Thats one of the things that most people overlook. Apple have consistently been marketing B2B hardware to B2C customers. Invariably when people complain that brand X is crap vis a vis Apple they are comparing some bargain basement web terminal laden with bloatware to a Macbook Pro.

The popular vote is irrelevant for actually winning - what matters is how states at the margins vote. Look at Michigan. Look at Ohio. Look at Pennsylvania. For the Democrats, Hillary was an unmitigated disaster in all of those areas.

Also, keep in mind that most of the electorate votes against party lines, even if the party were to nominate Satan. She completely failed the margins.

This has been a constant theme in this election. I criticize Trump based on something he said. A supporter tells me I'm taking it out of context. I look up the context and it either doesn't change anything or just plain makes it even worse.

"...until we find out what the heck is going on" doesn't help. Hate doesn't stop being hateful when you say it's temporary, and neither does blatantly violating the Constitution become OK.

"And some, I assume, are good people." This immediately follows "They’re rapists." So, what does it mean? Some of the rapists are good people? Or he meant to say that some of them are rapists? Even there, "some" implies not huge amount, so "some are good people" implies most of them aren't. So, OK, he only called most illegal Mexican immigrants rapists, that's not much better.

Finally, let me guess, you believe his followup damage control that "second amendment people" meant their superior abilities at political organization?
You are mixing up production and export.
US produces more Oil and natural gas, but is low on exports.
Norway on the other hand has a low domestic consumption (because of a low population) and is able to generate more revenue on exports.

Vermont and Burlington are going pretty fucking good.
A difference of 0.2% (around 250k votes) in popular vote is not conclusive.

If USA chose the president by popular vote, the campaigns would have been run differently, and some people especially in "sure" states could have had different voting behavior.

I do agree that the US Electoral College system feels obsolete and should be modernized.
I'm betting the biggest feature of the "Late 2017" MBP will be a 32GB option.

>why her

Because she has been in politics for for 30 something years, been on the national stage for 20 something years, and has been "the next president" for roughly 10 years. This wasn't one hit job, this was decades of concentrated work that eventually broke the camel's back.
This tool is mind-blowingly effective a warding off the sort of concerns that you raise, of a tool not capturing and reflecting users' many complex viewpoints:

It's mainly geared toward single-issue consultations and discussions, but definitely worth understanding.

I know some folks who facilitate municipal consultations in one of the largest Canadian cities, a job for which helping often divided participants to arrive at meaningful consensus is high-priority. Their comment after the demo was "My mind is honestly reeling right now. Never in my life did I think any part of my job could be automated and democratized, because what I do is synthesize fuzzy participant feelings in a very unscalable way. But this tool just might automate away some of what we do."

Not every developer on this planet cares about the coincidence that macOS is a UNIX, it is a nice to have feature, but that is all about it.

Actually I bet that those that regularly attend WWDC, the actual developers that Apple cares about, don't care that much about the vocal minority.

I am a developer, XCode and all the other developer tools work perfectly fine for mac OS, iOS and tvOS applications.

Also for those workflows, targeting actual Apple customers that love the whole packaged experience of hardware + software, we hardly fill 8GB, let alone 16GB.
I hope both parties learn something form this result. Establishment Republicans and the DNC alike have had their asses handed to them handily. I suspect the Democrats will need to move more towards the progressive wing to be competitive in the future. Someone like Warren may be able to straddle the fine line of capturing Bernie enthusiasm without isolating more center leaning democrats.

We all have much less control over our career paths than we realize. Do your best work everyday, try to be pleasant to the people you manage/work with/work for. Throw a few percent of every check into a decent index fund, put down the smart phone when your kids want your attention, and if your career ends as a Walmart door greeter or replaceable corporate cog, all the "coulda's" in the world won't change anything.
HW developer here with similar experience. The only thing I could really use is more than 16 GByte of memory. Otherwise, the new MBPs are enough for basically all my work. Being able to that in a small package is great.

