Reminds me of the Stop Killing Games movement. If you give people an end date, they can plan around it.
But rich cities can also have great public transit. New York, London, Paris, Berlin, Tokyo, Seoul, Beijing, Singapore... in fact rich cities with transit as awful as the Bay Area seem to be the exception, not the rule
You could get together in a big group and all say the same things in unison. Maybe even hold some signs saying those things
Your argument about increasing demand for services isn't convincing. Since there are more people in the area, should supply be higher as well, balancing prices? It seems more likely that costs are higher in cities…
I'm sure you're right about the declining quality of Camembert, but I can't help but be reminded of this comic: http://smbc-comics.com/comic/craproot
How does input work on iPhone? Keyboard overlay?
I didn't know Apple TV wasn't device exclusive until this comment
Tastes change. This isn't some engineering or logistics constraint; if plastic phones have a real advantage, adoption is simply a matter of marketing.
Sure, it's a sign that we don't "understand this stuff properly", but you can say the same about human brains. Is it a red flag that we use language to communicate with each other instead of manipulating nerve impulses…
I'm really confused about this. It's the slimmest possible veneer, collapsing upon a cursory browse of the commit history. Why put in the time to update at all?
> And usually having competitors is something that validates your market. Don't users validate your market? ChatGPT has plenty of users, so I would think competitors only hurt their value.
> If people didn't need cars, they wouldn't buy them. This is a chicken-and-egg problem. US cities have spent billions on highways and parking and rewrote ordinances to require low density, car-dependent development.…

I'm not an expert, but isn't the housing crisis global? From London to Mumbai, Barcelona to Shanghai, Amsterdam to Boston, the world's cities are becoming unaffordable. For the most part you can search "<city name>…
np- is acknowledging a difference between their job and the jobs of others. I think it's important to acknowledge those differences, especially since those other metaphorical crabs aren't getting out of the pot any time…
Absolutely agree. For most people, their entire OS is just now just a bootloader for their web browser. More and more I feel like downloading any program at all is treated like a "power user" task
If you'll indulge me an anecdote, my first KDE experience was noticing the icons were too small, setting fractional scaling, and watching the entire desktop bug out requiring several restarts. I immediately switched to…
If anyone else is curious, they're talking about this video (happens at 5m42s): (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z-o9MqN86eE#t=5m42s)
I'd use Bing's chat feature if it wasn't only available on Edge... I can't seem to get any Chromium browsers working well on my Fedora install. I already want to use Microsoft's search engine, why do they need me to use…
Was there a time when Gladwell wasn't political? The Tipping Point was his first book, and it helped popularize broken windows policing.
