You are going to have to cite "Many people love the suburbs" part. Most people live in the suburbs because that is the only cheap option available and that's because of zoning doesn't allow any other form of living. And

The ban on renting single family housing is just pure classism used as a way to ban people who can't afford a downpayment on a SFH to live in the same neighborhood. This is a supply issue and thus why people should be considering joini

How are they getting the prices for these? Is this run by Trader Joe’s? I hope someone isn’t manually updating these. Also won’t prices differ by location? So many questions.

Cars in general are just getting bigger and more expensive to repair while our insurance liabilities are not being scaled for that. On the flip side, I wish the fed gov't would regulate vehicle sizes such that we don't have such a

The fact that we need tech companies to build housing on behalf of the city is a huge policy failure. The city should have just rezoned many parts of the city a long time ago for mixed used. But instead the city and its residents has always

Weather isn’t the problem. Urban planning is problem and the United States does a terrible job of making transportation good for anyone but cars.

You can get them to stop talking to you by purposely bombing the coding challenge that they give out. That should do the trick.

It’s unfair to compare Lyft and Uber as the latter company is invested in more than just ride sharing.

Bicycling infrastructure goes together well with higher housing density. When you have higher housing density where people live near their jobs, they wouldn’t be a need for high speed streets that are in conflict with sharrows. Unfortunatel

So much for free tax filing. If you can't beat them, Intuit buys them out.

Depending on regulations of this, I doubt they can resell. Especially if each background check is done days apart from each other. You may run into a scenario where a felony case was recorded in between background checks.

I used to work in the background screening company before switching careers. The background screening process is very tedious, each state and sometimes counties keep records in their own way. If you are lucky, you can easily just search for

What about the web browser, how do you get around that? I still use it for various things albeit maybe only 10% of the time.

Seems like the credit and banking industry is so dependent on the credit bureaus. Is there a way we can have credit cards, loans and mortgages without the need of centralizing pii data?

"Most software failures and data breaches aren’t inevitable; they are a result of neglect and underinvestment in product reliability and security." How do we know that Equifax fell into this category? That this was due to negligen

Apache brings up a good point about having layers of security. I wonder how Equifax was storing the data. Was it just plain text files?

I think the banks and loan industry are as guilty for giving information like this out to ththe credit bureaus. Next time you apply for a loan or open a credit card, ask them who they report this too. If it's Equifax, walk away.

Make 110k, take home around 4800 month after taxes and maxed out 401k. Rent $1600 in SF (lucky here). But I still have over $2k month after all expenses. As a single person, I consider myself fortunate. People will complain about living exp

Housing is still expensive in socal with lower salaries. Anything in California is a bad deal in my opinion.

You really need to go see a tax lawyer and report back to us since I don't think anyone has a clear answer to this. As a non-lawyer, I don't understand how this will zero out your taxes. You will get X amount and then take a X ded

What happens after death? Do you simply cease to exist? What happens to your mind and soul? I'm not a religious person but sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night thinking about this. It's such a weird feeling when you thin

I used to drink coffee occasionally but if I take a break or drink too much I get really jittery and sick. So I'm not longer drinking it. Though I might have a half cup before the gym as a boost. As for alcohol, it's always presen

The best way to see if your company is willing to give out salary information to random verifiers, is to ask HR yourself. In most cases they would not give out that sensitive information unless they have a written consent specifically stati

I imagine the rating system would handle this effectively. I would really be annoyed if the driver was pulling the same stunts that was listed in the article.
