1B is a tiny investment in this space, many individual skyscrapers are worth significantly more than 1B.

Managing ~3,000 single family home rentals is possible for a single small office assuming it’s all in a small geographical area. But the article mentions they are outsourcing the work to a third party.
It's also a quite explored and already deeply optimized area.

Companies like TensTorrent, Graphcore and Lightmatter (for example) try to hit different spots of the architectural landscape (seemingly all optimising for 'cheap to tapeout' in all sorts of clever ways, but you still have to code for it (even though you often get python APIs and deep learning tensorflow/torch support, but that's probably not getting you to to max perf). Very interesting to watch, and hopefully one can get their hands on that kind of hardware and build a community around it.
Rural areas are not typical in terms of where most kids live and grow up. Explaining how things are in rural parts of the country is not a valid counter point. In large parts of the country walking has more or less become criminalized and discouraged. I’m talking about areas where a large percentage of people live. We have also criminalized giving kids autonomy.

China doesn't have widespread free (K)N95 mask use either. There's not enough production even in China. Yet they're still faring better than the US so far.

Adjusting for population, the US peaked at the equivalent of 15,000/day after vaccination was underway and most places got rid of mask mandates, followed by a peak at the equivalent of 8,500/day after more than half the population was vaccinated, and another one around 12,000/day with 2/3 to 3/4 of the population being partially to fully vaccinated. Now it's been steadily the equivalent of 1,200 to 2,000/day going on 9 months even though almost everyone should have plenty of immunity from both vaccination and repeated exposure. The numbers are lower than they would be without vaccination, but this isn't sustainable. We know what does work.
There was a time where Freenom was my go to for getting unique domains for parody webpages but it has since become too unreliable even for this purpose.
for me it feels like i need some kind of closure, the CI you suggest for me is hard, when i take a new year resolution, it feels like kind of starting on a clean slate, f*k all the mistake i made and start fresh, and i was able to do some progress year by year (but very small), i was thinking of making a resolution every year on my birth day, but it feels like a lonely activity, but in new years resolution, i feel like its a communal thing, like ,yay :) lot of people taking resolution and i'm doing one as well, if i fail then i convince my self ,saying, meh i will add it to next year, but i add list of things in my resolution, and finish some, all it comes down to me for is , clean slate , forgive myself if i miss some goals, and i start fresh because its New Year and it means you can start fresh ;-)

One major difference is that a mortgage is essentially “rent to own” - at the end of the repayment you own the property. Here ownership remains with JPMorgan?

Yup I definitely fall into that bucket of not really feeling the impact of what I build. It seems like most companies are creating "lesser of two evils" products. Users hate most software. It causes people so much headache because UIs are confusing, bugs occur, simple tasks are painstaking and repetitive. People only use software tools because there's often nothing better or simply because a company forces them to do it. Or maybe it's like, yeah service A is janky and horrible but service B is even worse.
Whereas in Sweden it starts at 15 and, for some reason[0], is titled “Donald Duck and his friends wish you Merry Christmas”, despite Jiminy Cricket being the presenter.

Happy to see you mention the latter. I read Neverness as a teenager, and have re-read the book several times over the years. It influenced the way I see the world, and many of the ideas and phrases have become part of my own life narrative. I definitely count it as one of the most mind-expanding books I've read.
Elden Ring got the Game of the Year award for a reason. The narrative is somewhat minimalist and told in fragmented notes, not the type you would see in Mass Effect, for example, but it is there. The biggest points of the game are exploration and challenge, though.

My personal favorite is Citizen Sleeper. Also Signalis is pretty cool somewhat oldschool dreamy horror game.

I don't know what voting in California is like, but here in Austria we have election districts ("Wahlsprengel") with just a few thousand voters each. For every district there are volunteers who observe the election and count the votes.

It's all counted by hand. It doesn't matter how many voters there are, you can always count by hand, you just divide and conquer.
It was a direct quote from Roth’s dissertation, including context. Nobody “had to flee”.

Old Twitter had countless tweets containing images of violence against children. Under Musk it took only days to remove all of that.
Hydrogen ICE is a pipe dream. BMW tried it in the early 2000's and failed. Toyota is prototyping it without much fanfare. (Their current test car, a tiny Yaris can do two laps of the test rink before refueling and maintenance).

