On the other hand, extroverted people have similar advantage in the real life. I myself am quite happy for every lesson where I was pushed to practice people-facing skills (presentations, demonstrations, etc).

> Whereever people sense they can make a buck or save a buck, laws amd regulations be damned.

A lot of us would like lower prices as long as nobody is negatively affected. Laws and regulations aren't automatically just by design because they're laws, sometimes they're outdated or the result of lobbying/regulatory capture. There's a lot wrong with Uber such as how they treat their drivers/customers, etc, but I doubt many of us would shed any tears to the taxi medallion cartel they disrupted.

However, in this case, it's clear that laws have been broken, but not even the typical laws you'd associated with Airbnb (those around short-term rentals), the law that has been broken is the one that outlaws fraud or misrepresentation of goods/services. The problem isn't even that Airbnb has "disrupted" the market by breaking the law around short-term rentals, it's just that Airbnb is now using its size to break basic laws around online commerce with total impunity by charging for goods/services that aren't rendered and fraudulently pitching an insurance policy/guarantee that doesn't actually exist.

>It was really clear that the driving force in how someone is likely to respond to seeing a topless woman in public is not the setting, region, or the legality of where the toplessness occurs, but rather the characteristics, traits, and opinions of the person who is doing the reacting in the first place,” Harbke told PsyPost. “Even though prior surveys have shown that many people feel that being able to go topless in public should be within women’s legal rights, these findings suggest that that doesn’t necessarily mean that they will react favorably to seeing it around them.”
>From my point of view a larger audience will drive the price up so I fail to see a correlation. Also, a broader audience leads to less targeted audience, so that seems cost-ineffiecient

They have less earnings and savings than the previous generation as compared to the price of homes at the same time in their lives. While government intervention in the USA has adjusted the requirements to get a loan approved, it will not be enough to keep up with rising interest rates. Prices have to come down for millennials to make purchases. This will cause a "house-price" slump.

This demand effect is certainly real, but is going to be weighed against the higher rates effect. A lot of the increase in prices was purely mathematically driven by the falling interest rates. The monthly payment if you get a mortgage has now doubled for most people. There's no way that's sustainable, especially as most first time buyers were already stretcing to their limit. All it takes is a belief that prices might fall to put off buyers a year or two and balance the demand side of the equation enough for prices to fall. House prices typically fall slowly though, as sellers are reluctant to sell at first and buyers just start waiting. Seems we are already seeing that impact on transaction volumes drying up.

Grid tracks (rows and columns) can be content sized. You just have to set the dimensions to something other than a concrete size (you have used `33vh` here). See the auto, min-content, max-content and fit-content values for height/width (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/height). You can get close to table-like behaviour by setting the height to `fit-content(33vh)`. There is also a minmax function which allows you to set minimums and maximums and have it content size between that.

One of the nice things about grid is that you can size the tracks on the parent element, and all you have to do on the children is specify which rows/columns they span. It works much better when you want to do the sort of things you use rowspan and colspan for with tables.

EDIT: Setting height: 100% was also preventing the grid from expanding. Try this JSFiddle https://jsfiddle.net/c3m2194b/

Happened to us and our neighbors - bought end of 2005. 2015... house estimated for... about the same as we paid for it. It wasn't "steady sideways"... it was 'crash and recover'. But it's certainly happened to many folks - buy then sell years later at roughly same price.
Bring it on. As a first time buyer, I don't even care about prices going down as much as I care about being able to actually buy a home that I want without feeling like it's a blind gamble.

I sometimes wonder why venues choose Ticketmaster; large as Ticketmaster is it's not the only option, and how did they come to be the main player? My only conclusion is that the venues (and bands) are benefiting.

Here's my theory:

Venues and bands know that for PR reasons they can't jack up the price of tickets, but they don't want to miss out on the revenue from people willing to pay scalper prices. So they set tickets at a nominal price but reserve huge blocks of tickets for the band and venues. Nominally these are "family and friends" tickets, but in practice the band and venue put them immediately for resale. This way the bands and venues can get that gigantic revenue. Meanwhile a small number of tickets are sold at face value and immediately sell out. Ticketmaster profits from fees on the ticket sales and resales.

A "known evil" company like ticketmaster is now a benefit, as "obviously" the jacked up costs are ticketmaster's fault. Meanwhile ticketmaster is really just a service to take the heat off of bands and venues for what would otherwise be seen as price gauging.

> You are begging the question: did the benefits outweigh the cost?

Certainly a retrospective is needed, I assume somebody is doing it. But even if it turned out that benefits did not outweigh the cost, that was unknowable at the beginning of the pandemic.

