I don't understand what is challening about pathfinding specifically. Are there just a huge number of vertices and edges so known algorithms don't perform well? How big are the grids? Is it making the path finding look a certain way to humans that's the hard part?

LVT seems like a positive change, I agree.

> A company buying thousands of homes and then milking workers through rent for decades seems unethical.

Providing homes for rent is a service provided to people that they can pay for if they want to make use of it. An economic transaction involves an exchange for money. It is not milking someone. Is a grocery store milking you for food you buy?

A house has value. The people who built it had to feed themselves and their families. Land has value. It is not free. I have to pay expensive annual property taxes to maintain ownership. The services a bank provides are not free. Living expenses are a real thing and even if you can't afford it then someone else is going to have to pay for your housing.

I'm so sad. Rest in peace Mr Hawking. What brilliant mind we've lost.
