> Is there really any common ground?

Some policies, when detached from political partisanship, could be appreciated by voters on both sides.

For instance, for those who believe in human rights and social justice (a supposedly 'left' concern), there's good cause for opposition to China. In terms of jobs and national security, wresting some of China's high-tech manufacturing capability back within US borders would be a boon for employment across 'middle-America' (a supposedly 'right' concern). More importantly, I think both the concerns of human rights, and the employment of your fellow citizens, should not be a partisan issue.

I think most people want the world to be a better place to live, with better human rights, and a wage. Allowing China to gain leverage on the world, despite a track record of human rights abuses, and building a trade deficit with them, isn't really in the general voters interest.

And this is just one example. I'm sure there's more common ground if you look just at policy.
More like we decided we don’t care for their shitty ideas or opinions.
this one is very welcome:

>Yes, there is a ton of common ground

What's an example of some common ground you see, and very roughly how does it happen? For example, we all agree that X is bad, so we will pass a bill to do Y.

Obviously, that example is hypothetical. Any common ground will not involve legislation as the explicitly stated and (very successfully practiced for 6 years) position of one party is a hard-stop on any legislative cooperation.
There’s a slate star codex post that describes research demonstrating that conservative Americans can predict the responses of progressive Americans to political questions, but the converse is not true. It’s not that conservatives are “unwilling to consider” conflicting ideas; in fact, they do a much better job of modeling conflicting ideas than progressives do!

Most of the difference is, I think, not based on factual disagreement, but based on principal disagreements on issues like the personhood of fetuses.
What should "people" do? The loss of faith is driven by four years of the President lying day in, day out. There have been plenty of voices throughout speaking up for truth and institutional respect, but they're baselessly attacked at the highest levels.
I disagree. I see a narcissist and a buffoon when I look at Trump, but none of his behavior validates anything close to the crazed response we see from the primarily left-leaning mainstream media.

It's been a constant stream of catastrophizing from them for the last four years. It was like this during the Bush years as well, though they do seem to have perfected it.
Thanks for the thoughts. We think it could be especially useful in places such as warehouses, auto shops, and garages where there is no air conditioning but get extremely hot in the summer.
uh no. Trumps words dont hold value. Where have you been?

But yeah, the never trumpers words do, theyve been fantastically consistent.
Climate change is just one thing, though. National defense and military activity may be another.

But do you really think it is not the case that most forms of regulation and resource distribution cannot be administered effectively, with some creativity, at the state level? I don't see any reason that 70% of issues can't become local or state issues. (Ignoring the lack of a political will to make that happen, I mean.)
The PS5 adds ray tracing, which was not present in the PS4. This is the largest graphical upgrade and it's pretty obvious when you look at the reflections in the PS5 screen shots.

Also open world streaming that eliminates zoning in games is different from just having faster load screens.

Joy-con like haptics, 3D audio, quieter fans, chat without headset are a few other non-speed changes vs. PS4. Activity cards may be the biggest UI change.
Some very offbeat places like Papua New Guinea, Fiji, and Madagascar(!) have lots of cable landings. Would it be safe to say that they have excellent Internet connectivity? I mean good bandwidth and reliable service, although latency to Europe or the USA may be high due to distance.

Any hospital that does that for doctors is probably a bad one.. no way the doctors would sign on to a bad deal like that. Nurses however always get a raw deal.
Don't we first need to undo the damage that Trump has done? I can see getting to a point where neither side acts unilaterally, but only after things have been balanced to actually be in the center between the sides.
Just more evidence that large platform and device owners will try to gate-keep and landgrab as much as they can and try to destroy the open web and force competitors into financial agreements to collect economic rent.

There finally needs to be regulation on this. No banning of end user services as long as they're legal, I don't want a phone maker controlling what I do on the internet. It's ridiculous. Microsoft in the 90s doesn't even compare to this, it's on an entirely different level. If competition regulation would actually still exist we'd tear apple a new one.
Thx - unsuccessfully tried to find it earlier... .

You're right, (directly) not so extreme as mentioned upstream.

