How a Danish Town Helped Young Muslims Turn Away from ISIS
I'd expand that to cultural preservation in general. The French like being French and living in a French country, with all that entails concerning values, music, food, and way of life. The Japanese like being Japanese and living in a Japanese country. Mass migration can change the character of a country. It's totally logical to want to preserve your culture and way of life.

If 100 million people from the Middle East moved into France (to use a hyperbolic thought experiment), it would cease to be a French country. And we don't need to use this thought experiment. You're kidding yourself if you think that mass migration from the Middle East and Northern Africa into France over the last few decades has been anything but an unmitigated disaster. There are plenty of great people from those countries, and their children, who have assimilated and contributed great things to French society. But the problems are so great that I think most French people would turn back the clock and undo the whole thing if they could.
This is exactly how it is though - now we have a "but he was a bad guy" narrative for the

For what it's worth "Upper middle class" is a pretty widely used classification. I couldn't give a technical definition and don't even know if one exists, but as someone a little younger it's always seemed like a semi-cohesive group. People who are able to attend private schools and $160/4 year college programs, whose parents can float them a little if needed, who have a certain range of hobbies (e.g. yoga, skiing), who wear a certain range of fashion brands, who typically live in certain neighborhoods of cities. Some of those properties on their own don't define the group, take it as a whole. It's basically where your family is doing well and set you up with a lot of opportunities, but you're not extremely rich and you still have to work. It's most people I went to university with (which is a competitive, expensive one), and it's most people I know paying market rate rent here in SF.
> That's not the case. That premise would only hold true in a bad simulation - ie one that ignored or removed thousands of factors. Back in actuality, those thousands of factors would still ensure drastic differences between countries. Equilibrium in regards to this premise is inherently impossible. Any amount of friction alone guarantees it, and there would be vast amounts of friction.

The conclusion that all countries with open borders would become exactly average is clearly wrong, but the principle that allowing unrestricted immigration will tend to move your country closer to the average still holds.

And is actually worse than that, because the people in an above average position within their own countries would have less incentive to emigrate. If you open your borders to countries with exactly the same population composition but your country has more economic mobility or better social assistance programs then those things will disproportionately attract economically weak immigrants.

This is highly confusing to political partisans because the two issues contradict party lines in the US. Democrats generally favor both reducing immigration restrictions and increasing social assistance and mobility, but the two policies don't mesh well.
The way you describe it, it sounds like you believe there are no negative consequences for anyone, anywhere, ever.
I hope you don't take this the wrong way, but showing me that the blog you're describing exists yet somehow doesn't have the thing you're trying to show me doesn't really fill me with surety.

The post itself is hardly a smoking gun, either. It's hard to tell whether a soft-SIM, as described in the 2010 blogpost, would be pro-consumer or pro-Big Whatever. In the post, Mr Wheeler characterizes it as "handset subsidy vs consumers' ability to switch cell providers at will". Is that the part that's supposed to dramatically reveal that he was on our side all along? My understanding of current 'soft-SIM' deployment is that it's basically only present in newer iPads and isn't really a soft-SIM.

Sorry, but I still see no proof that Wheeler was 'obviously' pro-consumer. For all that we love to bash reddit et al, I still think that if there was obvious proof that the pro-hivemind opinion was wrong, someone would post it and contrarians would get it to the top post. I presume you deleted the reddit account in question?
> So you prefer one written in ... C? Because C is secure by design? <rim shot>

So, if Javascript hate is "so 2010," is C hate all the fashion now? If you're going to get on somebody's case for trashing a programming language than you might as well practice what you preach.

C certainly isn't secure by design, but there are plenty of demonstrably secure projects developed in C and C++ (and it's not like Node is self-bootstrapped, either). To answer your question, yes, I would prefer one written in C. Any day of the week.

> Point is to use them to do other cool things client-side. It's a Really Big Toolbox. The CSS/HTML part can potentially provide interesting options as well.

Dragging along such a massive runtime environment is such a heavy cost for that, though. And, again...in a terminal? I'm not judging every since Electron app, right now, I'm just judging HyperTerm.

> The latter quote is from the comment I was replying to. It is not a "salient point," but simple JavaScript hate. His other points were that, in the past, he had written a JavaScript terminal as a school project that he ended up hating, it took him thousands of lines of code, and he'd done it before Node existed to provide the batteries. What salient points do you actually refer to?

