The positives have to out weight the negatives of high crime, a large homeless population, high rents, small apartments, etc. Having nice parks is not unique to SF.

The Irish name selection on this site is totally bogus. Apparently Cody, Jacqui, and Kelsi are Engish & Irish feminine names. Those are not even Hiberno-English names. https://mixedname.com/english_irish_feminine_names

I think alternative sleep schedules are like alternative medicine. If they were actually feasible and beneficial, they would be commonplace, and even recommended. Especially considering how often posts like this come up here, there is obvio

Many, many people live out of the range of public transport. Not everyone can drive, private taxis _are_ an essential service.

This was the model back in the 2000s before monetization was big on the internet. This is really the key issue, not whether RSS feeds or dead or if it is too hard for people to self-host blogs. The internet has changed a lot in the last ten

Seriously, the poster is going to have to host their files somewhere eventually if they intend anyone else to ever see it. I can't believe they rewrote all their JS because they were forced to access over http:// instead of

Yes, visit tracking has been around for years. Here is one product ( https://support.google.com/google-ads/answer/6100636?hl=en ), I assume there are many more. I guess it's not more well-known because it'

I don't want to buy new clothes either. Where can I find clothes that will last 10 years. The article didn't help with any specifics.

I disagree, since the 90s in Ireland every convenience store big enough to have a deli counter has been selling Cuisine de France baguettes. Usually as the popular breakfast roll or chicken fillet roll. They are mass produced and crispy, th

I feel like the number one motivating reason is having a significant other who has a different native language. This also makes it a lot easier to make progress because you basically have your own tutor who is also motivated to patiently li

As a woman the opportunity to wear clothes just for their warmth and comfort is something I will never turn down. Being able to wear pyjamas was definitely one of the top things about working from home. Men don't have the same issues o

It makes me deeply depressed that real estate is huge right now, many more people than ever are renting and we still have to deal with Craiglist scams to find a place to live. Ignoring the fact that the last ten years of UX seems to have pa

Yes, but if the photos obviously unprofessional, badly light and taken with a phone- it is definitely _not_ a scam. Similarly, no dogs/no cats- almost definitely _not_ a scam. Every scam listing I've seen has had pets OK.

I really thought this was going somewhere until I got to the punchline: the expectation that having online identity linked to real identity will reduce toxicity. Real names policies have already been tried by several huge social networks an

In California property taxes are not re-evaluated when a property changes hands by inheritance. So, they really aren't paying anything close to the actual value.

FB's solution to unsolicited messages and spam was basically to make messages from non-friends totally invisible. I wouldn't really call it a dark pattern, but they have broken the ability to send messages to anyone who is not you

I don't find it that surprising, if the children were never registered as living at that address, why would there be any reason for the authorities to take an interest? It doesn't sound like any of them worked, so they didn't

Good point, and by not citing the flawed papers you are not inflating their academic pagerank.

You sound like an outlier, I routinely interview senior engineers applying to Google and a massive majority do not pass the coding test. I would say half are not even in the ballpark of passing.
