Another poorly crafted SPA app. Click on a post then go back and it jumps to the top on its own. Sometimes there is just a blank screen. Please make it a simple MVC app without JavaScript BS.
That’s one of the best software engineering advices I’ve ever heard. You should write a book. Seriously.
All resources are constrained. Food production requires land which is constrained. No one dies from hunger this days. People receiving UBI will just start buying organic food which is going to increase its price. Rent prices will soar as well because of constrained supply. So do salaries. So do other goods. And boom - there goes inflation.
What about other cryptocurrencies?
It only works for a relatively small group of people. Scaling it up to 100% of the population would result in inflation.
Real state prices will explode. That’s what happened after 2009 due to QE.
You can research theoretical physics your whole life without worrying about putting a food on the table.
The more you build the more people will come. When can you consider a city to be full? When there is no land to build? Or maybe when it's impossible to provide an infrastructure to support its population? Are you ok with raising a family in a 400 sq. feet condo like people do in Asia? Because if you increase density that's going to be a new standard for American cities.
The problem is the high concentration of IT businesses in a small region of space. And the solution is to spread it to other cities across US. It's already happening as companies struggle to find workers in SF bay area opening offices in other west coast cities.
When you build more appartments, more people come to the city. It’s a positive feedback loop. The result is a city with terrible quality of life. The city no one wants to live in. Only then it will stop growing.
That’s how it will look like https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=AoPpFfXwx_o
They have deed restrictions.
Cities are full. US population has doubled since 1960. If we get rid of zoning we will end up with overpopulated cities like Hong-Kong, Jakarta, Moscow, Tokyo.