At the same time I think that mentioning "archiving" is in my opinion very dangerous especially when stated by a politically exposed person. I don't like that at all.

I don't think that his/her (upstream) fears derived by that tweet are unfounded.

EDIT: btw., I think that in general the "spirit" after these elections should not be to create further divisions (persecution in this case), but to unify and to find a middle ground between parties to make things work.
> You read the volume of news I do day after day and you’ll find some humor in how the common vocabulary morphs in unison across the channels, and it’s notable when it happens. “Widespread fraud” is right there with “mostly peaceful”.

I don't know what you were trying to say, but you said nothing if substance. It reads like a red herring that desperately tries to conflate the world begging the Trump campaign to substantiate any of their myriad of claims regarding their so-called massive nation-wide wave of voter fraud, which succeeded their initial absurd and ridiculous announcement of having won the election, with other propaganda tropes.

> But again, why spend your time arguing that there’s nothing to see here rather than advocating for improving the transactional integrity of the voting process?

The only problems that can be fixed are those which exist in the realm of reality.

Where is the massive wave of voter fraud that supposedly robbed Trump of his election? If that problem really exists, shouldn't you be worried about getting to know the evidence of its existence in order to ensure the same thing doesn't happen again?

Because otherwise these wild election fraud claims jus sound like a desperate red herring fabricated by a childish irresponsible man who decided to throw a tantrum instead of admitting defeat.
Hey Alex, I made a landing page breakdown video of your project, highlighting what I liked and what I didn't like about the way you present your product. I think there's invaluable feedback that you can get from my "first" time impression of it. I try to be concise, honest and quick. Let me know what you think? Here's the video -> https://youtu.be/XeG62ZKRc20
Without knowing anything about you personally except the distribution of intelligence here on HN and the way you talk about how much smarter you are than these yokels, you are probably not smart enough to have an outsize economically valuable model of the world and your “facts” are probably low-value memes you picked up in school and on television.
When there is an externality, of course the federal government can get involved. But does the majority of federal regulation really happen in domains where there would be inevitable externalities without it?
If the outcome is the same how does it matter which way it’s annotated?
It's a ridiculous and absurd stretch to say that Twitter poses any threat to American sovereignty but Trump claiming an election he lost isn't a threat to that same sovereignty.
Hillary was extremely in favor of the Trans-Pacific Partnership, which was regarded as a very bad deal here on HN. She came out as skeptical of it during her campaign, but that was hard to believe given that she was responsible for it under the Obama administration.

She wanted to strengthen Obamacare, but was against a single-payer option. I'm sure people will quibble, but I'm confident health premiums would have gone up faster under Hillary.

Hillary Clinton was in bed with Wall St firms. A Clinton presidency would have risked undoing a lot of the regulatory protections that have been put in place after the dot-com and 2007 financial collapses.

Compared with Trump, Hillary Clinton is tremendously China-friendly. She would not have countered Xi's expansionist policies.

On more niche (but IMHO important) issues like space policy, Trump-Pence has actually been extremely good, better than any president in living memory. Hillary, on the other hand, considered expenditures on space to be a waste of money.

-----

There are plenty of arguments a reasonable person can come up with for not wanting a Hillary Clinton presidency in 2016, with or without the advantage of hindsight. Only through a deeply blue-tinted partisan lens could you say a Hillary term would have been objectively better on all accounts.

As I said way up thread, the DNC is as much at fault as anyone else for continuing to field deeply unpopular and uninspiring candidates, while simultaneously ignoring working class concerns.
To me, a more plausible explanation is that Trump is uniquely unpopular with black voters.
I can acknowledge the statistics. Can you acknowledge that they're often misappropriated and decontextualized for the purposes of propaganda[1]?

The article is actually useful, despite the annoying introduction line of `a few million poorer`. People could stop reading the article for whatever reasons.

There are "real" companies using Perl presently...Booking and DuckDuckGo and others. Looking at Redmonk, Tiobe, other surveys...Perl isn't at the top of the heap by any measure but it also stubbornly refuses to die. I write Perl every day and frankly don't care if people think it is "dead", and even I am surprised at how prominent it figures in language surveys, still.