Therefore it was prudent and wise to err on the side of caution. Hindsight is 20-20. We know and knew that vaccines work. Vaccines save lives. That fact has not changed because of Covid has it?

In the US > 1 million people died because of Covid. Most of them unvaccinated. Without vaccines it could have been millions more deaths. And with less anti-vaccine propaganda, and better pro-vaccine propaganda, it would probably been many fewer deaths.

So rather than simply pondering (and suggesting) the question of whether "benefits outweighed the cost" we need to also consider the alternative-cost. How many more would have, or could have, died without the vaccines?

>It's well known that negative reviews are scrubbed and even edited

If this is true, then I see no other blame than Airbnb themselves. If you make a platform allowing reviews in such a way that the "seller" can edit the reviews "users" make, then that's never going to become anything other than scammy. Even allowing a review to be scrubbed/removed by the seller is bad. There should be a mechanism to work with the platform to handle fake/false reviews, but the seller should never be able to do that on their own.
Restating or paraphrasing a widely accepted thesis statement isn't very educational? When your freshman class of 200 students is writing essays on a handful of topics, the same ones every year, that every other school touches on, there's not going to much in the way of originality.

Then again I guess the same argument can be made for maths but no one complains that we're teaching to memorize and repeat the same steps of various proofs one learns in 1st year.
Which sadly means nothing, so many details being hidden behind the words "general", "intelligence", "running", "quantum computer", "ought", "oberve" and "existing".

If you could refine what these words all mean, I guess we could understand it as something more than "Deutsch seems to think that yes", which can replace your sentence entirely, "yes" describing it all as precisely.

I am myself, in some ways, a general intelligence running on a quantum computer but I dont feel like I can observe myself existing in a novel special way. Let alone being able to then express it for you in a way that is novel as well.

Ticketmaster is "chosen" because most venues are owned and operated by Live Nation, who in turn owns Ticketmaster.

Is this a monopoly, and a massive conflict of interest? Yes, and yes.

Most acts don't really have the ability to set their own pricing. Those that do either are huge acts, who kind of have to go to Live Nation venues (because an act like Taylor Swift can't really go to tiny venues when she could sell out a stadium) or are tiny, local bands or artists in niche genres that don't really play venues larger than clubs or bars.

Agreed. Prices might fall relative to the wackiness of Covid peaks that were hit in the past year or so, but the long term trend will be for prices to outpace inflation unless a building spree hits due to demographic changes.

A bright light I'm seeing is that material costs have largely fallen back to pre-covid levels. There are a few bits that are expensive or hard to obtain (windows), and the labor market is still aging. But still, the cost to build in many areas has fallen dramatically.
> Certainly prices may come down in some locations as interest rates go up if there aren't enough cash buyers

The interest rates make a huge difference here...a hypothetical buyer who could afford $5000/month in payments would qualify for a $1.22 million mortgage at 2.75% interest, whereas that same payment at 7% would only cover a $750k mortgage.

Cash buyers are generally about 25% of the market, which is a good chunk, but not enough to prop up prices if the other 75% of buyers they're competing with have had their purchasing power drop by 40% in the past 6 months.
One of the simplest issues is that headers end with a newline. Most code will not generate a header with an embedded new line, so it's common that software doesn't handle this case, and passes the new line through unmodified. This means that if someone is able to set a custom value for part of a header they can often use that to inject their own custom response header. Or even their own customer response body, since that is also set off with newlines.

Traditional institutions, like home ownership, marriage, and religion, are fading in their appeal.

In the case of home ownership, the benefits depend quite a lot on the number of years the property will be owned. I'm not sure what the numbers are now, but when I bought and later sold my house, I determined that 6-7 years was the minimum duration that made home ownership better than just renting.

People change jobs more frequently now than in the past, and consequently they tend to move around more often. That makes investing in a home more risky, as it's really unclear if one will still want to be in that home/location in 5 years. Renting, by comparison, is less risky. It may be less economical over the long run, but not if you would find yourself moving every small few years.

Also, the remote work thing is not going to decrease; if anything, it will increase, reducing location pressure (and consequently reducing the value (or rate of increase in value) of homes in certain areas). That implies even more risk for homeowners in those areas, as they cannot rely on ever-increasing values.

I realized why this being based on simulation bothered me: this is a machine learning classifier that classifies viral genomes as synthetic or natural. The training set n = 72 (all negative, which is justifiable if you're ok with null hypothesis significance testing) the validation set n = 6 (only synthetic examples, which is less fine), and there's no test set. No effort was made to estimate true positive rate, false positive rate, etc. If this was published as a machine learning paper instead of a biology paper it would probably be held to a higher standard.
