Benim yazdığım kod pek maintain edilmiyor. Her projeye ayrı, bir seferlik kullanım için yazılıyor.

Valla artık kod değil comment yazıyorum çoğunlukla. Bir iki satır ekleyip çıkartıyorum aralara. Boilerplate kod için harika. Debugging için de öyle. 40 satır hata mesajı okumuyorum, Copilot’a soruyorum hemen. Çok işe yarıyor. Ama daha low-level kod yazanlar için o kadar kullanışlı olmayabilir.

It's not Musk or Bezos who's keeping us from building new housing, building mental health facilities or prosecuting the bippers + drug dealers. It is our elected officials who are responsible, and we have only ourselves to blame for electing them.

Pretty much everything we don't like about SF now -be it the cost of living, homelessness+mental health+fentanyl crisis or property crime- can be traced back to decades of progressive politics.

We should tax the ultra-rich for sure. But if we don't diagnose the problem correctly, we can never solve it. Our problem is not lack of money. SF spends $1.2B on homelessness annually. What do we have to show for it?

SF mayors don't have much power. It's the BoS who calls the shots. Past BoSs are responsible for many things that we complain about the city today.

NIMBYs are not the rich. They're us, the people of SF, who voted for "progressive" politicians such as Aaron Peskin, Dean Preston, etc. SF politics has been dominated by progressives for decades. Let's not blame it on the rich.

It's the NIMBYism that creates inequality. Artists had to move away because housing is absurdly expensive. It's expensive because we don't build enough. The Tech Boom made it worse, but it by itself is not the root of the problem.

Ring Mountain is lovely. It's a great place to hike in any season. Would be a good to bring along a geologist. 8/end
