My guess is that the suggested search is a common or trending search term. Then in most languages they apply a naughty-word list filter, but in other languages perhaps their filter is non-existent or in-exhaustive.
For me it's just the marketing and sales. I hate it so much. But to succeed it's essential. And I'm so lost and I don't know what to do. I feel helpless
If there was enough supply there wouldn't be a problem. No one hoards cars, boats, airplanes or anything else because they think that they can corner the market and raise prices. Housing is only special because not enough is built. It's only possible to "hoard" because every 1 off the market is less for everyone else. A fixed pie. Like bitcoin. If the bitcoin supply was infinite no one would think about collecting them.
As an aside, bans are also very exploitable. Can't buy cause you're foreign? Put it in your cousin's name. Buy or start a tiny company that will technically own it. Get some kind of visa, maybe one that you can get because you have lots of $. etc.
A % tax on the cost of the property would be pretty simple. Can't buy without paying the tax up front. It's usually the more complicated taxes that have exceptions to rules that are exploitable. It's hard to find exploits in simple rules.
Hypothetical example: Tax it 100,000,000%. Turn a $1 house into a $1,000,000 house. Do you think they'd still want it? That's the power of taxation to change behaviour. (of course a real tax can be whatever is needed to "get the job done", it doesn't need to be ridiculous).
If you don't want empty houses, tax empty houses (though as a distracting aside, the idea that empty houses is a big problem has also been fairly thoroughly debunked, but that's another discussion that it's important rn)
tl;dr - There is a specific reason that we like to use social networks, and it's the receiving of status or accumulate capital. From this theory, a network like Slow Social cannot succeed because there isn't enough social capital that can be consumed.
That tracks pretty closely with what I experienced when I last visited. I would call SF a failed city in that it cannot perform its basic functions to house or care for its people.
I have done something like this myself. I did the simpler thing of simply buying a single 150W high lumen high lux LED bulb. It's very bright. It's maybe an 70% solution.
Related is people being booted from their other online accounts without any recourse. Banned from Google when it’s their mistake? Tough luck. What about Apple and you’re an iPhone user? Who could live without Amazon’s convenience?
Another cost is what i call “maintenance cost”. The thinking about, cleaning, repairing, recharging, moving, etc. Even a pencil. I must store it, remember where it is, take it out, clean under it, sharpen it, move it out of the way to get another thing, and finally discard it. These costs compound with each new acquisition.
GDPR has gone too far. Privacy yes. Encryption yes. Data portability yes. Permissionless selling of personal data no. But the rules are nonsensical at this point.
I watched the second video and was a bit disappointed. It lost him twice in 6 minutes even though he didn’t leave its frame. Maybe version 3 will crack it
Yes! Why is everyone so negative about copilot? I think it's a great name for the product. It helps you write, it doesn't write for you. You're still in charge and it can't write the "smart code".
