Why? My understanding of the argument against seed oils is that they have a high omega 6 to omega 3 ratio, which does not align with historical intake and leads to inflammation. While I'm not a nutritionist, this seems like a perfectly reasonable argument

The Synology Photos UI feels much more polished and it includes a mobile app. Synology Photos only has community mobile apps, which weren't well maintained. And last I checked Photoprism did not have multi-user support. Synology Photos feels much more like something I could get my partner and kids to adopt.

The downside is that Synology Photo's database schema and API are not officially documented, but you can find people who have documented them and since it's on a machine you own you have unlimited access to them, so it's still a big step up from Google Photos and Apple Photos which are chock full of restrictions - e.g. Apple Photos doesn't even have a web API.

I would say if you want to know what % of the company you'd own, you should just ask that. The cap table generally has details like how much every other employee owns and a company is unlikely to tell you how much everyone who works there is compensated.

More like fighting fire with gasoline. And emptying the state coffers right before a recession when California tax revenues will be amongst the hardest hit of any state is an additional stupidity. This should all go into the rainy day fund

I don't think this really makes sense. If the city were really just for rich people who don't care about others, then why don't they kick out all the homeless? And why would they pass a high tax on businesses? And how can you say the wealthy don't care about jobs leaving or tech decline when most of the money here is from tech and the rich people work in tech?

I could just as easily say the poorest run city policies:

Housing - don't want gentrification and are rent-controlled anyway

Thefts - don't care about rich store owners or home owners and don't want to be hassled by the police

Schools - if they can't do advanced math then get rid of it so that no one is ahead of them

Tech - they don't work in tech and don't want to compete against rich techies for housing

I think the truth is that it's run by the entrenched, which is a mix of the rich and poor: people who already own property (because their families have been here a long time or because they're rich) and people who have rent-controlled apartments

I agree. And Tesla isn't alone in this. Waymo was doing the same thing in the early days (no idea if they still are)

At this point we basically have to assume it's everywhere. If it's not already, it will be shortly

Why is it insane? The article said he fabricated and withheld evidence and won the case via bribery and fraud. I'm not familiar with this case, but that seems to be the findings of the court

Oil polluters should be held responsible for their acts. At the same time, bribery, fraud, withholding and fabricating evidence must also not be allowed to stand

Thanks for mentioning interest rates as well. Though I don't know that it counters the original point. Things can have multiple causes. Both limited supply and low interest rates can be major contributing factors.
