Cities generate the tax base and subsidize the rest. This is shown in every case. It's not good or bad, just a reality of how density works.

It's not really debated that the carbon emissions of suburban life is an order of magnitude more than urban life. They just aren't comparable.
I do feel like the yearning for tiled windows or things like that are the result of trying to make OS X into Windows. Mac has Expose and virtual desktops - you don't need tiled windows.
Don't let NIMBYs think that that is the problem. We need more housing.
Also, building apartments has a huge environmental impact? Ok?.... So does rural sprawl? So does... everything? There is nothing inherently more damaging about those.
Beauty of a city? Cities are cities because of apartments. And you want.. fewer of them? Perhaps you would enjoy the suburbs more?
Corporate ownership of SFHs is so small to not matter. The house you live in shouldn't be an investment.
Don't use it.
The Swift API is
init?(from pasteBoard: NSPasteboard)
Which should autocomplete/hint while writing code. The documentation is in the type, not littered within the function name. Much more easier to read and write. The "pasteboard" is still very much in the function declaration.Compared to the obj-C version:
+ (NSURL *)URLFromPasteboard:(NSPasteboard *)pasteBoard;
Not sure why they insist on no spacing, or sane formatting, for Obj-c. I still can't read most Obj-c - it's horribly designed.
