Again, Republicans did this. Don't blame this on Hillary (hint: she won the popular vote). Don't blame this on Democrats. Accept responsibility.

As for likable, Hillary has been the most admired woman in America, 14 years straight. Trump ran the most negative fact free campaign ever to overcome her likability.
What does any of this mean?

Trump is labeled racist, sexist and misogynistic because of his words and actions. As are most people.

And lots of people saw a Trump presidency as a possibility, like, everyone paying attention to the fact that there was a Republican presidential runner, and that person was Trump.
Those factory jobs are not coming back. The wall will not get built and it would not even work. What we will have is some NYC cronyism and wealth inequality increases. We may even have a recession if they decided to touch any trade agreement or increase tariffs ( based on debt load private and public institutions have). Whomever inherited the white house was going to have a bad time, this will just have to go on Trumps shoulders. :) 2018 you'll see a democrat majority in Congress.
Legal work visas don't address the trade angle. It's unclear to me how Trump as president will affect both our global suppliers and our global customers, particularly the trade across borders.

It may end up being nothing, but to me it is an uncertainy. Businesses generally don't like uncertainty.

Plus, if we took Trump's primary bluster 100% literally (that "ban all the Muslims" talk), no one from our Malaysia plant who is Islam could visit corporate headquarters for any reason, work visa or not.

Such of course could end up being complete bluster, it probably is to be honest. Again, though, there's the uncertainty.
Under many of ACA policies, you would still end up paying that amount, because they have ridiculously high deductibles. So if you are a relatively healthy person that does not regularly go to the doctors to get that chewed up earlier, you are still going to be left holding the bag for non-catastrophic, but expensive services.

Are you moving that dev image through the lower environments, or the prod one?

If it's the prod one, I think your pattern is fine. If it's the dev one I would feel like you're opening yourself up to potential issues by confirming things on a different binary than you are publishing to the real world

What do you actually do with that dev image?
Trump talks about it but mr Clinton actually fucks them. Thnx wikileaks.
Ah yes I think you're right.
I'd argue he's none of those things.
However, you can either
1) Exclude the first ~$100k from your US taxes altogether, or
2) Receive a credit for taxes paid to the other jurisdiction.

Most places, particularly those where you'd earn a high salary, have higher tax rates (particularly if taxes cover what would be health insurance in the US), so the credit often completely cancels your US taxes.

In many places with lower taxes, it's fairly difficult to earn $100K to begin with, so you're covered there too.

The two situations which are tricky are
1) Earning a lot in a low-tax location (maybe oil workers?)
2) Having income from a mix of US and non-US sources (renting out your American apartment?) since your US income gets "bumped up" to the tax bracket associated with your worldwide income.
That the situation was better than when I was off the meds.

On the meds I was able to concentrate well enough to hold down a job. Concentration issues at work had been the primary reason I got treatment in the first place. And, like I said, I bought into that logic for a while. It was only once I realized that a full-blown meltdown would have been better than coasting through life with no enjoyment whatsoever that I felt comfortable discontinuing medication and trying to figure out another path.

> In my opinion Australia is one of the most monocultural countries in the world

That seems to me to be a rather odd statement. Australia today (and since the 1970s) has a large and ethnically diverse immigration intake. Over the last five years, the top five immigration source countries (in order) are India, China, UK, Philippines, South Africa [1]. In 2015, 28.2% of Australia's population was born overseas, compared to only 13.7% of the US population – per capita Australia has a significantly higher immigration rate than the US. If you are looking for a country deserving the title of "most monocultural", a country such as Japan is far more fitting of that title than Australia.

[1] https://www.dss.gov.au/sites/default/files/documents/05_2015...

> It is a monoculture because they basically exterminated natives like they were bunnies in order for some guys to take all the territory to themselves.

As regrettable as it was, I don't think what happened to indigenous Australians was hugely different from what happened to the indigenous populations of the US and Canada. And, just like the US and Canada, the question of contemporary ethnic/racial diversity is in numerical terms far more determined by the diversity of immigration source countries (both contemporary and historical) than by the surviving indigenous population.

> There is only one culture in Australia precisely because all the minorities are not significant.

Around 12% of Australia's population has (South/East/Central/Southeast) Asian ancestry. The Asian minority is concentrated in the major cities, so if you live in a major city (but especially Sydney and Melbourne) it is higher than 12%. And, the European-descended population exhibits a mix of ethnicities too – while about 45% of the population report British or Irish ancestry, 4.6% report Italian and 4.5% German. So "all the minorities are not significant" is a very odd (and quite possibly offensive) thing to say.

