This is where Pythonistas rely on the idea that "we're all consenting adults here". It's very useful to let objects assert that they have an arbitrary, immutable hash value. I've used that ability in Python and it solved problems that would have been very challenging otherwise. Of course, that ability also leads to undocumented behavior if hash values change. Python coders expect dicts to behave in undocumented ways when object hashes change, but it would be a bug if that led to a segfault or a C assertion failure.

To answer my own question, after having combed through the above careers pages:

Facebook:

- Canada: Nothing.

- Europe: London only.

- South America: Nothing.

- APAC: Nothing listed, though I'm pretty sure they have an engineering office in Hyderabad.

Google:

- North America: Waterloo only ("More than 350 engineers expected").

- Europe: London (biggest), Zurich, Warsaw.

- South America: Nothing.

- APAC: Hyderabad, Sydney, Tokyo.
M / Mumps is a terrible language / datastore to deal with however.
It should have. And it would have if he belonged to the party that contains a majority portion of anti-war/pacifist types. Can't sell out the major beliefs of your base and expect them to show up at the polls.
Bush wasn't elected by progressives. Being pro-war isn't going to earn you progressive votes. The progressives sat out this election because Hillary wasn't progressive enough. There were 4M fewer votes cast this year than in 2008.
She doesn't. Her mistake, and the mistake of everyone around her, including the media which defended and parroted everything she said was to believe they would fool people into thinking she is genuine.

A lot of people who voted for her are Democrats -- people she thought she had already in her pockets.

Trump wasn't a top candidate, he wasn't the popular one, has said stupid stuff, and yet people disliked Hillary so much, they still voted for him.

I looked through some emails, it was entertaining (even though CNN said it is illegal to look through them and only media was special and had to interpret them for us). There was very little in those emails of "Hey how does this help ordinary people, let's do something for them" or "You know, we should just tell the truth, let's not really spin this at all".

It is all about how do fool this block "Women, ok, she is a woman, that's easy". Black voters, those are easy... what should we do for them? Organized a rap concert, of course. Because that's not condescending... Let's call Jay-z so he can drop a few N-bombs at them, I hear they like that. She is like the awkward rich person trying to find common ground with peasant that she usually would never associates with and it just looks so fake and stupid... and now more people can see that.
Bill Maher is no genius, but even before the election he had already identified this lack of credibility, the umpteenth time some random Republican is deemed beyond the pale:

How would you verify the email addresses in the first place?
Does the crapware really pay more than the cost of a Windows EOM license?

How does that work economically? Because not everybody buys the crapware license later (and they normally cost less than Windows), and mass stealing of data is not very lucrative.
Here's a few details:

* You can still be fired from your job for marijuana use.

* You could still have your children taken from you for marijuana use.

* The prop allows local jurisdictions to set their own rules, so your city/county may still ban it.

With this prop as a foundation, Californians can choose to continue to develop cannabis law in different directions from here.
If we simply voted on every issue at hand it would quickly devolve into emotional appeals for everything

This brings to mind California and San Francisco's penchant for referendums.
For your body, you are correct. But for the right side of your body, it is. My point is that US elections and politics are in the context of the US, not the world.
I want to listen to your concerns. So you tell me: Affordable healthcare is the deciding factor. I look to the facts and say "No, that doesn't make sense. That can't be it. What are you not telling me?"

You assume that I assume that his "True feelings" are racist.

We could get in to why he considers a third term of Obama's policies to be bad. A blanket statement of "Everything Obama did is terrible forever" also doesn't help describe your brother's true feelings.

On the issue of trust, the choice between "Career Politician" and "80's Businessman" is kind of a toss up. So again, we would need to go in to detail.

I really don't think there has been 'plenty of time' to fix the Affordable Care Act. It was enacted in 2010, majorly phased in in 2014, and will continue to phase in in 2020. So, the magnitude and reach of this is going to take some serious time come to grips with in order to find and fix the problems.

Obviously he is innocent until proven guilty. But an unfounded rejection of the candidate who's message is based on inclusiveness looks a lot like evidence that he is guilty.

So, how do we get the discussion of whether his objections are unfounded?
On the bright side, does this mean the election wasn't rigged? What will Alex Jones think now that Trump is in power? Will there be no more school shootings because Obama/Hillary and the federal government are no longer trying to take our guns away? Will ISIS no longer attack the US because Trump is being "tough" on them and the president is no longer refusing to say the words "radical islamic terrorism"?

So many intriguing questions posed by the victory of someone who, by many appearences, was happy to lose but rile up a big audience along the way.
This is what scares the Europeans amongst us about the US.

By European standards, most of the European centre-right is fine with most of what Bernie supports...

And then we wake up to Trump.
That's just a self-important way to sound superior. You shouldn't look down on people for actually listening to what someone says.