Most of the key libraries I use are updated regularly. Perl itself is under active development with regular releases.

Quite ironic considering the armed Trump supporters threatening the democracy of the country right now.
Just because Trump is/says something dumb doesn't mean his words don't have value.

A random person on twitter saying "never trump" doesn't have the same value.
Well if you vote for Trump you like what he says or it doesn't bother you enough, then that speaks volumes. Like when he called Mexicans rapists/murderers/drug dealers, or when he made fun of a disabled reporter, or said a women was too ugly to rape. Trump is just a horrible person. I'm German, a and left wing European.(I used to live in the US also). I don't like democrats politically. But if I could have, I would've voted for them as I view them not as destructive as republicans. But, even if Trump was as left as Sanders, one of the few American politicians I actually like, I wouldn't vote for him.
Ah, gotcha. Then I did miss the point.

I do think it's benefited other nations, but -- getting more into personal opinion -- I also think the "help other nations" argument is mostly used to justify cheapening wages. If companies were paying foreign workers the same rates that they would have paid US workers I'd be more empathetic to the argument. But something about the fact that the top 90th percentile of Americans has seen huge gains in the last 40 years, while the middle to bottom percentile has seen neutral or losses [1] raises flags to me that the push towards globalization was selfishly motivated. I know it's a huge inference to say the stagnating wages are caused by globalization, but realistically I would say it's the combination of outsourced labor/manufacturing, immigration, rise of women in the workforce, rise of minorities in the workforce, and automation. Most of these are positive changes, but I still think the average blue collar worker suffered a cost that the hyper-wealthy elite did not, so at the moment I don't see the push for globalization as a very selfless initiative.

> I mean, I think we've pretty well established that crime isn't genetic. It's environmental.

In reality, twin studies and adoption studies have shown a large genetic component.

We don't even need twin studies to know this. It must be true unless you're a young-earth creationist. If there wasn't genetic variability in criminality, humans wouldn't have been capable of evolving to be so much less violent than other primates.

(And of course, disparities in male/female behavior is obviously biological.)

> I haven't studied the demographic data at length recently, but fairly sure that your assertion does not hold for high income blacks.

In fact, it does hold in higher income brackets too. And I'd bet whites are more violent than Asians after controlling for income, too.
> The argument is to increase the integrity of elections,

I find it terribly odd that all this concern about the sanctity of the electoral process only dawn upon the Trump administration after a) realizing they were going to lose the election, b) having spent months trying to sabotage the election by mounting a campaign to reject a voting method that was known to be used primarily by the opposition.

And still, in spite of all the explicit accusations of the existence of a massive fraud campaign, they still cannot find any single shred of evidence to support it. Hell, their initial claim about their observers being barred from observing ended up being materialized in simply wanting to have their observers closer to ballot boxes.
If our society took a chill pill with all the 'stranger danger' fear mongering, we could simply let kids walk themselves to school, as was once common not too long ago.
People had a lot of success buying cheap amps from AliExpress based on a known chipset, like the TPA3250 mentioned in the article, and change the few components that matter.

Usually, it is about changing the cheap knockoff caps by proper audio-grade ones.

Now you are left with the 90% of the work, that is getting a good power supply ;) The easy way is battery power, but then you need to charge the batteries. Linear power supplies are big, expensive and inefficient, but relatively easy to get right.

Switching power supplies are tricky as they tend to introduce all sorts of noise, in fact, they work almost in the same way as the amplifier itself, so you are basically powering an amplifier with an amplifier, both with their own feedback loops.
Well, they've been presenting him as a fascist authoritarian for four years, so if that were true I'd be inclined to believe their response was appropriate.

The vast majority of arrests are from small drug offences. Unfortunately there just aren't enough actual criminals to justify the amount of money they want.
I think it's useful to think of studies like this as a MVP. They're relatively cheap and fast. If they give a null result, you've failed fast. If they give a non-null, then you can invest in further study and iterate.