I went from MBA to MBPr for the better screen resolution and more than 8 GByte RAM which was a big problem running VMs with FPGA tools, but missed the size and low weight of the MBA. The new MBP without TouchBar is basically the machine I wanted when I switched to MBPr

When the MBP don't have the oomph to build a big FPGA, run huge simulations in reasonable time, build big SW systems etc, you need to use a server anyway. IMHO.
>> The mainstream media backed Clinton.

This should be big wakeup call. Is this the kind of media you want? They need to stick to the facts, real news, and letting us know what people are thinking ... not what they would like us to think.
That's because as a software dev, your requirements are relatively lightweight. I do video editing, computational 3d geometry work, and none of these operations run easily on the cloud.
What do you mean it's an Intel issue? There are other Skylake laptops with more than 16GB, e.g. the Dell XPS 15.

Edit: The Dell can have the same CPU i7-6700HQ with 32GB RAM.
Here are my guesses:

Cheap low-end laptops = not profitable

Expensive low-end laptop = MacBook / iPad

Desktops = not popular enough to update frequently (desktops have become a small sliver of the laptop market which is itself a small piece of the computer market)

Based on profitability alone, I would not be surprised to see Apple exit the computer market entirely and sell only iOS devices. Macs may only be around anymore to run XCode, from the perspective of strict business necessity. Port that to another platform and Apple can narrow its focus to iOS.

Can you imagine the internals of XCode for Windows? It would make the iTunes Windows compatibility layers look small.

The smaller the election the better, actually. Because your influence will have a greater relative weight.

Though, the vote that you can do that has the most influence on you is the vote with your feet.
My optimistic take: he's probably going to be a Berlusconi. Generally bad for the economy, bad for freedom, but probably won't carry through on the worst of his bad ideas. I think there's a small chance he'll be more of a Mussolini. The obvious thing to look for there is if he starts trying to carry out the threat to deport illegal immigrants, which would require door to door searches, "papers please" and that kind of thing.

There are also some serious geopolitical things that could go real wrong real quick: if I were in one of the Baltic states this morning, I would be doing some serious thinking about defense.
For me the other issues I can overlook somewhat, but the killer is the keyboard. It seems to divide people strongly one way or the other, but to me its horrendous. There's basically 0 key travel, the keys just click. I average about the same typing speed as my 2014 mbp but the experience is not nice, and for longer days spent coding I'm sure it'll become uncomfortable on your finger tips.

And the question is why? I can only think the decisions behind the keyboard are to facilitate the goal of making the MacBook thinner and thinner, the point of diminishing returns on that was passed 2 years ago.

On top of that, I bought my MacBook pro in 2014 for £1200, to replace it today with the bottom 13" model would cost £1750. That's some price hike!

Even worse, the only reasons the mid-century was so great in America are 1) we had all the gold (from exporting during WW2), and 2) the productive capacity of most other developed countries was completely destroyed (by WW2). Even if globalization and automation were not issues, there would still be no way of life to go back to.

That's unlikely, it is not the direction Evan wants to take, and so far the language has gone the opposite direction on purpose and by design.

Which they probably won't. Realise that the Elm platform is written in Haskell, Evan knows about these features, he could have used them and he very specifically avoided doing so. If you want these abstraction-building tools you'll be much better off looking at e.g. PureScript rather than wait for Elm to add them.
Trump’s Triumph: DiEM25 on how progressives must react
This contradicts the "disgruntled blue collar white support
base" narrative

Why would it have to contradict? It could be a hybrid.
Bernie's viewpoints were so far left that he had to hammer on them for 40+ years until the stars aligned and we all began to recognize the pearls of truth they held. Twenty years ago I could not have considered his viewpoint but now with more age and empathy driven into me I can get behind (most of) his viewpoint. Thank God for Bernie and hopefully we can rebirth a new democratic party that can integrate some of his views to help recapture a large part of the 59,000,000 people that felt compelled to vote for Trump.

