I've been fortunate to have a personal house we rented out, and also have insight into a larger organisation that has multiple properties to rent.

The difference between the two is the risk of a bad tenant.

With my personal property we were fortunate to never have a really bad tenant. We had high ish turnover (it's a starter home, indeed was our starter home, so typically people grow out of it.) we'd lose a month or so if rent between tenants, there would be some money spent on maintainence and so on. Our time was uncoated.

We have strong tenant laws here, so if you geg a bad tenant, who literally just stops paying, it can take months of lost rent, and significant legal fees to get an eviction. Bizarre as it sounds its cheaper to _pay_ a bad tenant to leave than drag it out in the courts.

For institutions this is a cost of doing business, and is factored into overall rent.

If a private owner encounters such a situation it basically causes them to sell out - one more private property goes into institutional hands.

In other words private owners don't understand the risks and "hidden costs". As long as they only gave good tenants things are rosy. First bad one, and they exit the supply chain (and have lots of good horror stories for their mates.)

So I think your cause/effect is backwards. Good tenant laws (which I think are generally a good thing for good tenants) can make house-rental unattractive to individuals. Resulting in mostly "for profit" housing supply. Plus good tenants subsidise bad ones.

Ironically strong tenant laws also make it a _very_ tough market for new, or risky, tenants. Landlords understand the high costs involved, and do become very risk-adverse with applicants. Which is bad if you have high risk factors (like self-employment).

It's a very delicate balance to get tight. We need strong tenant protections, but we also need some landlord protections to keep the market in balance.
It's a problem on mobile, because old-reddit isn't mobile-engineered and there isn't uBlock for iOS. The go-to Reddit app for iOS is Apollo, and they're going to be affected.

Coal has decreased in germany since the beginning of the nuclear phaseout.

The recent uptick (still less than it decreased by) has a lot more to do with decreased hydro and gas, as well as exports to replace missing nuclear generation elsewhere.
> It is also true for the reals. R^2 can be trivially mapped to R.

> Here's one mapping from R to R^2:

That's the easy part. It's very easy to map R to R^2, the other direction not so much.

From my searches, based upon what other people said, the mapping is a surjection and not a bijection.

If that's the case, then either they don't have the same cardinality or I'm confused as to what cardinality actually is.

> So...it's worth saying this out loud: we have no absolutely no good evidence that we need to keep re-dosing these vaccines. None.

This is absolutely incorrect, unless you're using a sleight of hand by using "keep redosing" to refer to a strawman of continuous indefinite dosing (something nobody has proposed).

There is copious evidence that a third dose provides lasting, long-term benefits in humans. There is also evidence that the bivalent booster - which may eventually replace the first dose, as more data comes in - provides significant benefit in adults as well.

It absolutely does. There is tons of normal content that is tagged as NSFW for various non pornogrpahic reasons, and consdering 'regular users' includes the millions of people that use apollo, Rif, etc , thats a huge amount of the user base negatively effected.

Isn't this the cardinal sin of an image host? They are partially killing links in a way that wasn't previously communicated. And to make it worse, it directly targets what was previously the primary strength of the site, easy and accountless uploads with only a few clicks. Why would anyone use them as an image host again?

I wonder if they are hemorrhaging money. This decision gives the impression that they simply don't want to be in the business they're currently in. Such drastic steps usually originate with desperation.
I'm trying to take the most charitable interpretation possible instead of assuming malice on the part of reddit, but it's difficult to interpret it any other way than they have decided to kill 3rd party clients and not be upfront about their intentions.

It wouldn't be so difficult to swallow if the official mobile app was high quality, but it isn't. There are major UX issues with the official app that haven't been fixed for years. The 3rd party app ecosystem is vibrant because of this. Instead of competing and being the best on merit, they have decided to play their platform-owner veto card which is very disappointing, compounded with their dishonesty about the true intent of these changes.

Telling people they're in "pity city" doesn't pay the bills either. It's obviously made things worse. Patronizing your employees is needless and poor leadership.

That said, it's far from the most egregious thing I've heard, I'm not going to spend many cycles thinking about it. But I can understand why the employees would be upset by it.
It's pretty common to use alt accounts to upvote and comment on your own posts - I used to do this when I cared. Some people take it really far and have their alts also repost their content to get multiple shots to "go viral." Some people also make down vote networks to silence comments they don't like.

Recently, I have used these accounts to get answers to questions: post the question with one account and ~3 bad but assertive answers with other accounts, and that's usually enough to get at least one response from someone who knows the right answer and wants to prove they are smart. All of this can now be done very easily by ChatGPT, too - it used to take effort.

This is the "dark" part of social media marketing that nobody talks about but a lot of people engage in.
Or manufacture controversy for engagement?
For example, I posted the 4 comments above all from accounts I own (/s)

Right but what you paid for was not the outputs of the employee, you paid for the inputs of the employee -- meaning the employee's time spend on the work.

Time spent is NOT an asset, it is consumed, hour by the hour. It is an expense.

It is not an asset also because you can not choose to sell it to someone else and thus recoup the money you have placed on it.
The chairs were always overhyped anyway
How did you do these things, though? E.g. traveling is incredibly easy nowadays with smartphones and flying by plane. Have you biked across Euroasia with no internet access and and paper guidebooks? There's a good chance that magic of not knowing what comes next will come back when you ditch the GPS and internet.

btw, I know the other commenters mean well with sharing their experiences, but to be blunt, folks should not be having kids because there's something missing.
The reference being someones ass crack having a picture taken without their consent and posted for millions to see, which is why the OP of that time got banned temporarily i think for that. Its pretty hypocritcal of imgur to use that image , and somewhat ironic to use it in this TOS update
One way to do that is fix their own mobile app so it's not a pile of trash. I wouldn't mind seeing the ads if the app was as good as Apollo.

