and I'm not your man
"Soviets" was a union of 15 republics, not one big russia.
To your original comment: russia absolutely didn't behave nice on that land at any time in history regardless of who they were at war with.
Another point to consider: much of the Rus (Ruth) that russia claims to be descendent of is modern Ukraine and Belarus lands, and historically they were figthing most of the time with moscow armies.
and a bit of trivia - person who plays him is Marc Anthony (musician, ex-husband of Jennifer Lopez)
This is exactly the thing that people should !not expect! from it in the very beginning. It's an owner's responsibility to _monitor surroundings_ and make car move when it's safe to do so. Car will navigate, but it's not a full self driving obeying all the rules of city traffic.
For many in US just the idea of sharing a space with strangers is revolting. Same applies to dense living.
And that brings another question: how would you have effective public transit system in suburban sprawl?
How does it work out when your mom is renting herself and when you went to university she started renting a smaller place without extra room, to save some money?
rent vs own comparison may look a little different when you actually need a place to live
1) It was self-reported
2) "Lived in SF" in report meant they were SF residents and this is requires just any bill with city address within 30 days (consider cases like: moved to SF with hopes of better opportunities, out on the streets in couple of months - but sf resident for a short term prior).
Sarcasm aside - only that much can be done by the police if there is no point in doing it. Let's not forget about DA office with revolving door, making sure anyone apprehended will be released and at the same place tomorrow without any consequences to their actions.
There are ads on Youtube that cannot be skipped, and they can be much longer than 5-6 seconds.
Basically this is investment, with money often coming from the whole family. No one really lives there. In majority of cases even finishing touches on properties would be unwelcome as it will lower resale value. They are being built everywhere (helps with GDP too). And plenty of developers are struggling with sales of new stock.
