Anything in the constitution is not canonical forever.
Prosperity, low-interest rates, wider mortgage product offerings, and easy to access credit cause pricing bubbles.
Now, forces that make a housing bubble pop include a downturn in the economy, a rise in interest rates, as well as a drop in demand.
We've had all that and credit is getting more expensive.
Theres only so many people who can live somewhere or buy to rent scheme spaces, developers building as much and fast they can and you can't renew all the older buildings.
In the end, follow the money, all the stake holders and you'll find it is always universal greed at the root.
I am not so sure that building houses for non business purposes should be handled so liberally.
And what do you mean no end in sight? Child alimentation stops at certain places after some age threshold is reached, certainly there must be a limit.
If your salary is 80gross or net and you pay half , do the math what you'd get in another country and leave if it makes sense.
If you make much more than that, I would suck it up.
Good luck with that.
Similar shenanigans with other freemium products, where the bare minimum is free, but makes you dependent on shopping for the costly features.
It's extremely hard. To compare pricing, especially with concurrent users etc. I have to say, adobe is one of the most transparent in that regard, it's very clear what you will get.
Only happens on HN, I faintly remember it might have happened on Reddit once, but here, it's consistent and reproducible.
They say natural resistance is better or equal than from the vaccine, everyone apart from anti vaxxers like Djokovic has had a shot or two or three, there's no herd immunity or herd protection
Can someone explain the math to me?
Also people said the regular flu does not exist anymore, give or take, because everyone is wearing masks. Nothing could be further from the truth, full family had flu twice now, me three times(never had that before in my.life, once a year max was normal) and I see the regular flu wave still existing. I haven't had covid that I know of, did tests and am vaccinated.
The pigs realize more than you'd think, their moms know when you're about to castrate the babies and they remember it, too.
When the slaughterhouse van comes along, they can feel something is wrong, this is, before the van is even visible. They might remember other pigs not coming back from the ride or something, but to kill another animal to save the human animal is not very nice.

The level of incompetency and ironical jokes is overwhelming.
I work in finance and this is often a total no go in many industries , even with consent of the card holder.
But going strict on this will cause friction I suppose, just like CVV codes aren't mandatory on transactions, so some companies leave them out of the payment process. It only helps a bit during a charge back defense to have CVV and 2fa enabled.
I have read about other dodgy things that Upwork has done before, nasty bunch.
Predictably, this outcry will make them "rethink" their position on this one case and they will "apologize" and most likely not update the KYC checks and carry on as usual.
For the medium url I get
First Contentful Paint 3.1 s Time to Interactive 18.5 s Speed Index 9.7 s Total Blocking Time 6,160 ms
Horrible.
Reduce unused JavaScript and defer loading scripts until they are required to decrease bytes consumed by network activity.
Even main.js is guilty.
1.9s there.
Serve images in next-gen formats 1.8 s
And very interesting, why does the following happen.
Avoid multiple page redirects 1.56 s
Reduce the impact of third-party code Third-party code blocked the main thread for 5,660 ms Minimize main-thread work 15.7 s Reduce JavaScript execution time 12.3 s
Wow
I think it's ok as a first step to route customer care cases, like "payments issue","delete account" etc, but nothing more granular than that.
That and link rot, when procedures have been updated, but the faq haven't. Infuriating.
I never liked the "will find another" trope.
The Chinese , after the opium wars, simply executed dealers and users.
Very radical, but you bet dealers wouldn't just find the next user and vice versa
The company literally tells them the hardware is there, it's "only" missing the software.
Like, what's a robot worth without the undeveloped software.
People from the fields have laughed about her and Theranos for a long time.
It's not open source as far I know and there's only the free trial way to try it.
The next thing I have realized, if I am looking for something about a topic or a person and there are current events heavily in the media on the person or the issue, it's almost impossible to get something useful or even related.
Stack overflow results are sometimes replaced by less useful GitHub links.
Then , job search results are pretty bad too , same for shopping items.
It seems like media outlets and the big traffic domains get preferential treatment.
And this is just for English, God knows how bad this will be in other languages.
How would they go on about infecting a PC?
Crazy that the app stores play along.
Some of the ads are generated on the run based on that tracking data and it involves many, many http round-trips before it's injected via ajax. Further, comment sections have some sort of fb tracking integration, triggering even more round trips.
And all that is separately loaded on a non optimized website layer with many externa JavaScript frameworks and dependencies.As well as injected video components, huge images which most likely aren't optimized. Lazy loading should be native now, no jQuery function needed, no intersection observer either, and it does work ok, but it's often not properly implemented or not at all.
As for react, the stripped shadow Dom might be faster then the native Dom, but you still need the Dom and react is still a heavy load. I remember the days when people said don't needlessly load jQuery. Today, people use react when there's no real need to do so.

But can you show me the way how you'd go on about this? Really curious.
And how did this breached exactly happen?
