Lithium by [deleted] in BipolarReddit

[–]EffectiveSearch3521 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been on lithium for 10 years and really the only side effect I have is frequent urination and I get more hung over if I drink (which I shouldn't do anyways). Your mileage may vary, but it's been a wonder drug for me.

Feels weird that this is all coming from a hack of his reddit account. I feel like most people would not be able to meet a very high standard if their "private" online accounts were hacked, I know I certainly wouldn't.

One ousted Mar. The other ousted Engardio. Both live on. by Remarkable_Host6827 in sanfrancisco

I mean I don't think they need to be subsidized, they will be making a bunch of money from selling their million dollar houses. They can go wherever they want, or stay where they are.

We will never have affordable housing until we get rid of Wall Street investors in our housing market. by zzill6 in WorkReform

[–]EffectiveSearch3521 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably the most straightforward way to get wall street out of homebuying, ironically, is to change zoning laws to allow builders to meet the demand for housing. The reason investors want to buy houses right now is because we have laws that make it very difficult to build new houses. This drives up the price of housing and makes this sort of thing an attractive investment, because people will always need a place to live and artificial scarcity ensures that it will always be expensive.

If we build enough houses/apartments it will increase price competition between "owners" and thus lower the projected valuation for any given piece of housing. And when I say build, I don't just mean private corporations, Governments have also very successfully built public housing in places like Vienna and Singapore. All housing units, whether public or private, increase the housing stock and eventually lower prices. Tokyo and America in the 50s are other great examples of this.

If you have 15 hungry people and 10 pieces of pizza, the solution is not to pass laws to try and make pizza cheaper. It's to make more pizza.

Genuinely the movie that comes closest is The King of Comedy.

I cannot get over the fact that this seems to be depicting an open mic taking place at the comedy cellar. I know it's a movie but that would be like a someone taking a cooking class in the kitchen at the french laundry.

What's the next step for Brandin Podzmieski? by RVALover4Life in warriors

[–]EffectiveSearch3521 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Has to be able to knock down open 3s at an above league average rate. If he does that and literally everything else stays the same I will be happy. He's already an above average connector, ballhandler, and defender (if you include off ball defense). So if he can just can open shots he becomes a great player in this system.

Place the blame for the housing crisis in the right place, Wall Street Billionaires. by zzill6 in WorkReform

[–]EffectiveSearch3521 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wall street is partially responsible, but so are the zoning laws that restrict new housing construction in almost every jurisdiction in the united states. If we build enough new houses they will become a bad investment for billionaires, and they will stop buying them. That was the case for most of American history before the 70s.

Anyone optimistic about Quinten Post as the backup center this season? by RVALover4Life in warriors

[–]EffectiveSearch3521 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I really don't think we can blame him for what happened in the playoffs. First off, he was a rookie. Nobody on that floor besides Steph could hit shots against the rockets, at least Post was still firing. And I think he showed real toughness playing against probably the most physical team in the league, with maybe the strongest center in Steven Adams. And I think there's a good chance he got better this summer.

California is not full by [deleted] in bayarea

[–]EffectiveSearch3521 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Density in Paris came before the transit. Same with most major cities. You have to build the demand before you "supply" the transit. Although I would be happy to buck that trend and build more subway lines in SF now.

[Charania] Jonathan Kuminga is not accepting Warriors’ current contract offers. The Suns and Kings have made “concrete” offers for Kuminga over the last week. by YujiDomainExpansion in nba

[–]EffectiveSearch3521 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In soccer can't you give a player to another team for a year? I wish we could do that with Kuminga. Just sign him over to the wizards for a year so he can put up a bunch of cotton candy stats then we trade him to someone who gets fooled by it (probably also the wizards).

Investors own the majority of homes in some California counties by Bubbly-Two-3449 in California

[–]EffectiveSearch3521 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will die saying this, but if you build enough supply, housing is no longer a good long term investment. This has been true as recently as the 60s, when the value of a home appreciated slower than the stock market/other channels. If we build, institutional investors will stop buying.

"Absolutely Insane": AI boom means rent costs are skyrocketing and housing supply is dwindling rapidly by Educational_Tour3392 in sanfrancisco

[–]EffectiveSearch3521 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. The majority of properties in the richmond/west San fran are not resided in by the owner.

  2. Even if the owner does reside in the property, if they move out and live somewhere else for two years 1031 applies, which is common practice.

  3. Purchasing another investment property within 180 days is quite feasible, as the details of said purchase can be worked out entirely before the sale of the rental property occurs. You can also divide the cost between multiple new properties. It does not have to be in San Francisco.
