for the landowner, but it's much less true for the renter. Since land is more available (due to fewer underproductive uses), you can expect more competition to put renters in land efficient configurations (high rises) in the densest cities.

> Only one vote counts. This is literally the textbook example of a system than fails the non-dictatorship criterion.

This depends on how you state the non-dictatorship criterion. Wikipedia's discussion refers to a "single pre-determined person's preferences." But since the dictator is selected randomly, they aren't pre-determined.

Further, every vote counts in the sense that every additional vote for a candidate increases the odds of them winning the election. The candidate has an incentive to get additional votes no matter how many votes they currently have. You don't have the situation where its futile to vote because the outcome isn't going to be close.

California used to have actual moderate republicans. Yes even in the Bay Area. Over time those guys retired. The voters moved left a little.