YMMV, but I find that Safari uses dramatically fewer local resources on my computer than Chrome does, for the same workload. Chrome can’t remotely handle the number of tabs I typically keep open (it chews up all available memory, and hangs or crashes). Even for lighter browsing usage, Chrome chews battery faster and slows the rest of my computer down. Overall Safari is the most usable, followed by Firefox.

In various numerical computing in Javascript projects/experiments I’ve done, Safari is typically fastest, but not always. At any rate, it is clear that all of these teams have done very extensive optimization work, and all of the modern browsers are engineering marvels.

But there are a lot of weird nooks and corners in all of the browsers when it comes to Javascript performance.
With 150 million ballots both sides could easily find individuals that may have had legitimate issues with voting. As to something systematic they don’t seem to have found anything.
This is fascinating and leaves me with so many questions. What do these cables look like? How are they made? How do they lay them? Are they in sections? How are they connected? How much maintenance do they require? How much data can they carry?
Those positions don't work the way people think they do. Some CEOs have to spend obscene amounts of money defending themselves from frivolous lawsuits and people constantly screwing around with their lives. You should be looking to see how much the CEO is actually keeping, not how much they are making.
Trump wasn't censored though? So what are you discussing?
Nice! You got me to check out your website :)
The guy had armies of white supremacist supporters and advisers. He told right-wing extremists to “stand by” on national TV.

Every time you gloss over this, you give a pass to it and to those who knew about it and supported him anyway.
Yes, you're understanding is it's a hot commodity and an achievement like no other but what I don't understand is what lead you to that conclusion. Even looking nationwide (not just at a battleground state in a hot election year) over the last 50 years I can't find anything backing your claims https://www.pewresearch.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/FT_17... particularly in the last 20 years. Again I'm curious how you've come to your conclusion not trying to understand what your conclusion was, are we looking at different data? Are you thinking out of eligible population or total population instead of registered population?

Either way voter registration and turnout gets reviewed pretty heavily both before and after each election, I'm just curious what is making you think either is out of the ordinary this year.
Thanks for that, I read that book when it came out but forgot the name. Every time the cable map was linked I think about that book. Some great stories in that book about tapping the cables and how used to be a relatively common occurrence for subs to crash into each othe because they were running silent.
> Like when he called Mexicans rapists/murderers/drug dealer

I think this validates OP's point. He never said all Mexicans are rapists etc, he was speaking about border security and describing the people illegally entering the country through the Southern Border. One of many soundbites spun into a scandal by the media and used to dehumanize him.

His supporters understood what he meant, his detractors took the media spin hook, line, and sinker.
In most cases you're likely just engaging in rhetorical volleys with the other person.

Until someone trusts you to handle their concerns and vulnerabilities with care, you aren't going to get anywhere.

The relationship is paramount in communication, and it's the one thing that social media (and the pandemic) has most effectively eliminated from our daily lives. In this particular case I think we all need to 'act local and think global'...stop sparring on the Internet and try to make inroads to mutual understanding with those that you can see and hear.
"Racist" mentioned in this thread dozens of times along with fascists all the usual derogatory buzzwords. Communist and woke both worryingly have less mentions considering the context. Bolshevism suprisingly has got no mentions considering what the YCombinator Alumni Michael Simon tweeted and the platform he set up.

Anywho, I digress. I believe those in here to be intelligent and educated so I would ask you to take your partisan hats off for a minute if you're honest and consider when AZ goes Trump this is the time for you to start freaking out.

The mainstream media has been extremely irresponsible and the forthcoming riots when this is overturned are going to lay squarely on their feet. I would also ask those of you who have a conscience to be less irresponsible than journalists over these coming weeks until December in an attempt to reduce said damage.

I say this because if you think Biden is going to be your president you haven't been watching carefully enough.

Also dang if you will please change the title. Biden hasn't won anything yet - as you know the media doesn't declare winners esp not given their woeful conduct and bogus calls (AZ), states have to certify before a winner is declared. Also please ask PG to be more responsible with his tweets if he will listen. This will reflect badly on all involved.

Thankyou.
