Context: I grew up in this area and have hunted there my whole life. The land is very much so not "empty" -- sure, there aren't condos, but it is owned by people and those people get economic gain from it predominantly through grazing cattle and somewhat agriculture. You could not just release Bison anywhere in this country without extreme uproar from the people who see them as in direct competition with their livelihood. And that's not even mentioning the other complex components of the prairie ecosystem that are being undermined (and in this case, restored).

That's why they are buying ranches that are currently utilizing the land for the purpose of cattle grazing and turning them back into wild prairie (and reintroducing bison).

My personal opinion is that it's incredibly cool that they're taking a very small piece of the great plains and letting it just be empty in the way that it used to be.

I don't have this issue with the Ooni. I wonder what is going on.

One thing to consider trying, heat it up at high heat and then when you put the pizza in, try turning the temperature down to a medium or low.

I am wondering if it is possible that the high temperature reading is directly from the flame and by turning it down during the cook, you'll have a more consistent temperature.

Fair enough. Thanks for the thoughtful response.

My aversion to bureaucracy makes me hate the idea of the government adding more red tape, especially on something as trivial as poorly written job posts. I feel like we learned nothing from GDPR cookie banners.

But nonetheless, I don’t think your point is invalid.

Agreed. they should. …But should that be the law?

Some of the responses here are a classic case of Fundamental Attribution Error - I see a lot of assumptions that imply that the employers must not be adding salaries because they are malicious or bad actors (which, of course there are some). But the overwhelming majority of these employers probably don't even know for themselves the salary that they're willing to pay, since compensation is highly variable based upon the individual's experience and complex market factors.

Should they all have better data, better perspectives, and better job specs? Sure thing. I agree. You'd hire much better people, that's for sure.

On the other hand, should we regulate them into compliance on this matter? Ironically, it seems like a great opportunity to add inefficiency and possibly even have a net negative impact on salaries.

I say, let them ship crappy job descriptions and let the market sort it out.

It is important to remember that we have a bias towards painting the past with "rosy retrospection". Life can just be hard and we tend to forget that about past events. It's quite possible you were just as worried about other stuff then.

That being said, yes, there certainly are some particularly hard things going on right now. However, I wouldn't use external factors as an excuse to not address the legitimate feeling of burnout that you are experiencing. [I think it is a dangerous trap people fall in to say "I feel bad because of X external factor" rather than taking control of what they can control to make themselves feel better].

Personally, I think arming yourself with tools to better cope with that life stuff in general is useful no matter what. CBT therapy, in particular, I find can be helpful.

What is the point that still stands, exactly? There are peaks and troughs with a clear downward trend. If your point is that in that trend, some years over 10 year periods look similar, then you would be correct. But in making that point, you risk drawing the wrong conclusion from the data.

I doubt the acquisition would have happened with the union intact. for Fastly in their diligence, that would likely be a dealbreaker. And I don't know the dynamics of the deal and where Glitch was with other options, but that could have very well spelled the end of the company.

One of my favorite things about HN is seeing people come out of the woodwork to raise their hand and say that they worked on a system and give their insight. Thanks for sharing this perspective.

self-pollinating would be a better description.

They are when they are the canned variant!

I see your perspective - however, the irony to me is that the alternative to urban density is to price out the people who are already there (decreasing their quality of life).

Increasing demand while keeping supply constant will (continue to) be bad news for lower and middle income people.
