> These protests are at least partly drummed up by out of state agitators, and are implicitly condoned by a feckless and weak state and local government that would rather give ground (literally) than enforce the rule of law.

Its primary failure in enforcing the rule of law has been its inability to enforce it on police officers.

What we're seeing is the consequence of decades of lawless behavior by police. People have had enough of being terrorized by it.
"Political correctness" is complete garbage. This is an opinion shared by a wide variety of people across the political spectrum (as well as by the majority of people who eschew politics all together). Belief in free speech and free expression is not a "conservative" position - quite the opposite. Ironically (and unfortunately) the authoritarian identitarians who currently control the Democratic party and large portions of legacy media have pushed many people who believe in free speech towards Trump (or just out of the political system all together) with their toxic demands for adherence to "political correctness".
For the nginx ingress case:

An ingress object creates an nginx/nginx.conf. That nginx server has an IP address which has a round robin IPVS rule. When it gets the request it proxy's to a service ip which then round robins to the 10.0.0.0/8 container IP.

Ingress -> service -> pod

It is all very confusing but once you look behind the curtain it's straight forward if you know Linux networking and web servers. The cloud providers remove the requirement of needing Linux knowledge.
My personal estimate is zero. He can't really cash in until he leaves office.
That shooting was an isolated incident, and someone actually went to jail for it, for a long time. That doesn't happen when a white cop shoots a black person.

That shooting wasn't part of a system of institutional and deep rooted racism. Neither was it part of a system where white cops routinely harass black people with no basis other than the colour of their skin; where white cops use horrifyingly excessive violence and all too often murder black suspects, bystanders and innocents - a system where the perpetrators of that violence and murder are almost guaranteed to face no repercusions at all. A system of ingrained inquality that spans decades.

Black people are harassed, racially abused, set upon and shot frequently by white cops in the USA - and the videos we see pretty much on a daily basis in the news and on twitter are only the tip of the iceberg.

As someone in the UK, the the inequality and racism that still exists in the USA, "land of the free", is mind boggling, sickening even. Something has to change, so yes, I can fully understand protests and rioting.

That's a nice theory, and I hope it happens, but hope is never a course of action, especially when we're talking about total hypothetical with no basis in fact at all.
If Trump presidency ends badly, I could see the President becoming more like the Doge in Venice, every time the Doge failed they tended to lose power.

Probably for Mr Trumps relatives the best way out is hope he dies or have him sectioned - in return for a presidential pardon.
Honestly, I only wish I could generally associate the people outraged rioting in the streets with the average Minnesotans, that would probably have prevented the culture that lead to where we are today. Maybe, for example if there were countless examples of Minnesotans standing up to racism and police brutality?

SpaceX's Starship SN4 prototype explodes after rocket engine test
>Richard Stallman, originator of the first free-and-open license, resigned from the Free Software Foundation last year over comments sympathetic to the late billionaire and molester Jeffrey Epstein.

This is patently false character assassination. This should read instead "Richard Stallman, known high-functioning autist with a broken, abusive childhood, defends Marvin Minsky, the only father figure he's ever had, from posthumous accusations of rape and pedophilia on semi-private mailing list. He was then forced to resign and made homeless after lifelong struggle for freedom and justice at the expense of everything else in his life." But that's certainly not a news story--that's just a tragic inquisition and miscarriage of justice.

I'm sure a bunch of blue herrings (i.e. rabid twitter users) will show up and respond with one or more variation of the following (but with zero facts):

"As a woman in tech, I feel personally threatened by the fact that creepy Stallman is alive and walking around freely, creepily. He should have a muzzle put on him and be defenestrated off the Cliffs of Dover. Otherwise we're still alienating potential contributors."

"Stallman is not the squeaky-clean corporate skinsuit we needed to further our sociopathic power grabs. Even if he was innocent (which he wasn't, he's literally Hitler), he should have been removed years before because he's not the right fit for the position of bootlicking for FAANG and champagne socialists."

"Do you even know how society works? Stallman is the problem. He is literally the personification of everything that is wrong with men and software. Period. How anyone can believe that his behavior is acceptable in 2020 is beyond me. You literally need to see a therapist. This Karl Popper quote taken out of context means I don't have to introspect about stomping on your face. #stallmanisliterallyhitler"

hollowpoint restrictions date back to the 19th century (hague convention), not the geneva convention. And yes that is addressing international war.

