No, it is not. The state can withhold funding if they don’t fill quotas. And cities can be sued. Cities would rather pay the fine that be subjugated under the thumb of regional governance. The only reason it seems like this goat rodeo is legal is because the elected representatives are pirates and there is no local governance in California. Now that must be challenged and Sacramento must be sued for playing dictator for the entire state when not everyone voted for the clowns running the show.

This is a game of political musical chairs where they are simply creating chaos by shuffling responsibility from county to county and city to city.

If housing activist really want to create change, let them support NIMBYs request for local governance. So cities that support these mandates will get it done and NIMBYs will be powerless against majority vote.

This whole YIMBY movement is a small sliver of the population and the vocal supporters are poseurs. They only donate and support this because they want to keep moving populations to other zipcodes than their own…covert crypto NIMBYs.

California has more NIMBYs and crypto NIMBYs than YIMBYs. YIMBYs are a minority that is being played by the politicians. The rest of us suffer. If Sacramento really cared, with the billions they bilk from us in the form of taxes, everyone would have had a home. Maybe not in San Francisco or Bay Area while on welfare but everyone would have had a roof over their heads. Wake up.

Can we please be honest and at least when YIMBYs stop throwing a tantrum and realize that they are only tolerated and coddled because they are a useful vote bank, we can get some work done. None wants anyone in their backyards. Not if they paid for their homes and their taxes and mortgages.
Thank you for the replies.

are there any open source tools, forums I can look at ?
If you bypassed DOS's memory allocation, your program would stomp on TSRs, or if it was a TSR then other programs would stomp on it, so either way it would be super unreliable.

The only thing I remember ever bypassing DOS for filesystem access was things like Norton DiskEdit, unerase utilities, and defraggers. Do you have examples in mind?

(Of course lots of programs didn't use standard output.)

I agree that without hard drives you didn't really need subdirectories. It's hard to fit more than a couple of screenfuls of files on a single floppy.
"Isn’t that a coincidence", implying that all your readers know what's "coincidental" about it, which further implies that there was no point to the comment --- it was obvious all along. But, in fact: there's nothing obvious about what you want to say, which is why you should take the time to say it properly, and in detail, instead of sneering at the room. You wrote a Facebook comment, not an HN comment.

Certainly part of what pisses me off about this is that when you're writing well, you're a valuable corrective to a lot of groupthink that would otherwise go unchallenged here. Instead, you're writing stuff that anyone from the Sunrise Movement could knock down with a meme.
The point isn't that what you're saying is false, the point is that what you're saying is meaningless precisely because it can apply to literally every story.

The problem is that you only have a fixed amount of energy. If yuo use some energy to split water, then when you burn the hydrogen you get the same ammout of energy back. Moreover, some part will be lost in the conversion.
This is not how progress works. We will need much more EVs than ICEs because cost of operation is cheaper. Unless you want to be the first to give up your car, and the cars your parents own?
And that's just California. I'm part of a YIMBY Action chapter in Oregon where we're seeing wins ourselves. As the housing crisis worsens all over the country, it's not surprising that it's a political message that has legs and groups are forming all over, and starting to get some things done.

Like everything else, it's outsourced. A bunch of minimum-wage cleaners employed by a contractor at the airport come onto the plane and go through it...but that requires the plane have idle time at the gate between flights, and airlines are cutting every corner they possibly can.

The Times author, and flight attendants, seem to miss the point. I paid for a seat. I likely paid a fuckton of money for it, and I expect it to be clean such that neither I nor my clothing and belongings get dirty or become contaminated with biohazardous fluids.

Not enough turnaround time to clean? The airline didn't schedule enough time for cleaning and inspection and that is not my problem.

No equipment or supplies on the plane? The airline didn't equip the plane (or the terminal) with supplies to handle a common event (spilled food, passenger body fluids) and that is not my problem.

Flight attendant thinks it's beneath them to keep the plane clean? The airline isn't properly disciplining its employees and that is not my problem.

Smells like it's time for an FAA regulations around all this stuff.
The anti-NIMBY antagonizing is much more bizarre.

If citizens moved into a community because it was 'spacious and quiet' then it's 100% their right to keep it that way, and utterly bizarre that outsider should think they have the right to force some kind of change.

If community ABC does not want to be NY or Hong Kong that's entirely their perogative.

And FYI there's no evidence that 'density' decreases prices. The most 'dense' places in the US are the most expensive.

Americans do not have an inherent right to live in some place. There's plenty of land in the US meaning, Americans effectively have the right to choice, and to have some affordable abode, but that exists aplenty.

Now - when places like Atherton stop secondary projects, such as the electrification of Caltrain - now that's something else entirely - the community overall needs better transport, so Atherton needs to accommodate.

The 'solution' is probably to have much better/deeper/faster integration between transport services, how in holy cow is there not a 'very fast train' that goes around the bay, out to Sac, down to Morgan Hill, and up to Santa Rosa? With great connectors?

Frankly same with LA.

All of North and South Cal should be quickly navigable. That would make it more amenable to development.

Can you name a single site that works this way (i.e. a site offering full text search which allows you to page through more than 100,000 results of the full text search)?

