Living around people at any density has the same costs. Living in a city should have an implied contract that you will have these issues as costs, with numerous other things coming as benefits.

The issues of noise, trash, parking etc should be made to be internalized by those that bring the nuisance. There are noise laws, littering laws, and parking ordinances. Maybe adjustments are appropriate in some cases.

At the end of the day, anti-AirBnB laws are about control over your neighbor. The same things were said about home offices for years (and still are in some localities). The problem is, you can always point to antecdata to support your point, but we should be looking at individual violators of reasonable laws that uphold health and safety in a neighborhood - not using a blunt instrument to snuff out all new uses of property that come about because you don't like it.

Capital-A Antifa does not exist. It's like saying, "The Geeks are destroying Western culture"; there are people who identify with a broad philosophy and will adopt a label as a signal of that identity, but there is no organization pulling strings, and certainly no one way to be a geek or antifa.
Thanks, this is helpful. I'll pass it on.
I guess it's the mirror image of the word "fascist" being sometimes used as a catch-all term.
Haha, I'm working with someone who came from mainframe. I'll show him this.
No. Antifa is more than just anti-fascist, and not everyone who is anti-fascist is Antifa. There are plenty of people who are not pro-fascist, but also are not pro-brawling-with-the-Proud-Boys-in-the-streets.

In fact, the Proud Boys could use the same logic. Are you ashamed of America's heritage? No? Then you're one of the Proud Boys. The logic in either case is completely false. In fact, this is one of the standard fallacies, but I can't remember the name of it.

With the recent protests it's been difficult to find local news coverage. But I found tweets, I found livestreams, but I couldn't find any reporters covering some of the most impactful demonstrations in my city in decades. In that moment, Twitter was critical.

There is a lot of bots and trash, but it has it moments where it is a wonderful tool. This is one of them.

Show me a believable bot that's going to fake a livestream of what's actually happening at the scene. There's far too much contextual information to fake it. I could identify the streets protestors walked down, the landmarks, the actions taken, the way the phone was temporarily thrown on the ground after a confrontation. Far too much nuance to fake all of that.

Faking a <500px low quality everything-is-burning but it's actually street lights picture isn't particularly groundbreaking when it comes to doctored images.

> The citizens of the united states of america have a 2nd amendment.

The 2A's only role in US society is to allow some people to buy some small arms some of the time and otherwise doesn't have any place in America until the country falls (at which point all of the laws/amendments are not relevant). It's not like you can use your weapon on a government official and claim under the 2A you were protecting yourself against the government. You still get prosecuted for murder; only jury nullification would save you at that point.

> if they were armed the way americans are

You forget that our military is the largest in the world with lots of recent experience in {counterinsurgency, counterterrorism, and psychological operations}. They also have some of the best tools for identifying where most people are and are capable of shutting off most mass communications within the US if they needed to.

In the end, the political polarization is such that those who own lots of guns tend to be the same demographics who revere police/military/order and are currently in the camp that overlooks / detests the protesters, saying their complaints are overblown. I'm pretty sure that's largely due to a sustained PR effort by the post-WW2 Defense Department including sponsorships of sporting events that are more likely to attract those same demographics.
Probably not, I'm a pragmatist. The US government asking for social media handles is a significant disincentive that brings the value of many, but not all, social media accounts below zero.

would not be at all surprised if the FBI has evidence that these riots are often escalated by foreign operatives. or at the very least escalated by locals that have been groomed and stoked by foreign powers.

The US imploding is right up Russia's and China's street. Though I suspect that China would prefer that the Us doesn't dissolve economically, they need them to keep buying shit from them.
If there was an autopilot that nailed every scenario in any weather condition except clearly overturned trucks in good weather, should that system be approved for general public use?
And that is also wrong, and unjust in my opinion. When buying property, you gain a bundle of rights over the described property deeded to you. Not an infinite set of positive rights over the whole range of human activities that occur within some geographic radius around it.
"Of course, as Gillham pointed out, negotiating and managing a protest can’t really work if the protest wasn’t organized ahead of time. That goes double, he said, if the topic of the protest is police brutality. It’s hard to negotiate with someone about the best way to demand they be fired."

This point is important. The police can't police themselves, and for a lasting solution to this problem to emerge there'll have to be major structural changes to the way police oversight and review is carried out.

I hope these protests are a turning point that'll lead to such reforms, but I suspect no significant changes will occur. Hopefully I'll be proven wrong.

Are you from France ?

In Canada (Québec) we are often using French words while discussing CS. I've noticed that French immigrants are also using a lot of English words even in random day-to-day words.

We called it "L'anglais de France" (France's English) [1]

Thankfully, airbags do not deploy based on what us internet commentators deem "seems severe", but, instead, based on data from accelerometers.
It's interesting from a political standpoint that there's some omitted countries. China springs to mind - I suspect that the death of many Uighurs would skew their results.
This is instantly noticeable if you drive a vehicle with radar cruise. It won't slow down if you're pointed at a stationary object.
That is an aspect that is admittedly different from a car. It really depends on the phase of flight. In cruise there are rarely instances that an immediate reaction is needed. In the terminal environment though where you’re closer to the ground and other traffic it can definitely be split second.

