Without these incentives housing supply would be even lower. The incentives are designed to encourage the creation of additional housing units. Without liquidity in the space new housing creation would stagnate.

Electric cars are still far too small for taller than average families to drive. Until there's a viable SUV alternative for 4 6ft+ adults to fit comfortably I don't think electric will take off in the US.

How can you build social trust when there is no commonality with your neighbor? Without some commonality of principles how can I trust that any social contract would be recognized or understood. How do people flourish in that environment?

This is an important check to developer greed. You have to be able to maintain quality of life with new development.

Some of my teams were fully remote about eight weeks in 2020, while others have been remote the entire time. I don't believe in full RTO, just hybrid.

1. The last few years have demonstrated that projects with teams that are primarily remote require a higher degree of project overhead staffing. I think this is most evident with very small teams. For example, it's fairly easy for a small internal tool team to coordinate their work without a project manager, design, or business analyst if they are in close phyiscal proximity. The struggle is when you distance that team from larger products/project. Even in the minimal case creating visibility for that small team into larger workstreams requires overhead itself. With the macro environment and with leaders being forced to tighten the belt, this is less and less possible. All communication has to be structured fully remotely. That structure requires management.

2. I've found about 20% of people have the ability to maintain a professional work environment at home. I'm constantly seeing in meetings where highly compensated employees are providing childcare during working hours. I'm all for flexibility, but it becomes a distraction.

3.Junior employees have little to no ability to develop skills from seniors. I have hired entire classes of employees in software engineering roles that started in a fully remote environment, realized they weren't learning anything, and then came to work in a hybrid setting.

What does the adoption of public transportation look like in non-homogenous vs homogenous populations?

I'm 6'10. What is built in my favor?

Airline seat ergo contours pitch people forward if they are over 6'3 in height. Reclining is the only way to sit up straight.

I have first hand experience interviewing developers via Zoom who are trying to mime the audio from a speakerphone on their end with someone answering questions.

People want to live near peers. Low income housing creates problem areas and people don't want to live near problem areas.

I don't think he actually made TikTok content?

I think companies have had to lower expectations for new hires over the last several years. These companies now see an opportunity with a slight market correction to freeze hiring to deal with the lower performers and possibly replace.

Why are bike lanes held up as the optimal solution in small municipalities with an aging population?

Why would you be happy with a 3% raise any year in tech?