> What makes Australia a great place to life is having a continent almost as big as the USA,with comparable natural resources, but with less than 13 times less population.

The US has far more water than Australia, which is part of why it has 13 times the population. So I'd question how true "comparable natural resources" really is.

If you're a software engineer working in Canada, you can get a 50% pay bump just by crossing the border.

My recommendation is get a remote job for a smaller company that will pay you in US dollars. After converting to Canadian dollars you'll be about 30% ahead of your Canadian peers but without having to pay Silicon Valley living costs or immigrate into a country crazy enough to elect Trump. If you can live away from Vancouver and Toronto you can really make that stretch.
I'm staying. Unless being in the US becomes presently dangerous to me or my family, I'm here. This is my country and I'm going to fight for it and I'm going to fight especially for the people (like my foreign-born, non-white wife, and like many friends who are black, Latino, or Muslim) who need someone to fight for them more than ever.

Fuck Thiel, fuck Y Combinator, fuck racism and sexism and fuck calling Clinton "the lesser of two evils" because people can't differentiate between a security violation [1] and a 40-year career of housing discrimination, fraud, misogyny, tax evasion, and brazen narcissism. And especially fuck the anti-intellectualism that has taken over not just corporate life and the software industry, but now political life wholesale.

I'd skip most of the whines and instead attempt to give a proper advice on nabbing a girlfriend:

- get a new shirt that fits you well

- go out, some bar would do

- spot a girl that you actually like, don't be shy. Look her in the eyes

- don't talk about politics and concentrate on her. Compliments are welcome, especially if not phony

- be ready for a normal debugging session of trial&error, plus starting over and rethinking your approach

- you don't need "luck", persistence would do

Other options: some of the east EU countries have higher proportions of young(er) women than men, having French accent would be extra bonus too.

Show HN: Mest – Place to talk with those you disagree with
It didn't surprise me. You have to look through the reality distortion field of the media and established politicians, because that only represents the views of a tiny and intellectually very non-diverse group of people. Consider the mismatch between what the media was reporting, and the undeniable fact that Trump's rallies attracted a far greater number of people than Clinton's. You also can't rely on the polls when you have a candidate whose voters are underrepresented in those polls because they've never voted before. Many polls sampled people as if this was Obama instead of Clinton. It's was clear that the number previous non-voters who would actually go out to vote for Clinton would be lower than for Obama, whereas from Trump it's the opposite.
Hmm, but explanation is simple - protest votes - not "people are stupid and times are strange". Same thing happened at Brexit. These protest votes aren't act of stupidity, since these people are isolated from the political discourse, they know that either option won't change their well-being or at least they feel that after the protest votes they will be heard and someone will listen. If not Trump, then some new face in the political landscape 4 years later.

I can't speak for it being immoral, but basically, using rude and offensive language tends to undermine rational discourse. If your purpose is get at the truth, then it is prudent to avoid such language.

However, a lot of writing (academic, journalistic, what have you) has "getting at the truth" as only one of its goals among many, including "expressing my feelings," "attacking someone else," "playing with poetic language," "sounding smart," etc.

What does "socially conservative" mean in 2016 if not racist/sexist/homophobic? One of Trump's slogans was "Take America back"; that's not particularly subtle as to from who.

The line gets a bit muddier on the fiscal side. If you're all for cutting programs that disproportionately support the poor and the poor happen to be disproportionately minority is there a racial component? That's worth being aware of.

I think it's about 400 years late to be asking if Muslims are a good fit for US society. Some estimates put the first Muslim in America on the Mayflower, others say 17th century slavery. Either way, Muslims have been in America for a long, long time.
I'm actually with you as far as the missing empathy and a lack of will to even listen is concerned, but I must say I too find the bit about the girl friend odd and I think it distracts from the (IMHO) good points you made. Look at it this way: This is an "outlier" statement among everything you said, so a reader's brain is going to pay more attention to it then to the rest.

Here is what you could have said (the very short version):

You could have made a good point that part of the problem of getting a girl friend is the freakin' amount of uncertainty in our lives. You can't be sure where you live and where you get an income from. That is a big problem for stable relationships.

