Yeah, and the other thing is that the square footage of a "median" home and its lot size also varies greatly between these places. Not only are homes cheaper outside SV, they're also usually bigger and sitting on bigger lots.

There are a few ways to decide who picks the arbitrator. Depending on how the agreement was written, one party may get to pick, or both parties may need to come to a mutual agreement. I recently saw one where each party picks an arbitrator,

My first reaction is: "This won't work because you'll have to get every business, government, and other entity to agree to use it. Which they won't."

I have to laugh a little at this. You just said, "Go through these 2 tutorials, and try out this tool, and then you'll be able to re-read the introduction and understand it (90%)!" I've learned Source Safe, Perforce, and

I grew up in Flint, MI in the 80s. We didn't just think it was the worst place in the country to live – Rand McNally actually rated it as the worst place in the country to live! But teen angst aside, I got a really good education, and

Very neat idea, and as others have said, cool animations! However, I'm not sure I buy the premise that "Social media signals can be used to give a rough picture of foot traffic around places of business," at least in general.

Sounds horrible! I shouldn't have to give them my address book to find out if whomever is calling me is a spammer. I wonder what they're doing with the data? Also, phone numbers change hands. What happens when my friend John Doe c

For me, it's both. I don't trust J. Random Food Service handling payments (and adding fees) for local restaurants when ordering via the web. (Most are too small to set up their own service, so they use crap like "GrubHub&quot

I find this to be a worse user experience. I would rather wait the 5-10 seconds for the high quality stream to buffer than have every video look really crappy for the first minute, then slowly get better. I guess I'd prefer a consisten

I think I agree with the spirit of this guideline, but I have serious doubts that it can work. Here's why: I joined HN a year or two ago. I didn't go back and read any posts written before I joined. Anyone joining after today will

There's something weird about paying $55.00 for 32 $1.00 bills, though. I mean, I can understand shipping and handling, but a 71% markup seems a bit much.

Is it learning obedience and worshipping the clock, or is it patience and self-control? I went to lunch with some coworkers the other day. The restaurant we went to told us there would be about a 5 minute wait because some machine or other

When they say they've "written 2,000 checks worth $45,000," they're basically saying they'll pay you, on average, ~$11 per referral? Most employers I've worked for pay at least $250 per referral for regular wor

I'm glad someone's talking about this. There was some talk of moving my office to open-space, and I've tried hard to discourage it because it would make me less productive. One recommendation to wildbit, though - that stairca

If you're finding your system is unstable, it's probably due to using XtraFinder. That hack does various unsavory things that can cause stability issues.

I don't think it's clear at all. For someone who visits the site without participating (for example to read an answer that showed up in a Google search), they see a bunch of good answers. That looks like a high quality site. Edite

It just sounds to me like they're saying they only want engineers who already know everything about everything. Sure, I'd want that too if I were hiring, but it doesn't seem very realistic. It also makes me wonder about their

I'd like to thank Brianna for writing this and keeping it in the media. Just as with the video of the women walking in New York and being harassed, a lot of us don't get to see this first hand.
