The thing that pisses me off about HIPAA and startups is the cost of being HIPAA compliant! You must run on dedicated instances. So your AWS bill is minimal thousands of dollars and that's just the start!

Sure there are starts doing HIPAA compliant IaaS but Paying $99 for 1 GB container is still pricey.
Such a watershed moment. A few things strike me:

* A Republican just won without being very religious and being wishy-washy on abortion.

* The loser out-spent the winner by huge amounts. Does money really buy elections? Maybe, but not this one.

* The rich abandoned Republicans, but many poor and working-class abandoned Democrats. [1]

This is utter madness. If we're lucky, this wheels fall off this whole enterprise and these people are discredited before they do too much harm.

It's deeply frustrating to hear so much crap analysis of what's been going on. If we're really honest with ourselves about what's happening, we're seeing a massive vote for protectionism of a particular demographics that have long enjoyed it.

People talk a lot about the forgotten white working class voter. And while that's a real thing, that's only half the story. The Trump voters are on the whole wealthier than the Clinton voters. That means there are a whole bunch of people with real money who've decided they can stomach the open bigotry of Trump's campaign because they think ultimately his policies are what they want. That's why the incumbents of the GOP largely never fled his side, no matter how obscene his personal conduct.

To be really blunt, Trump's entire track record says "if you're white and wealthy, I've obviously got your back", and his words have said, "if you're white and struggling, it's brown people who stand in your way". In that way, he's managed to get an extremely energetic white vote.

This election will be forever remembered for just how lurid it has been. From the very beginning of the Republican primary, it's been Trump who continually lowered the bar. God help us all if we do in fact end up with literally the least qualified Commander in Chief of American history. Going to sleep now, deeply discouraged.
The word 'fascist' is not the same as 'Hitler'. They're not the same thing. Fascism is an ideology that mixes corporatism with authoritarianism.
From wikipedia:

"Fascists believe that liberal democracy is obsolete, and they regard the complete mobilization of society under a totalitarian one-party state as necessary to prepare a nation for armed conflict and to respond effectively to economic difficulties.[7] Such a state is led by a strong leader—such as a dictator and a martial government composed of the members of the governing fascist party—to forge national unity and maintain a stable and orderly society.[7] Fascism rejects assertions that violence is automatically negative in nature, and views political violence, war, and imperialism as means that can achieve national rejuvenation.[8][9][10][11] Fascists advocate a mixed economy, with the principal goal of achieving autarky through protectionist and interventionist economic policies.[12]"

Being a fascist doesn't mean there will automatically be warrant out for you, or that you have committed some sort of genocide.
I don't know why anyone would think he is foolish. Listening to his speech at the National Press Club a few days ago it's hard to find many things to disagree with https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ob-LJqPQEJ4
It's been basically a done deal for about two hours now. AP, CNN, NBC, etc. have all called different states at different times, but there's really no doubt about where the rest of this is going to fall.
Call Trump what you will, but he played the media like Hendrix. They took the troll-bait and reported every outrageous soundbite gleefully, all in pursuit of a few clicks and ad-bucks. Meanwhile, Trump gained more and more of a platform and eventually established a cult of personality.
House and Senate and the Supreme Court...
Especially when they're bigots.
The Optimates were members of the ruling class of ancient Rome. They were the aristocracy - old blue-blood families with seats in the Senate. The history gets a little muddy since there were politicians from that class who embraced populism, but Sulla wasn't one of them.
Well, we have Strache, Le Pen, Farage, Wilders, Orban, Petry,... And we sure aren't as economically depressed as rural USA. Worse - we have unstable times ahead and people will vote for these populists even more. And even worse - a climate change denier as POTUS exactly at the worst possible time.
Sure, it is a rich and developed country after all. It's not horrible. It's just not really special if you're looking out for your own quality of life as opposed to how prominent the country is.

This is doubly so if you don't associate with the stereotypical American lifestyle of working 50 hours a week, 10 days vacation per year, and sending out work emails while holding your newborn baby.