Honestly? Parent didn't make any. I'm just tired of people defending programming languages like they're more than just tools. It's fine to hate tools. Obviously this person's JS hate is coming from an informed place, because they've written a fair chunk of it.

>However without colonization, Africa today would in large part still be in the iron age.

You know the people there are not a different species. Just like the people, whoever that is, that first came out of iron age, Africans would've came out of "iron age" too. Without the colonization, the world would've been better off. People at that time thought colonization as required or as an easy way to get access to more resources instead of advancing internally with their own limited resources. They couldn't care less if those Africans(or insert any other colonized place/people) lived or died. They were colonizing for the resources.
I don't buy into the idea that the way we parse the world is necessarily limited by the limits of our vocabulary - however the way we communicate and record information may be.

Even then, programming languages are able to communicate and parse information which one might define as 'beyond the limits of' our collective cultural lexicon and structural rules of communication, which (as far as I know as a layman) are generally linear and include undertones and idioms.

also, as long time fan of meditation, I think I am able to look at the world, turn off that internal voice and view things in a way that's less limited by language.

"ideally he / she would be sent somewhere else."

Where? Who would want them?

Some years ago, there was a judge in a Southern town who had the bright idea of giving their criminals a bus ticket to LA. One of the criminals was arrested in LA and told cops and prosecutors about this. LA authorities were annoyed, and there was some press coverage. Someone pointed out that LA could easily give bus tickets to a few hundred of their crooks and send them to the Southern town. The judge stopped sending people to LA.

This is just a massive overgeneralization about the viability of real estate as an investment vehicle, and it comes off as slightly moralistic.

I'll leave out the moralistic component. When it comes to value, some other considerations are the low interest rates we experience, the fixed 30-year loan, in the U.S. that is, and interest tax deductions. So one isn't pummeling 1M in investment that could otherwise go into a business. One is putting in 200k, even less with an FHA loan, and deducting the price of the loan.

Now we get more advanced. Buy a multi-family property, and you get rental income. This rental income is balanced against depreciation of the house, so your personal income bracket isn't affected. When you combine the tax credits, the low cost of loans, the increasing rents, the principal you're getting back, when the dust has settled you're light years ahead of those folks who rented and pumped their money into some seesaw investment vehicle like the stock market.

I pay out of pocket less than the price of a studio, and own a standalone house in one of the country's top three rental markets.

It gets better, because you can sell the property to purchase another, and defer all tax payments on the profit of the sale. 1031 exchange.

As someone else said, it's pointless to generalize nationally. We live in a big country, assuming you are US-based. I bet there's a similar dynamic in the UK or Canada, both of which have noises of a bubble.

That might be, but it might also be just how car carriers look like.

what does this mean? is there any context? Thanks!
Free trade (and free immigration, which is essentially the same) is undoubtedly good on the whole. However, the current anti-trade pandering from Trump / Sanders and the like may also be correct.

Expanded access to markets may be unequal. For example, if there was an untapped country that had a million unemployed meteorologists - signing a free-trade deal with that country would most likely be terrible for meteorologists in America - although all other Americans would be better off with improved weather forecasts.

Replace "meteorologists" with "factory laborer" and you can see why so many of the current anti-trade folks are upset with what they see happening. They aren't barbers or plumbers - they're factory workers. The barbers, plumbers and engineers get cheaper stuff (and are better off), but the factory workers get paid less.

"Remember, the goal is to cap emissions"

Is it? I would say the the goal is to reduce carbon usage to situations where the benefits outweight all (social and economic) costs. So, our goal shouldn't be to reduce emissions to some arbitrary level, but to reduce usage to the level where benefits=costs.

The name of the country is not nearly as important as its proximity to the US.

It is very effective writing.
Right. In Europe, it also often has to do with status. For example, you can make €25m and still not be accepted by the "upper class" (i.e. wealthy "old" nobility), because you are seen as not sophisticated enough. On the other hand, decent wealth builders (but not crazy rich) people can still be accepted in the upper class because they share certain values and habits.

A lot of old noblemen look down on the capitalists / nouveau riche. At the same time, the realise they need capitalists to help them generate decent yields on their inherited fortunes. It's an interesting world at the top. Some are accepted into the group, and others are not.

