> At Google we get fairly decent pay compensation for holding the pager, enough where it can incentivize people to be on the rotation.

Google is a big company. I expect them to 1) Have people in all timezone so that there is no night shift 2) Have many people on rotation so each individual is rarely on shift.

That's not comparable to smaller companies.

Why ? Most office workers for example only untether their laptops when going to meetings. They are every bit as "power user" as those who use a 15 inch laptop.
I think it's somewhat ironic that usually the people complaining about their vote not mattering come from states like CA or NY that are guaranteed to go to one party, and they complain that the only votes that matter are in swing states.

To me, it seems that the people that should be pissed are the ones in swing states, since the winner-take-all nature of the EC means half of those states are completely un-represented.
Not the parent, but that actually seems like a pretty solid idea. Is this actually something that can be done?

Alternatively, why not just require the customer to enter their 10+ digit account number to proceed further?
Yes. It also is a factual statement to say that all those votes were made by people voting in the current system and with the current system in mind. All my points still stand.

Here is an example of the exact reason Trump voters are so mysterious:

Nonsensical beliefs and faulty reasoning are deprecated (and ideally not represented at all) in any well informed clear thinking venue. Here that manifests, quite sensibly, by the downvote.

And any meritocracy would eventually eliminate nonsensical views entirely.

So the problem comes when a political movement harnesses nonsense while clear thinking people have systematical eliminated it entirely from their discourse. And after that movement's unexpected triumph, the clear thinkers try to understand what happened.

A hard problem I would say.

Huh? Politics are never about facts not sure where you get that idea about it's about perception, power etc. Not about facts. Thats why it's called the art of the possible.

You prove my very point. Your believe that the priority should be about how we should fight it. Thats your prioritization. You don't even have to be a climate sceptic to come up with another perspective which is. You don't need to worry about that, technology will solve it.

Agreeing on the basic facts has absolutely nothing to do with politics. Because even the basic facts aren't what drives politics decision making.

Politifact is biased in favor of truth and honest reporting. For which reason it has won a Pulitzer Prize and many other awards for outstanding journalism.

Of course, people who don't want to hear the truth -- most Trump supporters, in my experience -- will deny reality or will try to undermine it in non-truthful ways.

As a matter of fact, there are several other honest fact-checking sites besides Politifact. It would be somewhat interesting if these disagreed with Politifact's judgments, but they don't.
Finally back!

So to answer the question regarding moral high ground: Do I think Clinton also ran an immoral or unethical campaign? Absolutely. You've noted how her supporters have also engaged in those actions by socially stigmatizing free speech.

I'd argue that social stigmatization of speech is allowed, as is the speech itself. Free speech goes both ways, does it not?

But you're right, I would personally still want to listen to people I disagree with, just as we are discussing differences in opinion right now.

And at the end of the day, I don't support Clinton. Precisely because I just didn't feel like I could rationalize that stigmatization for other people's points of view just to reaffirm my own.

Here's the thing though: Did Clinton actively support violence? Racism? I'd argue that she did indeed support sexism, so I can't argue for or against that. I think that Trump reinforces supporter beliefs that racism is okay, that violence towards others that do not agree with him is okay. He has friends like Steve Bannon, that had a domestic violence dispute, that ran a hate-filled website. I can't deny that Bannon's probably a very smart individual, but morally I'm not sure I can support that.

And we're seeing the repercussions of Trump's rhetoric, at least here in the Midwest and South. I'm from a southern state, and live near a public university. As a person of color, I've had people in trucks with confederate flags tell me whilst driving past that Trump will deport me, even though I was born here. Students are being killed for their religious beliefs (thankfully not in my town). All it's doing, as far as I can tell, is bringing fear, uncertainty, and doubt in many people's lives.

I was young when 9/11 happened. And nobody told me what was going on, so I only knew the bits and pieces I would see on the news. What I gained out of it, I'm ashamed to say, was an irrational fear of men with turbans, and women with hijabs. I'd have nightmares of it. I'd be afraid when going to houses of family friends who were Sikh, some of the most peaceful people you'd know, solely because the men in the family wore turbans. Of course, now I know that those are irrational, and have since made my peace with it.

Today, I find myself feeling the same irrational fears of my youth, but instead towards the white southern folk that I probably grew up with. I look at them and wonder, will that person stop me or make fun of me because of the way I look?

I know that you probably don't agree with racism and sexism, just as I know that many of Trump's supporters probably also do not. But there are definitely people in that camp that Trump is not outright calling out. And I really wish he did.

Finally, I did a google search to see if anyone had compiled any links to demonstrate what I've noticed in trump and his supporters. I found a bunch of links compiled in the subreddit /r/EnoughTrumpSpam, so I understand if they aren't exactly the best sources for how I feel about Trump.

Also, going with the electoral college suppresses overall voter turnout in states that are "locks" like California, New York, Oklahoma, etc.

If I live in California, I'm less incentivized to show up for the election because I think of it as a lock. Obviously I should still show up to vote elsewhere on the ballot, but I may not because I won't influence the election.

If we were measuring by popular vote, turnout would be a lot higher and the outcome would, likely, be a better representation of the country.

I once went to a crowed midnight movie showing of the 1950's "It Came From Outerspace". The crowd seemed quite intoxicated and so I missed the first 40 minutes of the movie's dialog because every few seconds someone would stand up and yell SHUT UP and then someone else would yell back from the other side of the theater NO YOU SHUT UP.

It was terrible and amusing at the same time.
How people prioritize issues based on facts is different from whether the facts are true. I agree that you or I can disagree on prioritization of issues. People can also be wrong about which facts they believe. For example, if someone believes that New York City is the capital of the state of New York, they're factually wrong. They're misinformed.