I appreciate that everyone has different life experiences that lead to different expectations, but for me personally it would go without saying that google would not let you view all results to a query that returns million of results.

If you tell the bartender your life story, they don't owe you free drinks (and they might as well sell a screenplay)

While it's true that they sell the data they collect, you can choose to not share such data and still receive the free services. "Bromite" is a fork of Chromium, for example.

If you spend time in their store and cause loss and order a bunch of free waters, do the Terms of Service even apply to you? What can they even do? What can LinkedIn do about scraping and resale of every public profile page?

Give me some free privacy on my free dsl line.

Here's the flyer that was fatal to Oberlin's case:

https://firstamendmentwatch.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/S...

"This is a RACIST establishment ...": That's a statement of opinion, not actionable.

"... with a LONG ACCOUNT of RACIAL PROFILING and DISCRIMINATION.": That's a statement of fact, and it was therefore actionable and cost Oberlin's insuror millions.

That seems like a reasonable way to split the difference between free speech and libel.

I promise you there was enormous demand for products to stimulate R&D outside of NASA. Orders of magnitude more. That's why technology was leaping ahead even before NASA existed, and even after NASA's budget shrank. It's also why all that new technology came out of countries without manned space programs.

To make a valid spinoff argument, you have to show that the particular technology would not have come about without NASA. That sort of contrafactual, alt-history argument is really hard to do. It's why alt history has such a bad name in history circles -- you can't really show anything. This means all spinoff claims are dubious. Not only are they presented without the necessary evidence, it's difficult to see how the evidence ever could be acquired.

The policy goals are better served by being aligned with market forces.

A carbon tax which is fully refunded can be larger without causing economic damage, because it nets to zero for the average customer.

Meanwhile you eliminate the overhead and corruption opportunity on the decarbonization side. If you have a meaningful carbon tax, the incentive to decarbonize exists in proportion to the size of the tax, but people can do it however is most efficient rather than according to the way specified by the companies with the best lobbyists.
Unfortunately sometimes you have no choice, for example when I visit my parents in my hometown the only airlines that fly there are Ryanair and Wizz Air, both of which are absolutely terrible.

The alternatives would be transfers through different countries with a hugely increased cost.
It covers JIT, but not runtime. There is The Garbage Collection Handbook, but yeah, I would love to read similar slides for GC.
A given person will not inevitably get back less than their tax burden, people on average will get back less, but I'm pretty sure the median person will get back more. People who eg. fly a lot will get back less, those who live relatively modest lives will get back a good bit more. The wealthy will disproportionately bear the brunt of a carbon tax, because they tend to live much more energy-intensive lives than the median person.
Also I'll mention FPGAs (and in particular icestorm), RISC-V, RTL-SDR, USRP, NOAA satellite signals, 3-D printers, ODrive, Hackaday, JLCPCB, EEVblog, and Arduino.
Wow a domain specific database in Zig. This is literally my side project right now (though a completely different industry).

Land ownership is a matter of public record. I would start a database or spreadsheet and start looking at land ownership records, try to figure out who else is (likely to be) in the same boat and try to contact them individually.

> Buy and hold. Indexed funds. Get rich by working hard.

I don't trade for the money I trade for the challenge. The money is just a point system I use to see if I am winning. The tone of your reply makes me think I am considering myself an expert - which I am not. I am pretty well read on various trading methodologies, the papers being produced about trading, and have quite a lot of time in seat across varying markets including most recently the futures market during the onset of COVID. After paying my tuition to Mr. Market several times I've gained some experience that makes me money.

As for pairs trading that is exactly what I did. I've done it every season for years in several markets both equities and futures, and it has absolutely no correlation with a rising or falling general market. Though I have occasionally lost money when the legs go out of sync and, being a retail trader, do not have prime execution. But alpha is alpha, and one example is enough to disprove OPs conjecture that all technical analysis is bunk.

I can't tell if you're talking down at me or not so I'll be charitable and say I think B&H is great and I do it all the time. In fact, 99% of my money is tied up in tax advantaged B&H. However, I enjoy trading like I enjoy poker. So I spend some of my money on it. It's one of the few places you can get a challenge that tasks you in several different areas and it's better than donating to yet another 501 (c) 3 with a CEO that takes down a questionably large salary.
Well,but a consistent estimate of millions of results and then showing 400 is a rather bad estimate.
If the search results would be as bad as the estimates, you would have no business.

It seems like the high numbers are displayed to mislead about the speed and efficiency of the search, google knows no human will go through 10 thousands of result pages.

November 2016: Oberlin professors and deans defamed bakery

August 2017: lawsuit

September 2022: Oberlin agrees to pay 36 million to plaintiff

so yes, justice was served, but it took six years. I feel bad for the bakery people. I have filed suit in federal court before. I think my case only lasted a few months, but it was stress I would not wish on anyone. Who knows what these people have been through.
I wonder how quickly prices of goods will follow, they sure went up quickly on the way up.

I’m not American but have been to SF many times for work. Few places have made me feel more at risk than SF.