All cars in the future will be propelled by electric motors. The only thing we're arguing is how are they going to transport the energy. Batteries? Hydrogen fuel cell? Some kind of generator, running biogas or 100% synthetic fuel? Most likely all of the above, depending on the use-case.
Land value tax which is free if you live in an owner occupied property, without the ability to sublet. Higher if rented out, and then make a linear increasing penalty percentage with the number of properties owned. So if you own one house and live there, zero tax. If you own 5 properties, you pay zero on the one you live in, then regular tax on the second, tax+penalty on the third, tax+higher penalty on the fourth, etc.

It would not make any sense to create real estate ETFs under this world for example because the tax penalty would be extremely high.
My necktie disagrees with this.
I‘m sure some people are drinking along with James the Butler (quite a feat) but that is not widespread. It is on TV each year but I would be surprised if many people aren‘t watching via YouTube.
I don’t know if you’ve experienced American stroads. Theoretically you can walk from point A to point B but often times that involves crossing a stroad. Doing so is extremely unpleasant and dangerous. American car drivers just don’t expect pedestrians and are often times hostile to pedestrians. The idea of walking somewhere is an alien thought to many people.

Just want to applaud and support your work.

In 1983, just out of college, I moved to Seattle with my wife and started working for a firm ("TOM Software") that was porting the Wang Basic-2 language to the then-emerging line of 16 bit microprocessor systems running some variant of UNIX.

I invested a lot of time and effort in the project. It was a great project and I learned a lot about language systems.

I hope this project is similarly rewarding for you. I wish you success and a lot of fun with it!
I suppose async web servers is the poster child of async, and drove a lot of the development. However, then _everything_ went async, adding the cognitive overhead of dealing with Rust async throughout the ecosystem, whether needed or not.

In short, it still feels like a leaky abstraction: marvelous to look at working code, but errors (both compile and run-time) expose the underlying machinery underneath the syntactical sugar.

This is probably heresy, but as a former Rust dev I'm enjoying web-services in Go more these days.

This is going to be the year I improve at climbing. I absolutely love the hobby and have done it on and off for years.

I’m at the age demographic where I see a lot of folk feeding into the hustle culture. While I think it’s important to keep the future in mind, I also want to recognise I’ve reached a pretty good point in my life and would like to do something that won’t improve my career in any way.
Stop buying anything Chinese
Not really, unless you redesign your app using Tamagui.

Your best bet is using React Native Web and removing dependency on the packages that don’t support web: remove/treeshake them, shim them (like RNW does with RN), or detect the platform using a conditional and then exclude the troublesome package/component in favor of a web compatible one.

Alternatively: Keep the web app separate from the native one, and simply share logic and some shared components (RNW) in a monorepo. Could be the easiest path forward, but will give some duplication of code.

My two cents, FWIW. Someone who has done the transition themselves, or has more insight to your particular case could probably offer even better advice.
Every year I like to write out my long-term (5-10 year) goals down and then pick 2 or 3 of them to focus on for the year. Then break them down into monthly, weekly, and daily goals/habits. For 2023 I chose to work on over coming my social anxiety which has some how gotten really bad and work on changing careers into another field (currently in construction).
Well, you have to scale everything down by a factor of 10 to map German scales to Austrian ones ;)

We have like 2 or so (?) public broadcasting stations. One of which makes a heroic sacrifice for the audience that wants to see Silversterstadl, so we need to compromise a bit.

Typical Austrian tradition is to get unreasonably shitfaced with friends/relatives throughout the day (same as every other holiday), until you have a sufficiently positive outlook on the new year.

In that state you're then able to bare the presidents new year speech for the purpose of sarcastically mocking it, actually find Mundl's antics afterwards funny and can round it off with "Dinner for One", right before going outside and playing with explosives. If you survive, you get to listen to the final parts of The Blue Danube afterwards.
What's wrong with "the cookie law"?

If a website wants to spy on you it needs to make that at least very clear to the user.

Nobody likes "cookie banners". But those banners are just a result of the fact that almost all web sites want to spy on their users, and sell the this way collected data. If you don't do that you don't need any banner. (Does HN has a cookie banner? Does for example https://noyb.eu/en has a banner? Does Wikipedia has a banner? Go figure.)
The free market at work also generated the airlines and travel industry that so many enjoy. We created the FAA and other entities to regulate the market participants to make sure we get the outcome we desire while balancing generating economic activity. If something isn’t working right, it’s the responsibility of regulators to fix the problem, or ultimately the people to elect representatives who will.

This casual cynicism regarding markets is dangerous and infectious because instead of focusing on fixing problems that have solutions via the levers of government, people give up completely and then nothing is ever made better. We need more participation in government, not less. When you toss up anything bad as “that’s the free market folks!”, people have no recourse. They can’t vote away airlines. So you end up directing action toward something that can’t be actioned upon. It’s misdirection.

