The point isn't to console you. The point is to explain why crime happens, so it can be mitigated. Ie:

* Stop immigration.

OR

* Integrate poor people into society, the workforce, etc.

Yeah, I totally agree but it must be really hard to implement new guidlines for a monster (super large) company like MS.

They are moving slowly, but IMO to the right direction.
Collecting data about ethnicity is always problematic because the definitions are fundamentally fluid.

Finnish people were considered Asian in some American states in the early 20th century. Should they be included in crime statistics with Chinese?

Also, if police are required to collect this data, who else is? Should you be able to look up the registered ethnicity of a person similar to how anyone can look up tax returns in Sweden (and other Nordic countries)? If not, why not?

The idea of video pros, programmers, and IT guys being "tastemakers" is laughable. People used to ask me for computer recommendations 15 years ago, when specs mattered and computers were scary. Today, people just get a Mac because their fellow non-technical people have one, or because they have an iPhone or Apple Watch already.

Indeed in our household it works they other way around: My completely non-technical wife has prohibited me from buying non-Apple products. ("You know how whiney you get every time you buy a non-Apple product.")
well there is for some of us since its pretty epic failure.

and the story goes deeper - why Israel bended over and more was direct threat from Jordanian kind that they would execute those Mossad spies publicly if antidote was not provided immediately... that would be a massive fail for Mossad/Israel since they try always to kill in silence and stay in shadows.

and upon release of those spies they stated they will try to kill him again :)
It is relevant to the topic of how to prevent crime - it tells you that eliminating immigration won't help, but that addressing poverty will.

It's not that simple. There's a lot happening on this front, and when the government controls a substantial part of the economy, they have effective censorship powers even when they're not actually burning books.

National economist Tino Sanandaji has been writing about how BRÅ (Brottsförebyggande rådet) has ceased to make statistics about immigration-rateld crime, for political reasons.

He published a book about this subject [1], and it's quite a success, but libraries are refusing to buy it because it is "inciting hatred". ("Mein Kampf" and very many extreme-left books are still available from the same libraries, they are not "inciting hatred".)

Tino Sanandaji and people like Hanif Bali are, however, able to write about the subject without much fear or prosecution, because they have a Middle-East immigrant background themselves.

Except that new apple applications have to come from Apple users. If the devs aren't happy with what's available, that means fewer applications. Fewer applications means fewer users, fewer users means a less attractive base for devs... the spiral continues ever-downward.
There's a difference between 'people from foreign backgrounds' and refugees. Even in Germany, I wouldn't be surprised if 'people from foreign backgrounds' commit crimes at a higher rate when you don't adjust for socio-economic conditions.

However the majority of Syrian refugees - about 70%[1][2][3] are women and children. Again, something that is rarely mentioned in certain parts of the internet.

> the level [of lethal violence] in 2015 – when a total of 112 cases of lethal violence were reported – was higher than for many years.

> he statistics also show that 17 people were killed with firearms in 2011, while the corresponding figure in 2015 was 33.

This is the part that's ironic - if the US had the same per-capita lethal violence rate as Sweeden except for immigrants who we'll assume murder 100 times as often, it would still be a lot safer than the US is currently!
I don't know about Sweden, but in Finland the number of firebomb/grenade attacks increased a lot in the past few years. All of them due Finnish born right wing zealots trying to burn down the shelters housing the refugees.

Luckily there seems to be less attacks in the last half a year.

I think there's been more attacks, but here's a summary of some of them: http://yle.fi/uutiset/3-8517586 (Dec 2015, in finnish)

I feel you. X and some recovery critical software should have their reserved memory cgroup with some guaranteed, safe amount of physical memory and 0 swappiness. I speculate that on Windows it works so well because most of these stuff are in kernel space anyway.
What sets the no-go zones apart in places like Sweden is that, not only are they filled with poor unemployed people, but those people have a different ideology and come from third world countries, and therefore the crimes perpetrated are different from that of the indigenous population. There isn't even a street in Dublin in which that's the case.

There are certainly places in Dublin where you might be more likely to get yourself robbed in, but beaten up for drinking alcohol or walking as a white person with a Muslim girl? Nowhere.

What do I have to change with the "hello world" setup to get any kind of error reporting? If I introduce syntax errors in the index.js, I don't even get a good stacktrace on the CLI, never mind a neat compiler message in the browser itself (like create-react-app does).

Is this out of the scope for the basic example or an oversight? Anyway, if this is targeted at beginners, that's a bit of an issue.
"but you are not really politically allowed to say what kind of people live in those neighborhoods"

It would help because those things are mostly done by the youth born there. Most migrants in a small (2sq miles although some like to extrapolate it to the whole country) community like Molenbeek (where most of those problems originate) are second generation or more. We are way past the point where it's a migration problem or where a migration stop would help.

I don't know how closing our borders or my absolute favourite "sending them back to their country of origin" (which will result in an infinite loop) will really help.

But then again for some we are not allowed to point to socio-economic problems, they pretend that it simply doesn't exist or it's the complete fault of the other side. What I often see in Belgium is the argument that Mohammed should find a job or that most are lazy.

But from the moment we the see the name on his resume or he shows up to do our garage door installation, it's a big "no-go" also. It's a vicious circle that works both ways.

So now I'm confused. Does a low approval rate matter, is it "bad data"? What defines "bad data"? Say the statistics running around this thread specifically about crime in countries, broken down by race and type or crime, or broken down further by region within counties too. How does one determine "good data" vs "bad data" here?

