One anecdote from one website is not a data set that generalizes onto a population.

The population received a significant sum of money but I haven’t seen a data set or statistic indicating people buying discretionary goods rather than paying rent.

Is there a data source for this claim?

Thank you. In my experience, policing extends into a number of mundane areas of life, few of which are life threatening emergencies. People can get police called for vomiting in the road, illegally selling sandwiches, or having a radio on too loud.

I think that part of their job is resolving violent or potentially violent conflict.

It’s true that perhaps my situation as described to the dispatcher might not have met a certain threshold, however, it would’ve made sense for them to ask more questions and give guidance as in general people have a bit of adrenaline when calling and might not be in the best shape to give a clear description. Immediately dismissing such scenarios could lead to some harmful results.

It was the emergency line. However, to me it was an emergency as they had 2 baseball bats and were in a group that I deemed as threatening. I began filming them at which point they became more aggressive. This was to have evidence in case they were damaging cars (including my own which was 3 feet away).

Agreed, at one point there were teenagers playing baseball in a half full parking lot. I told them to stop and they told me to f off and call the cops if I felt like it. So I did call the cops, and sure enough the support person got on my case and told me it wasn't an emergency in a really harsh manner.

I agree but also wish that a similar sentiment was applied to modern investment strategies.

True, I imagine that would be quite frightening and have a lot of data to support a number of initiatives that the population would vehemently disagree with.

Even in grade school, I remembered dreading when they would have us run a mile as fast as we could and record the times.

I agree. To me it seems as though a small handful of corporations owns a large percentage of multi-tenant housing and an increasing percentage of single tenant houses and is able to set prices algorithmically and that other landlords price similarly.

True, but I think the point was to be original and random and perhaps be popular as a result, rather than tailor everything for popularity.

In my experience, the data becomes quite limiting.

I’d think bonds.

I think the incremental ROI they would need to involve themselves in a new area would be pretty high. They aren’t going to dedicate a 9-10 digit sum to anything without expecting a much higher sum in return.

I’d be concerned about the ethics they apply to health products given the changes that have happened over the years with search, email, and android.

I agree except for the "turn into huge profits" phrase, at least for a lot of these companies.

"I heard AWS is single...."

Not something I'd expect from someone who has used DO for years.

I can’t imagine willingly paying more than 5 percent for the ability to manage these subscriptions.

I wish there was a methodology whereby a person could remove their personal data from fb given that they were unaware of what they were consenting to and that it changed over time.

Pre-COVID this was my exact approach. I felt like there was a certain sense of randomness and adventure that was inspiring towards whatever I was working on.

Exactly,and it's also intentionally misnamed as web3 as if it's an inevitable extension of current internet practices, rather than a scifi buzzword fantasy of a small pocket of investors (or small to moderate hedge of larger investors).

Agreed, the numbers indicate a pretty significant exodus although it seems as though the supply has decreased and the pricing has increased on both rentals and homes for sale.

Mathematically, the extent to which it happens and the duration don’t make much sense to me.

The one time I ran into a scenario like this it was an upper level executive looking to flex and show that they are the alpha. My manager and manager’s manager stayed after the meeting to tell him that my project met the specs perfectly. Later on I found out that every person who had been in the department over a year had gone through that exact scenario. I kept on working and ultimately it was fine, but the department had a lot of churn with people mentioning this practice in their exit interviews, end result was him getting promoted even higher.

Same, I tend to trust wikipedia and it hasn't been showing up nearly as much

Sometimes it seems as though cognitive dissonance and word-count go hand in hand.

Not something I’ve ever thought about but I think that it could be done via macro,

I have written tsql functions in c# and imagine that other dialects have analogous functionality.

It seems as though the point is to cut down on sql code, it’d also be possible to query the foreign keys and create a data structure that could feed a function for joins.

I haven’t thought out the specifics but think this type of approach would be more practical than changing the sql standard.

Is this not something that should be written at the app level rather than dml?

I had a computer become bricked from w10 updates taking too much space, luckily I was able to switch to linux

I wish more data was available for this phenomenon, I estimate the number of deaths would be surprisingly high.

Had the same thought but then thought that perhaps a smaller window upstairs opened mid-day would help airflow without affecting heat so much

True, I feel like removing 90 percent of my non-work internet usage would be very helpful.
