Because wealth is also distributed in a very lumpy way across the city. 154 residents of NYC own 33% of the entire wealth of the city... notice I didn't say 1%, I said top 154. They are not contributing 33% of the tax income to the ci

You're right, when I think of a place that has an overabundance of 2 floor single family homes, I think of Manhattan.

Oh dude, this game is going to rock your world. I'm like giddy for you experiencing this for the first time with no spoilers. I was like "meh" too at first ("what are people TALKING about?") and, then, it just gets

I have been watching this thread and you are triple downing on a point that you have no real experience with. Competitive e-sports is a real thing. There are e-sports arenas. (How are people even arguing this on HN?) The International (a

Datahorder here, a 26tb drive is about $375, so I don't think your quote of 30tb drive prices make sense. You can get about 80tb for $1000

I get it, remember the congestion zone isn't the entire borough of Manhattan. It's just below 59th street. And, if you were driving down there, good luck finding parking in the literal densest place on planet earth during work h

But we're talking about New York City here, not Kansas. Specifically the congestion zone which during the work day is the most congested place in the world (187,500 people/sqm).

I'm confused, if you lived in Westchester and were parking by Columbia why would you be in Midtown? Mind you, it's still like $14-$22 to cross the GWB and if you parked by Columbia after driving down from Westchester you don&#x27

You act like driving in NYC is free even without the congestion price. You realize how much it costs to park in Manhattan right? $50/day? And if you are coming from the Jersey side, you realize how much the toll is for the tunnel?

This is silly and then I saw the domain name. September was the best month in history for EV sales (especially leases which had no income restrictions on the tax credit) and this is because most people moved their purchase up earlier than

Sorry for the delays here. All the stories and comments missed should be backfilling as we speak. It's almost done. I posted updates further down, but wanted to post here since it's the top comment. We'll get an update on

Hey folks, sorry for the delay on this. We're investigating and I promise a response on what happened here. Will update in a bit when I have more, and will make sure to let you all know what happened.

No, if somebody has access to edit your home page directly, your blog, your company site, etc - you've already lost the game. How is this any different than your email address being compromised? How is this different than having your l

just like Bell Labs UNIX gave way to BSD UNIX which gave way to SunOS/Solaris which gave way to Linux... this is a tale as old as time. The question is will this end the same way?

I guess we can agree to disagree, but I find the 2020 rev Macbook pros have a good number of USB-C ports (2 on the left, 1 on the right -- all can do PD), a magsafe charger, headphone jack, HDMI port and SD card slot. How many USB-C ports

So weird (and I'm not a Tesla apologist at all) but I have never in 5 years seen this happen - and I've driven across America 4 times in a Model 3. In fact, mid drive Tesla will auto-reroute you to a supercharger station with more

Different market, different product. You ain’t scooting in Manhattan or San Francisco at 65mph. I assume this was a Vespa style scooter, not a “stand on a board with no protective gear at all” type of scooter?

I always thought it was lack of universities in Detroit. Henry Ford hated cities, “elites”, etc which is you don’t see a major Ford University in Detroit. There was no Leland Stanford or James Duke in Detroit. So no CMU, Case Western, etc.

I think GM and Ford are paying a licensing fee to use the supercharger network, not to use the connector type.

I can't help but feel like Google is going through their "Steve Ballmer CEO Phase". I wonder who will be the next CEO to fix things.