Listing specific things is pointless – all these ratings are online anyway, but just to name a few:

- fucked up health care system

- gun violence rate higher than in most third world countries

- homicide rate worse than any other developed country, and worse than countries like Niger, Laos, India, or Iran

- those best universities will put you in a $200K+ debt hole that you'll spend a lifetime getting out of, and the mediocre universities are not cheap either (compared to almost free education in many developed countries)
Ohio, Pennsylvania, etc. are traditionally Democratic states, but it's a region Trump spent a lot of time targeting with anti-globalist messages around the decline of domestic industry.

The predicted safe margin in the other direction, the narrow win, the demographic stats, the issues on the table ... it's all highly reminiscent of how I experienced Brexit.
The race isn't even close. Trump won. Don't blame Jeff Bezos for this.

It depends what Thiel's objectives are. If they are purely self serving, he might do very well out of this.
To be fair, he was consistently significantly less favorable towards Clinton than any of the other high profile models. He even took quite a bit of flak for this in the weekend leading up to the election, but he stood his ground. While he was ultimately wrong, he was closer than mostly anyone else running a serious model.
What happens when the value of equity grants plummets?
FoxNews announces Trump new president of the United States
TBH I don't think there was anything Clinton could've done to alter this election result, other than not being female and (possibly) not getting involved in so many scandals beforehand. This was a widespread popular-vote miss: Clinton lost across a large number of states (PA, WI, MI, FL, NC) that she had polled ahead in, and even in ones she carried (like NH, ME, or MN) the margin of victory was much less than expected. It seems like a large number of Americans just don't like the vision of America that Hillary Clinton represents.
I think it's relevant. I like browsing the Show HN section to see what kind of stuff people build, and I'm curious about the people building the stuff. I look at things differently when they are made by a high school student vs someone who has been working in the industry for a couple of years. For example, I wouldn't complain that there are lot of similar competing apps when it's clear that this is someone just trying to build their first app...
It's the economy, stupid.

Clinton losing in the midwest is what the polls missed. The analysis of why and how, that's probably going to be hot topic for a while.
Michigan and Wisconsin were thought to lean Clinton and went Trump.

Ohio and Pennsylvania were considered tossups.
So, just like Brexit then
This is reminiscent of the famous "Dewey Defeats Truman" headline.
I have to readjust my own mental model of what it means to be an American. It's not the end of the world, but shit, what happens to the Supreme Court will have implications for the next few decades.
I read this[1] a while ago, maybe that covers what I'm asking about. If you have anything to add I'd be curious to hear it.

There will be no mutual respect here; the schism that began with Reagan, and widened with W. just ripped wide open today. The only thing coming out of this is going to be deepening resentment, and incredible economic hardship.

Ironically, the people who are going to take it most directly in the tuckus, are the people who voted Trump.

Awh. They weren't bad.
The OQLF (aka "Quebec language police") is relatively in the Trump class.

Unless you're gay, a woman, or part of a minority. Then your situation is that the leader of the free world is at best openly dismissive of you, and at worst actively encourages hate towards you.

Did he find the homo-apes to be less reverted in Spain?
Moving from France to Belgium (in Wallonia where they speak Franch) is not a huge cultural or linguistic leap. As both countries are in the EU, it's very easy to emigrate; no visa needed. But as far as I know, there was no sudden emigration to Belgium after elections in France.
In 2012 Mitt Romney lost Ohio, Florida, Iowa, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, which Trump now won, some solidly, some barely.

With no major demographic shift there, seems also fair to assume a good portion of the voting-age population in those states saw no noticeable improvement in the past 4 years.
13 Stars Who Vowed to Leave America If Trump Wins
I don't care much for america. after all they are consenting adults who voted for the best candidate they had. I am more concerned about the consequences for the rest of the world.
What about for poor people?

Go USA. I've got to admit it, your insane failure of democracy literally Trumps ours.

A majority of something, but probably not the population:
http://www.nytimes.com/elections/forecast/president?action=c...
I'm mostly just curious. There is a lot written about immigration to the US but not too much about emigration from it. I agree that moving away doesn't really solve the problem and that despite our flaws I believe we have an advantage in many respects.

