I'm with them. "Earned" is really the big question. If I feel I earned my pay, and then I see someone else who's working harder and getting paid much less, it follows that I must also feel that they are receiving less than they have earned.
Hopefully this year, Washington will follow in Oregon's footsteps and re-legalize things like 4-plexes, or maybe go even further in big cities like Seattle.

Basically, "(re)legalize housing", along with things like corner stores and neighborhood commercial like corner stores and barber shops.
I think it correlates to how much uninterrupted blocks of free time you have. My almost middle school son loves it, but he has much more free time than I do (maybe because he hasn't discovered HN yet!). In my free time, I want to have a specific end goal or victory condition.
If the release date keeps getting pushed back, then that suggests that the problem isn't that the game needs more time to get fully baked, but rather there's some more fundamental issues in project management or project development that's hampering it. Continuing to push the release date back at that point is unlikely to improve matters, and pushing the result out as-is is actually likely to maximize revenue (the reviews won't get better, and you don't have to maintain marketing buzz for as long) while minimizing the losses from extra developer time.
How much was your total mortgage? Because housing prices have gone up dramatically in the last 15 years, and the math that worked back then (in terms of total mortgage amount, monthly payments, etc) doesn't work anymore today for a lot of people.
My favorite recent one is how the mobile division started refusing to use new Exynos chips from the semiconductor division. Imagine if Apple designed and built an A16 chip and then put Qualcomm SoCs in the iPhone.
I've only ever been to the airport, but I imagine there are great restaurants and innovative career-oriented chefs in Minneapolis too.
It’s annoying but it seems to be the way things are marketed these days to build up hype so I can’t really fault them for it. Better to release info piecemeal as opposed to one big info dump if you want to build up a following.
Don’t forgot that rent goes up. Renters pay taxes too.

My apartment that was $900/month in 2001 is $2200 today. Outside of some of the really stupid markets, it’s almost always better to own. You’ll be fixing that drain every year.
This is why I'm replying to a comment stating "I'm curious about the details". Without someone explaining their debts or where they live, we're guessing and arguing about what could drive someone to live in a 400 sqft studio where they make 3x the rent but still live paycheck to paycheck. You pay to live in that area. Even if we vastly increase the supply, these areas will always have an order of magnitude more demand than some apartment complex outside the city's beltway because living in these complexes allows you to drop your car dependency.
>If you bring home 6k a month after taxes, and after rent you're left with 4.5k, I'd also argue that's not "barely making ends meet". That leaves a very comfortable breathing room that is unimaginable luxury for most of the world.

Another aspect of this issue is that, when you take out a typical mortgage, you take a 4-5x leveraged long position on real estate. Rent for a nice 1br in Seattle area is $2K, but the hidden aspect is the landlord is holding the RE risk on your behalf.

Even if mortgage was $1K/mo, I would rather rent (which I do) to avoid this risk in volatile, tech-dependent area like Seattle.
well, this is sort of the point of the cognitive dissonance isn't it?

clearly my labor is valued at the value it produces, and i will continue to maximize the income and comfort of my family. is it virtue signaling to notice that my siblings literally work more hours than me and tolerate conditions i would not tolerate?

i don't know. i continue to push them towards tech jobs. they continue to think they are "not smart enough for it", which is an insane position.
That will happen the same time email "does something about that". It's an open standard. If you join a server that doesn't federate with servers you don't like, or you just don't follow accounts that post things you don't like, you won't see things you don't like.

My question for you is... what the heck server are you on, and what accounts are you following??? I've never seen a single thing you've mentioned on Mastadon.
I similarly get bored of Skylines as soon as the game starts handing you near-infinite money. Making something aesthetically pleasing is only so interesting to me - I want the challenge of constraints.

I actually have a similar problem with the Tropico remakes. Tropico 1 was hard. You could not survive a mission without dipping into the dictator toolsets. So striking a constant balance between economics and human rights was an interesting challenge. (It also made for a much more biting satire). The games since 3 are still pleasant city-builders in their own rights, but make it a bit too easy to win on the straight and narrow.
Good on you! I didn't have the stomach for Upper Hill, not everyone does. (Out of curiosity, where did you buy?)

