Every pro for Android save ad revenue is a con in reality.

Diverse devices, market share = Fragmentation, DPI issues, OEM breaking apps their images with customizations, popular hardware years behind the curve of computing power still coming out

Diverse demographics: I've seen people ban entire regions of Eastern Europe from their apps because of the 1 star generic "Is Virus" type of low effort review. I don't know what it is with Android and certain parts of the world that disproportionately misused reviews. Apple has a similar problem but to a much lesser extent, and the hybrid per version rating system helps.

Android also makes you deal with taxes in all those regions, essentially making you the seller instead of the store, where Apple handles all of that.
> Tonight a large portion of the country confirmed that the US is for whites. That it's not a melting pot.

That's a bit strange, I thought the right preferred assimilationism (melting pot) and the left preferred multiculturalism (salad bowl).

I think that what people are trying to explain is that that kind of shaming, accusatory, intentional, mischaracterization of the 'right' is what caused us to now have Trump as our president. You are alienating them.

The kind of people that I know that actually voted for Trump could not care less about the color/religion of a person so long as they had a basic desire to assimilate. In other words; come to America to become an American not to make America like place you left.

Now we have an obligation to understand these Trump voters as generously as possible; or we can berate, belittle, and battle-harden them and get another Trump (or worse) in 8 years.

AP and Reuters pay people to check the results locally. Between them, they feed a LOT of outlets. A significant amount of the data is available online pretty quickly, but some states and localities simply don't publish the data in a timely manner.

Some news organizations will have their own staff checking results, especially in areas where it is known that the results will be slow and the results are going to be within polling error margins.

You'd think the data could be crowd-sourced more effectively, but private citizens get the data more slowly for a few reasons ... First is that there is red tape involved in obtaining the data (i.e. forms to fill out, fees to pay and it all must be done ahead of time) and second is that after-hours early access to data is just plain limited logistically. If it could be efficiently delivered to a large quantity of people, it would be presented online.

There are a few areas where the government decides that it's more efficient to let private parties distribute data, and it's generally pretty good business to become one of those parties. NMVTIS data comes to mind immediately (carfax and it's competitors), but there are many similar instances.
It's not that interior lands are against trade, it's that we are against trade that negatively advantages the US. When China can dump goods in the US with little to no tariffs, and the US cannot send goods to China, cannot send innovative products to China without them being copied, something is wrong. China has stolen technology and products from the rest of the world, why continue to reward them for it?
The GOP congress decided to bring Obama down from the start, and never gave an inch. He tried valiantly to collaborate and compromise but the GOP didn’t have the political capacity to work with Obama for fear of being challenged in primaries from the right.

You’re right that the ACA ended up being a political disaster for the Democrats though.

The ACA was basically the same as “RomneyCare” in MA, and was a style of healthcare reform supported by mainstream center-right Republicans and some center-left Democrats (most Democrats wanted a single payer plan, or at least a public option, but took what they could get because the healthcare system was/is at a breaking point), but once Obama’s name was on it they all decided to throw everything they could against it.

The GOP campaigned hard against the ACA after it passed, and won massively in the midterm elections in 2010 on the back of wall-to-wall anti-ACA messaging on right-leaning media and a huge amount of organizing and spending (the first post-Citizens United election). They took control of the House, Senate, and many state legislatures, following which they redrew all the district boundaries to cut Democrats permanently out of competition in the House and many state legislatures.

After the crushing defeat in 2010, there weren’t enough Senate seats up for grabs in 2012 for the Democrats to regain control. Thus Obama had to deal with 6 years of GOP control, which has been the most obstructionist Congress in US history. As soon as McConnell won in 2010 he publicly declared that his #1 goal was to make Obama a 1-term president. We had multiple government shutdown threats, unprecedented obstruction of executive appointments including judges at every level of the federal court system, bogus investigation after bogus investigation into e.g. Benghazi, and dozens of purely symbolic votes to repeal the ACA.

For instance, various Trump brands manufacture heavily in China.
It's only because Elm is basic Haskell minus a lot of stuff. So basically if you know Haskell you already know Elm (so you need the 15 minutes to get up to speed wrt ports and subscriptions or whatever), but at the same time miss the stuff that has been left out that you take for granted, hence the failed attempt of the author to get some of that back.

Construction de logements et la lutte contre le changement climatique
Long-term back pain that counted as a pre-existing condition for every insurance package I had, on the rare occasions when I could afford to be insured. That eventually degenerated into a couple of prolapsed disc that cut off the nerves to may legs, resulting in constant pain (the kind that leaves you screaming and writhing without a constant morphine drip) and making it impossible to walk, sit up, or go to the bathroom unaided. While not technically a life-threatening condition, my quality of life was low enough that I certainly would have committed suicide had it persisted indefinitely.