After reading more of your comments I'm not sure if you actually meant it literally though, meaning your own personal issues instead of the wider political picture, which I would not want to comment on.
Hi everyone,

Recently, given the results of the election and the divisiveness that's been revealed because of it, it seems like the country isn't talking to one another anymore. We're afraid of one another and the polices the other political party will put in place. A lot of this, I think, has to deal with the lack of communication between actual human beings that lie on both sides of the isle. I made this app, Mest, to try and get people who hold different opinions talking to one another. We just have to start doing something to deal with the ever increasing division in the U.S.
> People who voted for Trump clearly liked his bombastic asshole style

Not necessarily. All of the Trump voters I know (in the low double digits) are either single-issue voters on abortion, but who hate Trump- or they are single-issue voters on obamacare, angry because their premiums shot up, but who hate Trump.

Never underestimate peoples' desire to vote based on feelings instead of the big picture.
The total number. We actually stop rendering comments past a certain amount of nesting; ever see a 'more' link where 'reply' would normally be? That's what that is.
I'd argue you are clueless. Trump has been sued several times for the discrimination against black people, he fired black people from his casinos and moved them to the back, he INSISTS TO THIS DAY that the Central Park Five are guilty despite DNA evidence, he jokes and also brags about literally molesting women.

People like you disgust me. Stop acting like his words and actions don't matter.
This is the crux of why Trump's pandering to them was total bullshit. He can't do anything to help them because the jobs that left aren't coming back. In four years they will be in the same position they are now but they wont have a black man or a Democrat to blame for it and so they wont be quite as bitter about it.
Regardless, nostrademons' point still stands. Over 50% of US farm workers are undocumented immigrants[1], and 1 in 10 farm workers in California are undocumented migrant workers[2]. That's a very sizable chunk of the labor pool.

She's a woman, and they think she is nasty. What does that have to do with her being a woman? Plenty of anti-Trump people have called him a nasty, horrible man. That doesn't make it a sexist statement, as much as the Clinton campaign and supporters have tried to make it so. (And I say this as someone who voted for Clinton.)
Yes, of course they do profit from escalating every piece of information. But in terms of "tightness" it was a different picture: almost every poll saw Clinton decisivly winning. There was active speculation about how huge the republican wound-licking would be because of the gigantic margins by which Clinton should have won.
A Sliver of Hope for People Scared of Trump
I would like to see you try.

And I mean that with no sarcasm. I would genuinely like to see you make the case that he is not racist, sexist and/or misogynistic.
But one of the main "in-groups" of the Trump supporter base were the working class. In its current form "diversity" is nothing more than a weapon for classism.

We are completely fine understanding root causes and bias which may underlie racial or gender based observations, but conveniently turn a blind eye to well-studied drivers for phenomena like nativism.

A lot of the current form of diversity against the disenfranchised "in-group" amounts to "you're f'd for being poor and FU again for being unhappy about being poor".
That's a red herring. The white working poor voted overwhelmingly for Trump.
A last minute, failed attempt to do something a few months before a referendum that they comfortably and smugly assumed they would win easily. No plan was made because the people in a position to make one didn't want to and assumed victory.

All this after AFAICT two decades of ignoring or belittling people for their deeply held views.

That doesn't really cut it and so we get the result we got.

Personally I neither think the country is in chaos nor do I believe that a vote for Brexit is a mark of idiocy. And even if I did I would try to recognise that I share a country with such folk and have a duty to take their views into account. The catastophising and continued moralistic judgements are another symptom of this poisonous thought pattern.

Brexit was the breakpoint, but the preceding decades of smug politics are what got us there.
> those laws should be upheld, no?

OK, when you catch them, write them a ticket and make them show up with their Mexican ID and fill out the paperwork to be documented again. It's false to conclude that deportation is the only possible redress. There's no reason to turn one person's or a whole family's life upside down for a victimless crime of not filling out a paper form that takes 7 years to complete. The RIAA tried this with suing MP3 purveyors in the 00's, once an efficient legal market existed infringement plummeted.
It's a complex issue. Anecdotally some Obama voters broke for Trump, so it's hard to see them being 'racist'. But people like to discount the hurt in the working class and are happy to label them racist --just because this time they didn't agree with you.

My thoughts on some of it is that while the white working class (as well as the black working class) are happy to see America help others out, internationally, domestically; they are not happy to see America help others out but at the same time ignore them and belittle them. That can be in trade deals, acquiescing to illegal immigrants, talking down to them, etc. There are likely a sprinkling of racists on the Trump side, but I dare say, there is the same likelihood of reverse racists on the Clinton side ['white people are the devil'].
Sure! I can proudly say I voted for Donald J Trump.