Can I ask some naïve questions here and have them interpreted kindly, I’m not trying to point to suggest anything or push any agendas. I don’t and won’t live there just trying to understand the dynamics.

A proportion of the population will have mental health issues that are perhaps incurable and treatable to certain degrees.

Couple severe mental health issues with lack of free and competent medical treatment and access to hard drugs.

Now also make it known country wide that there is a place where you’ll be given (relatively generous) financial assistance and little to no oversight and lax police enforcement when you use drugs.

Now also build more housing and shelters and combine with amenable weather.

Isn’t SF just the most attractive place for self destructing mentally I’ll people to flood to?

Anyone in the US from any state can walk into California and receive the benefits and get handled by California police and funded by California tax dollars.

This feels like having your cake and eating it to? Shouldn’t this be a federal problem? What would happen if people from Alabama and Texas were shipped back to their states or deprived of financial assistance, or maybe assigned the assistance they get back home?

Many of my questions here are based on assumptions and “facts” that are possibly totally wrong. So be kind.

I’m just wondering, doesn’t the problem need to be handled at a “systems thinking” level?
Show up to city councils and supervisor board meetings. Lawsuits force action on scofflaw jurisdictions.
The comments on here make me realize how fortunate I was to have a PC and an interest in learning C as a kid. Not to mention a supportive mother who bought me Borland's Turbo C++ compiler when I was ten or so.

Thanks, Mom. You opened the door to a lifelong passion and a decent livelihood to boot.
Usually the charge is for the hook-up; you bring the equipment. (It may include parts & labor for the public side.) So there's no "hack" to get construction approved if the city or county won't move forward.
Is the CEO non-technical, older, more focused on wining/dining/if-we-just-land-that-one-logo/we'll-land-investors/social-proof-board-name-dropping/networking-is-the-game/exagerating-sometimes-lying and do you have disproportionately less equity, were you bearish on getting to 30 people in the first place before being a solid, viable, business? Do you find yourself thinking that the company could run with fewer than ten very specific people?

Does work get done more effectively when the CEO does not interfere/mess things up but you don't allow yourself to say so?

Does it happen you watch clips from The Office's Michael Scott and it hits too close to home?

PS: Also, are you sure you're a co-founder and are you certain you actually do have equity? Did a lawyer you (not the company/CEO) have paid go over this? Are you in the bylaws?
...and there's also an open bug bounty so if you think that Zig is not a meaningful improvement over C in terms of safety, it's certainly going to be easy money for you :^)

They don't fly cross country or internationally multiple times a year, a large fraction of people making 6+ figures do, and that generally swamps a clunker's usage. Also, all the carbon that goes into making new cars they buy, all the Amazon crap, and climate controlling huge houses.

> The fallacy with the commonly used argument about how much solar energy comes into the planet is one that ignores the fact that this energy isn't, for lack of a better term, doing nothing.

Whereas I merely suggested you look at the daily global human use energy numbers AND the daily mean solar fall energy.

> No technology exists today that can do this at that scale. The numbers range from a requirement of 25% of all the electrical energy produced in the world to somewhere around eight times the worlds electric power production.

Hence the need to build such tech asthere is no where to go buy it.

How long ago did humans use 25% less energy than they do today, how long ago was the total global human enrgy demand less than an eigth of what it is today?

I'm not a fan of wesetern consumption, but the ability of humans to do things at greater and great scale has expanded beyond linear .. which is a reality to factor into any modelled proposed solution.

As I mentioned we (locally) are designing and preparing to build hydrogen generation infrastructure now in the same manner in which we built mining infrastructure some 40-50 years past that put anything comparable within the USofA to shame.

> And yet, there's another reality. All of this is absolutely futile unless we stop generating CO2. It would be a sad joke to quadruple world power generation (not sure it is even possible) only to add more CO2 than we can extract in the process.

> You don't quadruple anything at a global scale without producing an unimaginably large amount of CO2 and waste material.

It's not that we can (or should) stop generating C02, it's that we need to slow and eventually stop net C02 increase while actively acquiring and deploying the means to reduce net levels; to which a multi pronged approach is required- population reduction, mean consumption reduction, tree planting, change in agricultural practices, etc.

> Restricting this to the US. We have to convert our entire ground transportation system to electric power.

Throw in * build the public transport the US allowed the Koch & Co to lobby them out of, change the "me me me" mindset that encourages oversized yank tanks and excess consumption, etc.

Point being, it's not just a "tech problem" - there are social aspects, education, lifestyle et al.

> This topic isn't simple at all.

It is rather thorny.

The other key thing about oil is we have already reached "peak oil", the Saudi fields are already on the downslop there, globally availibility will decrease and demand and extraction costs rise.
I think it’s mostly semantics here. Companies didn’t care about it for security. They cared about it for productivity.

Enterprise development is always about delivering features first. Performance, security, reliability, etc. come after that.
> Always fact check individually; if one student in that entire college, she could been the one to do some research and stop it before it came too far.

One of the previous threads here had a link to a pdf somewhere in the comments, that looked like it had excerpts from the court filings. It had quite a few emails saying variants on "my experience with them says these accusations aren't true at all".

So no, I don't think one student pushing back would have helped.
