Police ROE should be never fire unless fired upon but they don't want to do that. They see a shadow that looks at them the wrong way and it gets shot at

At the end of the full video, which also shows another angle, you can see the gun is further down the way behind the fence. He threw the gun away and put his hands up as instructed. 

 

The story makes me feel bad all around. A 13-year-old not at home, with a gun, who gets killed after following orders. Everything makes me feel bad. =(

Don't rule out that the video may have been edited by police to show a "gun". Chicago PD may have done so in the recent past!

Seems like this is the crux of the problem right here. Cops aren't deviating from their training, it's just that the training they get is not actually based around the preservation of human life.

Not to bring it here but I have it on good authority that cops are fine they just need more training

But also, if you can guarantee a SFH like mine that is within walking distance of the CBD, that also increases the value in an artificial way. Like imagine owning the one single family home that borders central park

Oh yeah, absolutely. The value of the regional housing market overall is a factor, but for a particular property you have to look at similarly positioned and types of properties with similar features. If there's truly nothing like it plus high demand for living near, say, central park, then yeah the value of the improvements to that lot can be very high (but so would the value of the land itself being next to a major landmark). Housing valuation is very complex and involves a lot of guesswork.

That's interesting. While there aren't any density restrictions in my neighborhood (there's a ~12 story condo building across the street), the house I live in is historically protected, so it makes sense why the value shot up even though you can effectively never build anything on the lot ever again.

 

I suppose increasing density helps everyone. On lots that can be developed into higher density buildings, the land value increases because of it. On lots that can't, the house value increases for the same reason?

Well the land value is basically static on a per square foot basis all else being equal. The improvements are those that are more subject to supply and demand and can fluctuate due to regional trends and preferences and other things. For a given property you can't make the land closer to the cbd, but you can put another housing unit there if allowed in other words. And when you reach the legal supply limit on housing units for a given area, all else being equal, demand will dictate that price on the improvements increase in the market.

Question: is there even any evidence that letting in higher density housing lowers land value at all? You would think it would only raise land value as more land is able to me utilized per square foot. I feel like I keep hearing property values touted as a nimby thing.

 

The house I live in is sort of a single family home surrounded by higher density buildings. It was last sold for just under $800k in 2009 or so and was last valued at something like $2 million.

Land value is generally determined by proximity to the central business district. Per the city, the value of the land that my home is built is worth about $96k, 3.2miles from CBD. There's another property I found in a much higher density neighborhood approximately 3.2 miles from the CBD and the city has that value of land at $95k. Property value of the other place is much higher than mine because it is limited by zoning as to how dense the neighborhood can get

I'm sure he had an assistant read him the Wikipedia plot summary of The Turner Diaries at some point.

The crazy thing about the turner diaries is that they're basically standard issue conservative dogma anymore

Jason just become a musk reply guy and push for him to pump doge

I know, but it still unfairly targets places with high COL. Median property taxes in NJ are over 9k!

If only something could be done about the high cost of living (aka the high cost of housing)

@Chris-is right to feel a personal sense of return to normal. The numbers are so good they almost feel fake. Just incredible stuff.

and the owner is the wealthy scion of a billion dollar agribusiness

maybe this has something to do with it too

Their official reasoning for not renewing the contract is questionable. The stated reasons in the article are the inability to meet deadlines and lack of supply/lack of "proven value" whereas Pfizer has been on the ball here so far (and no guarantee that this continues). This seems fine for most normal procurement jobs but this isn't a normal job or situation. If they want it to be about clots or safety then say that, don't dance around the issue like supply chain or "value" is the problem. It's a problem but not the primary problem. There's generally always production issues early in a process!

There is almost a pathological inability for people to accept that these jobs deserve a decent wage.

 

The comments section immediately devolved into a fight about how "if people want to get paid more, maybe they should learn a job worth more".

 

In a story about businesses closing because they can't hire enough workers....

 

Working in a place like that for a long time, I have had many "cut off our nose to spite our face" experiences. Sometimes the business would literally rather hurt itself than admit you might be worth more.

In my experience, a lot of times these jobs have bosses who go out of their way to make the point that not that you're worth more, but you're not worth shit at all.