ENTIRE SCHOOL DOES THE MANNEQUIN CHallENGE
Scott Adams deserves some credit for recognizing how persuasive Trump has been going all the way back to August 2015. That said, his prediction wasn't totally on target. From "Trump's Third Act"[1]:

> I predict Trump gets at least 65% of the votes in the general election.

and:

> Trump will do what only Trump can do: He will change his mind based on better data.

Adams predicted a landslide assuming that Trump would have a third act in which he became a candidate that more people could relate to.

Credit to Scott Adams for recognizing Trump's ability to pull this off when many were still considering him to be a joke candidate. I didn't really see the change in Trump that Adams predicted, and this election was no landslide... Trump had a solid margin in the electoral college but appears to have lost the popular vote.

Serious question - why doesn't anyone talk about moving to Mexico? It's a lot warmer...
He said Gaddafi, not Benghazi.

Benghazi was a political dog and pony show, that she is completely blameless of.

Libya and Gaddafi were a humanitarian disaster that rests squarely on her shoulders.
Yes, Pence's position is unfortunate, but he was brought in to please the religious supporters.

I believe Trump's administration will focus on pressing trade/economics and foreign policy issues, not bathroom identification issues, which affect 0.3% of the population.

To people disappointed with his victory, the consoling fact should be that Trump is not a religious nut. Yes, he said things about Supreme Court/abortion - as a Republican, you have to, to win the primaries.
Although (in typical San Francisco fashion) this implementation seems likely to be expensive and only moderately successful in the long run, is anyone else cautiously optimistic in the direction that many large cities are heading with respect to AirBnB use?

I for one have always enjoyed using the service, but am thoroughly convinced that allowing the rental of entire suites is having a considerable impact on local housing availability.

This is going on in San Francisco, but I don't think to quite the same extent as what was happening in Berlin. I made a trip there a year and a half back where I stayed at about five different AirBnB units over a three week period. It was quite obvious that every one of them without exception was "professional" in that they were reserved for use by AirBnB 100% percent of the year and oftentimes had paid clean up crews who were _not_ the owner. I did speak to one owner about it, and he said that he was now running this unit along with four others full time on AirBnB. In a world without this option, it's hard to believe that these wouldn't have been normal rental stock.

Recently the city passed Zweckentfremdungsverbot [1] to help counteract the effect. Nowadays AirBnB is still allowed, but only for single rooms in shared units. This strikes me as exactly the right balance.

Right - Hillary had the first part, but not the class struggle, which turned out to be more important this election.
The fact that he had been saying it for 24 years too made it more credible, another issue Hillary suffered with this election.
I feel like, if that is prohibited by law, it really ought to be something other than Section 230 prohibiting that.

Is there anything preventing, say, media companies putting together lists of people they claim violate the law, giving that to a state or local government, and having the state or local government require that camcorder sellers not sell them camcorders? (Section 230 does not apply because there is neither internet nor communication, so they can be banned outright.) What could a camcorder seller do to object to this law?
> Did the United States Just Elect a Monster?

> No. Clinton’s team of cognitive scientists and professional persuaders did a terrific job of framing Trump as scary. The illusion will wear off – albeit slowly – as you observe Trump going about the job of President and taking it seriously. You can expect him to adjust his tone and language going forward.

Wait, so which is it? Is he:

a) sometime who was actually OK because everything he said that was horrible was manipulated into my brain by Clinton's cognitive scientists

b) someone who actually said horrible things and so is actually horrible, but who is now going to adjust his tone (from horrible to presumably not horrible) going forward?
So do you think this ends in gas chambers? It's a serious question.
I dunno, hard drives stop working basically at random in my experience. RAID is extremely helpful if your device is physically safe and not prone to infection.

Disclaimer: I'm a Brazilian living in Brazil, so merely a watcher in the US Election.

On times like these, I try very hard to be optimistic, and for this specific historical moment I'd say the US is in a better place than Brazil - relatively speaking.