It is not strange: moving is more expensive than it used to be, and the odds of being able to move somewhere that's cheaper to live without taking a proportional or greater hit to your income are low. Staying connected with other people is hardly the only determining factor. Lots of people traditionally moved because they didn't want to stay connected with a place, and figured thre would be better opportunities elsewhere.

You can borrow against equity and that might work to your benefit without selling. Or you can move to a less expensive location. E.g. if you live in the Bay Area and retire to the midwest, your home equity could be your entire retirement fund.
That second one, poking fun at the BBC for saying that Twitter "can't protect users from trolling," was really the BBC shooting itself in the foot with a laughable headline burying the lede of the article:

> Twitter insiders: We can't protect users from trolling under Musk

> Twitter insiders have told the BBC that the company is no longer able to protect users from trolling, state-co-ordinated disinformation and child sexual exploitation, following lay-offs and changes under owner Elon Musk. [1]

For some reason, the headline decided to focus on "trolling" over an increase in child sexual assault and state-co-ordinated disinformation...

On the other hand, the servers at restaurants in SF make more than most software engineers in Western Europe now. So probably good to focus a little more on economic growth.

Inkjets seem to have come a long way in the two decades I’ve been using lasers (non of which have needed replacement). I picked one up because I wanted to experiment with various artistic prints.

The print quality on my 4-ink model is a little better than the lasers, so it was a good choice for the work I’m wanting to do. I didn’t purchase one of the high quality 6 or 8 ink models that the real art pros use.

I’m about 6 months in now and it doesn’t seem like I’m going to have print head cleaning issues like I remember.

I’d still recommend lasers for most things.

'Then ground down' is a much bigger statement then you may think. If we look at the particle size of flour via historic grinding processes what did it look like? I'm sure they were far less uniform and in general larger than what we have now, which should lead to differences in the glycemic index.

CICO would have you believe there is no difference in 100 calories of coke and 100 calories of raw spinach, but the coke is going to have nearly instant uptake and the spinach will take hours to digest.
As far as I can tell, the correct way to handle units of measurement in a programming language is by extending unification to abelian groups, as in Andrew Kennedy's work that was later implemented in F#:

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/publication/relatio...

This seems superior to the GNAT solution. And support for dimensionality is somewhat orthogonal to the ergonomics of converting e.g. a u32 to a u64 that comes up in systems programming.
Some of the later DLC have been pretty half hearted yet at the same time they've hired modders for some of the more popular mods (like traffic manager) who've said they weren't working on DLC, so this has been in the works for a while

You're missing a major factor.

Those loans had variable interest rates and balloon payments.

They were told they could refinance before the balloon payments came due into conventional loans but when housing prices drop, you can't refinance because you owe more than it's worth. Combined with "no document" loans (aka, people lying about their income), people were buying houses that they very literally couldn't afford, not just in the "that's too much of your income" way, actually in the, "that's more than your income" way. Those were the subprime loans you hear about.

2008 would have been very different if everyone was on a conventional 30yr fixed loan.
> What percentage of C and C++ programmers do you think really understand all the rules regarding integer types in C?

Who cares? You could ask the same question about operator precedence, and the answer to both is similar: If it's unclear to you or those who might read your code, just be more explicit than strictly necessary. Handle or assert cases of possibly overflow. And by all means, you don't have to mimic the C/C++ implicit casting rules. If something's a potential pitfall, just make it an explicit cast (like `long` to `int` already is).

The status quo has some huge pitfalls of its own. `uint64` is out there, whether certain Java folks like it or not. It's there in protobuf, it's there in your databases, it's there in your FFI. This leaves people who have to interoperate with things from Java with the choice of either using `long` and hoping beyond hope your users read the docs, or using BigInteger and taking the accompanying performance hit, plus more correctness problems if your users try to operate on the value and take it outside its range.

