A counterpoint to your last statement is that if Zillow really knew residential real estate they wouldn’t have had such large losses this quarter.
It really calls into question their pricing algorithm, but I give them credit for actually trying to get into buying and selling properties.
Thank you for pointing out the starting course of the sequence!
Ah, that’s a fair point and I can definitely see that working out.
Do you really think you’ll be treated the same by management if you pull that?
I recommend a novel called Disappearing Earth by Julia Phillips that is set on Kamchatka and a good amount in Petropavlovsk. It is very much not a wilderness survival book, but more of a mystery and social commentary book.
What are you working towards now? How did your outlook change?
Maybe this article was the one? https://www.theverge.com/2016/8/3/12325104/airbnb-aesthetic-...
Putting aside the awful human toll... I’m looking forward to reading and hearing from demand planners/time series forecasters about how they responded. Both in terms of updating models as well and how they communicated within their companies. One idea to alleviate the future forecasting challenges raise from this would be to add an explanatory variable/flag this time period. Another challenge will be if there are aftershocks and waves of social distancing required which could lead to more panic buying.
I would disagree that all US cities are like that. In the midwest, people will talk to strangers on the train or street in Chicago. Even in the coastal cities there have been instances where I’ve spoken w people around me if something funny or odd is happening.
Labor’s been screwed the last 50 years. What kind of six figures are we talking, mid?
I think the above poster, itissid, was referring to the US domestic oil export ban which was lifted at the end of 2015.
What are you talking about that no one lives near a metro line?
It’ll be on the same line as Shaw which is one of the most desirable neighborhoods for 20/30 somethings in DC right now.
I mean, Crystal City is pretty soulless, but a bunch of AMZN cash will make that millenial ready in no time.
Also, some nyt writer that’d never been there called it the Brooklyn of DC which was hilarious.
The metro is trying to improve the safety of the system after some fatal accidents a few years ago. The work force is unmotivated and maintainence reports are falsified. The wait times for the weekend suck and the system shuts down pretty early leading to fans at sports stadiums chanting, “metro sucks.”
Even with all that it’s one of the better transit systems in the US. Not as good as Chicago or NY, but for the size of city it’s good.
