Kampala, Uganda. I'll admit I'm surprised by the geographic diversity. Maybe some traffic analytics would be interesting to compare.

Because it is different. It's not part of the Eurozone so doesn't use the Euro. (ok, other countries like Sweden also doesn't) More importantly, it's not part of the Schengen countries in Europe, which means that a visa that gets you into most EU member states won't get you into the UK. It also means there are border controls if you travel between the rest of Europe and the UK. You can travel all the way from France…
You are suggesting that there are more cultural differences between France and England, than between France and Poland. I wouldn't say so.
I wasn't suggesting that, but perhaps it comes across confusing.
When it comes to cultural differences, I compare neighbours. The Eastern block also spent about half a century being isolated from the rest of Europe, so they have developed stronger cultural differences that are weakening again now.

Same here :) I'd expected to see more iHubbers and Nailabs folks here, though.

We're not that few.
That's great to hear... I said that because I tried to pull a Brazilian Hacker News meeting in Campinas or São Paulo and go 0 answers... :(
I'm in São José dos Campos and would go to a meetup either in Campinas or in São Paulo (apart from SJC, of course).

If it stays in the first page for 24 hours, the final result will be significant enough.
(in)significant enough, yes. "(Rest of) Europe" goes out through the roof and now guess which of the EU-countries.
Do non EU countries qualify for (Rest of) Europe ;)

Nope, countries like Switzerland, Norway, Ukraine, Russia and Turkey certainly don't qualify...

You found one!
I live in Jerusalem, and I am also a web developer
