You have a very nonstandard definition of “rich” if it encompasses the entire top quintile. (Of modern industrial/post-industrial civilizations — we’re not talking about compared to Haiti.)
Sorry for the double-reply, but I meant to also say that you’re right about shared households. I live in one, and think they should be encouraged and thought about beyond “need new roommate, post to craigslist.” I suppose “intentional communities” is the jargon for what I mean.
SF refuses to permit building more real estate or even building upwards
I guess you haven’t looked anywhere in the direction of Rincon Hill in the past few years. Or been to South Beach, or Mission Bay, or looked at Lennar’s plans for the Candlestick area. I look forward to all this luxury development increasing the housing supply and driving down rents. I’ll just be over here not holding my breath.
Not everyone wants to look like a bike messenger. (re: real briefcases, not this thing.)
The Russians are building floating nuclear power stations to be deployed to the Arctic.

It's not too hard to imagine someone leaving, say, a piece of antique furniture but not the diaries stored inside.
The article doesn't mention if/how the wrong answers correlate to age or poverty. If you're old enough that computers are still a strange new thing, or poor enough to never have had access to one outside the public library, it's not surprising you wouldn't know those terms.
Maybe I'm giving them too much credit, but I assume the FBI would be aware of Comcast's wifi sharing initiative. Just like running a coffee shop with free wifi that a customer did something unsavory with; the feds wouldn't come kicking in the door assuming that the shop owner was the culprit. They might knock and ask to see logs, but in this case they would get those from the ISP.
I don’t think Godwin applies to Farenheit 451.
Right! Slashdot's target audience are people who hear "back door" and think physical door.
They probably think “porn.”
“Formal race” probably means one governed by a recognized sanctioning body.
Where did anyone call this a "zero emissions" car? The summary mentions completing one lap with no emissions, but nobody is saying it's a zero-emissions vehicle.
E = MC ** 2 +- 3db