This is a fantastic time to be alive and prepared to start the third generation of internet companies. You've got Google in a panic against OpenAI, Meta is imploding, Twitter is imploding, Reddit can't help but drive users away, and now least of all Imgur also deciding to follow them off the cliff; I genuinely feel blessed to watch these companies tear themselves apart.

Like in all things; we, the data hoarders, the open source community, the hackers, the archivists, were here before them; and we'll be here after them. Like watching pigs roll in the mud.
Why I Like Clojure
I think “Urkelization” is covered by the Breakout Character trope[1]:

“What's a writer to do when a minor character that they created for a show suddenly becomes much more popular than the other members of the cast? Why, re-write them as a main character, of course! This is that character[…]other characters in the cast might be Demoted to Extra[2] due to their reduced roles and screentime[…]the popularity of the character has to have influenced the direction of the narrative and put them into a major role, or led to the creation of new content specifically for them.”

I’d say there’s also shades of Spotlight-Stealing Squad[3].

Seems like you're just arguing about the definition of the word "mistake". Intent has nothing to do with it. From Google (Oxford Dictionary):

> an action or judgment that is misguided or wrong.

So to admit that you made a mistake just means you were "misguided or wrong" which he definitely made clear he was. You're claiming that there was significant time to reconsider but the reality is that this all went down in a matter of hours from when the intern published his article. Sometimes people have bad judgement and the public and especially one's peers can help to see the error of their ways and improve for the better. If he was a repeat offender and this happened several times then I could totally understand it but there's no reason to keep bringing this up every single time anything related to Replit is mentioned on HN.
I know you are "kidding", but that seems like it would be a one of a kind experience I'd be interest in trying.

Yes and no, IMO. While these are different classifications, some concepts can be cross applied.

Decentralized essentially means absence of built-in omniscient entity - each end every connection is treated as one between equally correct peers. It does not mean that a pair of entities cannot establish hierarchy, it simply means they do not have to.

Take git for example. There is nothing forcing us to treat github/gitlab/etc as the omniscient node even if it is central point of data exchange - you are free to disagree with the upstream changes. Local data is always there, all local overwrites are explicit and so on. Contrast this with something like online game. The server will tell the client what their state is - there is a central entity controlling the truth.

Web can be interesting in this context, since there are multiple "tiers" of nodes: user applications, backend servers, databases. Data control and conflict resolution properties usually are different among nodes in the same tier and between tiers.

>We need to federalize zoning just like Japan.

Nit-pick: Japan does not have "federalized zoning", or federalized anything. Japan does not have a federal government; nor, does Ireland, nor most other countries in the world. This is an Americanism (though it applies to Germany too). In most countries, which have unitary governments, the top-most level of government is the "national government", so what you want is "nationalized zoning".

Anyway, yes, Japan's nationalized zoning is great. We're not having the ridiculous housing problems I keep reading about in western nations. However, it does have its detractors, like westerners vising Japan and then whining about how all the buildings look so different from each other and there's no "character". If you want historically-preserved neighborhoods, or neighborhoods where all the buildings have the same theme and architectural style, you won't find it in most of Japan.
With a decent implementation the integrated Gpu should be able to d3 cold sleep at incredibly low power usage. If this isn't the case it seems like a defect.

AMD has definitely scaled up but a configurable 10W TDP hardly seems like a showstopper. It's a little hard to know what TDP really means these days, which complicates, but it feels like some give/take in design to handle a 10W chip should be managable.

Overall good post & a great different view. I'm not convinced of either your view nor what I've said. It just doesn't feel like it should be a huge blocker as is. And it feels like there should be better than 10 year old offerings that would work.

It's a bit silly for me to raise this stance on this website, but I'm so sick and tired of tech luminaries giving life advice.

It's all so flat and tasteless. It lacks character, it assumes such basic goals for human beings as happiness or money. They all write like they're handing in some kind of flavorless college freshman's book report.

I don't know where the truly philosophical individuals are these days but they certainly aren't heading up tech companies.

Want life advice? Start looking into the history of philosophy and read it widely and deeply. The words are powerful and there's no underlying assumption that life is reducible to making it out the best way we can in the current dominant socio-economic structure; they actually suggest that, gasp dominant systems and structures might not be serving people well. People actually believed in this thing called meaning and thought about how to pursue it beyond fulfilling prescribed roles and desires.

It's so arrogant of these founders to suggest that their personal experience in capitalism is extractable to some set of general principles worthy of moralization. Worse, they do it with the literary style of a lemming. At least the moralists of the 16th and 17th centuries knew how to construct a pithy, catchy aphorism when they were dolling out vague advice. Sheesh.

In civilized parts of the world you cannot fire anyone except for in specific circumstances.

There's always another option: restructuring (the organization, compensation structures, product portfolios and market positioning...), getting in the trenches (understanding that performance fundamentally depends on emotional state)... The "math" tells you where you are, and it can illustrate that you sometimes work within real limitations, but it doesn't define how you should react.

Sorry, no. You don't need state-level zoning, you can do it all at the national level.

I don't think it's the audience, it's the writers. The original show-writers usually don't last more than a couple seasons. This is why third seasons always suck. Each new generation of writers home in on specific traits to get scripts written, which naturally gets exaggerated every year as writers shuffle in and out. There are probably character summaries to get new writers up to speed which make this process even more explicit.