For a more political fact, Barack Obama either was or was not born in the US. People made political decisions based on whether or not this is true. For the argument I'm making, it doesn't matter whether or not it's true. It's that a fact is politically important.

If you're arguing that which facts are true is ultimately relative, I'm not going to chase you down that particular rabbit hole.

Perhaps what I'm saying is obvious and trivial to you, and we're speaking past each other.

Replying to sibling, as nesting level reached:

This is a wonderful example of why human communication isn't only based on the semantic meaning of words. Flirting, sarcasm, irony - all would be lost to someone just parsing words, not being able to understand the finer communication on a subconscious level: Body language, rapport, etc.

I wouldn't be surprised if people who would call someone out on that language have a higher chance on being diagnosed with autism or sociopathy - which in itself isn't bad at all, but it helpts being aware that communication between humans is apparently perceived completely differently by different groups.
I don't see the difference. Rights is just some security-related descriptor of an object, whether that be a human being or a Wi-Fi router or whatever. I generally don't equivocate over word semantics.

I would like to know how its possible to operate this thing without wearing down the nozzle as fast as you're cutting the workpiece. Is the grit fed down the center of a laminar flow of water so it never touches the metal of the nozzle?
Depending on the material being cut there are might be ways. If the weight densities of the abrasive and the material differ enough we can try simple density separation. If the abrasive isn't magnetic while the material is, we can use magnets to do the same. In both cases, the big question would be how much impurities in the abrasive can the machine tolerate. If machine is somewhat tolerant, and impurities do not threaten its mechanisms, these simple methods can be economical for small businesses working with specific materials.

I am really happy that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is taking action and trying to Black Money out of India's economy. I hope this will bring more tax revenue to the country and hopefully the entire nation will move forward.

This makes money more traceable and easy to account.

People bitch about dongles but if you think about it, who would make this progress if Apple doesn't?

Apple is probably the only consumer tech hardware company out there that can do this. I almost think it's their responsibility to push the boundary.

People make fun of the term "Courage" and I thought that was funny at first too. But the more I think about it the more I get what he's trying to say. Right now NO ONE other than Apple has the "courage" to make this decision. Do you think Dell would do it? Samsung? Only Apple has enough influence in the industry to be able to do something like this and NOT lose all their users. If Samsung got rid of all their ports, people would probably ditch them and buy a Lenovo or something. So Samsung cant' do it. Coming back to Apple, I'm an apple user and I have to buy it because it's just much better for me as a developer. And honestly speaking, I don't care about all these dongles arguments and "it's not for a pro" arguments. I'm not buying a device whose primary purpose is to stick in my USB cable. And pros don't complain about their tools.

Anyway Apple knows that if nobody makes this decision, laptops will just stay as some stagnant genre of devices that are only able to do things that people used to do in the 2000s.

In other words, if Apple didn't do this, I think the entire laptop category will just stagnate and be cannibalized by other platforms. See TV as an example.

Hacker News has a policy of avoiding political articles. The internet interprets censorship as damage and routes around it. Therefore Hacker News commenters post off-topic politics.

How many people are employed in the US in healthcare? I would guess way more (10%? 20%?)

We spend about 7% of GDP on the NHS. So it's about right that number.
I really worry about the spread of false information. I see more and more people telling me things IRL that (I think) they get on misinformation websites or Facebook posts. Many people (specially older ones) are not used to check the information that is presented to them.

> If it's part of your job description and the salary you get covers it then I'm not seeing why you should "find a different job."

Two reasons:

1. Your salary doesn't cover night and weekend pages in most first world countries regarding labor law (the US is backwards in this regard, but luckily the economy does well enough at the moment jobs are a plenty).

2. Quality of life. If your job requires on call rotation, interrupting your off-work hours or your sleep, and you're not getting paid enough (<$100K/year), immediately start seeking out another job. It's a sellers market.

I just started freelancing and a lot of people contacted me after seeing my comments on various discussions on HN. They usually go through my blog where I've mentioned about all the XSS vulnerabilities I found in various Indian sites. These posts are very old but still validates my experience and my skills.

Indirectly, a lot of good things have happened to me because of HN as well. Things change very quickly in tech space. Yesterday's anti-patterns are today's best practises and best practises of today will become tomorrow's anti-patterns. I owe a lot to HN which keeps me updated with ever changing tech ecosystem. Being a full-stack developer, I've to keep up with both frontend and backend changes happening everyday. Without HN, I'd not have found out lots of things for sure.
I don't understand it. If they introduce a 2000 rupee note, isn't that exactly the same thing?
I am with you, friend. On reddit's /r/politics, there was a heavy influx of Correct The Record shills, and now that the election is over, things have returned to relatively normal there. With Bezos controlling WaPo, I have no reason to believe things are not being manipulated here as well. The only thing, and maybe good, this election cycle has done was throw out the window the small shred of faith I had in fair and unbiased reporting in this country in critical moments. They throw a puff piece, or a good piece of journalism here and there on side topics, but when it comes to crunch time -- as shown by the WaPo days leading up to the Democratic Primaries, they unleash the full weight of their propaganda machine with no remorse.

The only thing I'll turn to these corrupt giants now is weather events. Can't slant those in any way. We need to break up the 6 corporations that control our media, ASAP.
Right, which is the story everyone cites when it comes to mainstream media failure. I think it's telling that this example is over a decade old now.

I'm not saying that mainstream media outlets report incorrectly at times - they do - but they are dragged over the coals for it, repeatedly. This new generation of Facebook-only news pages are so numerous that they are never called out loudly and clearly.