Yes, not every system will forever be recoverable. You can definetly crash at just the right moment to ruin your year. I'd still like the other safety constraints that this provides because I still think that even if N (where N is the number of threads available on the CPU) processes have a chance of being corrupted we're still going to be saving the rest of the processes on the system that aren't currently transacting with one another.
Yes, there are even worse pieces of trash than RT somewhere out there. There's a paper in my country that claims the Earth is flat, that's not the sort of media I am comparing RT to because I don't trust those papers at all either.

The New Gazette (Gorbachev's paper) is internal Russian media and did not run a full retard propaganda campaign on this issue. They printed "Forgive us, Netherlands" on their cover page. This is the paper that has had something like 5 journalists assassinated in the last decade for actually doing their job.

By presenting RT as somehow not particularly bad you are lowering the bar all the way to the ground and disrespecting thousands of honest journalists who work hard to inform the public about the wrongdoing of those in power. None of those people work for RT. RT is a pure propaganda paper. Journalists in my country have taken down people in our government and even sent them to prison by relentless digging for the truth. They have been killed in their pursuit of justice. Throwing actual journalists into the same basket with RT indicates an extremely warped perspective.
I don't need a link to a study to tell you what it means. The meaning is exactly the same as in normal speech, too bad for you since you'll have to do even more mental gymnastics to resolve your cognitive dissonance.

It means someone was suspected (e.g. were at any time a suspect during the investigation), regardless of whether they actually committed anything or not.
Yes, this is the "Embrace" Phase.
Correct me if I am wrong, but it's just about the thumbnail inappropriately used in one of the videos. Not about the report itself or the factual errors in it. Just the thumbnail which was probably assigned from some stock of "Syrian war destruction photos". That's sounds more like sloppy work than a deliberate lie.
> So it seems that whilst immigrants are suspected of more crimes than average, they commit the same amount of crime as poor deprived members of indigenous populations.

"Commit the same level of crime as the subset of the population who commit the highest level of crime" does not sound very reassuring.
Those aren't in conflict.

Immigration of more poor people from a different culture makes the already difficult task of integrating poor people even more difficult.
I'd like to think that HN can host civil, fact-based discussions about sensitive issues like these.

If it can't, then perhaps the community isn't that special after all.
That argument is about as intellectually sound as saying "evolution is only a theory" (correct) "so creationism is equally valid" (wrong).

("It's bad to be locked into a party-line bubble" (correct) "so it's good advice to add RT and Breitbart to your daily media diet" (wrong))
I generally agree that the term requires more conceptual clarity, but it's a matter of propaganda now. And if any deranged Muslim who shoots an American is called a terrorist, we can at least hope for an equally vague use of the term in the other direction.

Yes, traffic patterns at the time was heavily slanted towards downloads. I know about copper wires and how download and upload limit each other. Still, setting that situation in stone was very limiting. It's a self fulfilling prophecy.

You don't want to host your server at home because you don't have upload. The ISP sees nobody has servers at home so they conclude nobody needs upload. Peer-to-peer file sharing and distribution is slower than YouTube because nobody has any upload. Therefore everybody uses YouTube, and the ISP concludes nobody uses peer-to-peer distribution networks.

And so on and so forth. It's the same trend that effectively forbid people to send e-mail from home (they have to ask a big shot provider such as Gmail to do it for them, with MITM spying and advertisement), or the rise of ISP-level NAT, instead of giving everyone a public IPv6 address like they all deserve (including on mobile).

There is a point where you have to realise the internet is increasingly centralised at every level because powerful special interests want it to be that way.

Regulation is what we need. Net neutrality is a start. Next in line should be mandated symmetric bandwidth, no ISP-wide firewall (the local router can have safe default settings), public IP (v4 or v6) for everyone, and no restriction on usage patterns (the ISP should not be allowed to forbid servers). Ultimately, our freedom of expression and freedom of information depends on this. They are messing with human rights.

Based on your link, it seems clear that the rates went up in 2015 (unless I am grossly misreading that graph).

For 2014 it was a little less than 2%. For 2015 it is more than 3%.

Cutting off immigration is not some kind of autosolution, but if immigrants commit higher levels of crime compared to the rest of the population, eliminating immigration would help.
Precisely. These articles are full of Bayesian conceptual mistakes like this. It's going to be hard to prove anything without the source figures.
Well honestly I don't even care what happens in Sweden, because they're responsible for themselves. Their case will be an example for the whole EU soon enough.

I do know that I won't support the same policy in my country though, because just avoiding the risk of such crimes is with a measure like this is worth enough.

I moved from Python mostly to using R, Racket and Haxe for my other side projects. This infighting just left a bad taste in my mouth and started seeing greener pastures, which for once in my life were in fact greener. I still love Python but I don't use it much due to community drama.

I got an email from Cloudflare and here's an excerpt about the # of sites affected by this.

Not sure what to make of it - the low number of domains affected.

====================================

In our review of these third party caches, we discovered data that had been exposed from approximately 150 of Cloudflare's customers across our Free, Pro, Business, and Enterprise plans. We have reached out to these customers directly to provide them with a copy of the data that was exposed, help them understand its impact, and help them mitigate that impact.

Fortunately, your domain is not one of the domains where we have discovered exposed data in any third party caches. The bug has been patched so it is no longer leaking data. However, we continue to work with these caches to review their records and help them purge any exposed data we find. If we discover any data leaked about your domains during this search, we will reach out to you directly and provide you full details of what we have found.
