I'm not a fan of SF's bizarre city politics and NIMBYism, but... where can more housing be built? Much of the western half of the city is single family homes. As are neighborhoods like Glen Park, Bernal Heights, Potrero Hill, etc.

It's a cool app because I have a goofy friend whose daily banter rivals Karl Pilkington. "I wish someone was recording this" is said daily regarding his routine. That said, I personally would hate this app being used on mysel

Rural communities aren't great places to hide because everyone is nosey and tend to be suspicious about recent arrivals. Huge cities are easier to disappear into anonymity. That said, Moscow and Caracas aren't exactly rural hamlet

It's more like they kicked him out and wrote a snotty press release about it to save face.

You're right, of course. It's only $450 to go direct from Hong Kong to Moscow on Aeroflot. Perhaps I should reconsider my summer vacation plans. It costs more to visit my parents in Minnesota. Ugh.

Implementing a linked list is a good test if the job is programming in C. If you can't do it there's a good chance you aren't really a C programmer. It's a weird question if the job doesn't require programming in C.

I can't figure out how Borowitz got hired by the New Yorker. His satire is so consistently ham fisted and painful.

Yes, I'm pretty familiar with this topic. I'm not trolling, I just don't know what else was supposed to be done. It was a big complicated affair. My mistake here was contributing to the political noise that is taking over HN.

In LA people drive like that all the time. I am not sure why that part of the story is suspicious.

I'm not sure I believe that he's spent much time with iOS 7. There are some awesome changes under the hood but the overall experience needs a lot of work. Many of the built in apps that were changed seem like Apple spent about a h

The incorrect assumption is that I don't think you'll necessarily make more money by being a data science consultant rather than a django/flask developer. I don't know where you live but where I live you can make 60-70 U

Actually, I didn't have to buy a ticket to leave immediately, I just had to prove I had a return ticket. I just bought the cheapest one close to the date when my tourist visa would expire. I think it was around $600. There is no train
