I don't think that most people misunderstand the power of remote working. I work from home 99% of the time, but it is nice having the flexibility to go into the office when necessary. People also develop networks (professional and personal) during the time it might take to turn something into a remote opportunity and it is hard to separate from that.

No I think the tragedy of the commons would still take hold in SF without some kind of penalty in place (either by the company or by the government, or both) for leaving the bike in a bad spot. Of course this will require a method of enforcement as well.

I think it's more likely that they bought the domain to prevent scammers from trying to bait users onto a fake site and enter login info, and since they have it why not redirect traffic.

"The biggest thing that I think people miss is this: because it’s so much easier to capture images using digital technology, there’s a disconnect in people’s minds about how relatively easy or hard it is to protect, conserve, store, those images for the future… [With film], when you’re done, you stick it in an envelope, stick it in a drawer and it’s safe. Short of fires and floods, it’s gonna be there in 600 years and look just fine. Today, I don’t know that the imagery I have on a hard drive — I don’t know if there’s going to be technology that can read those files 5, 10, 15 years from now, so I have to continually keep backing them up and re-backing them up onto newer and newer media just so people can look at them when I’m dead and gone. Digital is far less archival than film."
Interesting argument. I think most readers will have a different perspective, especially with cloud backup. But there is reassurance in the physical.
"P: Who are some of your favorite photographers? T: Irving Penn, Arnold Newman, Philippe Halsman, Jim Marshall, Max Yavno, Arnold Newman, Joel-Peter Witkin, Ruth Bernhard, Herb Ritts, William Garnett, Joseph Koudelka, Sebastiao Salgado, and Horst immediately come to mind. There are more."
Some other work to check out in the future.

Did you consider trying to use speech recognition rather than spectrogram analysis?

I thought that by joking with Snowden in the way that he did, Oliver was trying to humanize him.