Democracy isn't perfect, and sometimes it means you lose. It means you need to talk to people who disagree with you and persuade them, and I think this cycle shows that the left hasn't been doing too well on that front.
> To be really blunt, Trump's entire track record says "if you're white and wealthy, I've obviously got your back", and his words have said, "if you're white and struggling, it's brown people who stand in your way". In that way, he's managed to get an extremely energetic white vote.

yeah and exactly because of this kind of insane, bogus "analysis" you lost.
When or if you find back the connection to reality, you will realize how Trump actually won. By talking about real issues that nobody else even dares to touch.
The rate of increase of health care costs has been significantly lower since Obamacare passed than it was before.
There are some important advances in today's world versus the 1920s.

For one, the average human is more easily connected to one another. Within the next hour I could order a crazy amount of raw materials from around the globe. Or donate it to feed a family.

Another is we're generally better educated, especially in the western countries. We teach the basics of relativity in public school, whereas it was still being hotly debated at the highest levels, barely within view of the general public.

Maybe this is way off, but the wave of "privatization" has seen quite a bit of financial power in the hands of staunch progressives. Control of the higher education, much of the modern economy. The urban areas are largely anti-Trump and make up the bulk of the population.

Sam Altman, Tim Cook, etc...you have the power here: Invest in technology to do as OP suggests... listen to and understand "these people", and help them feel whole again.

It looks as though we'll have little progressive voice in government. Trump White House, probably two Supreme picks, with control of both sides in Congress, and a hamstrung, red taped up the ass bureaucracy getting in the way of government workers doing legitimately beneficial work. Little representation of progressive ideals.

All the above said; This may be a bit reactionary, and I am a bit tipsy, but progressives largely control the modern economy and innovation pipeline. All those tech workers at Google, Apple, YC, financial workers. Left leaning types predominantly control urban government offices in these areas. The most progressive leaning states pay more in Federal dollars than they receive versus conservative states, and have healthier economies. There's a tremendous amount of power there. I hope it's wielded for the benefit of the many. But a coordinated rejection of too conservative an agenda could be called for.
Who knew that not paying any taxes, asking your "second amendment people" to finish off your opponent, and using your position of power and authority to sexually assault people could lead to becoming the most powerful person in the free world.

We live in the darkest of times.
"Fun" in the "emboldens Russian aggression safe in the knowledge the US won't back up NATO" sense? I think this is a complete disaster for world peace. I genuinely wouldn't be surprised to see Europe involved in a major war with Russia in the next 2 years. If that happens China will seize the moment too.

Also having someone who thinks climate change is a lie in the White House will affect everyone. He should ask the inhabitants of Delhi whether they think climate change is a lie [1].

He really did not have a handle on this election cycle at all.
The thing is, the actions of those pundits worked in Trump's favour. Clinton was seen as a political insider, any one-sided story could be seen by Trump supporters as the establishment trying to protect one of their own. I lost count of the number of YouTube videos with one-sided Trump bashing leaving people in the comments saying it made them more likely to vote for Trump.
Who wants to live in Waterloo? People who enjoy living in expensive apartments in SF probably wouldn't enjoy living in a city that small. They're willing to pay high rents for a reason.

Lol. A 1 in 4 chance of something is not lottery odds.

Still a fan, sorry.
Only a moron would believe such odds, especially after happened to Brexit (odds were the same on the night before the result).
The AP's feed isn't free (please remember to pay journalists). News orgs like the NYT, NPR and others pay the AP a decent amount of money to manually go out and collect the results.

The AP has writeups of their process too:

Depends on what you're looking for. Keep in mind that the OP came to Elm with a Haskell mindset. Elm is simpler than Haskell (yes, at the cost of some boilerplate).

If you program in JavaScript and you want a language with no runtime exceptions, go for Elm. If you want type classes, go for PureScript.
Globalization isn't the problem. Computerization is.

Other countries are not taking "our" jobs. We simply don't need those jobs anymore. Taxes on foreign labor will only do one thing: subsidize robots.

We're going to spend billions of dollars on a big wall, and I guarantee you we're not going to have a lot more jobs after that. (The wall itself is a pretty big project though.)

The only pleasure I'm going to take in this mess, is that people who think like you are representative of the population who will be crushed under Trump and the GOP congresses' boots. You think it's bad now, wait until you see what's coming.
What about the language barrier? Would English be enough?
Citizens United.
It's even more pragmatic than that: regardless of how Republicans act, if your strategy is a losing one you might want to think twice about it.

