You should search FDR's views on Japanese and Jewish immigration and his writings in the 1920's and later. It should make it fairly clear, and reveal his views of Jewish immigration and hence why very few German refugees were accepted. Even during the war it's been revealed he had negative views of Jews and Asians.

The picture of FDR making an uncharacteristic mistake is part of the whitewash.
Gee, I really screwed up there with reading and comprehending. I don't know what I was thinking. You're right, of course.

As for the machines, we have produced and tested a beta batch against the relevant legislation and a number of cases. We have now the capabilities to build 2 machines per day. I can surely take note of your expression of interest and come back to you at a later stage? Thanks again.

Is that an American or a British thing? I know quite a few diehard fans of Wodehouse in India. One of them even sent me transcripts of his radio broadcasts. The broadcasts seemed entirely innocuous to me. And my friends who don't like Wodehouse's writings are not aware of the broadcasts at all, suggesting that that's not the reason they don't read his works.
Of course it's not OK, but it's not really shocking either. The vast majority of people have accepted the non-ownership ideas that have been pushed for the last 30 years. Because these phones are potentially dangerous, people accept it as reasonable.

This is just another small step toward total non-ownership, and the destruction of private property rights. Kitchen fires burn down more homes than an S7 but we don't ban people having kitchens. There was many small steps leading up to this and there will be many after it and people will be happy to give up all personal property rights.
Not to mention WebVR, Web Payments, the Presentation API, the Gamepad API, and the Web Speech API.
> No, it's real, just not as real as we like to think. Between "imprison people of Japanese ancestry for the rest of the war, then free them" and "imprison people of Jewish ancestry, then kill them", there is a real moral difference. They are both wrong, but they are not equal.

Of course, but Germany belongs to the "West", too. I think GP alluded to e.g. human rights in China.

The growth market for GPUs is GPGPU and servers. And Linux represents a large portion of the programming and server communities.

More to the point, as soon as you support Linux at all then it doesn't matter who has more share, it's still less work to do the above than have to maintain another translation layer.

I am surprised by the same thing. We have a legal process for crossing those borders, and if you circumvent that process you are a criminal. How is that controversial?

Separately, if you believe the process is bad, or borders should be open, or whatever -- by all means, fight for that using the frameworks we have.

Not sure how this really relates to "robots raising children" though. More just having a laugh with tech that young kids sort-of understand but don't quite grasp the limits of yet.

I remember as a kid we got a Commodore 128 computer and I was teaching myself to write BASIC programs. I had two younger brothers (I was maybe 9 years old, they would've been 6 or 7) and while they generally grasped "computers", they didn't really know the difference between what they saw in movies and what our little home computer could do.

After seeing Wargames or something like that, I wrote a program that simulated dialing into "the government" and displaying menu options. Even had the Hollywood-style one character at a time by adding delays to my PRINT commands.

Basically it was just a bunch of menu options you could pick from but in the end you end up selecting an option that commands it to launch nukes or something like that. Like I said, I was a kid so my understanding of things wasn't very subtle either.

Still, it scared the shit out of my brothers before my mom told me to quit screwing with them. Hell, we didn't even have a modem hooked up to the thing... Mom was a big no-fun.

I don’t believe in work-life balance. I believe in Five Buckets
A trade off between collision potential vs. speed. Sometimes you need speed more than you need cryptographic levels of collision avoidance.

For example, finding unique files on the file system. After looking at size, first and last bytes, it would be better to filter quickly on an imperfect hash (with, say, a 1 in 1^56 chance of collision) than slowly on a perfect hash (with a 1 in 1^256 chance).
quicksave/quickload encourages bad game design. Look at games with save anywhere abilities that include elements of chance like Skyrim and Fallout. So you are able to pickpocket and use charm in these games but because you can save anywhere does anyone ever live with the chance these things fail?

There are some authors where you can read their work only once, it's just not fun the second time around. Wodehouse is the opposite of that, the way he strings words together is just laugh out loud fun every time you read them.

It's things like these that make me kinda regret going into tech. I should've gone into accounting or something like that instead.

I'm 32, and while I'm an excellent mid-level developer, I don't think I'm ever going to be principal or possibly even senior material. And everything I've heard from everyone is that is that by the time you're in your mid-40s, you better either a) go into management or b) hit principal or architect level or you'll be unemployable. I'm probably going to end up unemployable in 20 years, and that frightens me.

