it's just corporations trying to make you engender some humanity towards them while they gently caress you in the rear end in a usually constitutionally legal manner

for errors it is fine, they have already failed to do the thing that would have let you respect them, whimsy will make nothing worse. anything with even a conversational tone inside normal functionality is horrible though. the email with the subject line "we miss you" from a service you have stopped using is one of the most despicable

you ask this about a corporation that - makes its new hires wear a propeller beanie - is building a college dorm for its employees - doles out human contact ("massage credits") to people who work hard - has a literal ball pit with a slide in its lobby

i support the building of housing in theory, but lomarf if you think it's not gonna be (1) a family-unfriendly worker hole for unmarried 20-30somethings to keep living like they did at stanford and (2) a company-town-esque ploy to keep people at their jobs longer and return some of their salary to the employer like, gently caress, let google get into the real estate business. why not. let them build giant apartment blocks and actually drive down the cost of housing for everyone, instead of further stratifying and separating the Googlers from the Rest Of Us. also this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2QCySNv7cxA "someone else whose job it is to figure out how to set up rooms determined that this table would look good here"

Twenty percent of units were to be considered “affordable.” i think having 4k units for all the boring pasty midwestern transplant fucks who never leave work or their studio is fine. leaving another 3000 for married people to have kids in 2-3 br apts and another 3000 for couples for 1br is p good also they're trying to have business and transit development htere which is good

100 percent of units should be considered "affordable", given the metrics i'm sure they're using to determine that, but i agree that 10,000 units would be a great step forwards for the area. here's to hoping.

and really the most useful is is reducing demand on housing in sf, etc so good units arent wasted on boring googlers that don't even really care about just having a studio but ya the city is going to throw a shitfit and probaly force htem to cut it down to <1500 units unfortunately. probably asking higher so they know they'll get pushed back to go less and everyone go can home happy as "win" Xaris fucked around with this message at 20:05 on Jul 1, 2017 |

One thing that pisses me off more than the jokey tone is how a lot of programs don't even display error codes or feedback anymore, you just get a spinning circle forever and you're like 'uhh so what's the problem here, its been loading for half an hour'

there are tons of apartments going up in Sunnyvale, San Jose, and Santa Clara. single family home prices in MV are not going anywhere because people with families don't want to live in lovely apartments full of itinerant single tech nerds.
