The European Union was pretty much created to prevent Germany from starting another war (or more generally: to maintain peace in Europe).

The nazis wanted to "unify" Europe only in the sense that they wanted to annex all European nations and exert unlimited control over them. They weren't interested in creating a European identity, they merely wanted Germans to rule all of Europe (but not make Europeans Germans -- after all Europe was full of untermenschen they wanted nothing to do with).

In other words "unifying Europe" under the doctrine of Lebensraum basically meant conquering more territory for Germans to settle (and enslaving, deporting or exterminating the local population as necessary). Unless you're saying the EU wants to literally do that, the comparison is hyperbolic at best (and defamatory at worst).

The book does, and is well worth the reading time. I have Zero to One as an audio book and I am on my second way through it.

The concept that zero to one is much more valuable than one to ten helped me understand my own career better. I have always been a risk taker and even though some of my work projects over the last 30 years have failed, my bosses never seemed unhappy with me. I would usually really nail a few new ideas a year. This book helped me to understand why I seemed to get perks (like ocean view window offices at two consequative companies) that none of the other programmers got, even though they seemed to be much steadier workers than I was.

I was writing against the argument of trying to use Nazism in the argument we have here. Which someone tried his way with.

Of course it's true that the Nazis wanted something very close to the EU. It's been used by many opponents of the EU as an argument against it.

But of course it's a retarded way to argue because the current EU is not founded on nazism or nazist ideas.

My main thesis was that most political analysts are wrong in their attempt to make the increasing popularity of the right wing parties a question of racism, fascism etc.

Many of the parties originally gained their support with some of these voters but they have since then mostly developed into being simply National Conservatives.

And so their voters are not so much voting as racist but as skeptics when it comes to immigration especially from countries that are culturally far from their own.

They fear that a continued influx will destroy the culture and their nation. They just want to be left a lone so to speak.

Thats a very different sentiment than the nazis looking out for a specific race to exterminate.

They also want them to "stay in their own country" if they were actually born in the same country as they are. They think people belong in Africa if their skin colour is dark. It's pure racism.

The latter. The TSA screening process (a recent report had them pegged at 5% effectiveness[0]) is next to worthless and itself creates a security hazard/potential attack vector. The TSA screening process is also entirely reactionary -- shoe removal only became a thing after an attacker tried to hide explosives in their shoes.

If the TSA was pro-active and had a reasonable degree of effectiveness, then I'd be more willing to put up with it. As it stands, the $85 pre-check fee is more of a "pay us money and we won't actively put you at risk for no benefit" fee.

I don't see why not. It's a mobile operating system and in my opinion the privacy issues have been ridiculously overblown. I don't use Chrome, and I do use Ghostery and uBlock Origin and a few other things, but I have no problems using my Windows 10 set-up with Basic telemetry.

How Google Is Laying the Foundation to Kill Rogue Background Services in Android
I think he might be referring to this 2013 article:

http://www.vice.com/read/chinas-taking-over-the-world-with-a...

Selective breeding in a sense of "selecting the zygote" for ideal outcome. Aka designer babies. This was referred to as "selective breeding" in the press when it came out. A misnomer in that selective breeding has meant selective pairing of parents for at least a century before this article was written.

Note: this is also a company in China, not "China" although the distinction is sometimes muddled they certainly aren't regulating it like it has been in the West. Also, with the only one child policy that was recently lifted it is easy to confuse oppressive breeding requirements in China.

Imagine a conversation between a pro-EU politician and this car mechanic.

P: Vote for me! Free movement of labour is great.

C: Why? Then I will face competition from people who are willing to work for very low wages, and so will my kids.

P: Yea, but then you can move to France with your family!

C: Ok but I don't want to move to France. I don't speak the language. My friends and family are here. My kids go to school here. And why would wages be better in France, anyway? I'll face the same competition there.

Can you see why this may not be very convincing? On the other hand, imagine a conversation with the owner of the shop:

P: Vote for me! Free movement of labour is great.

O: Indeed, I'll be able to hire cheaper workers.
> You are not a refugee if you are fleeing several countries

It is pretty odd to me to assume that someone who has given up everything and spent all their money to leave, and thus has demonstrated a willingness to go to extremes to get away from their original situation, will cross a border and suddenly decide "hey, no point in seeing if we can get it better if we go a bit farther".

In other words, while I'm sure there are purely economic migrants who haven't suffered all that much hardship who try to take advantage of the refugee stream, it is possible to both be a genuine refugee fleeing for your life and also quite reasonably want to find the best possible place to live once you've managed to get away from the worst risk.

Not least because it is also about dealing with horribly poor information about where they might have the best chances at being allowed to stay.

If we want people to stay closer, then it needs to feel to people arriving in e.g. Turkey, like staying in refugee camps there is a reasonable choice.
From zero to front-end hero (part 2) – Everything JavaScript
You're right, the charts don't show that. But the charts don't tell the actual story.

Which is that all centrist parties have shifted right in their policy positions and rhetoric.

The charts only show power shifts between parties, but ignore shifts within parties. There's a lot of centrist parties that were rooted in Christian values for example, that were reasonable on e.g. refugee issues in the 20th century (which were much more significant than today, by the way), that now want to amend laws, retract long-standing treaties, create walls and border fences, disallow schooling/work/status for those refugees who do get welcomed so as to send them right back asap in god knows when Syria recovers from being a failed state, paired with hints of xenophobic rhetoric akin to a far right party. Yet they're still deemed centrist parties, and would not show it on the chart.

And that is precisely because the far right is on the rise, and the rest of the political spectrum is adjusting and compromising their stance, so as not to lose votes. That's a very clear shift to the right.