As problems stated, there's probably a bit of arbitrage going on behind the scenes. However, Texas also has a well connected grid across the rather large state that is only weakly connected to other grids. There's a lot of wind in Texas and a lot of wind power. On an average day 12% of the entire state is powered by wind. Some days it's 40%. Sometimes wind produces so much energy that the spot price goes negative and wind farms are paid to disconnect so they don't overrun the transmission system.
Somewhat unintuitively (to me before starting at least), finding contract work wasn't a challenge I've experienced yet. Even without promotion, I get more requests for work than one person can commit to while offering dev services at market rate.

The challenges I've experienced relate more to the business and administrative functions and in general optimizing the amount of time spent on non-billable things. One analogous challenge a contractor faces is figuring out how to make the jump from software contracting into technical consulting.

From an economics point of view, we should allow the free movement of labor (people) because we already allow the free movement of capital (money) across borders. If my understanding is correct, this is one of the pillars of the European Union.

However, I think looking at it as a basic human right is more appropriate. Restricting people crossing borders is simply institutional racism. Countries are granting permission to enter/not enter based on the person's race. If this were any other context, people would be screaming racism. But because it's become so typical over the past 150 years, nobody calls it for what it is anymore.

Great example of someone justifying engineer driven design over user driven design. Not understanding at all why it was made that way in the first place.
Many people are working multiple jobs to get by because a single income simply isn't enough. The uber drivers are not being forced to drive for uber

I see a contradiction in those two statements, and a direct relation to the article. "Not being forced to drive for Uber" seems to ignore a lot, starting with why the drivers took the job in the first place (which your own comment even stated).
I agree - I started at 38 (41 now) and work on a team as an iOS dev where we have mobile, backend and machine learning engineers - ALL - under 30. My interview was blind, so no one knew I was old - or black. They couldn't discriminate if they wanted to. That said, I couldn't imagine using all the tools on this list to stay relevant. I find reading HN, Apple docs and related blogs, books on Swift and iOS, and just thinking about tech time-consuming but enough to keep me up-to-date or even ahead of my teammates. I do appreciate what he said - I don't image FB would hire me - but Fuck them. Do your own thing then. That's why I got into tech - to stay employed long enough to create for myself. Still, if you have the right experience, someone will hire you if the big names (or startups) won't.

> You can always wait for an answer but if you need more memory than you have you are out of luck.

I'm not a practical programmer, so I may be off base, but it seems to me that one could as well say "You can always buy more memory, but if the answer takes more time than you have to wait then you're out of luck." (In both cases, super-rapid growth won't take too long to exhaust the age, and the information capacity, of the universe.) Is it really clear that it's better to err on the side of more time in the time / space trade-off?
Don't do this on your domain. Have a separate domain for user content (and, if the content isn't public, better have many separate domains and distribute the content between them; maybe even have a per-user domain). Browsers can be convinced that a particular resource is an html page even if the content-type is wrong.

Ukrainians who lived in Crimea got full Russian citizenship too, but I'm not sure if that makes it fair and a done deal for the rest of the Ukrainians.

But I thought my other point was more important. Most Americans are newcomers to the Americas, a few generations tops. Most Mexicans are not, and nobody really asked them before erecting new borders on their lands.
Please. You pick a lowest-common-denominator language like Java or Golang so that you have a large pool of cheap, semi-sentient code monkeys to hire from.

If you choose LISP, you're actually going to have to expend a little bit of effort on identifying, recruiting, and retaining actually competent people. That's a problem when you're looking to put butts-in-seats (as is the case in my industry: defense).

I'm not optimistic about the kinds of approaches mentioned fostering "ubiquitous parallelism." Just as a better compiler, language, or implementation technique won't make a bubble-sort into a quicksort, I don't expect them to turn essentially sequential programs into parallel ones. We need new kinds of algorithms, not better programming techniques. Being explicit and telling the compiler all about isolated pockets of dependencies does not ultimately defeat their constraints on the overall program. I remember a statement by Knuth in an interview[1]: "Let me put it this way: During the past 50 years, I’ve written well over a thousand programs, many of which have substantial size. I can’t think of even five of those programs that would have been enhanced noticeably by parallelism or multithreading."

