Save Money on Rent With an ‘Airbnb-Friendly’ Apartment

Image
Photo : AlesiaKan ( Shutterstock ) R ent prices are crazy high , and they don’t seem to be decreasing any time soon . According to Vox, the typical U.S. monthly rent in August went up 12.3 percent over last year . Renters feeling the pinch have often resorted to temporarily renting out extra rooms on services like Airbnb, but that’s usually a violation of your lease. But a new program between Airbnb and landlords seeks to make it actually legal. Airbnb-friendly apartments is a new program allows you to sign a long-term lease for an apartment and then list it as a short-term rental—whether for a day or 180 days a year—without violating your lease or risking being penalized by your landlord. “As the cost of living continues to rise, renters can use the extra income earned by hosting part-time on Airbnb to contribute to their rent, save for a home, or pay for other living expenses,” said Nathan Blecharzyck, c o-founder of Airbnb, in a company statement . What is an “Airbnb-friendl...

Shopify scraps big Toronto move, dealing blow to office market

Image
Shopify’s planned move into The Well - a high-profile retail, office and residential development encompassing 7.7 acres at King Street West and Spadina Avenue in Toronto - has been cancelled. Sean Kilpatrick/The Canadian Press Shopify Inc. SHOP-T has scuttled plans to move into a splashy new office tower in downtown Toronto, adding to the growing inventory of unused office space in the country’s largest business hub. The Ottawa-based e-commerce company was supposed to be the major tenant in the Well Tower, a massive, newly-built office, residential and retail skyscraper owned by real estate investment trusts Allied Properties and RioCan. But Shopify has abandoned plans for the move even though it has a 15-year lease that legally requires it to continue paying rent on the space. Shopify spokesperson Alex Lyons confirmed the decision in an e-mailed statement to Tausi Insider. The news was first reported by the Toronto Star, which recently moved into the Well Tower. If Shopify stopped p...

An Existentialist Guide to Feeling Nothing

Image
I recently watched “ the greatest film of all time ,” and the most boring one. In retrospect, the title alone should have been a sufficient warning: Jeanne Dielman, 23 Quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles . Alas, I’m old enough to be a bit nostalgic about massive telephone address books. And massive it is. Clocking over 200 minutes, Chantal Akerman's 1975 dreary drama follows three days in the monotonous routine of Jeanne, a widow, a mother, and a prostitute. I watched Jeanne’s autopilot existence, until, staring at her back as she washes dishes, I decided to fast-forward a couple of minutes, only to discover she was still at it. And Jeanne is equally thorough when she’s busy baking, cleaning, folding laundry, or shining her son’s shoes. She speaks so scarcely and mechanically, that it’s impossible to detect any emotion or volition beyond her carefully controlled chores . Watching Jeanne Dielman is what the word “painstaking” was invented for. Chantal...

What Are SQL Stored Procedures and How Do You Create Them?

Image
Stored procedures: like functions for your SQL. A stored procedure is a batch of SQL statements created and stored on a database. You can reuse a stored procedure over and over again. A stored procedure can accept parameters, run a query, and return results. Many users can call a stored procedure and different applications can call it with different parameter values. What Are the Benefits of Using Stored Procedures? Apart from allowing multiple users and applications to reuse it, a stored procedure has other benefits. It is easy to modify. You can change a stored procedure when necessary and these updates will be reflected for all users. Furthermore, you don’t need to redeploy your application when you modify the stored procedure. It reduces network traffic because the server only passes the procedure’s name over the network and not the entire query. It improves database security since users don’t have direct access to tables. To make...