Autopilots will incorrectly intercept approach guidance and fly through the course or altitude when you’re low to the ground or blow through the lateral course into a parallel runway’s course. That’s the most frequent failure I’ve encountered. I’ve also seen it just completely lose its mind on autoland at low altitude requiring intervention.

Point is split second decisions are needed during critical phases of flight. Driving a car on autopilot is likely going to require that level of vigilance during the entire drive unless we get highway systems that present hyper controlled environments where self-driving cars have higher reliability. This can kind of be likened to why cruise is less critical in an aircraft. You’re at high altitude, traffic is exclusively controlled by ATC (unlike low altitude where there is traffic not under ATC control), and the aircraft are all required to operate on autopilot and have collision avoidance systems where the aircraft communicate with each other (TCAS).

Aviation has dealt with the integration of these systems for the last 5 decades and the human/machine interface. There have been many failures and successes and I think it would be a great place to start for figuring out how this works with cars.
Weird--I lurk a lot in the unseemly corners of the Internet, and I can't recall ever having seen a piece of disinformation that wasn't obviously so.

I wonder if this isn't blown a bit out of proportion. There's a lot of difference between a "war of the worlds" piece that a lot of people might actually believe, and a "trump is a literal nazi" piece that everyone knows is hyperbole.
> Some of those other four directors want things that are nearly enough exactly the opposite of what you want, and you can do nothing to expel them...

> Also, the best five people who are willing to fill the roles you control are not exactly the ones you would like to hire, but nevertheless, they're the best available and willing. Now what?

Well in the short term, you're screwed. But how plausible is this imaginary scenario? There is literally no one better available, in a country of 300 million people? Are the politicians we have now the best of the best?

Take the choices we have in the next presidential election for example: Donald Trump vs Joe Biden. Are these the best "available and willing" candidates out there? Not one single person in the country more qualified than either of these fellows?

Ask HN: How to build an IoT analytics database?
Hello hackernews! My company is launching a new IoT-based product next autumn and we are looking for platform or database to store the data. Product is industrial and it will send telemetry back to cloud regular intervals through MQTT.
We are planning to use some open source visualization tool for the data such as Grafana, but storing the data is still problem.

Ideally we could visualize even large intervals (5 years) of data fast but in the same time we would like to store all data sent to us for 5-10 years timespan. Sometimes it's also good to see high frequency sampled data (~10Hz) for some certain duration when ie. maintenance crew is investigating equipment failures.

Some people have suggested using products such as Elasticsearch but it seems it may get very expensive if we want to store data long times.

Prometheus was also mentioned elsewhere as an option but it seems that it doensn't support high frequency sampled telemetry very well.

I can see cost benefits for archiving the raw data into S3 or other object storage, but then query engine should support fetching from different sources. Is there some open source options?
Honest questions -

Who gets to define an entity as a "library" and is IA defined as such, legally speaking?
I noticed that (that's the "Summary" I mentioned).

But reading it after the very long text about individual bugs is much less useful. Most position/research papers put the executive summary/abstract first with good reason - that helps the paper be better received. Maybe even organizing the lists as collapsible items could help the presentation be better* .

As for the summary list, it too can benefit from a more probing look which tries to look at the issue more deeply, much more than listing individual issues. For example, ABIs and APIs are often unstable on purpose, especially on the kernel. Linus has long arguments supporting the unstable model and some Free software proponents like that this encourages GPL code.

Do we want the Windows model? Maybe a shim could supply that? Or maybe we shouldn't have even that due to Free software reasons? (RMS tried that which gcc and it was one of the reasons that led to LLVM gaining traction). Or development speed?

* That doesn't require JavaScript. One could use HTML5's simple summary/detail elements.

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/de...

There are css hacks which can achieve the same result on HTML4, but they are much more complicated and I suspect a list on Linux issues shouldn't care about supporting Internet Explorer.
At some point in the past, a few programming languages would try to be localized. I faintly remember Visual Basic using German names for the functions? Also I think SAP/ABAP was German at first.
So when you write WENN X>LAENGE(Y) DANN you'd be using German variables, because it fits the programming language.
Today I would expect all variables be english and comments be German at best. If I'd see code with German variables I'd just assume it was a beginner.

If you build a building, you expect to be able to use it. If you create a product, you expect to be able to sell it. If you create a new idea, you expect to be able to monetize it.
please see my comment above. All English today unles you are a Beginner.
> I don't understand how paying attention can prevent this sort of thing.

The simple answer is that you take over when something absurd is happening in front of you, like a trailer flipped on its side blocking your lane.

You don’t wait till the last moment to take over. You would immediately move over to the right lane, manually. AutoPilot helps in this case by keeping you perfectly in lane while you check your blind spot before getting over. That’s how it’s supposed to work anyway, and that’s how I use it.
Sorry, your comment might make some good points but you lost me, your reader, when you made absolute claims about police officers.