It works fine for members of my family and extended family that have Ubuntu installs on Intel GPUs. Light gaming and more importantly, hardware accelerated YouTube works just fine.

I'd be willing to bet that most people really only want windows to appear quickly, scrolling in web pages to work well, and to watch videos online.

Lots of casual gaming has moved to mobile, and never left the consoles. Hardcore gaming -- not most people.

Believe me I know his behavior was most likely inappropriate I'm just not sure what label should be applied.

If you think I misrepresented the labeling of him I might agree with it some more research (which is difficult).

If I offended you by not taking a more severe label I apologize. I'm not often very descriptive.

Most of the founding fathers of the country were exceptionally devious (rapeist and extremely sexist) but we rarely apply labels to them. We probably should.

I dislike NoSql because the connotation that relational databases are "bad/old", and this is better. Because this look like "Say NO to Paxos!". NO is a strong word.

Awesome description of the fragmentation and browser cache size problems that prevent these shared CDNs for common JS/CSS/Whatever files from providing optimal benefits the vast majority of the time. The challege is that oeople still say "well, even if it only works some of the time, that's OK."

It's not. Because does this hurts page load times.

You are having to create a new, cold, TCP connection to go fetch 50-100KB of CSS/JS/whatever from some random server. Which even in HTTP/1.1 is usually slower than just bundling that into your own CSS/JS/Whatever. HTTP/2 makes it even more so.

Just store and serve these things yourselves.
This is entirely supposition on my part, from someone far too young to have lived through any of it, but I suspect it's less that Japanese Americans looked different, and more that Japan was a non-Christian culture, which made it easier to dehumanize people of Japanese descent.

The Nazis might have been evil but at least they were "like us" in that they shared a common heritage, religion and linguistic root with Americans. Japan, meanwhile, was portrayed in American propaganda as an inscrutable hivemind run by a primitive death-cult.

You can see the same strange mistrust of non-Christian culture applied to Muslims in America today - even though the vast majority in the world are not violent terrorists, many Americans suspect that Islam taints and "radicalizes" the mind with evil in a way that Christianity doesn't.

If he's "not sure what else one would do," he needs to think bigger. I'm amazed that America seems so locked in to maximum laissez-faire that the idea that UBI is the actual solution has become remotely popular.

When truck drivers are replaced by self-driving cars, they won't see their monthly allowance as a benefit. People want to have control over their lives far more than they just want to survive. Sure, you have income. You can spend it on more plastic goods sold by the company that took your job, more consumer electronics sold by the company that took your job, more fast food from the company that took your job, all delivered on a fleet of drones from the company that took your job, while trying not to piss off the government infested with lobbyists from the company that took your job, lest they cut off your allowance and leave you for dead. Cycle that money right back to the same rich guys who claim to function on meritocracy and judge every applicant into their world by their ability to speak the arbitrary jargon, bolstered by a nice degree, the right level of expensive casual dress, and your race and gender. Or you could buy a gun.

Giving people comfort without giving them power is a recipe for revolution, and Silicon Valley doesn't get that they'll be the first against the wall; they'll still be wringing their hands and wondering why people voted for Trump when neoliberalism could give them so many cool new phones. Very few people in America are actually starving or on the streets; far more are committing suicide, either directly or through slow drug addiction, not because they don't have the means to survive but because they don't have the means to control their own lives, create their own future for themselves and their families, have the level of basic dignity that a solution like "here's your allowance, now go back to school and study hard" will never provide. Collective ownership, working democracy, a real attempt at a post-scarcity society is "what else one would do."

Welfare is important. UBI could be a fine way of making sure people don't starve to death. That hasn't been the major issue in the developed world for a long time now.

And that would necessarily be bad?
It sounds like you have a pretty good idea what your next steps are already.

First, talk to a health professional who can understand and address the nuances of your situation better than anyone on HN.

Second, just consider that there is no perfect tech stack and most people don't know all of the pieces to a company's stack when they join. Perhaps there is a certain language or framework you're passionate about. I would encourage you to seek out companies using that one piece of tech through AngelList, Stack Overflow Jobs, etc.

A third thing to consider is that once you have some experience on paper, it's a huge boost for your next job. Side projects count too.
