Awesome. After hearing for months about how voter fraud was a completely negligible concern, and how the Republicans were over blowing the problem because they're a bunch of reticent KKK sympathizers consolidating the white vote...some Democrats file a voting fraud case.

I'd be uncomfortable with erasing the entire cultures and identities of millions of people against their will and forcing them to only care about boring mammal-level similarities with strangers.

I love diversity. The idea of forcibly eliminating it like that gives me a terrible feeling.
What do you think the consequences should look like for immigrants who are having a difficult time integrating into the culture?

If immigrants move to another country in which they find it difficult to adjust, perhaps it would be better for them and for society as a whole, if these people would return to their original country.

Further, what exactly is this culture? Speaking English? Watching sports? Joining the local church?

It can be simple things, like shaking hands with woman. Wearing more or less the same clothes. Sending children to state schools and not separate schools. Learning the local language and speaking this language in public.

Adjusting to the social norms is good for immigrants as well, as they will find it much easier to find jobs.

I have a Thai girlfriend and when I am in Thailand we go to a temple quite often (I am not religious at all). I do the same rituals as the Thai people do, out of respect for their culture. I plan to live in Thailand in the future, so I am learning the Thai language. And I hope, sometime in the future, to work for some time in a Thai company, so I can perfect my Thai language skills. I also try to keep in mind other aspects of Thai culture.

I state these points specifically, because these are areas where many European countries failed, out of the failed idea of multi-culturalism [0]. I don't think the situation in the US is quite the same as Europe (yet), but perhaps it could be in the future.

How do the Romans define what it is that the Romans do such that they can require it of someone?

It's a quote from Saint Ambrose that basically means that one has to adjust to the society one moves in. You can't go to Saudi-Arabia and expect western behaviour, western norms would be tolerated. You'd find yourself in very big problems quickly. And it's the same in most countries in the world.

The US is about 10-50 years behind modern democracies when it comes to many social issues and policies, as well as governance. It's time for some change. I guess that's what a lot of Trump voters actually voted for (also Obama 8 years go), but different people have different change in mind.
Are we pretending trump didn't insult every opponent in his campaign regardless of gender, or are we pretending it's worse because Hillary is a woman? I'm never sure what to pretend politically.
Debate competitions have devolved into some sort of speed-talking, where the number of arguments that the opponent needs to address is more important than the substance of the points themselves.

There's a RadioLab episode about that at http://www.radiolab.org/story/debatable/
An example they use is that if a debater A has six points in his speech that need to be addressed, and the opponent B only addresses four, A wins by default, since there were two points that were unaddressed.

It reminds me a lot about this election, where there's so much polluting the discourse that there's no time to address the substance (and it plays better to the audience, as Moonves stated).

I think this is a really bad/scary idea. A great thing about democracy is that _everyone_ has a voice.

I grew up in Birmingham, Alabama. In school we were taught a great deal of the Civil Rights movement, as much of it happened in our city and state. In particular, this "test" suggestion makes me recall the literacy tests [1] instituted in the Jim Crow south.

Too bad this probably means nothing. There is no way the new Republican President will be hands off, and not enforce the federal law.
I hope everyone in this thread realizes that what they do: writing software and creating machines to replace uneducated lower income white workers -- is probably the single greatest driver to white economic anxiety and the rise of modern white nationalism.

The scary thing is... none of us will stop. Our software, our robots, our big data, how many millions more will be displaced by the next election? How long until taxis and trucks are being massively displaced?

With automation we're digging a grave and the people whom are getting put into that grave will turn to anyone -- anyone -- who promises they can change it.

Donald Trump will be the first of many populist white nationalists in the West who meekly promise they can stop globalization and automation.

They can't. Those jobs are dead men walking. The white working class is a zombie, undead, going through the motions, with twenty million more jobs on the cutting block in the next decade.

A billion guns, a hundred million angry poor white people, and all we're doing is displacing them and validating their anger. What an industry.

Sure, because then people will just stop having abortions. People never had abortions back before they had a legal right to it, right?

If abortions are banned, the only thing it will cause is that abortions will be done in non-medical settings with dangerous methods. Just like they were for hundreds of years.

