> The fun little trick to this is you have to find a new property within 45 days of selling the previous property to keep the tax deferral benefits.

This is a 1031 exchange [0], when selling a business and buying a "like" business -- if you can identify the new one within 45 days of selling the old and close within 180, you can defer (not avoid) the long term gains on the deal. So let's say you bought a gas station in a crappy part of town, but you want to sell it and buy a bigger/better/more profitable one by the highway, this is how you do it. If your "business" is rental housing, then you can do the same thing.

Tax evasion is illegal, tax avoidance isn't. Why would you want to pay 15-20% long term gains tax on your gas-station trade-up if you didn't need to?

> Unfortunately, the landlords have increased their rents to correspond with local housing prices, and normal hardworking people are getting squeezed more than they ever have been.

It's just supply and demand -- capitalism at work. I don't think that many landlords are altruistic enough to not want match their rates to the "competition" (in this case housing prices).

That depends significantly on state law w.r.t anti-deficiency rules and so on. California is a non-recourse state where a mortgage lender can only repossess the home, but there are other states where the lender can foreclose and then come after you for the difference in case of a short sale.
The onus on us talking to our lawyer seems silly when we have an alternative in writing. So our plan is to refuse payment and let them "talk to your lawyer" if they like.
In many places it’s either not an option or not one that you’re going to find almost anywhere most people shop. As far as I know in my city the only place to find real bread is Whole Foods (where the inventory is limited and inconsistent) or the one independent bakery that happens to sell sliced bread. And it’s a Japanese bakery, so I would guess almost nobody would even think to look there. Almost every other bakery is selling bullshit like cupcakes.

It also costs $5+ a loaf when you can get the cheap stuff for $1-$2, so a lot of people just wouldn’t spend the money anyways because they don’t know or care about the difference.
This definitively needs a few easy maps that can be replayed multiple times as a "tutorial". Otherwise it's too difficult to get casual users. (And apparently too easy for hardcore roguelike fans.)

My suggestion is to keep the oficial daily map with bragging right, and also add a few "tutorial" maps.

My rule of thumb is, start designing with a relational DB and only think about graph if it becomes painful. If you don't have cyclical FKs, you probably don't have a real use for a graph DB.
I love my EcoTank and I love it. I will say that the GUI is awful on these printers. The MFT displays (not touch) are like going back a decade in user experience. That said, it's more than made up for by how awesome not having crappy ink experience. I don't print more, but I have easily covered 3x cartridge refills, each of which is as expensive as a new printer.
Well, yeah, it is unfair!

But unfortunately, this is not a case of good for you, too bad for them. Unaffordable housing will cause political extremism and will increase crime as more people realize that the deck is hopelessly stacked against them and that they will not receive any reward for playing along with our current economic system.

Basically, California is an early experiment in this. Take a zig-zagging walk from the top of Market street to the Mission and you will know the future of America if we don’t keep housing affordable.

My sentiments exactly. Sure, on paper they offer capabilities to "replace" other 3p tooling, but you can't replace fully fleshed-out products with half-baked features. Take Jira for example. Gitlab markets itself as having "comprehensive" (the highest kind) comparability to Jira's team planning, portfolio management, and service desk capabilities.

I would be interested in knowing how Gitlab handles some of the functionality my team relies on every day with regard to task management:

Does Gitlab have an automation engine that can trigger a set of user-defined rules based on events like issue creation, comments, transitions, etc etc?

Does Gitlab allow users to define custom issue and request types, custom fields, custom validations, custom screens and workflows?

Can I link issues in Gitlab? Can I create issue-type hierarchies?
I think you're both right actually

The answer is very simple. They just need to tear down a small fraction of those endless twisting mazes full of tiny single-family homes and replace them with large apartment buildings like you see in Asia. Right now there's no free market at work, since there are too many artificial restrictions on building.

In Tokyo, you can work part time as a janitor and still live within a 10 minute train ride to work.

I don't interpret a lot of "drama" as you put it, but interest. Many observers here are in this field, and follow the "chaos engineering" discipline. Some of them use tools like "chaos monkey" that simulates a metaphorical monkey running through your server room turning off random things, to see how well your resilience systems cope. It's a rare and greatly interesting sight to such practitioners to get to see what happens when the monkey "disconnecting the more sensitive server racks" is a more literal one.

