In Baltimore, the minimum wage is $15 an hour (31k / yr) and the starting salary for a police trainee is advertised to be around 35k.

The point isn't whether they get paid the wrong amount for the qualifications required the point is about the calculus about how much you are willing to put up with when you are getting paid $70k vs $300k.

If I'm getting paid $300k and once or twice in my 40 year career I have to deal with a pandemic my thought process about how I feel about that is different than if I'm making 70k. All I'm saying is comparing doctors to cops doesn't seem particularly useful.
The entertainment value of playing the lottery is thinking about what you would do with all that money, and a billboard can encourage you to think about it that way, both enhancing its entertainment value and encouraging you to buy a ticket.

I don't think you can tell from a billboard alone how many people think of the lottery as more than just entertainment.

An incitement to violence is a specific thing, and it must be both specific and reasonably actionable. "Kill the Xs" is not an incitement to violence.

No social network (including offline ones) would be able to operate if they let everyone say whatever they wanted. There is an intense amount of moderation required, even here on HN, to remove low quality posts, abuse, threats, spam, porn, illegal content and lots more. So no, you don't really want one where anyone can share their beliefs no matter what. You just have your own opinion of what should/shouldn't be allowed, same as everyone else.
You have to have an account with that site to see the full text, otherwise it cuts off at about paragraph 4 or so.

>but where does it say police can attack non-violent bystanders? Because I'm not seeing it in there.
for the most part they're not bad analyses, just giving folks without relevant background a measure of calibration on the information therein: decent, but worth reading critically rather than with wholesale acceptance.
Yeah, I hate the video ads that play randomly and interrupt you... I wish ads were integrated better but I guess some games that isn't as easy maybe...

Police unions contribute to political campaigns, make endorsements and turn out the vote for "anti-crime" candidates across the board, from President down to local DA. They certainly influence the likelihood of aggressive, or even competent, prosecution of cops who break the law.
I didn't say it was OK I said I hadn't seen it personally. It is obviously not OK.
Nice article with solid background research.

However the article has a strong connotation that WHO has permanently stopped hydroxychloroquine trials just based on this one particular study. That is wrong.

WHO recognized that the Lancet study was flawed and did not have randomized trials. They have been doing their own Solidarity Trials which they have now temporarily paused to analyze their own collected data as well as the data from this study. They plan to reach a decision as to whether to continue the trials again or not. They have NOT permanently ended hydroxychloroquine trials forever as a possible treatment for Covid-19.

How do you engender an idea of a UK/Canada-type cop in a country where there are more guns than people? I assume cops here are trained to see all citizens as armed threats, which systematically produces cops who are always on edge and ready to kill.

The whole thing feels like a deeper problem than just training cops to be nicer.

To a certain degree I agree with you, although I think it should be practiced in conjunction with Twitter's strategy of flagging/hiding tweets. It seems like a good way to ensure the racist/violent/fake content can be moderated in some fashion.

I think it's actually very useful, and informative for people to know what their president is thinking, and frankly, how idiotic he is. The world would be in a much worse position if he was silent, and his supporters were able to deceive themselves that he was competent.

Considering that the police force were initially created for slave patrols, it’s not really surprising that white supremacy is a part of police culture.

It seems to be still on based on the fact that every self checkout has a scale and Walmart does have bag item prompts until you bag it. It isn't as annoying though.

My guess is that they have more tolerance for items not of the exact weight and/or more accurate scales.
Well, AntiFa exists to engage in violence, by their own statements, so anyone "posing as" them to "call for violence" is just playing catch-up.

Qualified immunity only applies in civil cases. The reason criminal charges are rarely brought in police abuse cases is because of the massive conflict of interest in having the police investigate themselves and be prosecuted by an AG who is essentially a close work colleague.
What nonsense is this? Falsely accusing someone of being a white supremacist does not turn them into a white supremacist.
Disclaimer: I am a bleeding heart liberal and this may filter my observations.

I have been to a few rallies/vigils/marches lately and all incidences of violence that I have witnessed either in person or through media has been instigated by the police. As far as I know,every documented case where a formerly peaceful crowd turns into chaos has been started with police shooting pepperspray, teargas, or whatever into the crowd.

