Super happy customer of Fastmail of 7 years now.

It’s a joy to use. Fast, responsive, and reliable. No pointless redesigns or 10 second loading screens like gmail.

Another scam IPO for another scam tech company.

The fucking hot dog stand at my neighborhood park is in better financial shape than these toxic scam businesses like Uber or We.

> shouldn’t we prioritize on skill instead of using a lottery

Why? It's not a prioritization based on employer needs or what employers want. Obviously if one has a degree they enjoy being a protected class, and if they don't have a degree they don't like being discriminated against. At least a lottery gave equal opportunity.

I also want to point out that this policy is not what companies want. They want the removal of sponsorship requirements and quotas. They generally want to be free to hire who they want.

> country has the right to determine what kind of immigrants it prefers

Yeah, obviously. You prefer we discriminate based on college education. Why? Don’t people without masters degrees deserve equal treatment? Equal opportunity?

> The country shouldn’t take in for employment a bunch of people it doesn’t need should it?

The country isn’t a person. If a company wants to hire someone, then obviously they do “need” them.

This is discrimination, and nothing to celebrate. People without degrees deserve equal treatment. People who want to work lower-paid jobs deserve equal treatment.

This is a sad day for the USA, as we move further from the principles that made us great.

This is discrimination, and nothing to celebrate. People without degrees deserve equal treatment. People who want to work lower-paid jobs deserve equal treatment.

America should stand for liberty, personal responsibility, and equality of opportunity. Not racism and elitism.

Our immigration laws continue to be a stain on this great nation.

I was hoping for a comparison between OS X and Linux, but the article is just an overview of the OP’s Linux apps.

The title is misleading, as there’s really nothing here about MacBooks. But good to know tiling window managers are still being used.