The problem is poor repairability along with a comparatively high price. I had a 2-year old ET-5850 stop working completely because of some issue with its scanner unit. It would not even print. Epson has no authorized repair center in NYC for this product (https://epson.com/servicelocator?productCode=SPT_C11CJ29201). The only options were shops that service larger offices and charge $150/hr. I spent the $150+tax to be told that repairing it would result in part+labor charges that exceed the cost of a new unit. Their nearest authorized service centers were 40-50 miles away on Long Island. I spent $250 and half a day renting and driving in peak traffic. The guy there was honest - he charged me $30 for diagnostics, confirmed repairs would cost almost as much as a new machine, and disposed of it for me for free. I learnt my lesson and bought a Cannon G7020, a much smaller, cheaper and slower tank printer. If it stops working, I can carry it out with little regret, and put it on the sidewalk without breaking my back or my bank account.
> which means it's too expensive to function

Well it functions up until people such as this head chef say "screw these housing prices" and relocate somewhere else and open their restaurant and have a better life and then whoever is living in Seattle gets crappy or extremely expensive restaurants to account for the high housing prices.
Most working class people die with savings below five figures. You should re-evaluate how good you're doing.

Of course, if you live in California or New York, you're basically broke, since the cost of living in those states is designed to keep people poor. But that's why people left those two states in droves over the last few years.
Tech platforms struggle to verify their users' age
They definitely need chaos engineering team. Maybe, they had one, but they were fired?
To pile on to the ills of housing cost inflation – there are high order effects on cost. Your $3k / mo day care is expensive because the staff is paying $2500 / mo for their apartment. Auto repair is now $175+ / hour, so are most plumbers, handymen and contractors. The cost of every good & service you are buying is in large part the rent for all the laborers that supplied the inputs.

You may think that minimum wage should rise, but that just takes pressure off of rents and rents go up.

This is not an easy problem to solve, and every mitigation tends to worsen the problem . We've had inflation for 30 years, most of which piled into housing. Covid accelerated the release of the pandora's box.
We do still have massive doctor shortages though (at least here in Canada) so I wouldn't worry about doctors not having jobs any time soon

It's gotten pretty ugly with provinces trying to poach doctors from other provinces, competing with each other to offer incentives to entice doctors from other provinces
Environmental degradation is a socialization of (opportunity) costs. Unaccountability for those is a systemic failure that needs to be adressed as such.

This has nothing to do with democracy per se. The constituency in the US isn't directly involved with legislature. They vote for "representatives" who supposedly defend their interests in a role of mediation.

In reality, long-term interests of the public are of little import.
Public perception is easily swayed, what counts more than votes is, who has money and knows how to use it.

Those responsible steal themselves out of accountability.
>I agree that the sort of investment you are describing makes sense - but in practice those kinds of investments are out-competed by ones with better yields.

I think that is a an advantage, not a disadvantage. There is no need for housing investments to have competitive yields. If you can make a profit building houses which have more value to buyers than your cost of inputs, someone will make them. It just won't be a speculative investment good.

I don't worry that people will stop making socks, shoes, or food because the profit margin in that business is lower than the market yield. If there is on opportunity for profit, someone will want do it. They just might not be funded by some massive financial hedge fund, which again, I think is an advantage.

Historically, home ownership has been a vehicle for intergeneration wealth building because it means taking on more responsibility, work, and risk instead of paying a 3rd party to do so.

I would argue that most people renting would not result in the lowest cost, because it turns responsibilities that a homeowner can do for free into 3rd party services which must be paid for. It is like saying that city run food kitchens would be more efficient than people cooking at home. Maybe it is "more efficient" if you count the homeowners implicit labor, but the dollar cost to the cooker is still going up.

I think most people would agree the goal is higher ownership and lower costs than now. I think this is actually reasonable if we fix some of the conditions that lead to house exorbitant growth in house value

You don't see small grocery stores in the US unless they specialize in the food of a particular ethnicity. They are all huge and serve a massive area.
Honestly the problem is that Google has been trying to fix it. Alternative and diverse incomes is the solution.

Everyone wants to make a good product, but ads make a product worse. Everyone wants to make a heavily used product but pay-per-use or subscriptions are limiting.

Google Cloud+Workplace, YouTube Premium, Play Store, Nest, ahem Stadia. Google has plenty of attempts at building products that make money without ads. The problem is that they’re expensive and not nearly as profitable.

