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.

This is an obscure suggestion that is probably wrong. But you mentioned that it belongs to a family member which made me wonder -- Is it possible that your "primary" calendar is classified as a "Family" calendar and you also happen to have a YouTube TV account where they share access? YouTube TV automatically invites all members of your "household" to your Google Calendar Family calendar.

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.

well, that I completely agree with. :)

SF has a population density of 18,679 per square mile. NYC has 27,000. There is plenty of room, you'd just have to scale everything along with it.

Also, for what it's worth, > population density = < net pollution. mass transit etc. are great optimizations of resources. these humans already exist - it's just a matter of where they exist.

I love it for the ad-free videos. I honestly didn't even know that original content was a part of the offering. But I'd happily keep paying for this one feature.

Search is something that (with the advent of Teams) we've been bolstering our investment in. We've updated to the most recent version of elastic (which unblocks us on a lot of improvements) and we have upgraded how we are indexing questions/answers for Teams. and most importantly, we will just be continuing to improve it - since now it's more critical than ever to be successful there. To your point though, it's the first time we've invested in search in...well, I don't know how long.

can confirm: that's definitely one of the features of this product.

absolutely :)

not yet. but supporting SSO options is on our near-term roadmap. however enterprise edition does support AD/SAML out of the box. stackoverflow.com/enterprise

Sorry for the confusion. Your assumption is correct. $10 month total for the first 10 users (so, regardless of whether you have 3 users or 9 users, it's still $10/month). And then $5 per new user after that.

yeah, that's definitely a huge product challenge for us!

some things do work differently than stackoverflow.com to help with that - we built integrations to help surface questions to the right people in your team quickly (rather than the shotgun approach on the public site). and we've also built mechanisms to help guide you towards building a successful community (since it starts as a blank slate).

This is all great info. One additional note. The best way to become a PM is to just start doing the job.

Even if you're on a team with a PM already, offer to write a few of the specs. Or if there's no room to do that, then create a side project where you go through the product development process and show your work. Create sort of a portfolio that demonstrates your abilities.

As someone who struggles to get my Grandmother to doctors appointments and, as a result, she has high cancelation rates - I think this has the opportunity to be an incredibly valuable two-sided market.

- Doctors are incentivized to have fewer cancelations and help get their patients to and from appointments.

- People get to the doctor more often and have better care.

Uber is easy to hate on, but this seems like a societal net-positive. Good for them.

I see an opportunity for a "Shopify for restaurants". Essentially an end to end SaaS solution that let's you do your own order management and lead-gen (and plugs into your own POS). though that latter part (lead gen) would still be a huge challenge for restaurants. Seamless charges those fees because they have the audience and can.

PM on Channels here.

I see what you're saying. The honest answer is that we just really need to focus on making sure the product works well before anything else.

I really can't speak with confidence about pricing, because we still need to do discovery on what will work best. But what I do know is that it'll likely continue to be free for many people with some premium features that people can pay for if they want.

And if not, the data you create is yours and you can export it and bail!

PM on Stack Overflow Channels here. You make a valid point. :) And I can assure you, the success of Channels is predicated on a solid update to the way we do search (as well as better integration with tools you might already be using, like Slack).

We tried it a while ago, but we re-launched it with a much more updated solution about a year and a half ago. And it now has a dedicated ongoing team.
