Same impression (from Brussels, Belgium). + as a freelancer, it's actually quite possible to get rates in Brussels that are around 80% of what you can get in California (500€/day is totally possible).

For the record, for the rent of a 1 bedroom appartment in SF, you can get a 240 square meters house in the center of Brussels.

Also, actual Glen Park[1] has almost no apartment buildings -- it's almost entirely single-family homes.

So if you're only looking at apartments-for-rent within the given radius, your data is going to be almost entirely dominated by places in Sunnyside, Excelsior, and Diamond Heights.

I work beside one of the on ramps to the Bay Bridge in SF, recently they've started stationing someone there about once a week. He seems very busy but I've been surprised at how little it has improved traffic yet.

Similarly though, I wonder what would happen after a weeklong publicized clamp down on blocking the box.
Germany is pretty great for rent and general cost of living in some lovely cities. London is probably even worse than San Francisco, though.

"The drm/i915 driver is now mostly based on the Linux 3.8.13 implementation and is no longer similar to the FreeBSD driver. Many Linux APIs and data structures have been implemented in the DragonFly kernel in order to reuse as many parts as possible of the Linux drm/i915 code without modifications."

I was wondering how did they deal with licensing issue. I thought Linux drivers are all under GPL. And DragonFly is (obviously) under BSD. Then I've noticed gpu/drm/i915 has a permissive (MIT?) license. E.g.:

https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/drivers/gpu/dr...

Is it true for everything else under gpu/drm directory? What license does DRM have?
Agreed, but HN requires me to copy the title exactly. Otherwise I would have changed it to appeal to a more global audience.
I agree that people shouldn't be living on the streets. However I'm not sure about regulating rents. If you decree that people should be able to pay $500/month for a 2 bed apartment in SF, who is actually going to provide that rental? The only possible way that will happen is if the government provides the rentals. Now, that may be a good way to do it, but it certainly won't work with private rentals - landlords will simply not bother renting at all if they're going to lose money on the deal.
//Disclaimer: I am not a lawyer.

I can not find a source on Marine Le Pen actually being convicted, but Wilders was not. He was charged, however this only happened after enough citizens pressed charges: initially the public prosecutor declined to do so until they were forced to do so (Dutch law allows victims to fight the prosecutions decision to not press charges). It came to a long trial (he was charged for inciting hate/violence) and the court ruled that he was not guilty, but said it was on the edge of legality.

Basically, it is (legally) okay to say that the Quran incites hate in people, or that middle-eastern immigrants hold backwards customs which clash with Dutch tradition. That is considered part of public discourse. But you are not allowed to then say "And therefore we need to remove them all, by force if necessary" as now you are inciting violence.

Furthermore, Wilders was at the time (unfortunately imho) not the leader of a "minority party" see for example this: http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kabinet-Rutte_I#mediaviewer/Fil... It shows the distribution of seats in the Dutch Parliment. PVV is Wilders' party, 'rest' is the remaining parties.

I loved having the debugger separated out onto its own screen, even if it was a monochrome screen showing a bunch of tiled windows drawn with CP437 text-mode characters. To this day I miss the perfection of that setup.

One of the first times I had to use a "modern" 32-bit debugger, one with its own top-level window on the normal desktop, I was trying to find a bug triggered by focus events. Every time I hit a breakpoint, the focus would change to the debugger, dropping another focus event into the event queue, which would naturally trigger the breakpoint again once I stopped single-stepping. Having the debugger embedded in the system you're trying to debug can be very, very annoying.

I don't think this is better personally. I prefer the use of pushState and back button taking me to the previous slide.

If I really want to back all the way out of the slide deck I will notice after a couple of clicks I need to do something further to go 'all the way back' and right click the back button and click a 'non-slide-deck' selection from that menu.
Yikes, this sounds like a personal nightmare. Maybe I can use the time to work on other projects or open source stuff.

About 80% of folks I know with kids leave San Francisco before they turn 5. The big issues are high rent, variability of school quality and logistics getting kids+gear around. City has done some great work to upgrade the kid's parks but the rent, schools and logistics make it very expensive to raise kids in SF.
You do not have to re-draw the canvas during transitions. Believe it or not, it is possible to do AJAX declaratively and with progressive enhancement. My approach is to develop forms normally, then add a directive that intercepts them via AJAX, "cuts" certain pieces of the target page and "pastes" it into the current page. It is a very simple, generic and flexible approach. The markup looks like this:

<form action="/something" submit-to="#x, #y"></form>
<div id="x" />
<div id="y" />

Normally, the only thing I need to add to go from non-AJAX to AJAX is submit-to="[CSS Selector Here]". Possibly, some IDs. Everything else works automatically. The library adds a certain attribute to the "pasted" parts, so I can add visual transitions via CSS3. I can use form's action URL to rewrite current URL via push state.

If you look at the numbers closely we see that 12% less is put into the public system in the US than the OECD average. This pattern is true of most things in America, you put more dollars into health care and education than other countries, but most of that ends up in private systems. So, if you have money you get the best education or healthcare in the world. If, you however you don't fit into that bucket what you get is far less.

