The rampant gratuitous flagging on HN has gotten out of control, this thread is exhibit A. Stop flagging stuff. If it has the slightest tinge of humor or sarcasm it gets flagged. Put the flag down. It's OK to be a little funny somet

Pure horse shit, about "lower cost areas". I suspect there is a right wing shill hiding somewhere here. The founder's appearance on Shark Tank has the smell of it. Why else would you go for such a ridiculous headline.

I don't understand why there are so many 4-year and Masters programs that are so expensive. Who has $60,000 for a degree? They are priced with the expectation that you will take on debt and slave away for 30 years at the profession f

Why do I still get an instant headache when I read Twitter. It's like a bad meeting with a few blowhards that suck out all the air, except magnified by 100x.

Apple is not alone in making janky laptops since 2015. Most of them are junk. They all get too hot, have too much brittle plastic, and low rez displays unless you want to pay a high premium. I've been liking the Chuwi laptops for $2

Techies have been leaving San Francisco for cities ... for over a decade. Not so much true if you look at the numbers. It's more just additional growth in the other areas.
