How is the statistic of lower dipping fertility rates inside Muslim countries of relevance when talking about: > the "breeding like rabbits" image that politicians use to drum up fear among uninformed voters The…
The post that I was replying to was talking exactly about fertility rates of second, third and beyond generation immigrants in Netherlands. And what was found is that females from south-east Asia had a big drop in…
What it is pussyfooting around is that there is not that drastic of a drop in fertility rates of muslims. I guess it shouldn't be hard to conceive where Islamic parties start having a major voice in elections because of…
Consider an individual John from Texas with a total population of N. Initially John's chances of getting a job: 1/N Now, with the arrival of new immigrant, John's chances: 1/(N+1) i.e. he's worse off. Sure it turned out…
You can't win elections if you actually start talking about most contributing factors. In that case, very soon you'll be discussing immigration as your most important point and start sounding like Trump. Woops!
And that period to get assimilated and become net positive might be a period of +- few decades which is an insanely long time in today's world of super fast moving money and economic conditions and 4 year hyper partisan…
That is true but we're talking about the still remaining low skilled jobs that simply could not be outsourced. Now with a high number of low skilled immigrants competing with natives for those same remaining low skilled…
I wonder how much effect immigration has had on the matter of inequality. I'm going off these assumptions: -> Lesser immigration would've led to a higher GDP/capita figure for US. -> More resources to subsidize college…
> clearly this is no "hack" to win elections because it is not working as you state. Like I just said, it's working extremely reliably. Look at California, the opposition is decimated there not by the merit of liberal…
I should clarify, I meant: higher numerical intake limits for immigrants to developed countries. Basically, most of the liberal parties have found this "hack" to win elections. Where they wouldn't be able to win…
News items like these are then used as fodder for higher immigration limits so that the liberal parties keep getting elected further, even as they enjoy less and less support from their already existing citizens.
What is a proto?
I hope they move on to using Matrix. I think the successor to IRC ought to be not slack or any other closed source chat app but an open source one.
Yeah sure, if I'm a huge enterprise and I want to run something like elasticsearch in house, I have 2 choices: 1. Get elasticsearch delivered as an inscrutable binary blob 2. Get elasticsearch delivered as binary blob…

Yeah, slice it whichever way, but this basically looks shitty on AWS. At the end of the day, Open source developers need to be able to put food on the table. What AWS is doing here, is like a logging company, recklessly…
I wonder if anyone here would agree to pay a small subscription fee, say $2/month, to get a text only version of websites. No to minimal images, no to almost minimal CSS flash/bloat/design. Pretty close to reading…
While I haven't used a system76 Thelio, while we're discussing System76, I can speak about a Galago pro that I bought from system76. Noteworthy, because I was one of those Mac refugees who needed a non-mac machine now…
