Yes. It reduces supply in the long-term housing market by taking a unit that otherwise be permanently occupied and renting it out short-term. I like staying in STR's when I travel, but I think this is a case where some regulation is reasonable. Hotel rates are so much higher than long-term rental rates on a nightly basis that there's a strong market incentive to use your property as an STR rather than LTR.

It's about time that somebody built something like this. Nomorobo maintains a robocaller blacklist and uses the simultaneous ring feature of your phone provider. When the call is from a blacklisted number, they answer and immediately hang up.

Do you really think the vaccine-autism thing is a "lefty pop-topic"? As far as I can tell the sets of people who deny climate change science and those who deny vaccine-autism science are nearly disjoint.

It's from the Old French crevis or modern French écrevisse, having something to do with crabs, not lobsters.

For what it's worth, it is also spelled, not just pronounced, "crawfish" in Texas and Louisiana.

There was a really nice paper at the last IEEE Security & Privacy conference where they did an analysis like this on blog postings.

I tried a similar analysis for a class project using Twitter data, and it worked surprisingly well considering the small amount of data in a tweet. Would-be-anonymous posters beware!
