It’s even simpler than that: they leased the office space and have to continue to pay that lease or else pay an early termination fee. This is basically the sunk cost fallacy. But you are right that sometimes additionally they get tax breaks for certain office space, for instance the San Francisco mid-market tax break (AKA the Twitter tax break)

Cool that you used a “real” camera to do it. Just the experience of doing that is satisfying even if the photos don’t come out great.

In binary, when you add one more numeric place, things double. Not doubling would be like having two digit numbers but only allowing people to count to 50.

Were you able to run headless without installing snapd? I tried and tried, but there was some shared library dependency that always led to me having snapd installed, and after fighting with it repeatedly I found it easier to switch to Debian.
It’s really disappointing that snapd has even infected headless installs. I loved Ubuntu on headless, and I still use it as a docker base image.
- Comment on What's a good NAS and server system under CAD$900 (USD$658)? 1 month ago:
My go to for home servers for like 20 years has been used dell optiplexes. They are quite reliable, easy to find, pretty cheap, come in a few different standard physical sizes, and last a long time. The one thing they could do better at is energy efficiency. I spent a total of US $450 on the last two that I bought.

- Comment on Men over 30, have you ever been in a legit confrontation with a stranger? 2 months ago:
I stood up for a woman who was being harassed in the subway. The guy harassing began threatening me enough that others on the subway got scared and pulled the emergency lever. Cops showed up. Nothing came of it.
A woman’s dog on the beach threatened my family and she and I got into a shouting match.
Couple guys at a club started fighting so me and a buddy jumped in and we each subdued one of them and we all got thrown out of the club.
I’m sure there’s more…