Nobody is surprised, or incapable of understanding that. The touchbar is a mostly a gimmick. Its a tiny screen that you have to poke at while your finger obscures the display. However, I'd say its still worth it for the touch ID alone - assuming people figure out a way to link it to online logins.

> Apple doesn't have to listen to what the developers want--they don't need your business anymore.

I'd say they already got their money. Instead of repeat business, they're looking for new ppl to keep buying their products.
Never in SF. A friend worked for a local company that got bought up by an east coast corporation. The new HR sent out an email that the new owner required drug testing. The local group announced, collectively, that they would not be participating. "But that's our policy!" "We'll all quit and have new jobs by the end of the day." "But that's our policy!" "Not anymore."

The local group won out, and the parent corp abandoned the policy of testing their California employees.
Why not suggest a tent? A hostel isn't the same as renting an apartment. I for example have little kids so renting a hostel isn't as efficient as an option.
It's not really hard. Do you remember the last 4 consecutives years where USA was in peace?
Normally, I'd agree.

But to not put a polarizing, inexperienced politician like Trump away easily is what makes the commentators (and me) think there are larger trends at work.

She had all the cards.
It was a design trade off Apple made. They could sacrifice power efficiency for additional memory (LPDDR4 on the CPU is limited to 16 GB, DDR4 can go up to 32 GB).

I'm pretty confident if Intel's CPU supported more RAM they would of made it a configurable option. Apple still has configurable graphics cards, hard disk sizes and CPU speeds. RAM could of easily been another configuration they could of offered.

Like I said previously, the MacBook Pro is a mobile device so making a trade off for power efficiency makes perfect sense to me.
> do like the Republicans have been doing the last 8 years and do my outmost to make the Trump Presidency be a major failure.

I think I'd modify that just a little. Our too-few representatives in Congress should do everything to thwart the Trump agenda, but only because that agenda is itself a failure. By opposing it, we make America a success. Very different than what the Republicans have been doing.
I totally agree. I think it's short-sighted of them.

I'm not even sure whether I want to be right or wrong! Their approach pisses me off, but it's fairly likely I'll just grumble and make the best of it like Mac users always have.

They do have a history of massive success with "disappointing" products.
> then I'd go back to voting normally.

Maybe I'm having a hard time understanding this or maybe you haven't admitted it. What is this "voting normally" all about? It's clear that you don't give a damn for social pressures causing you to vote and think a certain way (normally?), because that's bit you bad. It appears that you've moved elsewhere to your own new normal (FN). If they changed and you went back, would it really be back to the same?
Honestly. This already has been going on in CA. The medical marijuana cards are a total joke. In SF it takes ~15 minutes to get one if you are physically at a clinic. marijuana has already been sold, regulated, and industrialized in CA.

This law was really about stopping the joke about the cards and getting more tax revenue.

The fact is Hillary is part of the corrupt machine, part of the problem. And Trump is ego centric lunatic who can not be trusted with our kids future.

America should have voted against all of them and ask for better candidates. But that would never happen.

We obviously won't know until all the data is in, but looking at the county by county results seems to suggest that rural voters (who are predominantly working class whites) in swing states turned out for Trump in much greater numbers than anyone anticipated. Combine that with the fact that Clinton often underperformed or outright lost some number of counties in these states that Obama carried in 2012, and a picture starts to emerge. This was especially prevalent in Michigan and Wisconsin where she won in the cities and democratic strongholds but lost spectacularly outside of them.
Nothing. You can't brick the OS if you don't have one! /s
Two points come to mind here, wrt the markets.

1) All the volatility happened in the after hours. If you just ignored the markets when they were closed, today you are pleasantly surprised, assuming you are the typical long only investor. Don't watch the markets, especially in the after hours.

Heck don't watch them on a day to day basis unless its in your job description. Life is stressful enough that you don't need to watch what your google/amazon/etc RSU's will be worth on a daily basis.

2) There is an order type called stop loss. These were useful in the 90's but haven't really had a good use since about 2005.

They allow a user to "lock in gains" or halt losses by being an order that is triggered if the markets hit a certain level. Essentially the order isn't live until its limit is crossed and then the order becomes valid.

Unfortunately if markets move alot you can get your order hit to close our your position during a momentary drop or flash crash.

Nowadays with market's more likely to have short term volatility stop loss orders aren't really an order type that anyone should use, ever.

The NYSE and Nasdaq are doing away with these orders but alot of regular investors with self directed accounts have been brought up thinking that using a stop loss order is a good idea.

it never is...ever.

You're assuming Airbnb owners are all not 'legal.' I have a place in Provence that has three apartments we list in AirBnB and booking.com, etc. We pay tourist taxes and taxes on the business income. It's not fair or even accurate to assume that AirBnB listings are less legitimate than "Lease companies."

AirBnB is a distribution channel, not a business model.

So advertise an /entry level/ job and disclose the range of pay you're willing to negotiate within as part of it's description.
You keep adding caveats and provisos.