I find it really hard to not come to the conclusion that the police is desperately trying to set a narrative to justify a history of violence by escalating more violence, but please, someone, restore my faith.
Yea, we don't all agree we need police. In fact, probably the best way to fix the problem of police is to get rid of them in their current form.

> I hope, that both sides, the protesters and police force will find a way, to exit that spiral of violence.

The two sides are massively unequal in terms of power, the onus is on the police to stop the violence.
In Regrettable defense of FB:

In the book, Guardians of the Internet, two cases are mentioned:

Case 1:

Mexican gang violence was caught dramatically on video and went viral. This sparked a conversation and brought attention on a major issue since The government had been suppressing this information to project an image of security.

This video pierced that veil- until it was seen by (I believe) British citizens who woke up in the morning.

They called their friends at Facebook who realized it broke their rules and removed it.

Case 2:

Contrast this with how Facebook handled the boston Bombings.

Facebook mods removed gore images because that broke their rules.

And then a message came on high telling people “no, This is newsworthy and it goes through. The rules are in abeyance.”

If country like Mexico Can’t have that benefit, then Facebook is effectively using power in one place to decide what goes through and in other places is choosing not to exercise it.

Facebook is then trapped by its choice.

What should FB do in a country like Brazil? Hungary? Russia? India?

Heck, could any theoretically company find the right policy people and be able to pay them to tell their teams what the right call is?

Facebook's solution currently is this "we are not the arbiter of truth" comment, and working with governments to create govt agencies to set up rules which FB can then follow.

So What’s the right call in this situation?
I think Canada is going to be an interesting case study in UBI in the near future as 1/4 of the population has been receiving $2000/month CERB payments for up to 7 months.
Users probably flagged your comment because it was unsubstantive, and a supercilious generalization of the community you're participating in ("HN users are the first..."). The HN community is divided because society at large is divided, but the bulk of the participants here don't match your description. You might be running afoul of the cognitive biases that shape most of these perceptions:

Absolutely, there are dozens of videos from the past week of police aggression turning a non-violent protest into an angry mob
I think the issue that Twitter is running into now and is going to run into is that they're not applying this in any manner that could be deemed consistent. Do a quick search for "kill the" and you'll find endless tweets without the warning.

You could make the case that Twitter only has to enforce this for accounts of importance. Yet there are plenty of officals who have tweets calling for violent jihad, the killing of homosexuals, so on and so on that have been made since the first warning... and that label has still not been applied.

Twitter is editorializing, and I greatly fear they are going to ruin Section 230 for all of us.
Why would there be such an expectation? What incentive would a copyright holder have to sue that they don't have under the current system?
Counterpoint: the POTUS has plenty of opportunity to get his voice heard independently of Twitter and Twitter has a right as to what they will publish.

This enforces a "developers-must-own-and-continue-to-own-a-domain". Not saying that's bad, but it needs to be considered. for eg A lot of software these days is built and served entirely from GitHub.

By posting that, you make it more so, and actually it is far from true. We should do things to help develop the discourse here, not kick it. The container is fragile.

I believe that when the community gets this sort of inaccurate reflection of itself, it encourages a "why bother" sentiment and, downstream from that, a "fuck you" sentiment, since if no one is communicating anyhow, what else does it make sense to say?

In reality, is there any other non-siloed community site of HN's size, where divisive topics routinely arise, that manages to do better at "adult conversations"? I don't know of one. I know it feels like HN is the worst [1], but actually, in relative terms, this place has managed to plant at least one or two toes outside the inner circle of hell. Our task is to move another toe in that direction.

I wrote about this recently: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23308098. Short version: it's because HN is less divisive that it feels more divisive, because this is the rare case of a large(ish) community that keeps itself in one piece instead of factoring into shards, silos, or social graphs. If that's true, then although we haven't realized it yet, the HN community is on the leading edge of the opportunity to learn to be different with one another, at least on the internet. This opportunity is precious and we need to become more conscious of it as a community, so we have a chance to do something with it other than collapse back into the moat.

