Madrid was just Madrid-Barajas, the name was changed to Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas a few years ago, it should be one of the airports longest name

Reply to [OC] Zoom CEO Eric Yuan will be taking a 98% pay cut and forego his bonus for FY2023 by giteam
This guy built something really useful. He's not only a CEO but a guy that built something that matters and took all the risks of building a new business. He definitively deserves more

Reply to comment by hatsuseno in [OC] Median House Price to Income Ratio By Country by proof_required
You can check here but their median house price calculation is something like this
public double calculateMedianHousePrice() {
return (calculateMedianHousePriceCityCentre() + calculateMedianHousePriceOutsideOfCentre()) / 2;
}
Also
> Price to Income Ratio is the basic measure for apartment purchase affordability (lower is better). It is generally calculated as the ratio of median apartment prices to median familial disposable income, expressed as years of income (although variations are used also elsewhere). Our formula assumes and uses: > * net disposable family income, as defined as 1.5 * the average net salary (50% is assumed percentage of women in the workforce) > * median apartment size is 90 square meters > * price per square meter (the formula uses) is the average price of square meter in the city center and outside of the city center

I'd like to know how to do to get my name on the airport. I guess that in current times is only a matter of money only. What do you think?

Reply to comment by Calixare in [OC] Namesakes of the 101 busiest airports in Europe by john_vandenberghe
You need more than that - London has at least 6 airports. But a specific place name should suffice.
(London Heathrow, Gatwick, Luton, Stansted, City, Southend, Oxford, Biggin Hill, Heliport, RAF Northolt, Lydd...)

That's one opinion. Though, I think it can be a nice way to honor a national or local hero, like naming the gateway to your country. Though I wish there were more scientists and fewer politicians.

Such a naming is absolutely stupid idea IMO. All you need as a passenger is a city name only.

Yes but it would suggest that house prices remain high and buying remains desirable?

Not sure where they pulled these numbers from for NL; but looking at the median income (around 38k gross) and the average price for an appartment (multiplier 9.8) or a single family home (multiplier 11.8) I don't see how one could reasonably come to a factor of 7.19 in the graph.

Because I'm these examples the unintended consequences are that you get younger generations who are more supportive of policies like increased public transportation options and sustainable development.
I obviously don't think that the two examples mentioned here are the sole driver of these shifts in viewpoints, but they are certainly part of the soup.

I suppose never ending war and poverty would be the big cause.
In general what we see here is even with all the exorbitant housing prices in most of developed countries, the situation is much worse in poorer part of the world. Iraq and Palestine seem to be the only odd country in bottom 20.

Reply to comment by merkaba_462 in [OC] NHL: Boston Bruins are Doing Well by Hyper-Fluid
No it won't.
We already know that Boston is coming first, Toronto will play Tampa (home ice to be decided), and the only thing left to play for is which team gets to lose to Boston in R1.

I think you missed the point. In most places sales tax is around 8%. Walmart makes 3%. The govt makes money by you shopping at Walmart, instead of at mom and pops that are far harder to tax properly.

Why are Syria and Ghana so high? What's going on exactly to cause this specifically in these two countries?

Curious about the use of that metric. Why not use EBITDA? I would guess that an independent retailer has more depreciation cost than amortization, or maybe it’s uneven across the sector and this evens it out? Just curious.

you think anti-tax policies that advocate for cutting military are bad?
