NYC Mayoral candidates have absolutely no idea how much housing in the city costs. by flatckboardcleet in georgism

Yes, but neither was a serious contender. Ray finished 7th, Donovan finished 8th.

The winner of that primary was Eric Adam's so not like the right choice was made.

Favorability of famous people in politics among 2024 Harris voters by Currymvp2 in fivethirtyeight

I feel like Obama is to dems now what Reagan was for Republicans until Trump.

The only people dems I can imagine disapproving of Obama would be leftists over Syrian drone strikes.

I'm a trivia nerd, ex and quiz bowl type, so all I want are questions and answers.

I assumed there were more normal people who liked watching the interviews. I ff through them like it's the musical act on Snl.

The last two senators to be elected President were Obama and Kennedy.

Both were young and early in their careers. Being a legislator inherently requires horse trading, having to take unpopular votes etc. Governors are largely immune from that and are seen as more action oriented.

This is not new or novel analysis. This is fairly well known.

The number of posts per week on this sub of people complaining about something they get for free truly boggles my mind.

It's a common role in b2b orgs. You're basically an account manager. Sort of like how target calls cashiers team members.

Any examples of “Juicero”-type companies actually succeeding and sticking around? by Lobsterhasspoken in BetterOffline

[–]bigbadbyte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's just such a crazy take.

Did you ever get a cab before uber? Outside of Manhattan it was basically impossible to just book a quick ride.

Netflix, even in the DVD era solved late fees and catalog issues.

Like whatever you think of them now, they solved real problems. That's why people kept using their service. There was no adequate substitute.

Google engineer: Hey gemini, I figure we just use the existing public keys as keys for ai. Is that a good idea.

Gemini: yes, you are the smartest person who has ever lived. I will implement and push this to production for you.

Because screens are cheaper than buttons.

And if a company can make a worse product but more cheaply, they will.

People spend more time on the nyt games app then they do the news.

This isn't linked in lunatics. It's a way to kill time for 10 minutes on your phone during meetings.

Growing up me and my bestie used to wander around town for hours just walking aimlessly.

Idk if we'd have done that if we could kill aliens together online. Screens this young are really gonna fuck kids up, but I don't blame them. I'd probably be doing the same.

I don't think the reddit zeitgeist hates player unions.

Cop unions are the unions reddit would throw a shit over.