While Brazil has just gone through a major soft-coup, that has the majority of the nation, guided by media attention, agreeing with it.

For the US election, however, there's a bright side: the actual majority of the American people (even if for a thing margin) has voted for Hillary Clinton, or at least voted against Trump.

It really does not matter if you support one or the other, the sad fact is that, once again, the US will have a president who was not chosen by the majority of its people. This has significant social and philosophical implications. Maybe, just maybe, this election will be the one that drives change, encouraging states to change their laws and provide a better representative system.

I'm not saying that direct representation is better - I'm not entitled to say that - but there's a very obvious dissatisfaction among the younger American people, which are now in position, and willing, to demand changes and come up with creative solutions for the representative democracy.
> The only thing we've lost is the physical escape and function keys, and that's not exactly a show-stopper. Possibly a mild inconvenience.

Show-stopper for me. I have no need to retrain my coding habits, there are plenty of computer companies that still happily provide the ESC key as they have for the last 30 years, so I'll just move to one of those computer brands.
His relatives voted? How are they Trolls? It might have to get worse, before it gets better? They apparently voted for Trump because they don't believe in career politicians. They did not just sit, and complain. Sometimes, the biggest complainer in the village brings on change.

(I'm really tired of the word Troll. We need to stop using this Interweb speak. It's just played out. The slightest critism, "She's a Troll!" It's done. Let's put these words away? Let's leave them to the Wayback Machine?)

I recently flipped off my code-as-hobby switch and went into writing myself. It was a gradual thing, but after a few months of dumping ideas I moved to writing prompts (like those in /r/writingprompts). I challenged myself to write one a week. then two. Now I find myself participating in NaNoWriMo, which appeared out of nowhere, and the writing comes almost naturally.

Best lesson I've take from it is to push through and finish something, starting with smaller bites (blurbs, then stories, then books :)

I think Trump knows his broad base of voters want broad band and net neutrality. This is his chance to "drain the Washington swamp"
Like Iraq rests on Bush's shoulders and cost him the election?
The DNC leaks show that Democrats also incited violence on Trump rallies. So you didn't really have a choice.
>Are you saying the cost is too high, or it is simply infeasible to improve the lives of this many people?

I'm saying a system designed for 10 million users cannot simply be extended to 320 million, particularly when that larger population is substantially more diverse.

Consider a social science study looking at the same populations. Would you really expect any given finding in the Scandinavian populations to map to the US?
Why are people posting this self-important joker? He didn't just predict a Trump presidency, he predicted a landslide--where in fact it's possible Trump doesn't even have the popular majority. And to top it off, he predicted that Trump would do it with his magic hypnotism powers.
Cute sound bite, but there is no proof of it, unless you are subscribing to the 'only whites are racist' definition of racism.

Anyone who believes in quotas for hiring is a racist/sexist and they likely voted for Hillary.
Related to the hollowing out of the middle class is the insane super-concentration of opportunity into cities. Even some suburbs around hot cities are now no-go zones.
What is "the right thing to do"? Depends doesn't it? Just because other languages have support for something like typeclasses, doesn't mean that it's the right thing for Elm to have.

The fact that NoRedInk are perfectly happy without typeclasses (or something similar) could be an indication that it really isn't as important that people would make you believe. After all, there are several languages out there with support for typeclasses (or something similar). Like purescript. And yet, people decide to use Elm.

I have a different POV on this given I currently live in Dubai, UAE. They have a 74KM automated rail system (Dubai Metro) and most of it is built on raised towers. This proposed system from what I understand is going to cross mostly empty dessert area.

Secondly, UAE is a pretty safe country in terms of terrorism. At least thats the perception you get if you live here. I haven't heard of one terrorism related activity here. That may be because the media is tightly controlled, but word still gets out if something that major were to happen here. This might just be because they have very tightly controlled borders, and are surrounded by friendly states that also have a relatively good security record (Saudi, Oman).

Just my take on these issues. I don't have any hard data, this is just my perception from having spent 3 years in this country.