Our nine-point guide to spotting a dodgy statistic
You deserve treatment for any psychological stuff caused by your physical illness.

Some people with long term pain benefit from cognitive behaviour therapy. You might want to see a pain clinic to get best quality advice about pain, and about rehabilitation.

If you want to know what treatment you could expect from the English NHS you could enter the condition in the search here: https://www.nice.org.uk/

They tell you the evidence they've used to come to their decision. They sometimes give "Do NOT" advice, telling people to avoid some treatments.

Or you can try NHS Choices to get some general information. http://www.nhs.uk/pages/home.aspx

In general, getting medical advice from the Internet is probably a bad idea.

What you're doing is the global analogy of dragging up a black man's criminal record after he's been shot dead by a white police officer.

Crime is bad, war is bad. Sure.

But to bring it up in this way, as a way to say "see! it's not just us!" is just a distraction that has very little to do with the fact that a member of the armed police killed a man for no reason, or that the Europeans colonized the entire continent with disastrous consequences for the population.
> The flow of capital and education to poor countries would increase their productivity (and thus wages and standard of living) while the increased supply of labor decreases prices in rich countries, and the new equilibrium would be strictly better for both sides.

The fact that it isn't zero-sum doesn't mean that it's always strictly better for both sides. There are many policies that will give +4 to a foreign citizen at the cost of -2 to a US citizen, which is not zero sum but is still not to the advantage of the US.

Not an unexpected result, since economists are generally utilitarians more than nationalists and politicians the opposite.
A phone call with an intentionally annoying tone. It rings for an extended time, unlike a single notification sound you'd have for email or sms.

At my shops it's been common practice to use phone calls to escalate, so this works out for me. If your place doesn't/won't do the same, you may be able to use something like Twilio or a less developer-centric, more consumer-focused gateway to call you programmatically on receipt of an event.
Incredibly, there does not appear to be any way whatsoever to securely verify downloads from respected openSUSE.

That seems not only incredible, but plain false. OpenSUSE offers PGP-signed checksum files prominently with the images. It also provides the signing key's fingerprint over HTTPS.

When choosing the regular releases you also get some verification instructions. This is not true when picking the Tumbleweed rolling-release distribution. In either case, though, the checksum files are signed.
I think they're intimately related in this context and disagree that it's proximity is important beyond it's identification, which, as stated above, is obvious.
On one hand, note that holding REITs is pretty different than "buying property and sitting on it"; these companies charge rents to real businesses & apartment-dwellers. They will (on average) generate and distribute profits from that activity even if the underlying property value remains completely flat. I'm not sure how that's different from "investing in the real economy" -- the apartment-dwellers or office-dwellers are happy to hand some profits over to the landlords in exchange for being able to be in a place with access to good jobs/culture/etc, and for the flexibility of not being locked down to that property.

On the flip side, there is a "financial economy" side to it too. They're leveraged (as is an individual mortgaged homeowner). If property values do go up, and if interest rates do fall, then yeah, the REITs are going to be extra juiced -- this has happened over the time period you highlighted.

But not without risk, too. In 2007-2009, the maximum drawdown (peak to trough) in VNQ was -73%; that's a lot worse than the -55% for VTI.

To my knowledge inflammation comes from lack of water, bad food (red meat) and bad posture.

It fails to amaze me how much the govt. and financial sector are willing to subsidise the housing market. If you leave the morality clause aside, why exactly should the US Government create tax incentives, low interest mortgages and such for housing? It was precisely the morality of enabling Americans to own a house that these benefits are present in the first place, funneling so much financial resources into the housing market rather than other investments.

I do agree with what you say though. With all the incentives that are in place, we shouldn't overgeneralize since housing can be a good investment.

More people like you, increasing capacity, instead of price, are the solution. Be proud. You are the solution to high prices. I would call that 1031 exchange an unfair benefit to the already over benefitted by capital gains tax being half of income tax class though.

The world needs more houses with more people in them. That requires lower house prices, or richer people. I do not like the attitude home owners have that their future must be paid for by the pain of others not being able to afford homes. And that the profit they make on that low production asset subsidises their leisure lifestyle. Building is better than speculating, for speculating is 1 layer removed from production.
