People who intend to continue living somewhere don't care about the price of their asset per se (they're not going to sell it), and dense zoning tends to increase land prices anyway. Opposition to density is about quality of life.

In a related phenomenon, people will pay more to be around better neighbors (which you can see reflected in price differences across similar houses in similar areas but in different school catchment areas). It makes some sense that people will pay as much as they can to be in a better area with better kids when you look at the state and direction of public education. If you can't afford private school, that's basically your only lever to try to buy quality. If you can, you still have a tradeoff that you could spend ~13k/yr/kid on tuition or add 200k/kid to your home budget to live in an area with better public schools. Living in a more affluent area carries other QoL benefits as well of course.
I always carry around a black & blue pen (and sometimes red, I like pens*). At some point I got into the habit of always using blue to sign; not clear why. I distinctly remember signing something in blue and then having to do it all over again because they insisted that I only use black ink. I am now suspicious of this this past event..

That’s true, but to be fair my original comment also said posts would be reliably associable with other posts from the same IP. With CGNAT, that association will be slightly less reliable, but not meaningfully so. The segment of the population who posts on 4chan is so low that there is negligible chance of two 4chan users sharing an exit IP and time window. Even with non-overlapping time windows, the population will be low enough for stylometry (and other factors) to remove any remaining ambiguity.

Every time there is the potential for a correction (2008 being close to mind) the government just hands the banks a ton of taxpayer money because they're "too big to fail".

So I wouldn't expect a correction until the US is unable to borrow more money or defaults on its debt.

Much like climate change it will already be too late by the time young people have the power to change it. So I'm not surprised many of them have sort of checked out from the "spouse/house/kids" grift/grind

> throw out people's stake in how their lives are run

FWIW, you're talking to a professional musician. Ostensibly, the IP complex is designed to protect me. I cannot fathom how you can regard it as the "people's stake in how their lives are run". Eliminating copyright will almost certainly give people more control over their digital lives, not less.

One of the things it took a little time to wrap my head around when I started working at Google was trading off reliability or correctness for scaling.

I had previously built things like billing systems and small-scale OLTP web applications, where the concept of even asking the question of whether there could be any acceptable data loss or a nonzero error rate hadn't occurred to me. It was eye-opening to see, not so much that if you're doing millions of qps, some are going to fail, but more the difference in engineering attitude. Right this instant, there are probably thousands of people who opened their Gmail and it didn't load right or gave them a 500 error. Nobody is chasing down why that happened, because those users will just hit reload and go on with their day. Or from another perspective, if your storage has an impressive 99.99999% durability over a year, when you have two billion customers, 200 people had a really miserable day.

It was a jarring transition from investigating every error in the logs to getting used to everything being a little bit broken all the time and always considering the cost before trying to do something about it.
ouch.

That is evil.

Then again, that alone us not enough for russia to strike at someone: they have more than one group of openly nazi (by western standards) soldiers fighting against Ukraine, most famously rusisch.

No, that's how ownership of internet accounts works. Ownership of real estate is based on completely different principles; there is no earthly reason you'd need the previous owner to be involved. Who owns what real estate is a matter of public record.

Geometric line-art of Wacław Szpakowski (2017)
The problem isn't with governments. It's with people.

Most people don't care about their privacy. Even if they do, the majority of that group don't care enough to give up the conveniences they get in exchange for it. This leaves a small group of people to fight for protecting their privacy, as well as of those who don't care about it. This is an uphill battle against trillion-dollar corporations and the governments they're in symbiosis with.

Some governments do make an effort, but it's too little, and too ineffective to matter in the grand scheme of things. I wouldn't expect this to improve, and can easily see it getting worse. I hope I'm just being pessimistic.

Those licenses will now be used to sell that content/data for purposes that nobody thought about when you started your account.

