Take a look at this dashboard, specifically the bottom right section. The last 3 days, it seems that the number of reported cases is going down quite steeply. https://www.arcgis.com/apps/opsdashboard/index.html#&

I rarely if ever buy new clothes (maybe a few times per decade). And, even on those rare occassions when I do, for jeans, its usually a used clothing store for less than 10$. As for t-shirts, I think I have a lifetime supply already (20 o

So, on the one hand, people react with aghast to find out that a bottle of Purrel soap costs 20$, when it actually should cost 2$ to produce. But, here in CA, on the other hand, when a House (something far more crucial to people's live

The crazy thing here is that they go after these gougers so aggressively for just selling a 20$ bottle of soap. And yet, predatory hospitals in the US can do x1000 times worse and not even get a slap on the hand. Hospitals are the #1 caus

i don't understand how knowing that you have the virus makes it less likely that you will die from it. There's no cure right? and at this point, anyone with a flu or cold will assume they have it and act accordingly, right?

I don't think getting rid of the people who know the system best will help anything. Some new guy who comes in with no clue of what happened or any of the codebase is not going to do a better job. It's just going to reduce long

I completely agree with the sentiment to build more, much more housing. But, in order to make that happen, we also need to: - get rid of or modify zoning laws (at least in places where growth will happen) - reduce regulations on builders -

the first thing you should do is talk to customers, or potential customers. don't make the mistake of building something people don't want. I know your currently thinking: "this is a product people will definitely want beca

having to live in the "most expensive and exclusive city in the country" is not a plus. I'd take shelter over Iphone any day of the week. Most of All 6 of the things I mentioned haven't improved much in the last 50 years

where do you plug in the laptop to make that video chat, when you have no house to stay in? All our modern day luxuries are contingent upon access to basic shelter. That shelter is harder to get than it has been for a long time: at least i

People can't arbitrarily choose where they want to live. People have to go where the jobs are, otherwise there's no money to pay for the house. Having more unaffordable overly fancy michelin star restaraunts nearby doesn't r

I don't see that happening at all currently. The housing market is insane in the bay area, as usual, even out here in the tri-valley area. as far as livermore, houses are selling like hot-cakes, not even on the market for a week.

Eat lots of fruits and veggies. try to make 50% of your diet fruits and veggies. the other 50% should be Whole grain, beans, nuts/seeds. if fruits and veggies don't sound appealing, it's usually because someone's taste

the thing is, it takes a decade of delay for this to set in because fast-food and other harmful food like substances are much more harmful in child hood. So, if you were raised descently well on normal food until your 20s, then started eat

absolutely. When my family goes out to eat, we usually only order 1 meal and split it between the 3 of us, the meals are that HUGE. half the family don't get what they want, but it is cost effective.

but it doesn't have to be that way. We're using up barely like 2 or 3 percent of the land in the US. We can simply build more cities and there will be more than enough land for everyone. by artificially keeping people penned in

You know there's something seriously wrong with the state of the housing industry (how it's regulated, zoning, etc), when our only hope is to hope for a Recession or worse.

What we have now is much worse than a housing bubble. We have a severe housing crisis caused by lack of supply, regulation, zoning and thus costs to build. The difference is: Even if no one can afford housing: There doesn't have to be
