It IS an interesting question. But you should simply upvote it, if you have nothing at all to add.
Arguments of the form "X has been a thing since Y" are one of the reasons we're shit at progress. Lots of shit things have been happening for a while - how is that an argument in their support?
Not to press this point too hard, but "no more than $3,000 per can" is still ridiculous. They're $175 apiece here[1].

I can understand spending $20,000 (or even $60,000) on the pilot designs. But TFA makes it sound like the city was billed $20,000 just to fabricate it.

Edit: Updated the link to a better article.

The stock of office buildings probably turns over fairly slowly. I've actually never worked in an office where the windows opened.
So you can totally "hide a body" but using %s with homicide is a bit unclear as homicide is less that 100, so the 2.9% drop is only a difference from 34 down to 33.

Strange New Worlds is very good. The story arc about the medical officer who kept his daughter in the transporter buffer was awesome and reminded me of TnG while Gene Roddenberry was still around.
Maybe time to rethink the way fines are determined.

I’d be very much in favour of the “swiss model” for traffic fines - based on your income.

You did X wrong, here’s the set price from our catalogue vs. you did X wrong and based on your earnings, here’s what you owe.
Even in a single family detached home my last neighbor was a nightmare. He was a drunk and would be loud and throw bottles into my yard and start arguments any time anyone said anything. He was a renter so eventually he got into bad terms with his landlord and she booted him. I would dread the thought of loving even closer to someone. At least I had a fence and some concept of space from him. I could only imagine the harassment living wall to wall with this guy. For me single family detached homes are not wasted space but the minimum people should strive for.
> but can it actually readjust to substantially less tax revenue with the city government + responsibilities it has now

That's the question isn't it? San Francisco has by far the highest per-capita city budget in the country. It spends more on homeless services in a year than most cities of similar size spend on everything. The city is simply addicted to spending money, and looking at the deterioration of street conditions, increase in homelessness and addiction, increase in property crime and more, they are clearly not getting its worth.

Theoretically could the city make do with a 30% budget cut year over year? It absolutely could. Columbus, Jacksonville, Indianapolis, Fort Worth, Memphis, and even San Jose and San Diego somehow survive on 1/5 - 1/10 the money despite supporting similar sized populations. It remains to be seen whether San Francisco can make the correct cuts and not drive away the remaining tax generating citizens and companies.

California already has a law on the books that salary ranges must be provided "upon request". This would just make it more upfront, similar to Colorado's law.

Looking at that link murders are down from 34 to 33, not exactly stunning success. Especially if a murder is ruled something else.
It's a good question and how we "did" it in the past might need to be investigated.

House prices and appreciation were basically the same throughout the US until something like the 1950s, when places like CA began to far outstrip other parts of the country. I don't think that CA became a desirable place to live suddenly in the 50s, but perhaps it did?
These are all small problems compared to the pension system exploding.
I don't have a lot of sympathy for VISA in this case. They have taken it upon themselves to regulate non-illegal activity by pressuring sites like Patreon to ban users expressing controversial views and by dictating to sites like Only Fans what is and isn't acceptable to them rather than what is and isn't illegal.

It should be illegal for them to continue to facilitate illegal activity once they are made aware of it. For everything else they should stay out of it and be a neutral payment provider treating all legal transactions and customers equally. Until they start advocating for that it seems like they just want it both ways.
You're making two relatively-unrelated claims. One, that Facebook--a wildly profitable publicly-traded company--is run as a political machine. Two, that its employees bear moral culpability.

The first claim is extraordinary. Is Facebook's leadership powerful? Of course. Do they have undue influence in the U.S.? Probably not. If anything, their government affairs unit is laughably incapable of keeping its client from being a perennial political punching bag.

The second claim has more substance. It's becoming increasingly common, at least in regulatory and political circles, to hear calls for holding individual employees responsible for Facebook's actions.
I still don’t understand why so many people seem to talk about replacing SQL. It’s not complicated, can be learned in a few hours, it’s relatively easy to read and it fairly portable across databases and stacks.

Florida could be a real option vs SF but not with Fascists in charge.
For everyone that lives in San Francisco: the only way we'll be able to fix our city is if we get involved. That means voting and donating to pro-growth and pro-competence political groups.