Also claiming that “this is the free market” ignores the vast civilian infrastructure that is built and maintained by the State and regulatory agencies and practices that have been created. Not to mention bailouts in the past of bankrupted airlines and such. Airlines in particular are not a good example of “that’s the free market”, and even so markets don’t operate in a vacuum, they serve at the behest of the people and the government.
Just what is it? I can't find a simple one sentence description

It shouldn't be possible to manipulate the ASN.1. The answer to your first question should be no, to the second yes.

See this brand-new paper which briefly discusses the desired property of "non-malleability": https://www.fstar-lang.org/papers/asn1star.pdf

"DER are designed to ensure that every value of a given ASN.1 type has a distinct, canonical wire format representation. That is, DER formats are intended to be unambiguous and non-malleable, in the sense that given a bit string b that encodes a value v, every parser will yield back o, whereas changing any bit in b either produces an invalid representation or yields a distinct value o' + v. These properties are particularly important in security applications, inasmuch as they depend on values u but apply cryptographic protection only on binary formats b."
People also have limited liability. You can't be sued for the actions of another person, or held responsible for the debt of another person.

Or am I stuck having to find a really fast lightweight web framework and run a web app?

Mortgages are not typically corporate debt. Mortgages are by definition collateralized. Therefore, there are covenants triggers related to the value of the collateral.

The vast majority of corporate debt (bonds) is unsecured. There is no collateral.

"Zero emissions" when speaking of EVs and HCVs means "zero local pollution coming from the tailpipe". Yes we can split hairs about dust blown from the tires etc, but with Zero Emission vehicles we won't have smog anymore.

On electric car fires: They're really not an issue, firefighters need a one-day course of the dos and don'ts and maybe a few extra tools, but it's not some mystical art we haven't figured out yet. In short: lithium burns by itself, you can't put it out by taking oxygen away. You need to cool it for a long enough time for the reaction to stop.

> the car industry never showed much thought about using 6 stroke engines or seriously exploring other means to get as much energy out of the burnt fuel as they could

Oh they did. Toyota got up to a whopping 37% efficiency on a petrol engine.

Even the shittiest electric motor has 90%+ efficiency.

ICEs are just wasteful, which is a good thing in the winter since they produce their own heat - but a bad thing in the heat, because you need to spend energy cooling it.
For me this manifests as changing jobs about every two years.

I also keep a Fred Brooks quote taped to the wall behind my monitors:

The programmer, like the poet, works only slightly removed from pure thought-stuff. They build their castles in the air, from air, creating by exertion of the imagination. Few media of creation are so flexible, so easy to polish and rework, so readily capable of realizing grand conceptual structures.

The magic of myth and legend has come true in our time.

Show HN: Pole Clock, a single 24h clock with multiple timezones
Hi HN! I designed this Pole Clock to be a helpful tool for people like myself who often struggle with managing their sense of time.

I found that analog clocks are generally easier to read and understand than digital ones, however I find the fact that every day is broken into two 12-hour rotations unintuitive. A single 24-hour rotation makes it easier to grasp where in the day you are, the bottom half representing night and the top half representing day.

Additionally, because the clock displays 24 hours, you can add extra hour hands on the clock for other time zones. This is especially useful if you work remotely or have friends and colleagues in different time zones. At a single glance, see where they are in their days and energy levels!

I hope you'll give the Pole Clock a try and find that it helps you better understand and manage your sense of time.
To try and be less of an asshole frankly...

Barring some dramatic kind of tenure reform, this isn’t such a bad idea for tenants, given that unlike so many landlords, this venture is being run by firms big enough to attract scrutiny, and competent enough to know what processes and laws to follow, even if they will push those boundaries.

As an aside, the article also refers to a story on ‘digitising the rental market’ which seems to be about moving the US market away from rent checks? Why are these still a thing there? in most countries at least in OECD this is like doing business via fax or even telex.
I'm the same, instead I always take around 2 weeks vacation at the end of the year and do a full year retrospective instead of creating goals (doesn't take 2 weeks but being off work helps).
Hmm, maybe we should ban selling housing for more than the purchase price + inflation based on some index. If rent controls are popular, why not also have price controls on properties themselves. Maybe allow some increase if entire building is replaced, but some value must be attributed to land that can not increase in value.
Sure, but renting is going to be what a lot of people continue to do - save some miracle of market disruption.

That’s such a weird thing to not vote for someone for. I mean, I get it - it’s a principled stance and all. But you should never vote on principal.
