All of those things as far as I can tell can rise with wage increases as they will get more use? Except for Fixed Tariffs

So I think your observations can be broadly true and also that if you caught the people who are chronically homeless as they were falling out of being homed they would seem way less insane and their problems would be far more tractable

Some states (montana Minnisota although the later is less likely to succeed imo) have started doing this at a state wide level, I think Cali has a particularly uphill battle since the housing situation is already bad and the headwind that w

Other people have linked good articles, but a good way to think about it is in Japan and West Virginia they have almost no homelessness and in both those places its very easy to rent a studio for under 300$ a month. Even for someone addicte

You don't understand Nevermind wasn't actually all that good Bandwagonesque BY Teenage Fanclub was actually better and more instrumental into turning the early 90s into an audio experience.

This sentence translates to "lol u mad bro" That is I think you are trying to defend someone indefensible position (a google engineer taking a kinda normal ai chatbot conversation and claiming that the AI is alive) by ignoring the

The magic the gathering subreddit has to moderate out the word "proxy" or risk getting banned. seems plausable like there are just a lot of speicfic rules you gotta follow to be a subreddit

I wonder if there are other things we'd do with land if the price of land came down Maybe we'd see more communes (or charter cities)? I know for a fact there are people constantly looking for places to buy and if things were chea

My hot take about this is that banning this stuff before it spread would have tamped down on all the stupidity going around, but once people know about it doesn't really make a difference to ban it.

> having a romantic and sexual relationship is not a requirement for a happy life. I don't have the all data off hand (see some citations below) but I believe they say married men live longer, commit less crimes and are happier. So
