The problem I see in this case is a lot of genuine uncertainty. Particularly if you are IT in a global reaching business, of whom would be affected by talk on clamping down on free trade and immigration.

Trump could end up being an old style Republican in disguise after all, for all we know, and the campaign bluster is just bluster. That's not bad for the career path. Trump could also be a genuine raging fascist. That's not really good for the career path at all. Or Trump could end up being in that "most likely" middle, aka a Berlusconi type figure. For the career path there, that's a solid "meh" (although I did hear there was a bit of a brain drain in the Berlusconi days).

Remember that Hillary Clinton was "most likely" to win. You can't take "most likely" for granted these days. So one needs to evaluate all options (without being so ridiculously alarmist and realize that the worst case doesn't always happen). In the worst case scenario, I can't imagine global-reaching companies being gun-ho about maintaining a strong presence here. And I "go where the jobs go", to be honest.

Free speech is (sadly) already restricted at universities.

Make however a distinction between the free speech of individuals, and that of institutions (such as the church) operating on university premises. There is a place for indiscriminately allowing the former, but not the latter.
If you live in California or NY, considered the tech hubs of U.S., there's not much worry. Those states are so liberal, a conservative House+Senate+Prez isn't going to make a difference. Republicans are usually for leaving laws to the state as well.

So if you dislike the outcomes of the election, move to a very blue state.

Indeed the Democratic Party has changed since the days of FDR. It is amusing to consider that FDR thought that a realignment of the parties might be beneficial, with the Republicans picking up the conservative (often southern) Democrats and the Democrats picking up the more liberal (often northeastern) Republicans. How'd that work out?

And of course you are completely correct on the inability to perceive conflicts of interest--where they are or where they just might be.

> I have absolutely no idea where the idea that Trump doesn't want legal immigrants in the country came from; as that's certainly not true.

He probably got it from Trump himself on one of the many occasions when Trump has talked about it. It seems plausible that he wants a c. 30% drop in net legal immigration.[1]

This is also a cornerstone of the Brexit "movement" (if you can really call a loose coalition of people without degrees in low income areas a movement). They want to cap or limit immigration, despite not being exposed to it in any meaningful way. (40% of inner-London's population is "foreign born", which suggests that a disproportionately high number of the UK's migrants live here -- a city which almost unanimously voted to stay in the EU.)

True.

Still more accessible than applying for permanent residentship. Immigration is lengthy, you never know how much time it takes, requires you to have a big sum of money in your bank account, and there's the stress of even not knowing if you will find a job when moving.

Going with a work visa can be a pain, but still a more viable plan for a programmer than going through the permanent immigration route.
- If Muslims aren't allowed to immigrate, then they won't be issued any legal work visas, so legal work visas don't solve anything here.

- If Trump renegotiates, or kills NAFTA, legal works visas of Canadians and Mexicans are affected (maybe even revoked).

Saying "legal work visas" is meaningless in this context.

How Trump redrew the electoral map, from sea to shining sea
I think Democrats just need to nominate better candidates. Al Gore was so boring that his Secret Service nickname was "Al Gore." (A joke, but one he told himself.) Clinton was a terrible candidate who only had a chance because she was running against another terrible candidate.

(And to clarify, I think Clinton was a decent candidate in terms of her policies and her ability to do the job. But she was a terrible candidate in terms of her potential to win. The widespread dislike of her among the electorate may have been unfair, but that doesn't mean it wasn't real.)

Or perhaps nominating bad candidates is just a consequence of the "smug"? Maybe that's what pushes Democrats to think that it's OK if a candidate is boring or unpopular as long as they have good ideas.
If you look at the American election results, more college-educated 18-29 year old white people voted for Trump than for Clinton.

That RC930 looks nice if they've managed to replicate the feel. Topre switches are expensive and for no real reason other than a lack of competition from what I can tell.

Besides the key switches, I really like the layout of the HHKB2. It is based on the old Sun workstation keyboards, which I began my professional career on. And I've learned to appreciate not having the numeric keypad, for ergonomic reasons (mouse hand stays much closer to my body, right shoulder benefits)

The arrow keys and others being replaced with a function key combo took getting used to, but now it's pure muscle memory. I like not moving my hands as much.

It's also a really ideal vi editor layout with its escape key location.
Many of these problems you mention are due to empires past imposing borders that don't correspond to natural nations. Most of Europe's borders are pretty natural equilibriums settled after centuries of wars. They are not perfect though so we are now seeing secessionist movements across the continent. Demographic changes and migrations flows threaten to upset these equilibriums. Africa and Middle East have different problems since their borders are more artificial and imposed from the outside. Most of these regions of the world can barely hold together a cohesive government without outside help.