It explicitly prohibits frangible/flattening/expanding ammo in war. The US hasn't signed that, but in practice they adhere to that part of it (but yes exactly as you point out, only for "war" not "anti-terrorism")
It's getting there, I think it's missing the top layer of polish. I've been working with it for a couple years now and it has some bugs that really hinder development speed.

Methamphetamine, was developed by the Nazis after seeing how effective the amphetamine Benzedrine was for the American team in the '36 Olympics. Under the name Pervitin, the Nazis used the drug throughout WWII, it enabled them to keep fighting for days on end. Blitzkrieg was partly a byproduct of meth. This is also part of the reason why German troops found it so easy to murder large numbers of unarmed people during Barbarossa in the name of heartless Nazi ideology - meth-heads lack empathy.

To say that respect for human dignity has increased over time is very subjective. While I think many would agree with you a large portion of society would not.

An example: Traditional values would say that modern men have less respect for human dignity given the rise in single motherhood. Out of respect men were expected to stick around and help raise a child.

No everyone is going to agree that we are moving in the right direction. It's important to remember that when engaging in political discussions. That people are not often acting out an evil agenda. They are just going with what they think is right.

Discussions on what is the best way forward for society are far more fruitful than the way politics are generally discussed online. Where the other side is evil and it should be obvious to everyone that they just want to see the world burn.
>Under your logic, any time the government breaks a law and harms me, I am automatically entitled to disregard the law as well and retaliate.

I would reword that to say "any time the government breaks a law and harms me, I HAVE THE OPTION to disregard the law as well and retaliate."

That's just the way it is. It may be stupid to fight your government, but if they beat you down enough you may look at that as your best option.

The question I have about your statement is what do you expect an oppressed people are supposed to do when nothing else works?

Telling them to continue to work within a system that has failed them for hundreds of years seems to be the equivalent of telling them that you don't want to change the status quo.
Comparing GWB to Trump is a bit disingenuous, don't you think? Trump is an actual wannabe autocrat, as opposed to GWB and Obama.
I think the GP post was a bit overzealous when they said "ultra wealthy", because even the more-or-less middle class (I'm assuming virtually everyone posting on HN) could afford to pay the ridiculous rates for hand sanitizer and toilet paper. I would complain about the prices but it wouldn't bankrupt me.

However, imagine a single parent who just lost their job because of COVID, and thus living on a very restricted income. Is this person less important than me? I don't think so, the world needs service workers a lot more than they need yuppie software engineers like me, but I'm still more likely to be able to afford the necessities.

This is always my problem with people who defend price gauging; there's always this hidden implication that a rich person is more deserving of something vital than a poor person. You are entitled to that opinion, but I fundamentally and completely disagree with you.
I agree.

The question is, if it's hard to figure out who you can trust, then who can you trust to decide what's fact and what's fiction?

I think trusting any one person or organization to decide is dangerous. Everyone has biases, including the people making decisions at Twitter.

I'd prefer to see the arguments for both sides clearly laid out - "Here are the arguments for and against". Ideally anyone would be able to contribute to either side. Maybe giving each argument its own HN-style discussion.

>What about the Russian police?

it definitely wasn't using it back then in USSR and nor in the 199x. I don't know about the last decade - quick googling shows that the hollow point have been introduced for police use during the last 10-20 years in several European countries.

In this context it makes sense to mention the USSR AK-74 5N7 "tumbling" bullet which was called "poison" bullet by Afganistan mujahideen for its bad quickly infection developing wounds. It is a jacketed lead with steel core inside bullet with few millimeters of air pocket in front. That air pocket made it kind of "a bit" of hollow point without fully triggering that classification. Due to that air pocket it would also easily tumble upon entry into the body thus creating disproportionally massive damage to the surrounding tissues which resulted in very hard to treat and easily gangrene developing wounds and thus it was called the "poison" bullet.
They are a giant and those can be hard to topple in one go, but the fact that a giant can continue a failed business model for a longer time does not make it a not failed model.

This is an interesting way to spin an unpaid furlough... which many people are being forced to take right now.

It's basically equivalent. "You are going to be furloughed for 2 weeks without pay" means, "You have an additional 2 weeks of vacation, but we're going to cut your annual salary by 1/26th."