Let's not even consider the number of orphans and abandoned children which would skyrocket.
We have run massive trade deficits since Reagan. Those ultimately either have to show up as national debt or personal debt. After 35 years, we're nearly maxing out both. Germany has a trade surplus (basically doing the same thing to the rest of the EU.)

What Does a President-Elect Trump Mean for Silicon Valley?
Wasn't aware DSGEs were often formulated in a Bayesian framework. Learn something every day.
I used to use i3 and tmux for a time.

Advantage (of using tmux on top of i3):

When you spin up a new window with i3, it doesn't retain the previous's current working directory. There are some hacks to make it kind of work, none of which work nicely. With tmux it just works.

tmux has synchronized panes. It allows you to send same keystrokes to multiple terminals at once. This is useful for managing multiple host machines at once, i.e. ssh'ing into different machines at checking certain logs.

Disadvantages:

Double the amount of keybindings you need: one set for i3, one set for tmux. i3 allows you to active a mode where keystrokes are 'forwarded', so theoretically you can use the same keybindings for both, although it is very annoying if you forget to active this mode since you're now creating i3 windows instead of tmux panes and have to clean them up.
> He came to Elm expecting a Haskell for the web

No, I don't think that's true. He came to Elm hoping there would be some useful ways to create abstractions in the language (that doesn't necessarily mean there has to be typeclasses. in fact, the whole article his him pursuing an alternate method of abstraction), and besides creating a function there really is none in Elm.

You must resign yourself to write the same boilerplate over and over. It is impossible to keep any large Elm project DRY.
First and foremost, I'm not an asshole. I think if you asked anyone who knows me, they will say that I abide pretty heavily to the mantra of kindness that I have tattooed up my hand. Secondly, I wasn't critical of Slava or RethinkDB, although if you'd like me to be critical of either, I'm happy to, specially RethinkDB - I'm not familiar with Slava at all. I had actually written out the steps BEFORE I read the article, and expected to put a "tl;dr" at the start (as I was the first comment). As I read it actually wasn't what the author had penned I added that it wasn't the advice the author gave, and then I realized the author also co-founded Rethink so I tacked that on. There was no malice in this post, I apologize if it came across as smug (as others have mentioned) or wanky. I apologize to Slava if it was seen as an attack, and I apologize to the rethinkdb team if I belittled their efforts. Legitimately, wasn't my intention.
If you think that a reasoned, nuanced argument is going to bring this guy over to my point of view - that view being that reducing 1.6 billion people spread across 57 countries down to a couple of Sam Harris youtube clips is silly - I'll have to disagree. Also: why on earth would you think that?

Was that "didn't scare Wall Street" or was it "had accepted tens of millions of dollars from Wall Street"? If Wall Street gets final vet, the Democrat party has changed from the days of FDR. (OT: will they or any of the other Clinton Family Foundation donors ask for refunds?) The inability to see how conflicts of interest look from outside is a Smugness that has afflicted Democrats and Republicans both.

Trump could definitely be a one-termer. I could see him getting bored and letting Pence take over, or deciding to campaign for someone else in his cabinet, or even figuring out something so terrible that it will finally make evangelicals vote against him. Or, he could be like Reagan and W, just let his people handle everything, and sail on to a second term.
Black money aside, there's going to be a lot of legitimately-held larger bills that will need to be swapped for the smaller ones. Do those 100 Rs bills even physically exist?

My family is Bangladeshi. The food is amazing and the people are generally kind. But we came to the U.S. for a reason. It's worth remembering: 30% of Latinos in Florida voted for Trump. The left is not doing a good job walking that fine line between "we welcome those who want to become American" and "we are willing to give up the aspects of American culture that make people want to come here."

This is a fantasy that is born out of spending too much time on messageboards and not enough in reality.

Another path forward that seems reasonable is to let capitalism mostly flourish as it may (after all by many accounts, the US is doing pretty well, creating lots of jobs, output is up but in automated factories, wages finally starting to rise a bit, etc), but tax the upper and upper middle class a little heavier and create a new New Deal for the "post blue collar" age.

Expand the Americorps program for instance. Investments in commuter transit seem like a particularly good idea because would be construction jobs building it, and then it could make commuting from rural areas to cities faster and easier which means that more people could participate in the growth of the cities.