Clinton largely campaigned on shame and fear, and the midwest felt too left behind to care about that.
I'm really thinking to upgrade to latest good MBP - the 2015 model.
Yeah, democracy seemed to work OK. The average american wants it to be illegal to not be a God-loving hetereosexual white man. And they elected someone who will make sure that laws get passed to move the country in that direction.

The problem in this case is that that's terrible.
If you're in China, you might want to use Shadowsocks. The server is easy to set up on any VPS (no need for TUN/TAP), and there are clients for Android (Shadowsocks), iOS9+ (Potatso), linux and routers.

I've found plain OpenVPN over TCP or UDP stopped working a few years ago (even using remote-random to shuffle ports). PPTP mostly still works.

I haven't used other VPN protocols for a long while, and don't use commercial VPN providers, but occasionally hear from friends that they have temporarily issues (for hours or days, but not weeks).
I do not have any country. Nothing belongs to me.

The country where I live has been built by lots of people, not least immigrants.
What do you mean by "same kind of system"?
A lot of podcast consumption is while driving, where operating the phone is dangerous and illegal. I would especially like an option to skip advertising when I'm listening to two episodes from the same podcast and the closing ads from one episode are the same as the opening ads in the next episode.

Seeing that bozo at the podium as president-elect, I really feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone.
Grew up in the US. I'm a minority. I think this is the only time in my life I've ever felt like I didn't belong in America.

Tonight a large portion of the country confirmed that the US is for whites. That it's not a melting pot. This demographic has been angry for a generation because they've felt like their culture, their socio-economic status and way of life is slipping away and this election (after 8 years of a black president), the line in the sand would be drawn. The numbers don't show any division in voting based on class, but an entire chunk of whites (women, men, making under or over 100k+ a year, college education or not), all voting for Donald Trump.

I don't know what the future looks like now for America.
I would hope people on this board would understand statistics. Silver gave Trump about a 1/3 chance of winning, and he said the outcomes could run from a Clinton blowout to a narrow Trump victory, which is what happened.

If people were interpreting his "33%" as "0%", despite all his warnings and explanations about what was possible, that's their problem, not Silver's.
Comedians appear to have been more perceptive about Trump's appeal and Clinton's weaknesses than the media: Scott Adams and Dave Chappelle both made some salient pints this cycle. Mainstream media:0; reclusive comics:2.
> There is no genuine leftist alternative. It's a choice between center-right "left" that's sold out to the establishment and the far right.

Lol, true that.

One thing I'd like to point out is that NATO and UN existed for decades before the massive immigration flow started.
Florida and North Carolina were considered competitive or "tossup" states, while several of the upper Midwestern states were considered fairly safe Democrat territories, probably because they were historically dominated by unionized manufacturing workers. That latter assumption has proved to be very unsafe, and it's become apparent that many of those formerly-reliable Democrat voters have switched sides, at least for this election.
America, you're fucked!
Speaking of tech bubble, just a few weeks ago people wanted to purge Thiel for supporting Trump.
Model X Wins the Golden Steering Wheel
Jeez, everybody is all bent out of shape on this. The Republican establishment hate Trump nearly as much as they hate Clinton so with Republicans controlling The House and The Senate how much "damage" is President Trump going to be able to do.

The really interesting part of all this was reading Scott Adams blog who proposed the idea that Trump is a master persuader (probably this is just a fancy name for populist). He has been blogging about persuasion techniques and about cognitive biases and how humans are irrational creatures 90% of the time and are open to persuasion techniques.

This seems to offend everybodies sensibilities but for me it's been fascinating and a real eye-opener. The reaction (bias?) in the media has been particularly interesting and has forever changed my world view.

If you have the time it's probably worth reading the posts for the past year or so, http://blog.dilbert.com/ It won't be so interesting now that we know the result but the ideas and methods of persuasion he talks about will shape the future for a long time to come.

The cognitive dissonance being shown by the media is particularly funny. It's amazing that they really don't understand that a large percentage of the population voted for Trump because he probably represents for them a reasonable hope for change. I'm waiting for somebody to suggest that nobody actually voted for him and instead he rigged the election all by himself.
