    oakland Oakland Target Closing Oakland Store, 3 Bay Area Stores Citing Rampant Thefts

  • HiddenTower HiddenTower 12 months ago 100%

    I don’t see a strong connection between the store closing and the store being responsible for people not being in poverty/crime. The city/state/fed gets taxes from the store and is expected to put that to use for us. Instead Oakland has a terrible corrupt police department and a city gov that can’t meet deadlines to file for funding.

    I don’t feel bad for Target, I feel bad for Oakland. The people deserve better.

    officers did report finding an ambulance being vandalized amid sideshow activity.

    Absolutely unacceptable behavior. Who need to be told that an ambulance plays a critical role? That it shouldn’t be messed with? It’s one thing to call for more police, but this is such a basic thing. Oakland needs to get it’s act together.

    I like DHH, I'm glad the less-used tools have an advocate in him. There is a trend to winner-takes-all in software, it's great when other systems/approaches are championed. I think DHH did a good job of explaining why moving out of the cloud worked for his situation and not others. I think he did a worse job explaining why moving to JS and away from TS is good for him. But he was upfront that it's mostly a personal/subjective choice. He could have handled the transition better, but I think the destination they got to was fine.

    I'm not much of an 8-bit gamer but it's cool to hear about these early consoles. The general narrative is that the Famicom ruled in Japan, but it had some competition and it's interesting to see what other companies released.

    There's so many providers, and they don't always make it clear when they change hardware. Amazon AWS feels pretty open about it, they are good. I doubt the resource you are looking for will ever exist. You won't be able to make a purchase decision with all the info you want.

    It's pretty cool, and pretty powerful what you can do with it. Should other languages adopt this approach? I think named types is better for building abstractions, but I haven't come up with a good explanation yet.

    There are a lot of ways to play the old video games. For me, my favorite way is with one of the little 3rd party retro game devices. I had a RGB10 Max 2 and it was great, but I dropped it and it broke. Im using an RG35XX and it's working great for PS1 and earlier. I'd love to get something more powerful for PS2 games but maybe in the future. Chat in here about if you have a little handheld or your particular way of playing these great old games!