>Anyone that disagrees with my take on this issue is a moron.

It's wrong to think that everyone who disagrees with you on anything is a moron. It's also wrong to deny the existence of morons who occasionally do moronic things.

I mean, we are talking about a group of people who held a referendum, knowing that the vote would be close, and then didn't even have a plan for what to do afterwards. The country is in chaos and the leaders of the Brexit brigade have all sodded off, having absolutely no idea what to do next.

We did consider the opinions of Brexit supporters. Their concerns were taken seriously. The Conservative government went overboard in its attempts to reduce migration and negotiate a more favorable deal with Europe. They really couldn't have done any more without doing something outright ridiculous. But that wasn't enough. So the public insisted that they do something ridiculous.

There is no justifiable reason for a 50/50 split in any industry. Some industries are dominated by women and some by men. That's OK. It just reflects the differences between men and women, and yes, they do exist.

The same applies to the workforce at large. If a larger percentage of women than men choose not to participate in a traditional manner, that's OK. Just because we don't put a dollar figure on rearing kids or community engagement, doesn't mean those activities don't bring substantial value to the table.

There is a fundamental difference between guys "shooting the shit" and actually behaving that way. He's far too much of a pussy to be grabbing anyone by the pussy. That said, there are certainly scumbags out there who would behave that way and neither you (nor anyone present) should tolerate that kind of behavior, regardless of repercussions.

Well, the last part is easy to say and hard to do. One of the reasons I'm not in a traditional employment setting is that I have a very low tolerance for shitty behavior.

There are definitely things Obama hasn't done, but he absolutely delivered change, and he did it while facing a completely obstructionist Congress and Senate for most of his tenure. People just get complacent, even when things are going great. No matter how much any president does, or how good things are, people will get antsy just because our human nature forces us to constantly avoid what we perceive as stagnation.

That was a different post. This link is to the New York time, the other is to the Washington Post.
>The US managed to create the world's largest economy by 1890, through trade and domestic industry, while almost entirely staying out of major foreign affairs. It wasn't until WW2 that the US emerged fully onto the global stage by necessity due mostly to Europe's disastrous politics and ideologies at the time.

All what this explains is that the potential of the domestic trade in large country such a the US is enormous. Duh.
Japan just like Germany relied on a post-war recovery, the Cold War, the US and invested back into their own growth instead of the military.

In short, no one denied that domestic trade has a lot of growth potential but that isn't an argument that international trade doesn't rely on one's influence and level of defense.

Also, regarding other comments, you always need to properly consider the full context when comparing the past to the present. For instance, until WW2 wars were consider much more of a political tool rather than a disaster. That is a vital point of view the culture of the West only slowly is developing and still in danger to get overthrown.

Bullshit. First of all, high house prices are there because most of the country is dying (another causative factor of this shocking election). Second, as much as "Obamacare" failed, it was better than doing nothing-- we had a 9/11 every 24 days under the old health insurance system-- and repealing it will kill people in blue states and red ones. Finally, the threatened trade wars will put our economy in a deep recession.

It's too early to tell. Trump could turn out to be a "normal" Republican and then we're probably fine. Or, this could be a complete disaster.

> You know that most people don't care about earning SV salary right?

This does not apply only to high-income Americans. In fact, the downsides of a reduced salary are much worse for people with average and low incomes.

It's become pretty obvious since the 2008 recession that people of low incomes, or even average incomes, have few means to control the circumstances of their lives. They are at the mercy of economic and political forces beyond their control. Another recession would victimize them again, and they would be powerless to improve their circumstances.

Americans moving to Canada, whether or not they are high-paid tech workers, will almost certainly take a lower salary in Canada than the one they have in the US, for doing the same job. The safety net in Canada isn't that much better than the one in the US, aside from the obvious exception of free health care. So, a lower salary would be a pretty big sacrifice to make, because it would worsen the problems I mentioned above.
Now that the voices of the disenfranchised blue collar workers have been heard, what actually can be done to help them? I'm less worried about the accusations of racism, etc. because it appears to me a majority are voting because their livelihoods have been lost and, despite economics saying globalization will bring new jobs, they aren't showing up in the critical areas where they are needed.

So, what policies can be put in place specifically to help this demographic? I genuinely don't know.
