Ask HN: What is a great project based Rails tutorial for 2025?

This guy had a green card and no past crimes. They're also deporting refugees that are here under protection. What they're doing is lawless and immoral.

I'm 100% for deporting people that have overstayed their visas and are working. They are workers without labor protections and essentially slave labor and when they get hurt on the job their medical bills are payed by you. (In this case the government should make those that were supporting them pay their medical bills)

Please someone explain to me why this is legal, acceptable, constitutional. Explain it like I'm 5.

To which this do you refer?

Um...the part where an 82 year old man with a green card and four grandchildren and was accepted as a political refugee is deported when renewing his green card and his wife, family, and children are allowed to think he is dead when he's actually in a foreign hospital. I am from Allentown, this hits close to home.

C'mon, I don't think the parent was saying "explain 1 of the 3", it's needlessly picky to ask this question.

The article is about one man. The comment OP responded to mentioned “deporting people that have overstayed their visas and are working.” I wanted to clarify what they were asking about.

> Leon was granted political asylum in 1987 after surviving torture at the hands of Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet’s regime, according to his granddaughter, Nataly, who asked that her surname not be used because she fears U.S. government retribution against her and her relatives.

The irony here is beyond fucked up.

America has finally reached the Ihre Papiere, bitte. of its racist golf clubization development cycle. According to the proponents of the Strauss-Howe generational "theory" (hypothesis), expect the self-destructive crisis to last around 20 ± 5 years unless or until it can nudged sooner by socio-political change.

Same.

Some webmasters are apparently stuck in 1990s.

It’s a local newspaper. It would be asinine for them to expend any effort trying to comply with global content rules.

Yeah, not being a creepy weirdo who tracks anyone who visits your website is such a difficult thing.

How can anyone live up to such a standard?

> not being a creepy weirdo who tracks anyone who visits your website is such a difficult thing

This is easy. Confirming compliance is not.

Also, there are content laws other than GDPR. If you’re a small-budget website and need to certify you’re compliant with all laws and regulations you’re subject to, it’s cheaper to block than confirm you’re up to date with the latest Brazilian or German content codes.

They're all the same. Don't spy on people and you're sorted.

Vibe lawyering is totally insufficient if you need to certify you're in compliance with applicable laws and regulations.

Oh in that case you should never have a website at all because you never know what laws you might be contravening.

> you should never have a website at all because you never know what laws you might be contravening

Or, again, ensure compliance in the jurisdictions where you have paying customers. And if another jurisdiction presents ambiguity, block it and carry on. I'm not worried about my work violating North Korean law because I have no intention of ever being subject to it.
