I think the point is like Musk, these people hardly refuse government subsidizes. You might argue they provide a service, they are not getting a handout, but it's still paid by the same taxes they want to get rid off at first place.

> Because the laws are unjust. There is clearly an immigration problem in the United States and I personally don't believe tracking and deporting he people already here will ever contribute to a successful solution.

Then change the laws, but in order to do that you need to get your own people elected.

It's funny how ultimately the camps that allegedly is for a strong federal government would be better off with a weak "confederate style" federation. If the federal government wouldn't be in charge of immigration policies then whatever state you live in could set whatever immigration laws you want.

It's also curious how only in US immigration laws are seen as as immoral. Try to move to Canada and see how hard it is to survive there illegally. Yet Canada is somehow seen as the heaven of progressiveness somehow ...

Here is the thing, the more illegal immigrants you accept and defend, the harder it is for the people who actually want to respect US laws and go through the official process. That's the only thing that is immoral here. But you don't care about these people.

isn't it a felony to use a stolen SSN? there is no such thing as a fake SSN.

Counterfeit products are destroyed, they are never auctioned. A court cannot order the auction of known counterfeit items, thats just crazy talk. And one cannot resell a counterfeit product, that's illegal.

So, what does he think about Emacs?

A technical question. Does using other format like XML or XHTML make rendering faster given the same amount of nodes + styles in the page? Can it help make browsers render a page faster?

I really love traits in Rust. It's in my opinion the best way to implement interfaces. I'm really thinking about writing a toy language that looks like Rust 99% but without the borrow checker. The ownership thing annoys me. I know it helps creating secure programs but I'd be fine with a language that has Rust syntax/generics/traits/pattern matching with garbage collection. My goal isn't to create a C replacement, but a better Go. Go gets concurrency and syntax right but its type system is shitty. Go is a missed opportunity.

This. A lot of news outlets in Europe actually do that. Only paid subscribers can comment. It's a good compromise. It reduces trolling AND finances moderation.

> they just avoid reading the comments

This. But usually when the content is good and thoughtful ,(AKA void of controversy or outrage), the comment can be useful. But otherwise frankly Youtube comment is a worst place than reddit itself.

> It might be too late for devs to trust them again,

Stupid mistake from Twitter.

Basically Twitter has a long history of shutting down API access to any product or client that becomes remotely popular. Did they think being unpopular among developers would be something positive ? It's like they didn't realise ALL these twitter clients actually helped create MORE content on Twitter. That was stupid.

Thinking about it, Twitter barely evolved since its inception. At least changes are barely noticeable on the website in terms of features or UX. And I agreee with you, it's impossible to follow a discussion on Twitter. It is almost impossible to know who is answering to whom when tweets pile up.

Twitter can make money, all it has to do is reduce its operational costs first. Then launch new products to grow. Twitter isn't going to become the new ad-sense or Facebook if it isn't a platform at first place. And you don't become a platform if your product isn't relevant to a lot of people.

People use Google for search. People use Facebook to connect with friends and family. Who needs a Twitter account aside from journalists and attention-seekers? my grand mother doesn't need a twitter account. Nobody cares about her cooking a chicken or planting cucumbers in the garden BUT her closest relatives. And there is already Facebook for that.

What you say makes no sense whatsoever. Go doesn't come with a copy of nginx in its standard library. Go std lib is not equivalent to what ngnix provides. You gophers are so obsessed by doing everything with Go it's unbelievable. Go is a tool,just like nginx, it's not a silver bullet.

> How is filling out struct fields more complex

It's also about reproducing all the business logic provided by nginx, not just configuration. You can't pretend like net/http package gives you everything ngnix provides, that's a lie.

It's great that you don't need Clojurescript or even JSX to do that. You can write plain ES5 and get the same result. And it would stay readable for most.

America has this weird obsession with race and dividing everything by race. Since when "Asian" is a race? It's so weird that people in US need to choose their race on a form when applying for college or even for a job, or on a census. So you can't be just american, you need to be Asian american or something american, like being american is not enough to constitute a nationality or an identity.