I'm sure it wouldn't be perfect, and maybe I'm just biased as one of the liberal elites or whatever. But this seems like a much better world to live in then one where we just start curbing technological advances further and further to preserve the 19th century ideal of working class jobs when they are less and less needed.
The electoral college system means most elections are pretty close if you consider how many votes could theoretically flip the result. About 70,000 votes would flip Florida this time, for example, and about 35,000 votes would flip Pennsylvania.

Of course, nothing is likely to come close to 2000, where changing a mere 269 votes would have changed the outcome.
At the risk of sounding like I'm speaking for all Americans, I think most Americans are more comfortable with a politician spending their own money to get elected rather than be influenced by someone else's money.

How many Americans are aware that most of that money isn't Trump's, I'm not sure. But he's a billionaire! and he's against special interests! So how would a man like that just turn around and take contributions?

sigh.

There are good things that can come from this, however. We shall wait and see. My prediction is that Trump is the most bombastic, blowhard of a president, but his actual policies end up being mild.
Boy am I ever glad that the world I live in doesn't in any way resemble the world you live in.

The one issue I have with tmux, versus using iterm natively, is that every single time I have to reboot my machine for an operating system upgrade, I lose all the terminal history of my tmux sessions - whereas with iterm, when the machine restarts, it restarts with the all the windows and terminal histories intact.

Its ironic that tmux doesn't provide any mechanism to save your terminal history between reboots. Tools like tmuxinator/tmux-resurrect will save your session/window/pane configs, but you lose all your history...

If I could just recover my (typically very valuable) terminal history between reboots, tmux would be the perfect tool for managing my terminal environments...
So far, so good as far as I know.
I agree that the "$republican is literally hitler", "$republican is racist", etc, is more hysterical this time around. I attribute that to Trump being blatantly on the wrong side of the culture war [1].

I'm just saying that "XXX republican is racist" has lost it's meaning due to overuse. The boy has cried "hitler" about Bush, Romney, etc, and the villagers will no longer come running.

[1] I recommend reading Moldbug's article on the topic: http://unqualified-reservations.blogspot.com/2007/05/castes-... The tl;dr; is that while Bush and Romney were Brahmin Republicans, Trump is very clearly a Vaisya, leading to vastly more hysteria.
This election came down to moral outrage. The duplicity and flat out dishonesty of the media, the simmering anger at Obama's broken promises about health care ("If you like your plan, you can keepy it") and the serious and deep personal flaws of Hillary Clinton was just too much to overcome.

One thing that shouldn't be overlooked either is that while some view Trump's platform as racist, his supporters see him as the exact opposite. He's hard on illegal immigration but otherwise has no particular bias towards Mexicans on a personal level. In fact he has sympathized with them on why so many of them are fleeing for their lives to the USA, something nobody is willing to talk about.

Part of commercial sales is simply educating potential customers. Given the target audience for the project, there is a lack of technical detail relevant to developers.

Being based of NSIS, I'd go further and say that there ought to be an honest use case analysis so that developers know when it is better to use NSIS instead of Breakneck. People using your product unsuccessfully is likely to be worse over the long run than not using it at all.

Tell people what the tradeoffs are so that they can determine if Breakneck is right for them.

Good luck.

> if an white European American expresses pride at his cultural heritage

As a white guy who was raised in Upstate NY, and had festivals throughout the year for Italian (a Columbus Day Parade + multiple social clubs), Greek, & Ukrainian festivals, a huge St Patty's Day parade, etc, this doesn't ring true.

We didn't have a single festival for brown people or native people. There were no Women's parades.

He's implying that women on their periods have their judgement impaired, which, considering that only women have periods, is sexist and false.
No. If unreasonable limits are put on voting, people will find other, more destructive ways to "vote". Every government is eventually a democracy, in the sense that if you rule against your citizens' wishes for long enough and they aren't allowed to vote, they will try to kill you or overthrow you. It just isn't very practical to rule without the consent of the governed.

> Is the action motivated by knowledge better to the uninformed one?

Well yes, obviously, but it's better to try to force people to be informed than to ignore them. As you may have noticed, people don't like being ignored.
