That's the data used to generate the map, I was linking to where they got those numbers from.

They probably just downloaded the states individually ( http://nlihc.org/oor/2014/NY ) to get the 1 bedroom numbers.

Google charges a $300 one-time install fee for the free 5 Mbps internet and $70 a month for the 1 Gbit internet (install fee waived). Many people have calculated that they are making up the costs in just a couple of years. I haven't se

I don't know what information they are trying to suppress but in my opinion gag orders are wrong and the US government should have to thoroughly justify any action that goes directly against the US constitution. Say the plans for the U

The concept of starting with an MVP is very important. You're not going to build a better Facebook by adding more features than they have, the only way to do it would be to create a simpler platform and focus on the users who find your

Be very careful when adding too many features, because if you ever want to take them away (to simplify the site / UX) your users will hate you. Just changing the look of a page will usually make people go crazy. Ebay's yellow back

This is the only version of "2048" that I've actually found that is fun and interesting. Thank you! I'd like to see a larger version though, 3x3 is fun but 4x4 would be awesome! In other 2048 games all of the combination

Dodgeball is very fun. I'm not a fan of the hard rubber balls or volleyballs that are used sometimes, foam balls won't give you a bloody nose if you are hit in the face with one. Would it be an issue to separate children and let p

I think it would be much easier to land back at the original launchpad (or nearly). It could easily tip over and explode, similar to what happened to NASAs vertical landing rocket.
