Also this seems to suggest that honolulu is the 5th most expensive city in north america: https://www.expatistan.com/cost-of-living/honolulu I imagine smaller parts of hawaii are even more expensive because they'r

Okay, but if you're only talking about SF then that's pretty silly. Because there are parts of the bay area that are much cheaper although I get that even they are expensive. But if you're paying to live in SF proper or Pal

Housing maybe, although not the stuff I have imagined in my head. Everything else is really expensive in hawaii though because of shipping costs and lack of scale.

My dad is from Bogotá so I probably notice it more. I do remember one time he was looking for some world cup gear and we went into a sports store and he thought they had misspelled "Colombia" because a hat had "Columbia&quot

Be careful with spelling here. You get it right once and wrong the other time. Columbia - University in NYC Colombia - Country in South America I make so many spelling mistakes I hate to correct, but when I ready your first sentence I thou

I don't know, being in that demo, seems like the main issue is that I don't meet many people through normal activities. And some of the hobby-like activities where I go to meetups are things aren't really filed with people I

Sometimes the 50 different sets of laws is a feature sometime it's a bug. The spec is pretty terrible.

I actually think that's an awesome business. A) eSports are growing, but many have not found clear revenue models. B) Would be awesome if you could figure out a way to actually fund leagues based on revenue brought in. Almost a horse-

I am definitely not a lawyer, if you listen to me for legal advice you're an idiot, however: I don't know details, but I think Fan Duels model has had some court tests and it was ruled a game of skill (in a way that poker was not

The churn is so high on dating sites that everybody is constantly re-acquiring customers. One test for anti-trust is also how they think the market would respond to a price increase. Yes, you need a critical mass of people, but what this m

That's pretty amazing. I played so much warcraft 2 over lan back in the day, but having played broodwar, warcraft 3, and starcraft 2 the game did seems a bit flat? I am assuming you're reasonably good or you wouldn't have s

I've never been an MMORPG player, but know lots of people who have played UO and WoW. Hasn't WoW been pretty successful at keeping people engaged?

Yea, I just really like that I can access all of my open tabs with it. It also context switches better with iOS outlook if you click on links you can quickly go back to outlook.

This article is so trolly. I don't mind the headline even, but it's literally a hearsay quote. That's just the tip of the iceberg: "Tesla Motors now has a huge incentive to get the RoboCar on the road by 2020, but Mr.

Ah zeno's paradox. When the SSD matches the HDD price, in 28.5 months, the HDD will have moved, and so on and so on. Although at some point they'll probably just make many many fewer HDDs so the price will stop moving much. For

Amazon doesn't set the prices though, the problem setter does. I think that's a meaningful distinction as there is not one rate for everything.

I mean possibly yes. But they also might hope to someday have 4 digit numbers of users and know they can shame states, especially reddish states, by claiming they have too much regulation. Worked pretty successfully for zenefits in Utah.

She was a fine culture fit. I can tell you this because they kept her around for quite a while. Bad culture fits don't last, especially not at a well-run firm. Culture fits aren't soul mates, there are still normal difficultie

Yes, similarly, nobody says an SUV that get 10 highway MPG are bad for road trips even though clocking 30,000 miles per year will cost an extra 3 thousand (and that's after the fall in gas prices) dollars per year over a 20mpg vehicle

You realize this is such a small part of the overall driving experience? I don't know how people are convinced this is a huge deal. It is possible to rent a car for the 1 or 2 days a year you have to drive 400 miles in a single trip.

I use the format: foo = 'foo' bar = 'bar' print "%(foo)s%(bar)s" % locals() which I guess is what this is similar too. basically locals(), vars(), and globals() I find very useful for string formatting.