Like take the Netherlands, it shows a drop in the right-wing PVV's size since 2010 (forget for a moment that the party's currently leading in the polls). You'd think, alright no shift to the far right here at all. What it doesn't tell you is that the current biggest party (a non far right wing, right wing party) has shifted much more to the right. Like recently we saw it's 2nd in command claim refugees were visiting the Netherlands to get plastic surgery, breasts corrections, face lifts etc... I mean this guy is just a ridiculous demagogue, instilling fear into the Dutch population that Syrian refugees aren't actually running away from a gruesome war, but are merely looking to exploit our medical system to get plastic surgery, it's insane. If you'd have set this about jews during the holocaust there'd be no discussion, you'd recognised as a clear far-right fascist. And this is the biggest party's 2nd in line, straight out the playbook of a far right-wing demagogue.

Now this party isn't far-right for all intents and purposes, but it has very much shifted towards it on various policy positions and rhetoric, as have many centrist and right wing parties. And none of that shows up in the charts.
There is one nagging thread remaining: the theme that ones' own culture is elevated over all others, and deserving of first-class treatment. As an American, with neighbors and friends from all over the globe making my culture a mixing pot of music, food, work ethic, church and leisure, I am always puzzled by the European idea that somehow their culture will be destroyed by letting new neighbors live in their city. A century and a half after being settled our local cities all have strong cultural identities with their ancestral pioneering families. From city-wide events, to cultural centers and musical venues, to celebrations of food traditions. I can sample all this because I live among folks from all over the world. Without threatening my own history.

Note that I'm from a country where there are always 10+ parties in parliament, and governments are always formed by coalitions. The median voter theorem assumes 2 parties trying to get a majority.

Their standpoints get watered down a lot already after the election when they need to negotiate coalitions, I'd prefer if they were further apart beforehand so it would be easier to make the choice.
2014’s JavaScript versus today’s (or: How my old code holds up today)
IANAL, but yes - from wikipedia trademark page

"The law in most jurisdictions also allows the owner of a registered trademark to prevent unauthorized use of the mark in relation to products or services which are identical or "colourfully" similar to the "registered" products or services, and in certain cases, prevent use in relation to entirely dissimilar products or services. The test is always whether a consumer of the goods or services will be confused as to the identity of the source or origin"

To me, a consumer could definitely be confused by a name like that
Exciting news for jQuery.

Last night, I was working on a side project. For the front-end, I'm using React, React-Route, and I'm working on figuring out Fluxible. superagent to wrap XmlHttpRequest. browserify to compile what I serve to the front-end. I don't run a reverse-proxy with a node backend since the API is in PHP, I just served the minified JS files.

Honestly, it's a huge pain. And every module I toss in there seems to limit compatibility with the next one. The barrier of entry to doing things right is HUGE. Also, if you disable JS the site would be useless, 100%.

If I were to go with angular it would be even worse. I honestly may go back to jQuery on this project yet. I don't expect it to be huge, and since most Foundation plugins use jQuery anyway it should work. I honestly loathe how much crap I'm loading for two pages: sign-up / register.

I am also pretty new to docker and it took a few days to get my head into it, but I am using it mainly as a contained dev environment, similar to the way we use vagrant. I am finding that docker is much better suited to complex environments, and a lot easier to update.

Contrary to your fears of everyone having to learn docker to develop, I see it as a tool that allows every developer on a team to be brought into new technology without having to learn all about a new toolchain. We are using docker-compose for this. Everyone has to install docker, and have some cursory knowledge of docker-compose commands, but that's it.

As an example, I recently shoehorned an angular2 front end into an existing project. Without docker, this means every developer needs node and all the dependencies before they begin to work. With docker-compose, the next time they start up the environment, the npm container installs all of their dependencies, and the typescript compiler container listens and compiles all changes to the webroot. The other developers don't even need to know what node is, or that it's being used!

Docker is a very powerful tool with a lot of untapped potential I'm sure. I've no experience with docker in production, however.
Combined with XSS, it may not even have to be a dodgy website. A fair number of projects encourage people to copy and paste scripts into their shell in order to install these days.
You are confusing two different discussions here.

The refugees we talk about are hardly people who hang out on HN.

Multiculturalism works when there is time to adopt new cultures into your own. Sudden influx is going to create obvious conflicts when the cultures are that different.

And I say that as someone who is pro multiculturalism. But I am not ignorant to the consequences if done too fast.

Who Will First Monetize AI at Scale
This is an incredibly insightful post on depression. As a father of two young children, I am incredibly sorry for your loss and reading about it really struck me... Strangely enough, this thread being about mindfulness meditation, made me halt my instinctive reaction to keep scrolling and confront the emotions I was feeling reading it. My instinct was to keep scrolling and distract my mind with other things, but instead I realize your post confronts me with the terrifying possibility of losing my own children.

I think you really illustrate the difference between depression and sadness. Depression I imagine is like experiencing dulled senses, a vapid gray world of numbness. While sorrow and sadness are incredibly vivid emotions that can overpower us, like when they struck you so suddenly unloading groceries. I'm so sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing such personal information.

Exactly, I've been to a Vipassana meditation retreat, and the whole point is to eradicate suffering by eliminating feelings of craving and aversion. To see things as they are, without passing judgment.
This creates a clear mind, free from worries and dwelling, and a more stable personality. From this comes happiness, as this is our natural state of mind.

People tend to mix up pleasure and happiness and think meditation provides the first.

Meditation, just like a psychedelic experience, can show you where you stand in life, and this can be scary. One can find out that they've been doing things wrong all their life, or realize that they are on a destructive path. The changes required might affect their spouse, children, friends or their job, creating a seemingly impossible dilemma, to go on and keep suffering, or to change and hurt others.