In the US, as I say, this would not have been covered by my insurance, and would have cost around $50,000 to fix. Completely infeasible for me to find that amount of money. The NHS did an excellent job of fixing it for free.
Calm down, WWIII hasn't begun yet and i don't see any reason why Indonesia will attack Australia now.

> On one of my teams of 10 people at Google, we had immigrants from Iceland, England, Vietnam, China, Taiwan, and India, and I was the only native-born American citizen.

How is this an argument? I'm not from the US and I'm not very well read on the issue, but isn't it illegal immigrants they want to deport?

Who said that people from those countries couldn't be well educated and be fully functional Americans?

Also, I live in Malmö Sweden (coastal city) and the right-wing party here is strong, and we have lots of problem with immigrants, both legal and illegal.
I've yet to meet a Trump voter who didn't meet that criteria. Just because people don't like to be described in a certain way doesn't mean that it doesn't describe them. Trump didn't win because of any sort of liberal catechism. He won because the media has done a bang up job of scaring the crap out of the average citizen about immigration and terrorism while pimping his brand because he's a perverse curiosity in a suit.

If it happened you can give an example of when it happened.

But if someone states:
"...but are not allowed to cultivate, maintain and respect our own (American) culture."

he/she must back it with something other than feelings.
If this is a fact there must be hundreds of examples.
> Both social and traditional news media are structured to cash in on unique/improbable/dramatic events automatically.

How so, politician? Anything by design? Or simply the human nature to consume more media in "watershed" events? This could explain some of the media positioning in the last 18 months or so..
Soviets targeted teachers too. Well, whoever they presumed would be opposed to occupation and/or pro-independence. Coincidentally, that was most of the educated people. Teachers, doctors, architects, lawyers...

My grandgrandparents were on the list just because they were teachers in a small town. They didn't end up in Siberia just because some of their ex-students ended up in local police and pulled strings to remove them from the list. They were kicked out of their jobs and had to work shitty jobs for the rest if their lives though.

A remote relative was a lawyer. Small time solicitor in small town in the middle of nowhere. Direct ticket to Siberia. Eventually he was allowed to leave Siberia, but not allowed to settle in Lithuania. He did get permission to get back to Lithuania late in life though.

Neither of them actively supported anti-Soviet resistance or Nazis. Not wealthy either, unless you count a small townhouse in province towns as wealth. They got in trouble just because they were educated and seemed to be a threat to Soviet establishment.
The problem is that his political peers think, fossil energy is required to "make America great again". And unfortunately, they are right if its about the strategy that takes the least effort to achieve the economic goal.

That's in big contrast on what Clinton advertised with pushing renewable energy to a point, where it helps the economy.

The discussion was about white men, and you purposefully conflate this with "social superiority"?

So is it fair to say that it is possible for me to conclude "xyz is broken" based on a single paragraph? For example, if I read the Wikipedia article on Perl 6, the second paragraph says "While historically several interpreter and compiler implementations were being written, today only the Rakudo Perl implementation is in active development."

So let me skip the part where I spend 2 weeks picking up a language!

Let's go straight to: "if an ostensibly open language only has one single implementation, it is fundamentally broken and underspecified and should not be used by anyone, period."

Is the part I quoted enough for me to conclucde that it's a broken language not fit for any use by anyone? Because the article that we're talking about has the title "Elm is wrong."

Can I say, "Perl 6 is wrong" without even bothering with coding in it for a few months?

Ukraine has more in common with Poland (which was ruling the majority of territories where Ukraine is now) than with Russia (which took those territories from Poland in the late 18th century during the partitioning of Poland).
Concerns about Islam were certainly a fairly major contributor to Trump's victory.

Many on the left - especially the so-called progressives - are blind to the danger of Islamism. To those who recognize and prioritize the problem, Trump was the obvious choice.

The charges of bigotry so often heard no longer work. Such labeling cannot suppress the fact that Islamist values (based on revelation) are incompatible with Western secular values, (which are based on evidence and reason).

Now if it turns out climate change is a bigger concern than creeping Islamism then we're in trouble.

Because he's joking and making fun of the fact that the original post presumes everyone lives in America and sees 'Abroad' as elsewhere.
So what?

The world is literally starving for high quality assets with yield right now. Ten year bonds in Japan have zero yield and a lot of bonds are trading with negative yield. If China were to convert all those bonds into cash in a fire sale there would be investors literally lining up to purchase them.

Then all that China has done is traded one form of USD debt (bonds) for another form (cash). To get out of the USD it would need to exchange that for something else of value. What? Bonds denominated in Euro? Ten?

How do you think the ECB or JCB would react if their currencies started to soar relative to the USD as a result? Do you think Germany would sit idly by as their manufacturing was decimated due to the strong currency? Would Japan?

So what if instead they went on a shopping spree and bought US produced goods. Would the US be aghast as demand soared and factories were expanded and wages rise and imports from China sank?

