I wonder what the threshold is for getting the "racistTM" designation will be? Yelp is already weaponized for businesses to use it against their competitors. I also wonder how much it costs to get the designation removed from your business.

A small group of landlords is behind nearly half of D.C.’s evictions, report saysquote:A small group of property owners who collectively hold 21 percent of the District’s rental market is responsible for nearly 50 percent of the city’s eviction filings, according to a report released Thursday by Georgetown University’s McCourt School of Public Policy. The whole article is worth a read. Landlords abusing the eviction process like crazy. loving one in ten and one in five renters getting evicted? What the gently caress?

One of the things i've come around to in the last few years is accepting the premise that debt kills empires, but not in the way chuds think where running a deficit too long makes your country implode. More in the sense of, if everyone is in debt or on the brink of financial ruin, literally all it'll take is a slight bump for everything to fall apart as literally everyone starts defaulting

Kreeblah posted:Bullshit. They're pure, unadulterated bullshit. The mistake most companies/dev orgs make is trying to use them as a performance indicator. They're not, they're a way for a group of experts to have a conversation about inputs to difficulty based on individual assessment. The performance indicator of an estimation system is whether the estimates get closer to reality over time, not number go up. Of course that implies you shouldn't use a formula like "we have two teams, each team generates 10 points per 2 weeks, they estimated this pile of poo poo at 90 points, ergo we'll be done in two months" and medium/long-range estimation is a completely different problem than estimating whether a team can make demonstrable progress on some piece of relatively well understood engineering work in a week or two. That might imply annual or multi-year planning is actually hard and not bing bong so easy to derive from daily or weekly task estimation. And that might imply that actually the people failing are the managers and strategic planners rather than the people at the coal face when the estimates turn out to be junk. Inevitably most companies' agile or scrum adoption is pure cargo cult bullshit papering over management failure, so it shouldn't be that surprising that it doesn't achieve anything except allowing business consultants to siphon off a few tens of thousands more dollars. But I think in a workers' cooperative the descendants of those systems could be effective for many groups.

I wouldn’t do that now tho I don’t want to be the parent that got a room full of toddlers quarantined for 2 weeks

Have I got that right? Was the first migratory bird an invasive species? Or is it like, if we see it happen then it's invasive, but if the outcompeting happened a long time ago then it's not considered invasive anymore, but merely successful?

Honestly if the migratory bird has no natural predators in the new area and completely outcompetes everything else, yeah it's gonna behave like what we'd call an invasive species. It's just without humans there'd be thousands of years between incidents like that happening and nature would have enough time to evolve up some predators before poo poo got too hosed, with humans it's happening constantly everywhere around the globe hundreds of times in the span of like, less than a century. So I guess the rate and causative factor are the important bits here.
