But in the real world ease of use is _everything_ for the vast majority of people.

How much of this is just the hacker news demographic skewing perceptions? For a lot of people here, it makes far more sense to hire someone to do home maintenance while you continu…

How much of that is just a cost thing? Is hiring people to do home maintenance inexpensive and easily available where you are? That's usually not the case in American cities.

That just illustrates how important California is to the world economy.

I'm shocked that you think having a lawyer involves reputation costs.

I have one of those too out in the garage. It runs a hobby CNC router, so it's basically bathed in very fine sawdust often. I'm astonished every time it actually boots up.

Milkmen 100% exist in the US also. Several houses close by have delivery coolers for https://www.smithbrothersfarms.com/ and their trucks appear regularly.

I kind of had to laugh about this. The vast majority of European written media over, say, the last two thousand years, is Christian faith based.

Can't talk about the kids part, but Uber Pool was definitely a popular thing pre pandemic. People were happy to get in cars with strangers.

It's way off topic. The Q-and-A here is are about getting actual legal expertise applied to questions, not opinions about how US immigration law is flawed. You're not wrong to say …

Or potentially a lot less. The idea that real estate always goes up doesn't match reality.

I'm curious what country you live in. Certainly here in the United States we never tried anything like UBI. The few things we did do continue to be successful, although the Republi…

Or relatively expensive drones with actual electronic warfare equipment. Number of actual extraterrestrials involved: close to zero .

Want to drive your car? The car vendor is well within their rights to eliminate your ability to drive in certain areas. That's just market segmentation.
