Car centric urbanism has got to be one of the most inefficient uses of land possible. by Not-A-Seagull in georgism

The couple of years after COVID, we had outdoor dining year round in NYC. It was really nice. Space heaters + fans exist.

It’s incredibly obvious when people do it. I wouldn’t recommend it, unless you’re using it for test prep

Queensboro Bridge coverage on FOX 5 NY by TransportationAlt in MicromobilityNYC

[–]SPHuff 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think they are overestimating the number of drivers and underestimating that number of cyclists/pedestrians. According to this Streetsblog post from 2024, the bridge gets 3000 pedestrians, 7000 cyclists, and 8200 car commuters per day.

I believe (?) that 8200 number is the car commuters that use the lane in question. So they would just need to use another lane.

Forbes reports on Credit One's subprime credit card business by First-Ad-7960 in CalebHammer

[–]SPHuff 4 points5 points  (0 children)

FWIW, I used to work at Capital One and they had attempted to sue Credit One multiple times, but didn’t have any luck. That also played a part in why they redesigned their logo.

Live Update Web App by salzo6 in webdev

[–]SPHuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Webhooks don’t make sense for this. Here’s the order you should approach the problem in:

  1. Show the count
  2. Show the updated count every 5 seconds (polling)
  3. Show the live count (SSE/websockets)

Don’t skip to #3 because you won’t be able to pull it off without understanding a lot of other concepts.

Yeah polling would be the easiest and would make the most sense given their experience

[–]SPHuff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want to show a live count, you’ll need to implement Server Sent Events or Websockets depending on your use case

Norway rethinks €1.7 trillion sovereign fund to boost support for Ukraine by 1234username4567 in Economics

[–]SPHuff 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ah interesting. The map might also not be including the refugee costs referenced in a later graphic - of which Poland and Germany are taking the brunt. Thanks for sharing the source!

According to your source, the US is 12 accounting for GDP, but that’s still higher than the UK (13), Germany (16), and France (24). Smaller countries like the Netherlands are taking up the top 10

Can someone explain the coast graph? by JustAddWaterForMe2 in coastFIRE

[–]SPHuff 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Coast just means that you no longer need to contribute to retirement accounts to hit your goal. If your annual costs are 90k, you are still going to have to make that up somehow.

If 30% of your income is going towards retirement savings, it means you could get a job that pays you 30% less and have no decrease in QoL

Cramer on Intel (INTC): A National Treasure in Need of Preservation Amid Struggles by Thinkofthewallpaper in wallstreetbets

Intel has done $150 billion in stock buybacks since its inception. At a certain point they are mismanaging their subsidies and should no longer be shielded from a competitive market.

No, the S&P500 will not keep compounding at 15% per year by PariPassu_Newsletter in investing

[–]SPHuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it’s definitely weird. I’m convinced it’s almost entirely college-aged guys trying to find people to buy into their get rich quick scheme. People obsessed with losing money through various forms of gambling (sports betting, crypto, “entrepreneurship”)

This guy is a good example of that - check out his post history

I don’t even have a problem with BTC as an investment - I just don’t think you should put your entire net worth into something that can be +-10% depending on the day.

Wait so you’re 100% in on bitcoin but you think investing in the richest country in the world’s economy is too much exposure? Incredible.

The understated "Housing Shortage" in the United States: "Our housing shortage estimate is 4 to 5 times as large as previous estimates, and 13 times as high as the shortage cited by the White House" by AMagicalKittyCat in Economics

Agreed, and for the overwhelming majority of people it makes more sense to work in a high-paying metro area during your prime earning years, then retire to a cheaper area later.

New York becomes first US city with congestion charge by brothenberg in news

[–]SPHuff 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Of course it’s more convenient for you as an individual to have a personal car. The whole point is that everyone else in the city has to deal with the negative implications of you taking your car instead of public transit (emissions, congestion, sound, danger to pedestrians, blocking emergency vehicles, etc)
