RyanGooslingon The Joy of Fuck-You Money (2018)

So being a current homeowner, do I have a financial interest in preventing new houses from being built?

I remember, back around 2008, houses were popping up everywhere. You don't really see much of that anymore, at least in my experience. ALSO, lumber prices are HIGH and its not as profitable to build new houses, at the moment. But what if this is a larger lumber shortage/sustainability issue? What then?

Could it be a mix of material supply issues and interest groups that are maintaining a housing shortage?

RyanGooslingon You might not need machine learning

> Machine learning is a set of techniques developed to attack modeling problems that traditional algorithms couldn't solve. So if the algorithm was developed and used before computers it definitely isn't machine learning.

Wtf are you doing man?

RyanGooslingon Hyperapp – A tiny framework for building web interfaces

The DOM API is useful and usable. Oh and software built on it is maintainable because it's a standard. Software "devs" toiling about with their transient libraries are writing code that goes unmaintainable once the "next new thing" comes out and all the sheep flock to that. The spec creators are the only ones with logic and rational in the whole web dev "ecosystem"/culture/whatever.

RyanGooslingon Zuckerberg says employees moving out of Silicon Valley may face pay cuts

The rent you pay into the SF housing (renter) market is half your value.

You pay the Administration that owns that real estate a large portion of your salary.

RyanGooslingon Zuckerberg says employees moving out of Silicon Valley may face pay cuts

The Administration owns the land and property. They need the high salaried employees to stick around town to pay the exorbitant rents.

I hope that helps tie things together for you.
