Quite. Moreover and with apologies to Marx, where is this 10x coming from? The simple fact is that it's the fruit of other people's labour that is being appropriated.

OK, but look at the context - out of nowhere we have obvious diversity at all costs propaganda. I'm watching the BBC's Christmas trailer now which involves a brown skinned single father and his daughter. This in no way represents the average in the UK in fact the UK is almost 90% white - so what message is the BBC trying to send? Am I one of the bad guys to recognise the colour of the skin? Because you can bet that whoever came up with the idea certainly had race at the front of their minds. Is the UK really so racist that we deserve to be subjected to this type of manipulation? Is it beyond the realms of possibility that the people behind this agitprop are in fact the very same nefarious forces you mention?

You know you are talking about something different.

Wow, liberal fascism distilled, pretty much a call to arms for the destruction of individual cultures and global imposition of wrongthink. South Park's Death Camp of Tolerance comes to mind. I await the introduction of the reeducation gulags.

Edit: I'm just amazed that people cannot see this guy is blantantly arguing for the exact thing he claims to despise:

'Meanwhile, give the right-of-way to people driving cars with the “Mean people suck” bumper sticker, and remind everyone that we’re in this together against Lord Voldemort and House Slytherin.'

He goes on at length about why us and them is bad and then LITERALLY ARGUES FOR an us and them attitude :|

For a grad level position I'd argue it's just about acceptable - outside of the big tech companies UK salaries aren't that amazing, and it could probably be a nice stepping stone onto something bigger and better. Usual story in SE UK though - on that salary it would likely be a long and dull road of saving hard even to afford a shoebox, and patriotism doesn't pay the bills.

The Running Man has the same idea (without the porn aspect).

I selected PostgreSQL for a geo project recently. Still haven't got my head around tuning, but apart from that I've found it great to use. I use psycopg2 to connect from Python. No nasty surprises in use, and found that all my pidgin SQL translated easily. Also worth knowing that ogr2ogr supports PostgreSQL and is an awesome tool.

Some obvious discrepancies around permitted speech on this topic. Say you like traditional British values and think they are being undermined by immigration: "Racist! Xenophobe! There are no traditional British values anymore! Go back to the Daily Mail little Englander!"

Point out that Israel or Japan have immigration policy that are highly exclusive: wind blowing, tumbleweed..

This reminds of a trend I read about a while back where the rewards accrue to an increasingly small number of high profile people in a field while the majority just get poorer.

Stop avoiding the question: do you honestly believe there was not FUD from the remain side? I suggested you google brexit scaremongering to enlighten yourself. Did you do that? You are obviously a troll :)

With you on this. I've never bought a new PC, always eBay or self build.

'First Round Capital reports that its investments in companies with a female founder have posted 63 percent better returns than men-only firms.' so what? Correlation does not imply causation. Also it might be that female founded firms are less risky, and so less likely to generate mega returns. Or it could be the opposite. Point is we don't know and the stat is useless on its own.

'This man naturally assumed that he knew more about it than I did. It was his ingrained view of women — a view that’s costing all of us.'. This is nothing more than an assertion.

Finally I think only the most naïve or faux-naïve would be surprised to find that Wall Street contains some pretty serious/insane characters. Isn't that kind of the nature of the beast? I bet there are plenty of men that have to deal with terrible behaviour also. That's not to excuse any of this behaviour, but I'm sure the idea that if you are a man you are guaranteed an easy ascent to the upper reaches is risible.