[1] I do not mean to pick on you personally—it sucks to get singled out and I have zero intention of shaming. The truth is that most of us have this emotional perception of HN, including me. If you read the post I linked to above, there's a theory there of why that is.

We're not talking about the same thing here. Of course it's better if the police can manage crowds and protests without anyone dying. Ideally no police person ever has to draw their service weapon and fire.

What seems less defensible is police coming in with things like tanks. Personally, I would prefer to see police de-escalate rather than escalate.

It's way more than that. Firstly, most Anaconda installations come shipped with libraries like Matplot, numpy, etc. So a lot of people that use conda write software that assumes those libraries are always available e.g leaving them out of requirements.txt or setup.py.

Then there's the issue of Anaconda using it's own package repos, so even if you do manage to figure out what packages an Anaconda developed piece of software needs, you're getting a subtlety or maybe not so subtlety different version of it using standard pip, which creates the worst kind of hard to trace bugs.

Lastly, certain installations of Anaconda overwrite the system python version with it's own (so you can just use numpy or whatever anywhere) causing a huge headache with other system software and making using the standard distribution tools even harder.

I get that it's convenient for scientists that just want to write scripts and have them work, but if you're creating any kind of collaborative software, especially if you'll be working with SW engineers down the line, avoid Conda at all costs.
If an officer is going to respond to hurt feelings with violence after some hour-mark, then:

1. police forces need to limit their time, and forces that do not need to held accountable

2. they need to not be police

They _need_ to be held to a higher standard than everyone else.
I don't think this is just a hypothetical either; if I remember rightly, a lot of the really obnoxoius unwanted software from that era was signed with valid, purchased signing certificates in order to encourage people to install it via ActiveX.
This makes me wonder: isn't this basically the perfect thing to bootstrap a decentralized DNS with? In a messaging system there's no reason you'd ever want to revoke control of a domain, and the idea of genuinely-anonymizable communication should be appealing to just about anyone.

I might not be thinking broadly enough here though.
Experiments are very carefully designed so that you can learn something from them.

There is not much that can be learned from an experiment like this. The biggest questions of UBI are not made more answerable by it.

Namely, why wouldn't prices/cost of living/rent rise to eat all the stipend, and how will we pay for it at massive scale?

Virtually no one disputes that an extra $500-1k/month given to a subset of people is a benefit to the people who receive it.

Super, Linux was just an example I use.

I am running rolling release distribution on desktop and Ubuntu LTS on server. My choice of secure installations is limited [1]. Looks similar in NetBSD [2]. Microsoft had no interest in support - better if customer buy new version and support have significant cost.

VirtualBox solved running Windows in VM at least ten years ago. Office support in Wine is from platinum to garbage [3], [4], have not tried. I can imagine running outdated versions behind firewall. Running newer versions requires newer hardware. And internet facing applications should be up to date so modern browser support is limited - Firefox ESR at best. I run w3m from console only on emergency.

Speaking of hardware - Moore's law is dead. I do not think 2020 notebook differs much from 2014 notebook. Except better display and battery.

Yes, it does say that. Libraries generally don't allow people to make copies of complete works, and for good reason. Copyright laws often have special provisions for specific purposes like archival, but that isn't what's being described here.
You can also sell free software https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/selling.en.html and, in the publishing world, many publishers make money selling public domain books. So your premise is incorrect.

I'm not asking for hypothetical reasoning, I'm asking for evidence that more copyright brings more wages to developers and less copyright means less wages. Surely there are experiments that looked for such evidence? (And if not, how are you so sure?)
Two things can be true here: police overreach, and terrorist violence. Both need to be dealt with.
We need law enforcement to keep order and uphold the law, while also not silencing reporters and journalists.
Terrorists, we just need them to fuck right off. (In this case, the horizontally-organized “antifa” cells)
This would be hilarious if it were not so telling about the state of security in general (not at this company in particular, i'm certain many if not most companies do the same...).
It may be the wrong fight, but with physical libraries closed, it was definitely the right time. Perhaps they thought the situation would last longer?