The Java version of unsigned integers could completely disallow casting to and from signed integers and they would still be a very useful addition to the language.

Instead what's going to happen is we're going to get JEP 401 and you'll have a hundred different uint64 primitive classes that are exactly the same as each other except that they have different types. That or we'll get lucky and they'll add one to the standard library, at which point everybody who confidently asserted that adding unsigned integers to Java was a bad idea will have to rationalize to themselves that it doesn't really constitute adding them to the language because they're not in the bytecode, or they're not accessible without an import, or something.
Depending on what you include I figure property taxes, insurance, ongoing maintenance of my house and property are a good $1K/month (obviously with a fair bit of lumpiness for large projects). Some things you can postpone and some things you can trade money for your time & effort but it's still a non-trivial amount.
That was many years ago when Twitter had fewer employees.

Thanks! I have some questions about integrating ECS with cross-platform concerns.

How did you tackle the problem of components containing geometry for platform-specific graphics engines? Does Bevy use platform-specific components? If an application needs multiple offscreen textures to compose a frame, are there components that contain metadata for which passes they belong to (so, now, platform and pass specific components)?
> I have a lot of cognitive dissonance associated with that.

Play the cards you're dealt.

Rate of capital is intended to exceed rate of labor. If you're from a working class background, its common to think more labor = more rate of labor .... and that's it. Not how the higher rate transitions into more capital earning more than the labor.
WASM can manipulate the DOM. You just need a bit of javascript glue that you don't need to worry about.
Yeah but that future is probably a long ways off, if it ever comes at all. Currently ESBuild has 5x as many npm installs as Rome and SWC combined, and the gap doesn't seem to be shrinking https://npmtrends.com/@swc/core-vs-esbuild-vs-rome
The people who build, own, and operate the very luxury services (such as culinary destinations) that contribute to an area's reputation as "one of the most desirable areas in one of the most desirable cities located in one of the most desirable geographies in the wealthiest country on earth" should be able to afford living there.
It's not the money, it's that I'm tired of believing companies "we won't track you", especially when it's that easy, with login required.
Sometimes people worry that they are a little broken for not feeling compassion or empathy for others, and one way to feel better is to decide that anyone who does feel empathy is a liar engaged in virtue signaling. "It's not that I am wrong for not caring for the downtrodden, it's that neither of us cares, but I am honest about it and you are a liar."
Not Springfield but basically the same thing. I don't feel like sharing that kind of info here. Go down the list of former industrial cities that make white collar Boston types squeamish and it'll probably be on the list. They're all pretty close to the same in my experience.
Yes! that too. I would be mentally panicking about what they thought because I wasn't saying anything and the pause was getting more and more awkward, but he didn't seem bother by it at all.

100x was rhetorical. It's not a public company anymore, so we can't know. But if the headlines reporting a 40% drop in revenue are true, that would bring the net loss from 200M a year to 2.2B a year, which would be 10x worse (though I don't even know if you were being that specific in your critique), but that also doesn't take into account whatever he saved from chopping headcount.
Most people just want to be listened to. If you truly want to help just being a sympathetic ear is “the solution“, not what you imagine the “logical approach” to be.

Most people hate being given advice they didn’t ask for. Even when they ask they probably don’t actually want advice and probably won’t take it.

If I feel super compelled I phrase it something like this: “Do you mind if I tell you what worked for me in that situation?” And I don’t push it at all.
I bake my own bread. It's very little work. The problem is the time commitment.

You need to be there for a large part of the process. The first mixing and kneading takes the longest, maybe 5 minutes. After that every 20 minutes you need to come and fold for a minute 3 times. After that, let it rest for 8-16h (depending on dough temperature, amount of yeast, environment temperature). Then you do another 2 minutes of work. Half an hour later preheat the oven. Half an hour later put it in.

Doing this over night you save a lot of time. I.e. you can start at 8pm and finish by 8am-9am if you wake up at 6am. But a lot of people can't stay home that long in the morning.

