The way I see it, but please correct me if I'm wrong (don't hold back), Putin (and Russian politics in general) is caught between the old and new generations of Russia, during the Jeltsin era we saw that being an all out liberal, democrat, power to the people person did not land you at the top of the country at all. This is still true probably (because you need backing of the old powers) so what is currently at the top in Russia is probably what will keep Russia together. I think that with the younger generation growing up, Russia will become more and more liberal, it will take time. Yes, many things in Russia are as they were here in the 60's (gay rights etc) but here we also had the time to mature (especially regarding personal freedom) without much violence. Why does the west have to rush things, make a Woman with a mustache win the EU song festival in the Ukraine, make the world press photo a gay couple in Russia? Is such pressure really the best?

Why not be friendly with Russia, show them the benefits of our society without enforcing our ethics? Why the war mongering? The EU also sneakily, under suspect circumstances put a pro EU person in Power in the Ukraine. This makes Russia afraid of the ever growing NATO. Are you part of a liberal minority? I can see you want change as fast as possible but what is as fast as possible?

I apologize if I come across particularly ignorant, it's difficult to find the truth between western news and RT. whenever I read RT I can certainly see and understand the fear of the NATO.

I'm currently reading the new Tsar (about Putin) so far he seems to be loyal to the wrong people sometimes but much less corrupt than he could have been given the people around him (but I'm only half way.) Also he didn't attack Turkey after they took down that fighter, even though Turkey is doing oil business with IS.

I'm not pro-Russia or Pro-Putin, I think we are worse of if we don't try to be friends. (I think the Russians love their children too ;) )

I suspect that if you think parentheses are the problem, they are not the problem.
They're not arguing about technology as such, they're arguing about productivity. The specific problems are not hard, just the organisation and maintenance of the parts. So it does probably matter a lot for this kind of work.

Yes.
I predict that security problems will be solved at airports once they fire the rest of the TSA.
Since I used d3.js for one project a few years ago, I have not touched jQuery ever since. d3 offers key jQuery features, but goes much more beyond that.
Ok, maybe the framework doesn't have much influence, but a language with sane types will make refactoring easier. I'm not saying it will make it easy, just easier than other languages.
Perhaps parent was referring to airports outside of India?
Because they're editors.
Ultimately it's not about "feeling connected to" but about identity and interests - people are wired to preserve the interests of their group (nations) above others.

Multiculturalism can work ok in rich and safe bubbles (such as some areas of Berlin), but my guess is that it will break miserably when put under a true test, such as a war. As Poland happens to share a border with an aggressive empire, it's a scenario we need take into account.

Why? What about busses, trains, boats and so many others busy places. I don't see any TSA there, and I don't see anything happening there.

I'm also pretty convinced that the liquid restrictions are purely for commercial reasons, as you can still bring enough liquid, separated over small bottles and multiple people if needed. Afterwards you can simply buy a bigger container in the airport itself...
This article misses an important point. Many of the far right ideas and tactics are very much part of the agenda pushed by mainstream parties all over Europe and the US.

For instance, spreading lies about immigration is the preferred tool of Tory brexiteers in the UK. The German CSU is not that different from the AfD either.

And in many ways the GOP (even without Trump) is far more right wing than some of the parties considered to be on the extreme right in Europe

Nah, I meant CE. I guess I should have specified "a while", heh.
The recent immigration wave in EU is not really about people who would be "left to die" if they weren't taken in.

They are generally not fleeing from immediate danger, and they select their target countries of migration based on perceived chances of making a living (by work or by social security) and having a community where one could live (usually one's own countrymen). The perception of where one can make a living is received from often fanciful messages in social media that are of course frequently quite wrong.

On the way, they pass through countries that are safe enough for them to stay. Countries that are safe for anyone to take holiday. Millions of people from EU have holiday in Turkey and Greece each year, for instance. Migrants come through these countries. They are certainly not being killed in Turkey, for instance, but they want more than that.

This doesn't mean that the migrants are bad people. They are looking for a better life, just like any of us would do. They come from many, many countries that are run badly. I can't blame them for wanting to emigrate. And the availability of Internet and improved economical resources and improved connections have made migration more feasible than ever, particularly with the European taxpayer paying the bill at the receiving end through the asylum process.

But the asylum mechanism meant for protecting persecuted individuals is largely being misused in this process. The public perception of the whole thing being a scam is strengthened by well-meaning but unwise poses and statements of politicians that later make them look ridiculous.

For example, thousands of people from Iraq came to my country last autumn. We were told that they were here because otherwise they would be killed. They complained about the food served to them and they complained that they were given too little money by the government. Now a significant portion of them has decided to go back to Iraq. Obviously, they weren't about to be killed back then, nor are they now voluntarily returning to their deaths. They just found that climate is not nice, and there are no jobs for untrained people. So the taxpayer hands out money for them to fly back.

That's what I call ineffective, and this kind of things gets voters mad. Calling these voters "right wing" or "Nazis" is not going to help. They well merely think: "I'm a reasonable person and they call me right wing; I guess the right wing is reasonable people then".

Pretty much. No engineer will decide to port Java to an embedded OS running on a foreign CPU when tasked with implementing a LOM system! The requirements are dictated by some other party. We don't know who the other party is, and we don't know what are the requirements. It's very normal to be skeptical of all this magic technology.

They even changed the CPU at some point. It used to be ARC, now it's SPARC. The LOM aspect of it didn't change. It worked just fine with ARC before. So why did it change?