That's why a4agarwal (https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=a4agarwal) and I started GrowSF — we can build a better city, but only if the tech industry supports pro-growth policies and elected officials.

It really seems like the perfect storm. Hopefully other folks like NASA will get comfortable jumping on the RISC train now that their only option isn't licensing from ARM.
There was a big uproar when it came out, they would accept donations on behalf of creators even if those creators had never made any kind of contract with them. Not sure if they still do that but it's pretty sketchy behavior to take money on behalf of someone you've never talked to and probably doesn't want you taking money for them. Especially people that already have actual donation methods.
> transfer money relatively anonymously nowadays

Monero and that's pretty much it

Russian banks are managing deposits in etherium, and if you want you could send money over in alt-coins, bounce it around through other alt coins some and then retrieve it elsewhere, issue is that you will lose a fair bit on the exchanges with the rates, transaction fees etc

Also, you will need atleast a visa/mastercard internationally enabled card associated to a bank to your name to do any of that. Do that, or buy it personally/insitu from someone
My understanding is that that is the rule in most states. Is where I live. I don't know about CA.

Its scripting engine for running commands sent from the ground is based on Javascript. So all the important stuff is done in native code, but the orders are taken in JS.
Ever observe a certain level of intense personal drama in real life where people start getting unhinged and start getting into the slashing tires, keying cars, jumping the other with a weapon, or setting others' property on fire phase of conflict? You have 2 sets of friends both telling you that the other side did X,Y,Z because they're evil and insane. You can sort of parcel out the gist of what might have happened with enough investigation, but ultimately you weren't there and making a concrete decision on whose fault the drama was involves making a judgement call after talking to friends who are all biased about what happened and knowing that each side is trying to be persuasive towards their side.

That's sort of where I am stuck right now.

Wikipedia and the mainstream news sources it links to are absolutely not trustworthy, unbiased sources or interpreters about anything like this event. Asking me to look at Wikipedia links for the best objective interpretation of this mess would be like asking me to ask the best friend of a jilted lover in the middle of intense personal drama and assuming that I'm getting a purely accurate portrayal of events.

I'm not claiming any sort of moral high ground here. I'm only claiming 2 things.

1) Ignorance about Kiwifarms. I never followed that drama to begin with or knew about that site's culture and activity. Maybe they're very guilty, I just can't prove that with what I know.

2) Wikipedia and the media are horrendously awful sources for this kind of drama.

Please note: I'm not claiming Kiwifarms is innocent here. I acknowledge that they could be very guilty. I think it's reasonable to guess that they probably are. I just can't reasonably make a concrete judgement like that without seeing first-hand info in context that illustrates this clearly.

It's an important detail to me that the Kiwifarms site is down and can't really be researched very fully outside of perhaps some Archived links. And even if the site was up, you'd miss out on what was deleted by admins or not in real-time...which is very important to this case. Was Kiwifarms trying to remove illegal content? It's hard to say after the fact with this level of drama unless you were in the middle of it and following posts and how they operated in real time.

All I'm going to do from now on is keep my eyes open and try and learn more about Kiwifarms if I come across any reasonably trustworthy looking articles that aren't obvious polemics.
I'm using AWS Code Commit for ~50GB git repos and it's practicaly free, 0.5$ per month total. Probably most of that 0.5$ comes from some other stuff, that's how cheap storage is on AWS.
Real "house price" for a given house should actually go down over time, because it gets older and worn down and just not quite as good as the new hotness.

"The study linked surgical masks with an 11% drop in risk, compared with a 5% drop for cloth."

The cloth results were statistically insignificant, meaning indistinguishable from noise. The surgical mask results barely passed the statistical significance test, but lose that significance as soon as the data are stratified by age.

On top of that, there have been numerous problems with the study that call into questions even the incredibly meager positive results it managed to show: https://www.justfactsdaily.com/famed-bangladesh-mask-study-e...

This is what some services in Germany do. All banks of course, but also my health insurance too. Also some parking app did it.

No problem! I hear you about Tor/I2P integration -- I've been following that bug/issue since it was first raised, and speaking personally, I've been an advocate for building a privacy-protective "stack" that uses existing tooling for a long time (see https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2013/08/tahoe-and-tor-building... , which was intended to be a discussion of composing existing tools together, though in retrospect seems much more Tahoe-LAFS than I meant it to be.)

