it was falling down the rankings.
- DorintheFlora 10y agoStill, it seems thin for HN. Even given that many people here live in California and HN is headquartered in California, it doesn't seem like something interesting, discussion worthy and meriting hitting the front page. I mean, I like this little tidbit about California and have for years. But this isn't particularly substantive.
- frozenport 10y agoYeah, its definitely Buzzfeed click bait, but there are other interesting indicators of California's growth. For example, California surpassed a number of states in average GDP per capita in the last few years. For example, in 2009 Illinois was ahead of California.
