The only reason rent would decrease in response to economic conditions would be if they started building tons and tons of houses and supply began to outpace demand. OR, your country were experiencing deflation, which is bad

You're wrong, building more housing is THE solution. The vast majority of homes are owned by people who live in them, not landlords. Building more housing is literally the ONLY solution.

The vast majority of software run on Windows these days runs in a web browser. The legacy shit in windows doesn't impact most software engineers

I am absolutely not trying to antagonize you. I'm sorry that you interpreted it that way

When did I say that? Point out one single line that even remotely implies this. Flagrant strawman. What else would you call it?

Perhaps, I dunno, a misunderstanding?? Why do you assume everyone is out to get you? Why do you interpret everything as hostility?

How do you intend to pay for a search engine without signing in to it and having it track your search history?

Read my comment again, because I neither accused you of anything nor reduced your argument. I'm not the original poster you replied to

Maybe. They use several other indexes as their backend so they have to pay microsoft for every search

So you won't pay for a subscription to use a search engine. Do you prefer the model that other search engines use where they take the content of your searches and use it to advertise to you?

It's because you have to pay for the search engine. They dont serve ads

It's called the wnba

I argue that we should replace property taxes with income taxes because property taxes lead to disparities in outcomes between different jurisdictions. Then an old man can be secure in his own property without depriving the public of funds.

And I disagree with your premise that property taxes pay for a decent education. We don't have decent education in the United States and I truly believe that no amount of money will fix that

Ladybird seems almost singularly focused on macOS development. They say that they intend to incrementally move from C++ to Swift

How so? I know literally nothing about ladybird

Gross

Yes (Chad face)

I think it's the moral issue of having to cash out your own property to afford to live in something you built and already own

Lol. Lmao, even

No there's lots of different kinds of people. Some people work a full 9-5 chained to their desks, and others get their work done early so they can go and live their lives to the fullest. The point of WFH is flexibility: I don't need permission to go walk my dog or fold laundry. As long as I get my assigned work done, who cares WHEN or HOW or WHERE I do it

Engineer Syndrome. You get mildly good enough at writing Javascript to sell a product and then assume that means you can fix all of society's problems