There certainly exist police that just want to be tough guys and beat people up. But there’s plenty officers not like that.

You detract from your other points by taking such a black and white stance.
it seems like the term "antifa" is code for "militant lefties".

So how does one be a part of the "Anti Fascist" movement without being "antifa" ?
I don't think you are understanding that comment correctly. Its not making a moral argument at all. It's making an argument regarding the business outcomes of PE. He's not saying it's good or bad either way. He's saying a simple piece of deductive logic proves it isn't fully correct.

Sorry, literally the latter what? Violence aimed at protesters? Or accelerationists?
Folks - don't be obtuse. Police commanders know exactly what will happen when they escalate with tear gas and rubber bullets.

Pro-police forces WANT mayhem. It makes people watching on TV afraid of the protests, and it changes the subject away from the widespread peaceful opposition to racist police violence.
Such tragedies are, of course, accounted for. Virtually nobody who is discussing this on HN is a monster who is not thinking of those people. Your accounting may differ, and you should express your thoughts on that.
NBC is the same company that, back in the 90s, constantly said things on TV like, “a black man”, “group of black teens”, etc., every time any crime was committed by African Americans, as if race was a necessary part of the story.

I can’t tell you where to find real news, but what I can tell you is that, if you’re getting your information from NBC or CNN or Fox or CBS or any other major network, you are consuming pure propaganda.
> all lawsuits are settled with funds from police pension funds

I like it most.

> police go to jail

> officers who do not report other officers go to jail

> bosses/chiefs etc who are aware of abuses of power and brutality and do not arrest those officers go to jail

All these "go to jail" stops at the "qualified immunity". And no politician yet was willing to do anything about it.
We need to demand to end this "qualified immunity". That's number one force, that corrupts police.

> police officers are required to get malpractice insurance. The tax payer should not be paying for criminal behavior.

And who is going to pay that "malpractice insurance"? Tax payer again.

But I heard opinion, and I agree, that some of police attitude "shot first, ask questions later" is caused by insurance. Here is how:
1) police is looking to buy life&disablity insurance for it's officers
2) insurance providers are demanding, that policies of the police force designed in such a way, so that likehood of the injury to the officers is minimal, which in practice mean: shoot first, ask questions later.
3) police implement such policies to get life&disability insurance.

There were reports of planned riots in rural Polk County. Knowing they didn't have the resources to cover wide spread area, the sheriff instructed citizens to shoot anyone who broke into their home. I support this. Telling citizens you can't help them, and they must protect themselves is very different than threatening that the state itself will kill you.

Considering the fact that accidents often attract bystanders and emergency personnel to help the incapacitated driver, the inability to avoid an existing wreck in clear weather is a glaring hazard to human life.

Moreover, trucks sometimes contain hazardous or flammable materials.

Humans do have range-finding capabilities due to binocular vision.

I guess. The fact that no human can plausibly consider writing their own web browser from scratch these days seems telling. Nor really can any real human seriously consider finding a bug in a web browser, tracking it down in the source code, and submitting a patch.

Web browsers have become satanic mega-behemoths of inscrutable code. (I'm too lazy to look--are there more lines in Chrome, deps included, or the Linux kernel?) They are the utter antipode of the Unix philosophy, and arguably an engineering abomination.
In amateur practice "<call> calling <call>" is sometimes used for phone, especially UHF/VHF, perhaps out of the ARRL's stated preference for communications being clear and easy to understand without reliance on jargon or convention.

However, especially on other modes and even with phone in most cases, the standard is "<call> <call>". This is more or less derived from morse operating practice where the prosign "DE" means "this is" or "from," and the typical way of calling another station was "<call> DE <call>" (or perhaps "<call> DE <call> GA"). Naturally the DE was dropped in many cases and it became just the two calls in sequence with an implied DE.

There is actually no regulatory requirement to state call sign at the beginning of a conversation, although it's standard to because, well, it's nice to know who you're talking to. FCC regulations do require each party to state their call sign at the end of a conversation, usually as "<call> SK" in the case of morse or "<call> clear" in the case of phone, although I'd say use of the "clear" proword is somewhat more variable. I've always had a certain dislike for "we'll be clear" as this is a bit confusing to newcomers, less so than "clear on your final" although that seems more formal.

I assume that, like most radio conventions, this originated in naval use, as the convention is the same in at least aviation and public safety.
IA should start respecting robots.txt disallow, because right now they ignore it.
So dozens of police departments are conspiring to turn dozens of peaceful protests into riots and looting? All across the united states?
The fringe elements are blending into the crowds. The poor protestors are getting gassed. Let's not create this narrative that the majority of protestors are out to loot and damage property. They're not. And most of the ones who are causing damage aren't black.
Curious, my partner is also extremely texture-sensitive and has not been able to stand eating eggs or meat for as long as they can remember, but can definitely sense smell and taste. I wonder if there's some interesting connection there.
