Yep, Lineage is available on a 5X, Samsung S7, LG G5, etc.. Libhybris/Halium uses the driver parts of AOSP if I understand correctly, and Lineage uses ART in addition, they are all dependent on AOSP in some way currently atleast. Googl

Yeah, it seems like mobile oses are about as common as Linux distros in 1995. Sailfish, Maru, lineage, among the two you mention. If you have a nexus 5 or one plus one, you're in luck. I recently tried lineage, ubports and plasma, and

Prop 13 is a factor: http://lao.ca.gov/Publications/Report/3497#Does_Proposition.... And overturning it for commercial real estate won't do much to help housing prices, except for any re-zoning that happens.

I played around with a solar savings calculator a while back out of curiosity, there is an excel spreadsheet on an Australian website I believe that's pretty thorough, but it's not the only one. In short, I don't think it pay

Here's the economist saying housing is fungible, just for you: https://www.economist.com/blogs/freeexchange/2014/04/housing... Did you read what I said enough to make a counterpoint with new informa

Are they both not housing? Can I not renovate one into another over a few weeks? I give developers more credit. If they want to make money, they need to figure out what the market will bare. And it's not their fault if only enough hous

I would say most bay area and CA cities pay their public sector employees rather well (with pensions). It's the artists, private-sector service employees, and other low-income jobs that are squeezed the most.

This would make sense if there was naturally 'cheap' housing and 'expensive' housing. There isn't. It's just housing. The fish analogy just doesn't work, we're talking about increasing supply of a dur

I don't think it's a scam. I would agree on rent control, but I think that has it's uses too in the current rental market.

Prop 13 affects all of CA, you don't see prices in LA going up 100% in 3-5 years like you do in most south bay cities.

BMR-renting makes sense at 25% or more. You can kick someone out in a yr. if they've started to earn more. You can rent at-cost, and not lose money like you would in a BMR sale. Wouldn't you rather be using the loan/tax subsi

It's not about you or a company, once the market tolerates non-competes, employers will use them for any sort of a knowledge-based position. People will shift jobs less, wages will lower, followed by other economic effects of slightly

It's the employees' choice, take a lifetime of lower earnings or not, everything else being the same.

There are also YIMBY orgs almost everywhere. The south bay YIMBY twitter account has updates on what you can do as well. From following the YIMBY movement ( http://www.slate.com/articles/business/metropolis/201

Nevada is too different, the combination of non-enforceable non-competes and the nice weather can be duplicated elsewhere in CA easiest, and this is happening. If your state has big corporate HQs forget about getting non-enforceable non-com

In this case, but really anyone using the library could be affected if found infringing on patents within the library.

Can't believe how great it is that a developer needs to check the license of open source libraries before using them.

Is it just me or wouldn't everyone just rather live in a world where privacy is respected by third parties just like a first party would. The do not call law has developed too many exceptions or needs strengthening methinks. If I'