LLM are bad at search, but people seem to like they. It gives them a clean re-start of search and maybe they’ll use it to do a search subscription where they can retry building their one good product without ads. Probably not though.
Trading some convenience for a much better world in every conceivable metric is just more important.
There is no automatic signed to unsigned coercion in Rust, so maybe that's why I don't have that problem. And I almost entirely use unsigned, even when doing math on sizes, so I never mix them. The only place one has to be careful is subtraction.
There's a correlated issue here-- housing (and other goods) have gotten so expensive with respect to real wages that most consumers don't really have much of a choice.

Wealth inequality is a huge part of the reason consumers won't opt for the more eco-friendly or ethical options on the market.

I played a bit in the past with its "sense of humor"... and... its... interesting.

Write 5 jokes based on misinterpetation of jargon used by a doctor and a software developer.
1. Doctor: “I’m sorry, I’m afraid you have a terminal illness.” Software Developer: “Oh no! Does that mean I have to reboot?”
2. Doctor: “We need to do some tests to get a better diagnosis.” Software Developer: “Ok, let me just run some debug mode.”
3. Doctor: “You’ll need to take this medicine twice a day.” Software Developer: “No problem, I can just set a cron job to remind me.”
4. Doctor: “I’m afraid the prognosis isn’t good.” Software Developer: “Well, maybe I can write some code to fix it.”
5. Doctor: “This treatment should give you some relief.” Software Developer: “Great! I’ll just patch it in.”

I want to hope that those aren't common jokes. The "trick" for this appears to be playing to its strengths (granted, humor isn't one of them) and work with wordplay and puns.
The US is immune to demographic problems. There’s an infinite supply of young people willing to immigrate and an extremely heterogeneous society really to integrate them. Japan has never figured out how to integrate immigrants.

The companies that have incentives to track you are the companies with an ad-supported business model.

The only business model that does not have an incentive to track you is a subscription based model. Yes, it is is easy to 'track' you but what is the incentive to do that? It does not need to monetize your data.

And in order to pay a susbcription, you need an account.

So curious how would you do this differently in Kagi's shoes?
Many of us went through circuitous routes. My title is SWE at a big tech company and I interview SWE candidates, so I think I'm relatively close to how the sausage is made in terms of the pipeline through which most engineering candidates go through to get into big tech.

Personally I think "grind LC" is a very common meme perpetuated by folks on the candidate side, but it lacks a lot of context in terms of how modern big tech interviews are actually done. Focusing exclusively on code, for example, is IMHO, a counter productive way of hyper-focusing. I personally didn't even know what leetcode was when I joined my big tech company, for example. I did well in the loops because they evaluated various other things that I could demonstrate thanks to previous open source work (e.g. community building).

What you're basically seem to be saying is that you fell into big tech thanks to a fortuitously aligned set of previous experiences, as many of us did. But that's the exact opposite of grinding LC as a newbie. Grinding LC is one way of hyper-focusing, and going by the numbers, it's no longer necessarily sufficient to land a big tech job.
I don't mean to be blunt, but if modest homes in your area are $1m, then you are in a VERY high-cost-of-living area and what you see here is not at all typical of the rest of the country. Where I live, a charming 1200sqft starter home in a blue collar neighborhood goes for $150-$200k.
Public transport would obviously need much less space and would be much more efficient. It’s the car sprawl that is unsustainable in every way.
I understand but don't agree.

'customer' implies commerce happened, 'listener' implies listening happened. 'consumer' is a higher abstraction than either of those.

It's the most abstract word someone could think of to say "X internalized Y".

e.g. "X took Y and added it to itself... let's not get distracted with how. the important thing is, X took Y and internalized it."

I guess we could, uh, go with "internalizer". I'd be down with that.

Why would you stay at Twitter? Even if you believe in the platform and the mission, this has to be one of the most stressful work environments in tech right now.

The only cases I can think of for staying:

- Unfortunate H-1Bs tied to the job. (We really need to make it easier for these folks to switch jobs and keep their visa!)

- A feeling one needs the job and can't easily get work elsewhere. Perhaps living paycheck to paycheck, haven't interviewed in awhile, imposter syndrome... (If you're worried you'd not be able to get hired, instead ask why you weren't fired.)

It doesn't work currently. The only problem is that plugin initialization must be asynchronous, so you have to pass control back to the browser to allow it to initialize the WebGPU api properly[1]. I hacked async plugin initialization into a fork for Bevy 0.8[2], but I never got it to 100% work because Chrome had already moved onto a newer WGSL syntax. In theory if you do the same changes for 0.10 as I did for 0.8 it should allow WebGPU to work (and I plan on doing this in the next couple days).