I have always found articles/discussions of code reviews fascinating. In the 10(ish) years I've been employed as a programmer I've never worked in a department with more than ten people and every time the work is distributed such that each person works as an IC on their own siloed project(s). Receiving anything besides the "LGTM" rubber stamp or nitpick comment seems almost impossible.
I viewed the full interview. He doesn't fully mention the type of founders who have been "debanked," but he vaguely talks about it. They seem to have been involved in the pot and crypto businesses. These industries operate on the fringes; pot businesses aren't legal at the federal level, and crypto is still new and fraught with fraud. He's presenting a hazy view, playing the victim without providing all the facts. Also, his fight should be with Congress, which has the power to legalize pot and crypto at the federal level. He's only giving a very vague one side of the story.
> Doesn’t this make the case specifically for better government and regulations rather than more “competition”?

Yes, we need 'better government and regulations', not just 'more regulations'. It's literally the current government's regulation changes which allowed the insane levels of immigration, TFWs, students, etc.

If you're doing that, though, you'd better dang well give me secure key storage in the Kernel, too, or full TLS capability. Allow my program to n load it's RSA/ECC key at startup, then drop privileges to access that file, and have a kernel module handle the cryptography.

> A correction won't occur because there is a housing shortage of between 3-8M units, depending on who you ask.

I'm not from the US, and unfamiliar with the statistics, but in NZ the general narrative has been similar - i.e. "the property price boom was due to a shortage caused by an increase in population and a lack of new stock".

For NZ, this doesn't hold up when looking at actual statistics.

- Prices rose x4 between 1995 and 2021 (inflation adjusted).

- The total number of households to total number of dwellings remained relatively unchanged over the same period.

- The average household size remained steady (i.e. it's not just a case of each dwelling housing more people).

Given the above (and some other evidence), my assumption is that the property boom was not driven by increased demand for homes, but by steadily declining interest rates causing an increase in demand for investments. If this is true, and we are at the end of the era of ever decreasing interest rates, then I believe a correction is entirely possible (it is well underway in NZ - 30% down in 3 years in my city).

I would be interested to know what makes the US situation so different (my feeling is that the situation in most anglo countries is similar - if not so extreme as NZ with regard to price rises and population increases).

I don't know which developers you talked to. Honestly I should just flag this reply probably.

It's nothing surprising in .NET land. If you target netstandard2.0 the library will work on any version from .NET Framework 4.6.1 and upwards. For many newer features there are compat and polyfill pacakges too - that's one of the strengths to be able to use them even on the older targets.

All newer targets are forward compatible anyway. Wherever the notion of otherwise comes from it is likely a misunderstanding or trolling.

You can't make a serious argument when comparing baseline experience where .NET confidently places next to Cargo and Golang's user experience with the level of productivity it provides for setting up and managing projects and dependencies, building them and distributing them. JVM ecosystem still does not offer capability to properly and easily package the applications into a single binary except using very restrictive GraalVMs Native Image which does not have as wide ecosystem support as NativeAOT enjoys, and where it does not work .NET still gives you the ability to bundle managed assemblies into an executable together with runtime, apply trimming and get relatively compact result.
Another short answer is that actual inflation could be much larger than the "official" inflation numbers use for these calculations.

Hmm. I’m feeling a bit worried about discussing this topic in this much detail. I’m sure it is just pure intelectual curriosity for you but many reads this forum. If someone is thinking about any of this beyond a thought experiment please reach out to someone. I know the going can be incredibly hard sometimes but things can change with time.

I guess what you describe above sounds sensible. There are two practical problems with it.

One is that you are, by all evidence of your comment, an individual with above average inteligence and planning ability. I have a suspicion if we leave you on a deserted island in a few years you might be halfway on your way to your own iron age. Unfortunately not everyone who is smithen by devastating chronic suffering is as lucky as you are in that department. The rules of the society has to work for everyone, not just the smart ones. For each and everyone who thinks through what you did there are hundreds and hundreds who can’t and won’t.

Then the other problem, society wise, is that typically by the point someone reaches the end of the road and their illness is deemed incurrabble they are not well. Long illness weakened them, maybe they are paralysed, or blinded. What you describe is hard, but even harder if one does not have all their physical faculties. And that is very sad, but unfortunately that is the main case legislation like this aims at.

At least that is how I think about when i think about the purposes of such law.

* People where the expectations of the job are (honestly) different between employee and employer.