It does seem harder to pull off than it at first seems though, which I think is why numerous people have bounced off it on both the IPFS and Tor sides.

I have a general theory that this is true of a lot of interoperability initiatives: they are by their nature tasks that sit on the edge of "nice to have" periphery of an existing project. Plus they often require dev unicorns -- people who are able to understand the architecture and cultures of two different development spaces.

One thing I've been talking to a few people about informally as part of my work at FFDW is to work out an institution or funding initiative that would be a wrapper around these kind of interoperability ventures more generally. Dan Lynch's INTEROP was a vital part of the early Internet's success, and I think we miss something occupying that space in our new decentralized world. We have so many amazing tools, but have so little time to make them work well together.
I wonder if Meta ever ran its own political ads, without a specific candidate paying for them. That might be one reason to obscure the advertiser. (I mean, they _definitely_ did this with generic "get out and vote" advertising, but of course that's not overtly favoring one candidate or the other.)

Up to 8k rebate for heat pumps too, which is enough to push middle class eco conscious people to spend the extra money. Although for colder climates, installs can be nearly 3x as much as nat gas, so drop in the bucket.

Also doesn't account for costs related to panel upgrades that often needs to happen in older homes to handle all these new electric appliances.
No, but deep cleaning it with a machine or replacing it are possible.

you can still use Konquerer or any old / niche browser if your site isn’t using the latest HTML/CSS features and Javascript APIs.

The issue is that webpages are incredibly complex - they can be full-scale applications - yet they are expected to run the exact same in different browsers, down to subtle implementation details. So in order to make a new browser you would basically be reinventing Chromium.

Or you could start fresh with a new language to write websites in complete with a new browser engine. I would actually love this, web design today is a huge mess with HTML / CSS / JS quirks and backwards compatibility. But you still have the literally trillions of existing websites, which you’ll have to support with Chromium or Gecko until the end of time. And more importantly, you have the 99.9% of users who are still using Chromium or Firefox and won’t be able to use your new website, so you’ll have to backwards-generate HTML/CSS/JS from your new script anyways.
Is there any evidence that Measure 101 was a pivot? My limited understanding is that drugs and craziness were pervasive and on the rise in Portland well before that. The idea that criminalization controls drug use isn't clearly supported by historical evidence at this point.

Funnily enough, I was involved in a project that did dynamically generated real-time adverts (specifically updating betting odds in real time). It crashed and burned because Facebook insisted every advert has to be reviewed and approved beforehand.
Are transwomen creators really disempowered online these days? The internet's a very different place from how it was in 2007.

Contrapoints, Gigi, Maya Henry were the first three that came to mind and from what I've seen all have wildly successful online followings, and a literal army of Twitter and Discord users to come to their defense. KF is the only site I'm aware of that bullies trans people, but I can think of loads of popular accounts and forums that happily go after Republicans, depressed single men, Christians, and any other group which the online majority has decided is deserving of abuse. I think the take "trans people have a hard time being accepted online" is pretty outdated now.
The lesson of "you get what you incentivize" seems to be lost on them.
You're right, I had absolutely no idea that you thought we were doing breast cancer screening right. And I don't know if you're now failing to communicate your awareness of regular screening for prostate and cervical cancer, or skin cancer in higher risk locations, or if that doesn't count somehow, or what. I also don't know if you have any evidence for the existence of these other tests that we could be doing on everyone and the risk-benefit profile that shows we should be doing them, or if you're assuming such tests and evidence exists, or complaining that we haven't invented the tests that must be theoretically possible.

I think the problem is decriminalization is just one half of the solution. It doesn't make the supply of drugs more available, it just removes a penalty for the people who are caught with possession.

What's worked very well in other nations is to literally supply people with as many drugs as they'd like.

The government handles the manufacture and distribution. All of it for free. In return:

1. The government knows who and how many drug users there are

2. Rehabilitation services can be provided. They may even be a requirement for someone to obtain the drugs.

3. Addicts can begin to lead a much more stable life due to a consistent supply. This has positive impacts on the society for many obvious reasons (e.g. little incentive for crime)

4. It is much easier for someone to ween off a drug if quality/supply is consistent.