There is no technical reason why implementing the LOM function is easier or better with one CPU compared with another. In fact, there's no technical reason why implementing anything is easier with one CPU or some other CPU. The new CPU seems even less power-efficient than their old one. The only reason why you'd want a particular CPU architecture is if you want to run some particular code for that particular CPU. And apparently running this secret code is so important, that it was worth the huge expense of porting all the other already-existing, already-working firmware they had before.
That is a great lecture, and worth linking to (hence this reply), even more so for its lessons about how changes in abstract thinking lead to changes in moral standards and behavior: http://www.ted.com/talks/james_flynn_why_our_iq_levels_are_h...

Not ironic at all, just coincidence. Of course there are situations out of our control like recession and war. But blaming others doesn't actually fix anything. All that anti-globalisation will do is massively raise prices on everything.

In my grandfathers era, a working man would have two sets of clothes, one for work and one for sunday best. Nowadays, even the poorest in a western society have a plethora of clothing. That is down to cheap chinese labour.

You can't get round it; if you raise tariffs, you end up with expensive chinese clothes. If you then build your own factories and bring it back onshore, you end up with expensive western-made clothes. The people may have good old-fashioned industrial jobs, but they can no longer afford to live. And that's before you even get into retaliatory tarriffs, where our high-price items suddenly lose half their export market. How much of Apple's revenue growth over the last few years has been from iPhone sales in China?

I must say while doing transit in Delhi I did not see such a system as well.
To me this is hypocritical.

- In WW2 polish were often refugees themselves. Something apparently now forgotten. Quick googling suggests that thousands of Polish people ended up in non-Christian countries like Iran (22,000) and India (10,000).
- Poland and other eastern Europe are some of the biggest Schengen beneficiaries, that a common asylum system is part of that contract is often ignored.
- In the Breit debate Poland is accusing the UK of scapegoating migrants while at home they're anti-immigrant themselves.
- Eastern Europe wants military help to defend against a possible Russian threat but ignores how countries like Greece are completely overwhelmed with this crisis.

In the end, the impression one gets is that Poland only wants European solidarity when it benefits them. As soon as it might get expensive for them, they much rather stay out of it. I look forward to the arguments, when the EU goes forwards with linking some of its subsidies to the number of refugees taken in.

But there is always only so many topics any one party and median voter agrees on. Many don't really adopt party identity and live by it. So having only few big parties is likely to cause distrust to political parties in general, because nobody accurately represents you. Which ought to translate to distrust to goverment as the big players have the power.

"Right-wing identity politics" does not automatically equate to genocide or expansionism. However, historically, nationalistic states usually exhibit a widespread "if you're not one of us, then you're at best a nuisance" attitude. Mid-20th-century Germany, Japan, and Italy are just the most obvious examples.
Full disclosure - I've already ordered one because I am excited to try and develop out in the sunshine, and laptop screen isn't cutting it. This is USB powered, and I'm hoping it will be good enough for text editor. Anyone had experience with these or any other e-ink devices?

I was really excited about e-ink technology, but it seems that there is very little innovation in this space, and I can't help but think this will really help for reading articles etc. too.
> Why? Where they everywhere?

They where [cis] not everywhere, but the incident was pretty widespread and every major city was having its "gathering". (Yes, western media does not care about that but that was what happened as they recounted). There is no way that someone living a major city did not know about it.

> Did they witness everything?

Regarding the actual facts, people have friends or colleagues who were working in Beijing so they could discuss it privately.

> Do they remember perfectly?

They don't have photographic memory but I am sure an incident like this would be memorable.

I hope you see the issue with seeing things in terms of "dog-whistle politics." It washes over legitimate concerns and narrows the Overton Window. Some (not all) people who call out dog-whistles are conscious of that effect and they use it as a weapon.

Ideally we could have a debate about whether it is acceptable for small groups of people to create and enforce local cultures provided people can make choices about whether to participate in those cultures or not. I don't think we are mature enough to do that yet.
> There's a shift underway. I think we'll see a repositioning of the GOP that will lead it to a majority in less than 10 years if not sooner.

I'd argue mostly the opposite. There's a shift underway, but I don't think it'll be to the GOP's benefit. Fiscal conservatives and social conservatives are slowly starting to realize they're very different and becoming irreconcilable platforms. You can see the fracturing already this election cycle.

Repositioning, sure. Majority? I think that'll take quite some time while they figure out what they want to be.

>Why not be friendly with Russia, show them the benefits of our society without enforcing our ethics? Why the war mongering? The EU also sneakily, under suspect circumstances put a pro EU person in Power in the Ukraine

Wait now... You are calling EU war mongering? Remind me again who invaded Ukraine when the Ukrainian people wanted to turn towards the west. In direct violation of the Budapest Memorandum.

Putin is no weakling being manipulated by the oligarchs. He may not show off his wealth but make no mistake, he tightly controls the Russian state and oligarchs - not the other way around.
Just because people died, doesn't mean we have to honor them and keep hold of what they caused. That's the logic of Christianity. Most soldiers don't really die for any noble purpose, they just fight other soldiers and eventually somebody wins. Nobody knows if the winner will end up good or bad, free or oppressive. It doesn't matter if people got themselves killed because they happened to choose the winning side in a historic war. Those soldiers certainly didn't know what the consequences were going to be. They just followed their naive emotions and/or threats of violence from their governments.
Hi, thanks for trying out! Mobile is definetly on my TODO list, but at the moment it only works for Desktop machines.
You know that goes both ways? You're also free to move to a different country where you get paid better. Now you might not want to do that, because you want your kinds to grow up in $country or some other valid reason but it's wrong to paint this as something singularly bad for the working class.
Attacking Turkey would (arguably could) invoke NATO, and start a war which Russia would certainly lose. That's a sign of sanity, not wisdom.

I gather the idea is that, while a bomb in the security cattle chute might kill hundreds, it's still preferable to a hijacked aircraft which can be used to kill thousands.

Regardless, the world is voting against unified culture right now. We have to deal with it.