Fact is that Hillary is a well thought of Yale law grad, partner, Walmart board member, First Lady, Senator and Secretary of State.

The only thing that will beat that is a gutter campaign.
AS others have pointed out I'm not as worried about Trump as I am Pence. He seems to definitely fit the culture warrior mold and on the very conservative side.
Yes, you're right on all counts. For some reason I'm not thinking clearly this morning. Can't imagine why.

This is a point of dispute. When does it become a person?

On the contrary, FiveThirtyEight came off looking pretty good this year. Where other poll aggregators where giving Clinton very high chances, their models continued to maintain that Trump had something like a 1/3 chance. They also correctly identified the level of polling uncertainty in the rust belt, and how tight the race was in Florida (a state which continues to be the most important swing). There is this ongoing narrative that the polling wrong, when actually the results fit neatly into the level or uncertainty that the polls were suggesting. The same narrative had taken hold about Brexit polling, which is also wrong - the polls in the UK correctly indicated a close race.
Agreed that it's about priorities. I'm from a poor state that went to Trump in a landslide. I personally know many people who voted for him. Most were somewhat embarrassed by it. They were ones who lied to or ignored pollsters, who wavered until the last moment. They found Trump despicable, or at least not worthy of the presidency. To understand why they would vote for him anyway, I think about how my vote for Clinton was not an endorsement of her history of warmongering, her complicity with the evils of Wall Street, her failure to advocate strong enough solutions to certain social problems until pushed by Sanders...

(what follows isn't a disagreement with the above posters, just a remark for context)

I vehemently disagree with their reasons (such as they are) for voting for Trump, but reducing the explanation of their behavior to bigotry---the easiest, most accessible, most self-affirming, and most totalizing explanation available to isolated liberals---misplaces the real problems and thus opens to misguided solutions. Yes, the Trump supporters who make the news are terrible people, and there are many of them. But they aren't over half the country. Explaining Trump's success -primarily- in this way is a failure of empathy on the part of liberals, a failure to understand the majority of the country as decent, caring human beings just like you and I who have, in fact, gotten shafted. Almost all economic recovery the past few years has gone to major cities and life for rural communities is only getting worse. We all know here that Clinton had proposals for addressing this (a 500 billion injection into infrastructure for example), but, for better or for worse---okay, for worse---Trump is who connected on this sentiment.

Everyone knows Trump is a wild card---to put it kindly---who has no concrete policies, but it's worth remembering that the main focus of his victory speech last night was promising to bring back the New Deal, for a "socialist" program of government supported work, to distribute jobs across the whole country by fiat. Whether he will make good on his word and can then force it through the Republican establishment in Congress and whether it will then work all remains to be seen.
Apple would do well to ignore the immediate success / failure of the macbook pro line. When your ecosystem reaches a tipping point there is a lag before the inadequacy of your product starts showing up in the bottomline in terms of units sold. Think of Microsoft in the early 2000s, by every financial metric they were delivering, but somewhere a crowd of silent power users muttering under their breath was growing.

A lot of people like to talk about his race, but I don't think it really mattered a lot. Obama won, not because he was black and people wanted to vote for that. Obama won because we had just had 8 years of Bush, the economy was in the tank, and he was young and charismatic.

The democratic nominee always had an uphill battle against a base of R's motivated for "Change", for the same reason that the party in power tends to fall behind during the midterms.

Didn't Hillary actually actually win more votes by number but the constituencies that Trump won were more heavily weighted, or something like that?

Because, for whatever reason, he likes owning a house.

Which is doublespeak for him feeling entitled to live in a huge and inefficient property for no reason other than him liking it.

She definitely attacks Trump. She also calls for:

* investing in infrastructure
* solar energy
* expanding broadband access
* more technical education, with the strong implication that there are other reasonable paths beside the elite four year college path
* moratorium on student debt
* public health funding

It's not accurate to say she didn't talk about why she should be president.
No? Maturity is about what you DO, not what you feel.
I wouldn't worry about it. Threatening to move to Canada after a political loss is a time-honored American tradition, and not one which produces much in the way of concrete results.

The results are showing that Hillary lost, at least in large part, due to lower voter turnout, especially among liberal-leaning populations

I can't help but think of the similarity to the 2012 election where rank-and-file middle-class conservative voters were being asked to support a Republican candidate who built his fortune firing Americans and off-shoring their jobs. They didn't vote for Obama, but they sure didn't vote for Romney either.
I don't think you understand how ego works. He wants to be more than just president, he wants to be a great president, that's in his nature. I truly believe he'll do what it takes to make himself into a great president. Do you think he wants to be remembered more as a George W. Bush or a Ronald Reagan?

I'm about as worried about a Trump presidency as I am worried that I'll remember how to breath at night.

Human Nature says he'll strive to be the best and I have faith in that.
