They refers to the people of the county in question - which is where those NIMBYs live and thus those who are not trying.

He has been threatening for a while now. If they haven’t made significant progress it is because they are not trying to.

Apartments take a few months to build. There are standard designs they build over an over again in different locations. I realize CA has earthquakes and maybe cannot take a design from Ohio (though I wouldn’t be surprised if they could), but there should be plenty of designs that meet codes. If they cannot build thousands of apartments in a year the problem isn’t the time it is they are doing something to make it not possible to build that fast.

Building should be by right - no need to ask the neighbors for permission or get a review (for a standard design that doesn’t do anything unusual), just half hour to get the permit and then a few routine inspections along the way.

firefox works great. You don’t need an app for everything.

Peertube exists. Use it.

now I will admit that peertube is lacking content, but when you make something put it there. When you want something search there first and check out youtube last. This rewards those who publish there with your eyeballs

I’m strictly reporting facts. How you feel about them is your decision. Though I suspect you didn’t read everything I wrote if you come to that conlusion.

That was last quarter. You don’t have to be very good at economics to look at world crop supplies, the age of the current farming equipment fleet, and other such data and conclude this next year will be tough for ag companies like Deere.

Of course the above is nothing new - ag is a cyclical business, you see the above ever 5-10 years. Previous to the current CEO the last layoffs of this type of position was the mid 1980s - several other CEOs saw the same signs the current one does and were able to manage it without layoffs.

Only if rail has to compete with ‘free’ public roads. Private rail had a long history before cars. They were not always loved, but they worked.

If you don’t they will comnit more fraud.

I’m not sure where the balance is, but it isn’t at not looking for fraud.

Unless you are saving to something big in the near future it doesn’t make sense not to. I have known many peohle to die young. I have known misers who died with millions in the bank. There is no point to money after death (at least not most religions, I cannot comment on yours) earn it, save a little for a rainy day and spend the rest.

they are too small in general. They can’t pay to attract someone who might be willing but isn’t passonate. so often what is left is busybodies who are passonate and you let them do whatever as it is better than doing it yourself - you have other things todo with your time.

Not in the suburbs near me - they are all new suburbs build in the last 3-10 years though. (3 years is important as sidewalks are built last so until the houses are all done the sidewalks don’t connect). Older suburbs though, rarely have sidewalks.

Yes they were. It wasn’t right then, and it isn’t right now.

Suburbs have great pedestrian paths - if your only goal is to exercise. Those paths don’t go anywhere, but living in the suburbs I many people using them for exercise.

This is very real. Take an ethics class sometime - indirect effects and what things look like are very important.

Drivers should not be tipped as they cannot do anything different. Either you get there or you don’t. If you get there slower they are incomitent. If you get there faster they broke the law and your tip indicates you enticed them to do so and so you are guilty.

Where I live they got it. While it isn’t law, the local fast food is all starting at $16/hour or more.

There is a difference: data. Other software doesn’t have data on what apartments are empty and what they are all renting for. They can only get data on the one landlord (even if they have more than one landlord in the system they cannot combine the data for the two). The know how many apartments one landlord has free, but not what others might have - only what they advertise. They don’t know what other landlords are really charging, only what they are advertising they charge (which might be different). This lack of data means software cannot find the best possible rate for the landlord - instead each landlord has to guess what is best.

Some do, the birth rate isn’t zero. However for whatever reason (time is often cited) many never do.

Despite the above study, if you are a male in an abusive relationship there often is no help even if you seek it out.