So it's very little work in essence, but it's spread over a whole day. Perfect if you work remotely. Takes less time than most coffee breaks. But you need to be home.
TLDR; let me guess, buying a house is a very wrong to do thing, Renting is always better. Circle is complete. You will own nothing and will be happy, everything will be available to rent ...
That was 6 months ago offer asking now and you will get it
As long as the shallow base game still has more gameplay hours than most games I don't think people mind additional (also needing to be worthwhile) content costing money. That's Paradox's general business model and I think it works great for the types of games. I think I have nearly all of the optional content for Cities Skylines now but dollars per hour I'm still doing better than when it launched and when it launched the dollars per hour was still significantly lower than traditional games.

Looking at Metropolis 1998 my feedback would be I'm excited for the concept of a modern take on retro builders but I'm worried the gameplay will end up more "2D grid traffic simulator" than city builder. "Traffic simulator" can be a key layer for city builder die-hards but I'm hesitant that a 2D grid approach would be more interesting than base CS1, particularly with a free mod that simulates traffic more realistically (albeit not as performant what you can do with the traffic and road designs in 3D freeform is also much more interesting). I'll keep an eye on it though, it may be something I pick up in the future as it materializes :).

Great Idea.
I have a usecase where I have more than 15 API's and several Postgres tables.

Web UI with a form + Table Exploration from Database would be great.
Or else your site for logged out users will go down for an hour?

What was the reason when Twitter went down pre-Elon?

I really don't see the reason for this artificial drama. Do other "X service is down" threads go this way?

People say Elon is dramatic, but this thread is honestly ridiculous and way more dramatic than anything I've seen him post.
I also hope that they'll let us build more "european" cities that aren't so horribly car centric and are more diverse.

Hopefully we also get a bit more diversity of gameplay - Skylines got pretty repetitive quickly with only challenge being traffic optimization. The new DLCs didn't really add that much to gameplay except different things to paint between roads. I hope things like universities, industry, agriculture, airports, etc. become a an actual challenge to build, fund and retain - maybe pull in some things from the Anno series to make it happen.
> People aren't paid by how hard they work, they're paid by how much money they generate and how hard they are to replace.

On average, this may be true, although "how hard they are to replace" is difficult to quantify and most of the scarcity is artificial. But there is enormous variability in the relationship between pay and revenue/profits provided and opportunities for replacement.
I am certainly paid much more than I should be, since I work in a cost center and in that group I am definitely not the one bringing in work or revenue, and I suspect I would be very easy to replace. But at the time the contract was signed, I had the right certifications (e.g., PhD) and the right resume. Like many others, though.

Would love to play this on my m2 mac, but i'm assuming its windows or console only? Or do we think this would be available on Apple devices?

In the US in many places trash disposal is a flat rate included in your utility bill, rolled up into your rent, or you have a common dumpster area you can throw trash into for free. This isn't Switzerland where you have to pay two bucks for a LICENSED small plastic trash bag. Here you can generate as much residential trash as you want for the same price or for free if you drive the trash to the county dump yourself. You have to call the county to schedule a pickup of huge trash like for appliances if your new appliance delivery people won't take your old stuff.

In most cities there are usually many options for restaurants nearby and Uber Eats for anything further out. For everyone else there's McDonalds and friends: https://www.qsrmagazine.com/content/ranking-top-50-fast-food...
> return as “consultants” and charge very high rates to fix issues as they occur.

I'm sure there are some people who would do that, but those opportunities become very expensive-to-impossible when you burn bridges the way certain new management has. People hold personal value on things like respect and principle that can make them behave "irrationally" in naive analyses like this.
https://bevyengine.org/learn/book/introduction/

The problem is that "the prototyping phase" isn't a real phase, and this doesn't specify if breaking changes will occur between major, minor, or patch versions. It gives developers no guidance of what semver to track based on their own willingness to endure breaking changes. Using a library that still can't tell you that is just asking for trouble.
I just pulled up plenty of 2bd rentals on zillow for under $2,500 with a short commute. Am I missing something here? Or does being a head chef mean you should be able to afford rent on top of the restaurant you serve?
