Non-western countries also take large numbers of refugees:

"Turkey hosts 2.5 million refugees from Syria, more than any other country worldwide

Lebanon hosts approximately 1.1 million refugees from Syria which amounts to around one in five people in the country

Jordan hosts approximately 635,324 refugees from Syria, which amounts to about 10% of the population

Iraq where 3.9 million people are already internally displaced hosts 245,022 refugees from Syria

Egypt hosts 117,658 refugees from Syria"

Hey EVERYBODY, this topic is all what actual economists, you know literal big E Economists, study; so, while actual economists can disagree about this topic, they disagree from a basis of understanding some things.

People who have not studied economics--for which the prerequisite is calculus and also statistics so if you haven't taken those, you haven't taken economics--...people who have not studied economics, micro and macro, should read about this topic with avid interest, but don't debate it, you just have no idea what you are talking about.

Not trying to be a jerk, just trying to say, this discussion is like reading a debate of computer programming by non programmers speculating from the point of view how they imagine it might work, like the 5 blind men and the elephant...

The basic laws of economics have not been overturned. People respond to incentives; there is no free lunch; dead weight losses; transfer payments; too many dollars chasing too few goods; growth in money supply; water seeks its own level, tides, all boats; labor theory of value; national income accounting; trickle down, it's really a thing... I could go on, but what is the point.

The US could simply let the Kurds in northern Syria wipe out ISIS. They have the track record as the world's best ground force against ISIS.

But Turkey, the ISIS-friendly NATO partner that's bombing its own cities, wants to obliterate them. It does everything it can to keep the Kurds from closing the Turkey-ISIS supply line. Turkey's government is such an embarrassment that "Obama now considers [Erdoğan] a failure and an authoritarian." (http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2016/04/the-obam...)

The US government can easily end ISIS. But they have other priorities and agendas too. They want certain outcomes.

From a young person's perspective who has seen older coworkers get divorced and observing remarkable fallout from divorce, why get married then? Please don't take the question as an insult, its a query from a young developer who scarcely has relationships longer than a year.

Bonsai AI | Berkeley, CA & Seattle, WA (Onsite only) | Full Time
We're an early stage startup creating developer tools to enable all software developers to build sophisticated AIs without having AI expertise. Here are the positions we're hiring for:

AI Lead/Manager: We need someone with a broad background in AI, through some combination of academic work and industry experience, to oversee the design and implementation of our learning systems. You should be experienced and comfortable with the many available AI methods of today (deep learning, statistical methods, probabilistic methods). You can also ship production-level code and have worked with at least one of the popular AI frameworks (Tensorflow, Theano, Caffe, etc). We'll consider both those that want to people-manage and those that just want to lead the technical work.

Lead IDE Developer: We're creating an IDE to support our new programming language and a number of visual debugging and authoring tools. The ideal candidate has most or all of the following: Strong C++ skills, some Javascript experience, experience building apps with Qt (any platform), experience building an IDE, interactive debugger, or other developer tools, and a passion for designing and building great user interfaces and experiences.

Interested in either of these positions, or perhaps are just enthusiastic about AI and want to be involved somehow? Send your resume and a brief note to jobs@bonsai.ai. For more info: http://bonsai.ai, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OwgBXwTnFgo
The part you are ignoring is that there are many potential "Digglers" out there. If Diggler hadn't done well, you wouldn't have heard about it. Buy maybe you would have heard about some other guy who predicted the races correctly based on what kind of treat his horse wanted to eat that day.
If they bought in, they don't have to. If they had got their act together 20... 40 years ago and got rid of some of the NIMBY stuff causing so many problems there, that would have helped too. If there were enough housing, no one would "have to" move away.

But no, in most western countries, there is no right to live in a city just because you currently happen to live there. If you want to live in an inclusive place with room for everyone, you have to ensure that the right policies are in place. If it's something you care about, you should get involved with these people: https://twitter.com/sfyimby
Integrate Jenkins with MSBuild and NuGet
Yes .... and I have for years, both locally hosted on services like Digital ocean.

Contrary to what others here have written, FBSD is no more 'fiddly' than any other server class OS. It is faster, smaller, and better conceived than linux - which is a achieving Microsoft-levels of accretion and cruft.

Moreover, FBSD is not constrained by the execrable GPL and its variants, uses a far more modern compiler chain, has better release control, etc.

I do use Linux as well - both professionally and for my desktops. Linux is a worthy replacement for the desktop, but Berserkely is an overall more solid server platform.
What are the best for-credit online CS classes?
I'm interested in taking some core CS classes online for university credit. I'd be prepared to spend up to $1000 for a great class that will be viewed well by potential employers (but Stanford's $6600 is too much). E.g. I see one can take math classes like Calc I & II at extension.berkeley.edu for $680; where is an analogous Data Structures and Algorithms for example?

Note that I want university credit, so I'm not currently considering things like the Princeton class offered via Coursera, for which no credit is available.
Mark Zuckerberg Is chatting with astronauts on the International Space Station
There are portions of Silicon Valley with quite a bit of history (relatively speaking, as the West coast is fairly recently developed compared to the East coast, much less Europe). For example, San Francisco. See who comes out of the woodwork if you try to replace a chunk of Victorian style homes (the "Painted Ladies"[1]). San Jose has its own historical areas[2], as does Palo Alto[3]. I'm not saying our veneration of our history through structures is necessarily a bad thing, just that if your new city improvement project conflicts with one, you'll likely have a fight on your hands.

Kash (YC S14) | withkash.com | Full Stack Engineer | ONSITE in San Francisco, CA / Waterloo, ON, Canada / Toronto, ON, Canada

We're on a mission to build a new payment network as an alternative to credit cards.

Why? Credit cards impose a hidden tax on everything. The profit margin of your average neighborhood store is under 2%. A typical grocery store’s operating margin is around 1.7%. On the other hand, the typical cost of processing all payments is about 2%. As Priceonomics puts it, "Credit card fees are 2% or more of nearly pure profit."

There has been many innovations built on top of the existing credit card network, but none of those fundamentally changes the equation. Kash is changing the equation.

With the former CEO of Visa leading our board, and all the momentum we're seeing, we're confident that a new network can be built. Come chat with us to learn more if you think this is a worthy cause.

We currently use: GCE/AWS, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Cassandra, Docker, Kubernetes,
Angular.js, React, Objective-C for iOS, Android
We're looking for engineers with a demonstrated ability to learn and past experience building both scalable and maintainable software.

To apply, please visit http://withkash.com/careers. If you’re interested in the Toronto location, please apply to the Waterloo job posting and let us know.

It's amazing the minute nooks and crannies of life that government is involved in these days. You can argue that the effects of this legislation are worth the costs, but you can't argue that there isn't also negative consequences of such legislation. And it's much more than economic. There's a slippery slope you go down, and if you don't realize until it's too late things can get real nasty.
