I'm not educated enough to speculate, but how is this different from the scale of global warming? As in, the earth is big, but we still manage to change our environment in such a short timescale. Will this another underestimation of our ability to screw ourselves?

What if they only vote in their best interest, putting burden on their young?

Simple really, joke that is not adding anything to the discussion is not appreciated here.

I think that would not happen, with all the difference and mess in implementation under multiple browsers (even with webkit based Safari and Chrome), and file watcher+auto reload is less of a headache.

Worst yet, this is happening worldwide as investors realizes this is a not heavily regulated investment methods.

- Single-parent families, with a parent living on minimum wage.

- Students.

- People are expected to leave their parents house at age 18. But without a proper trade skills, they can only earn minimum wage.

- etc.

But we may be missing the point here. Since this article doesn't seem to take into the consideration of other living expenses, even if we're talking about a family with two parents and kid instead of a single person: the family may still struggle to pay the rent plus bills.

On the other hand, according to [Numbeo survey](http://www.numbeo.com/property-investment/gmaps_rankings.jsp) , US has one of the lowest income to property pricing ratio worldwide. Whereas in the third world and developing countries, people are also struggling to afford a place to live.

But if you read further into the linked article (http://nlihc.org/oor), it talks about "two bedroom unit".

The original title of this submission "In No State Can A Minimum Wage Worker Afford A One Bedroom Apartment" is linked to an entire different link (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2015-05-22/no-state-can-minimu...).

Edit: since the title of submission has been changed.

I believe that is because many people don't want comment section in Hacker News turn into the one in Reddit, which consist of mostly jokes, pop culture references...things that doesn't really contribute to the discussion.

Looks like the prize has gone up to $75.

You can also use Wine + Foobar2000 (+plugins). It's running pretty smooth on my Mac (albeit rather ugly in terms of appearance)

When I did Project Euler, I couldn't come up with elegant solution that was derived from high enough abstraction using math, leaving me using brute force method that was not really efficient.

I was fascinated by how people come up with elegant math solution for the challenges in Project Euler. I am not sure how I can achieve such elegance, proving my math is insufficient for what can be done.

Where can I start learning math on my own? I always thought math books are arcane in the sense that perquisites math knowledge for one book are so vast that I couldn't wrap my head around one.

And if I may add, I hate the fact that I have to put credit card information on this free account.

"In comparison"

Also in case you need to use another port (such as 5000):

> python -m SimpleHTTPServer 5000

Thanks for the RSS :D Unfortunately, I've got the same problem: the latest issue is #10 on my Google Reader.

Is there any rss for the archive?

Googling topics on "C" has been tough for me for the past 15 years.

Bonus point for me trying to filter out C++.

I've always wanted to use mongodb as my primary data storage due to its convenience and all.

But how it's consuming all my memory has always been a problem, at least to me. (And afaik, it's currently not possible to limit its memory usage)

Do you use a dedicated Mongodb server with huge amount of RAM for this?
