What really puzzles me are the folks who disingenuously argue the climate is changing, but that it's not caused by human action. Because they admit there's a problem, but crucially still want nothing done to address or remedy the problem.

Mind-boggling.

Yeah, it's the independent source exemption to the fruit of the poisonous tree doctrine, basically. The original data collection wasn't illegal, as it was collected by a third party rather than the government, and so is admissable.

Yeah, with vacancy rates being so low the rates flattening seems to be an indication that landlords have squeezed almost as much rent as tenants can bear.

If milk shot up to $15/g before flatlining I wouldn't think that the cost would soon decrease, but rather that nobody would buy $16 milk.

Looks promising, No Starch Press has published some great tomes over the years. I especially enjoyed the Steal This Computer Book series by Wallace Wang.