My experience from those that I know in the US (middle class) either have their children in private schools, or they choose where to live based on which neighbourhoods have a good public school. This behaviour, as far as I am aware, is unheard of in those countries in the top 10.

Regarding the questions you raise, some can be answered if you follow the link to the original report.

What bothers me the most about your response is to completely discount a well researched report because it doesn't answer all possible questions. Sure, maybe race plays a role. But, if you want to answer that you need to ask different questions than this report did.

What you need to do is look at the report as a whole and reflect on it. Sure the US may have the greatest GDP, but in so many other factors lags behind other countries, is optimizing for financial return really what we as a nation need to strive for?--That is the takeaway that you should contemplate, not nitpicking over answers that the report didn't set out to address.

This read starts out and is premised on a falsehood:

An interview with Aaron Swartz‘s defense attorney reveals that, though the government was threatening Aaron with between 30 and 50 years in prison if he went to trial and was convicted.

Not only was Swartz not threatened with 30 years, but the prosecutors themselves threatened him with (an itself implausible) single-digit-year sentence. Swartz's own attorney thought it likely that even were he convicted, he wouldn't end up serving a custodial sentence.

It sucks when this case gets brought up, because the only way to get to the truth of it requires people to sound like they're defending Steve Heymann, the prosecutor in the case. There was a great deal wrong with the case. It's just that a 30-year sentence wasn't part of it.

It doesn't seem it would. The CO2 is from seawater; burning releases it into the air. Since seawater has many times the density of CO2 as air, it would definitely be a net greenhouse gas process.

Don't worry. Everyone here in Europe (and probably elsewhere too), has been spending the last few thousand years convincing themselves that this just isn't so.

>The number of counts charged in CFAA doesn't appear to have much to do with sentencing.

This is a bit counter-intuitive. In any type of sentencing hearing, if there is any discretion whatsoever, the number or counts/charges is always used an aggravating/mitigating factor. Actually the same goes for negotiating a plea deal, that is why I say 44 felony counts negotiated down to a single misdemeanor is an acknowledgement by the prosecutor something is wrong with the case.

>Incidentally: you probably can be charged with breaking and entering for checking your neighbors window locks.

Yes, but this would generally result in a single count, notwithstanding how many times the defendant "checked" doors/windows. However, in this case the Defendant was charged with an additional count for each time he tried to "unlawfully access" a given system - which was sometimes multiple times in the course of a minute (the proverbial "door/window check"). The point is the CFAA law is undeveloped and as a result the prosecutors are taking a mile with the inch they are given.

I'd like to see the followup post, "how we spent time and money creating a useless infographic". If the data is just bad (see HN comments here), how is it in any way helpful? You have to start with valid data.
I think you're going to need to be more specific about the way you're saying multiple counts enhance sentences. Here's a relevant chunk of the sentencing guidelines:

http://www.ussc.gov/guidelines-manual/2012/2012-3d11

In any case, this "440 year" nonsense comes from taking the product of the maximum sentence for all counts, which is simply not how sentencing works, or anything like it.

It depends if you mean SF or are including the surrounding area.

The few people I know with kids in SF proper are either dual-income or did well on a startup. Some people live in the Sunset, which is more suburban -- still expensive but at least a little more kid friendly.

Most everyone else I know leaves the city for a suburb. Essentially having kids means your commute gets longer!

(Although in my case it actually got a lot shorter because I also got a job a lot closer to home in the South Bay instead of working in SF).

> Always have been, really, with a lot of boilerplate.

Many uses of first-class functions is for reducing boilerplate to begin with.
That's a terrible case.

Firstly, H.265 is still in progress and it will be built into Windows, iOS and OSX at some point. That means that Firefox, Opera and Chrome don't need to implement it. They can just defer to the OS implementation. And there is nothing to suggest that H.265 won't follow the same path as H.264 i.e. dominate: http://caniuse.com/#feat=mpeg4

Secondly, it is completely disingenuous to say "VP9 matches H.265 in video quality" when it is only at low compression. The whole point of VP9 is to be an open solution for the web i.e. it will be used at high compression. Every comparison we have seen to date suggests that VP9 is more of a competitor for H.264 not H.265 at this level.

Thirdly, nice work completely ignoring the rest of the consumer electronics industry. MPEG LA is stacked with almost every important player in video/photo camera, console, television.

Our entire raison d'etre is predicated on coming up with interesting, high-risk ideas and carrying them through the various stages of market validation, prototyping, iteration, and growth. Because of this, we are working really hard to become and remain the best place for brilliant people to build awesome things.

We try to clearly define our values (just like Valve/GitHub), build them into our products, and use them as a heavy filter for hiring. We also go out of our way to ensure total transparency in the team, using GitHub for everything from sales to hiring so that everyone can see the stage everything is at, decisions leading up to a particular status quo, etc. Also everyone has an equal voice in jumping in to suggest / push forward changes.
