Now compare your Forester to the V8 Charger with the base Hemi. Who would win?

You can avoid this by not buying a home that is covered by a HOA.

Snark aside, it's clear this guy hasn't thought out how condos will operate without a HOA. Going after SFH HOAs may be the best initial play here.

As soon as a local LLM that can match Claude Codes performance on decent laptop hardware drops, I'll bow out of using LLMs that are paid for.

I really don't like this. This will inevitable expand beyond child porn and terrorism, and it'll all be up to the whims of "AI safety" people, who are quickly turning into digital hall monitors.

At this point, the new crop of AI enhanced design tools are basically skipping vector based design and jumping right to code. A lot of them are using ShadCN/UI which is styled using Tailwind, so it's more like designers are somewhat unknowingly getting onto the same page as Tailwind.

>no payroll tax

Is this for real? Companies don't have to pay payroll tax on H1Bs?

You're saying this in jest, but I would LOVE to have a nuclear reactor in my backyard that produced enough power to where I could have a minisplit for every room in my house, including the garage so I could work out in there.

I'm glad to see that someone else took issue with the Auto Layout part of this article. The shape, text, and grouping tools are all there and nothing is stopping anybody from using them to create new interfaces that have approximately zero auto snapping.

Nobody can answer any of these questions because they've been misled by misinformation which has ironically been promoted by the same people who bleat about misinformation on a daily basis.

As a product designer, I'm seriously looking at using Lovable for quick ideation and prototyping. Showing users a series of Figma screens can be nice, but virtually everybody responds better to an interactive prototype.

I'm just a hobbyist, but I keep getting the error "The code change produced by Gemini cannot be automatically applied. You can manually apply the change or ask Gemini to try again". I assume this is because the service is being slammed?

Edit: I should mention that I'm accessing this through Gemini Code Assist, so this may be something out of your wheelhouse.

Good, that's the way it should be. If EVs are the future of personal vehicles (and I think they will be), then there's all the reasons to trade short term pain for long term gain.

>But, in the case of software development, only those builders are getting a nice subsidy.

This is why I can't support re-implementing Section 174. Software engineers are now being treated in the tax code like everybody else, and they don't like that change.

The national average salary is $63,795 [0], so they're making about $4k more. Just because they're not earning 6 figures working in their first tech job doesn't mean that it's bad.

>I remember earning nearly exactly that wage back in the early 2000s, and barely making ends meet in a cheap rental

I made $10/hr my first job after college while living in a studio by myself in 2011 (and that was with student loan payments!), and I was barely able to get by, so how were you barely able to get by then on almost $70k a year?

When you say that you put a layer of old paper boxes against weeds, does that mean you put the broken down boxes first, and the put the compost on the top? If so, were the seedlings able to sink their roots through the paper boxes and go deeper into the ground?

Also, what cover crops did you introduce?

I feel like the groups bringing this lawsuit think that it will force changes that will make rentals cheaper, when it reality it'll probably be easier for the city to simply change the laws around residential property taxes to match what's there for rentals today.

>As a YIMBY, ADUs are an introductory "first step" policy that should obviously be legal, but were never expected to have any real effect.

This is such a weird thing to say. Why would lawmakers ever want to support a new YIMBY policy when the people that support them openly admit that it was never meant to achieve what they claimed was going to achieve?

I've heard that people who use these programming assistants during interviews are quickly weeded out. Is this not true?

>The "anti-woke" crusaders are honestly more unbearable than any social justice warrior type I've met because they will not shut up about it and it colors their whole life.

I'm the complete opposite. Swap "anti-woke" with "social justice warrior" and you have my experience across multiple years, both inside and outside of companies.

Not surprising in the slightest. Let's hope the legislature delivers the recommendation that the office is asking for, hopefully this'll help slow the raise in insurance rates and get people off of Citizens.

>have the same situation, but with flood insurance

It's not flood insurance (that's federal), it's hurricane insurance, which is technically wind. I feel that Florida is a bit ahead of California due to the larger insurance price increases. That being said, we're not out of the woods yet, but the reforms from a few years ago seem to be making some progress.

>I wish one of these venues would have the conviction to put their whole kit in Dallas, or somewhere else in TX, but the industry would throw a fit because of what it would mean for the cost to access the market.

I realize this is probably super complex, but can you explain this more? Specifically, what does cost mean in this context? Is this in terms of listing on an exchange, or cost benefit such as being physically further away from NYSE or Nasdaq?

I think the parent is referring to Washington State, not Michigan.

I left Michigan about 3 years ago after living around Detroit for 7 years. Tech jobs there are primarily with the Big 3, and the cult known as Rocket. There are places like Ann Arbor, but again, the opportunities are limited.

As for Detroit itself, I feel like I've seen this headline every year for the past decade. I'm not saying that Detroit hasn't made progress (it absolutely has, go visit the refurbished train station), but compared to other cities it's still lagging.

>Engineers are in a better position to understand what the customer wants and needs.

This is one of the key competencies of UX professionals, specifically UX researchers.

>it is the US you have to convince to move faster...LNG exports must be prevented and substitutes found

>Europeans have, for the most part, done very well

These exports are happening because Europe has replaced its Russian gas with American gas.

Looks like it's done for. Am curious whether the mentioned layoffs may actually happen or whether U.S. Steel is just bluffing.

>should be eligible for a $4,000 used EV tax credit (if your income is under $150k):

This is only true if you do a joint file. If you're a single filer, it phases out once your income is above $75k, or $112k for heads of household.

As an admitted Dreamcast fanboy, I love seeing work like this.

Fine, I'll bite: why is this an issue and why does it need to be addressed?
