The government is also involved in lots of other things without exploding costs. I’d say the common thread is the combination of these factors: 1) the service is considered essential by consumers and 2) payments are deferred (by insurance or student loans). So consumers never say no due to rising prices.

The housing crisis is that there is less housing than people who want housing. Whether the homes are rented or owner-occupied has nothing to do with it.

We’re all talking about an announcement that Google Assistant is supporting over 30 languages.

Even if you exclude China, I believe Chinese is still a top-30 language.

No, the fiduciary duty is not that prescriptive. The courts aren’t going to second-guess whether a corporation is taking the profit-maximizing action at all times.

I don’t understand, how would AirBnB segmenting their marketing cause it to cost twice as much?

Imagine AirBnB and the low cost company both exist as you imagine. Now suppose AirBnB buys the low cost company and doesn’t change their marketing at all. Of course marketing ROI for each of the two segments doesn’t change. Compare this to the case where AirBnB operates in the two segments without buying low cost company. How are these cases different?

There are lots of devs who live in the East Bay (I used to live there myself), but most don’t. The more successful devs (who you are looking to poach) generally live on the other side, and they live there because they don’t want to drive across the bay twice a day.

It’s more of a Moneyball move - go for the underappreciated talent you can get cheap. There are companies doing that, but it’s not for everyone. If you get specific with the location, you realize Oakland and Pleasanton, Walnut Creek and Hayward are pretty far apart, so you don’t even get great access to the whole East Bay. You might as well move to Austin, Denver, or Detroit at that point and pay the same price for a better location.

Although you might see major companies open offices if there is a critical mass eg. maybe it would make sense for Google or Facebook to open a satellite office in Newark if enough employees are commuting across the Dumbarton.

Uber was going to make a big office in Oakland, but apparently canceled those plans.

The way you find out whether a change like this afffects revenue is by testing it, not speculating.

The launch of Yass not going as planned?

In the settings under Accessibility there is “Reduce Motion”, which takes away most of the animations.

>It doesn't make the situation worse, you're the only person suggesting that.

The comment I originally responded to seemed to think so.

Agreed, but this is true whether or not you’re using parent’s plan of not knowing the password.

The part I don’t get is how not knowing your password makes the situation worse. The password recovery mechanism exists whether or not you use it every time you log in.

The way I see it, not knowing your password removes some potential threats around managing that password incorrectly, at the cost of increasing the risk of losing access to your account if the recovery mechanism doesn’t work.