There are certainly people that would get hurt in that scenario. Retirees would be crushed; retail would be crushed; real estate would be crushed; US government spending would be crushed; Wall Street banks would be crushed; US advertising would be crushed.

But at the same time farmers would soar; manufacturing would soar; oil producers would soar; miners would soar;

Look at the US electoral map and see if how many Trump states would be on the wrong side of that outcome.
I am struggling to understand how "corrupt elite" isn't a good description of Donald Trump?

Bitmain Controversy (75% of Bitcoin hashpower to be in 1 building)
> Actually it's common Balto-Slavic branch. I'm not kidding: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balto-Slavic_languages

I am American, and my father's parents were from Lithuania.

I noticed recently, within the last few years, that several English Wikipedia articles were edited by someone with a Slavic background to promote the idea that Baltic languages are more related to Slavic ones than I have heard anyone claim before. I would imagine this is a controversial claim in the Baltic states.

At any rate Baltic languages are famously more conservative than Slavic ones. They are of course related as all indo-european languages are. The only question is how far back in history you have to go for that to be a relevant matter. I do not think they are close enough that it is relevant.

california doubled down on the death penalty

prop 62 (o)

> Repeals death penalty and replaces it with life imprisonment without possibility of parole. Applies retroactively to existing death sentences. Increases the portion of life inmates' wages that may be applied to victim restitution. Fiscal Impact: Net ongoing reduction in state and county criminal justice costs of around $150 million annually within a few years, although the impact could vary by tens of millions of dollars depending on various factors.

prop 66 (i)

> Changes procedures governing state court challenges to death sentences. Designates superior court for initial petitions and limits successive petitions. Requires appointed attorneys who take noncapital appeals to accept death penalty appeals. Exempts prison officials from existing regulation process for developing execution methods. Fiscal Impact: Unknown ongoing impact on state court costs for processing legal challenges to death sentences. Potential prison savings in the tens of millions of dollars annually.

I don't think the sexism/racism shouts from progressives at Trump (and his supporters) were related to conservatives' disapproval of Clinton. The folks that voted for Trump did so not because they are sexist; they did it because they just plain hated Clinton (in particular) and the establishment.

I don't think the majority of Trump voters actually believe that Clinton shouldn't be president because she's a woman. They just view her as a corrupt, establishment politician and Trump just seemed like the lesser of two evils in their eyes.

I think the media vastly underreported just how much the Right hates Clinton. The Right wing media has been pushing anti-Clinton rhetoric hard for about eight years now!

Could you expand on the reasons why you'd be a fool to stay? Thanks.
The girlfriend is an example, it's a proxy for "fixing my life".

All my life I've been shamed by leftists, mostly because I'm a white male from a good Christian family and succeeded at schools. It has had impact on my career for example, since companies decided to promote junior women instead. Leftists couldn't get over that and see the guy who needed help to be socially included. Leftists are pretty happy to see a rich person be socially rejected or committing suicide, actually. I bet many people voting Trump feel just the same: Leftists are prompt at shaming people for being privileged while not caring for their problems. We need a return of solidarity, and if not that, then we'll just vote for ourselves.

Hence, I have stopped caring for what leftists say. But if people could get enough solidarity to help me get my life fixed (the girlfriend is just an example), then I'd go back to voting normally.

Yes, I've seen a psychologist. Psychologists can fix the person, not society. If society keeps sending crap because you're a white male, nothing will repair your self-esteem.
The problem with your analysis, he didn't pull any more voters than Romney. He didn't win, Hillary lost.

> you are the wealthiest, healthiest, most celebrated segment in modern society.

individuals experience reality as individuals, not in aggregate. Also, you can slice the cake as you wish - you can specify a group as "the wealthiest/celebrated" group directly, without conflating this with race or sex, whatever correlations might exist.

The wealthiest white males live on the liberal coasts of CA and in NY, mean FA to rust belt white men who are being told to stfu because they are so wealthy/powerful/celebrated... in aggregate at least. White men can reject the establishment too - there is no contradiction in the fact that the "establishment" consists mainly of white males, so long as you understand that race/sex/etc aren't the only way to group the world.
Completely understand the benefits of greater global integration including the reduced likelihood of WWIII breaking out but the USD acting as one reserved currency isn't one of them in a deflationary environment isn't one of them.
I don’t expect them to localize for my language (the country is mostly not relevant to l10n). By all means, English only. Perfectly understandable if an advanced feature that depends on a language (Siri) is not available (this one actually is). Or if it truly is country-specific (Siri’s restaurant reservations, traffic, public transport, ...), again, understandable.

But why is Data Studio not available worldwide in English? Makes no sense.

Or why is freakin Wikipedia search geo-blocked in iOS and macOS and you only get Wikipedia results or suggestions in Safari in select few countries and not anywhere else, even with English version? That my phone shuts of half its locale-indendent features the moment I cross the border from Germany makes no damn sense.