Which is the same thing as, "Give us back 1/26th of your annual salary, and we'll give you 2 additional weeks of PTO."
I'd love to be a fly on the wall when a legal team responsible for supporting this narrative has to tackle the issue of regulating the platforms as a public utility, but not the Internet providers that carry them.

I don't understand how people can honestly think this is true. The Police Commissioner is literally the guy from Internal Affairs who filed a lawsuit against the city for not promoting black officers fast enough. The state attorney general is the guy who has proudly photographed himself with an anarchist handbook. All across state and local government in Minnesota you find people who are, allegedly, the kind that are supposed to address the "civic neglect" you assume to exist. What more do you want?

You can globally mute individual words: https://www.theverge.com/2020/2/19/21144097/twitter-mute-twe...

All tweets containing muted words will be omitted from your timeline, or if they show up in a thread you're viewing, hidden in-place with a button to reveal. I use this feature liberally. Twitter would be unbearable without it.
Of the hundreds of forms out there across the static properties that are mine, and that I work on, it'll take time to convert them all.

As for user counts, one of the benefits of it being a personal project is that I don't have to share or defend that. It's a service that's there, if you want it feel free to use it. If not, that's completely okay too

I'll add that form to my list for conversion though, so at least thanks for that :)
According to the article you are wrong about "infrastructure as code". Kubernetes is infrastructure as data, specifically YAML files. Puppet and Chef are infrastructure as code.

> Property -- in the form of business and services -- is essential to life.

While that can be true in a literal sense at times, I don't believe shop lifting electronics from Target would have that effect. Even the destruction of local businesses, while indeed terrorizing, is not lethal.

Violent rioting would be something that might require a lethal response, but stealing, looting, robbing, plundering -- no.

> These people are breaking property in their own community and then expect investors or the very government they're protesting to step back in and rebuild.

So you believe that what is right, instead of investing and rebuilding, is that these people should be killed?
I guess its all relative.

In the late 80s I was impressed by a full Wordstar compatible text editor for Turbo Pascal which only occupied 25K (including the compiler). Times have indeed changed.

I'm currently reading up on formal logic in order to fully understand Probability Theory by E. T. Jaynes [1] and I've found it difficult to find a good logic book. There's a thousand on Amazon and it's hard to tell which ones are written a century ago w/ re-released dates with old notation or missing some new ideas. An "original publishing" data feature on Amazon would be a godsend.

I've seen a few well reviewed Symbolic logic books but not sure if that fits the criteria. Mostly digging into boolean algebra atm.

> Wage theft

Or like you're paid $6/hr to do migrant farm work when the minimum wage is $12. That adds up much more quickly and leads people to turn to things like theft.

That's already half your net worth right there.

> Robbery, pickpocketing, car stolen

The average person, even the average person in poverty, is not going to lose the majority of their net worth from pickpocketing, that's just absurd.

Now you're adding in two other crimes, which you didn't mention in your original comment, (you just said pickpocketing is worse than wage theft). Most people in poverty don't own cars in the first place.

My reaction wasn't knee-jerk - the suggestion that pickpocketing is some sort of epidemic across America affecting the nation's poor is just absurd on face.
Both use controller-runtime underneath so there is not much difference between the two. I personally have used both and prefer kubebuilder
I think the risk equation being questioned is different. Today, right now, with a better understanding of the risks for DDT, would it be better to have a campaign to eradicate malaria in sub-saharan Africa with tools like DDT? There would be ecological damage, both anticipatable and unknown. And that would have second and third-order detrimental impacts. But we'd also have a huge gain. Would it be worth it? Right now it is hard to have that kind of discussion.

Another related example: is it better to have the consequences of polluted cities powered with unclean coal, than to have a less developed country with fewer resources to spend on things like healthcare. Which on net is better? I certainly don't know, but the tradeoffs are real.
The White House retweeted it. Trump has many advisors. There is NO way this got past all of them without someone knowing what it meant.

No, Trump did this on purpose. The simplest explanation is the most likely.
Not really understanding the editorializing in the headline here. The CDC isn't characterizing these recommendations as "sweeping changes", certainly. And at a first read they all seem quite sensible to me, and in line with general scientific consensus.

Some of them might be expensive, sure. It's a global pandemic, is it the government's job to make it magically free, somehow?

It's "unsafe" in the same way that any medicine if misused is unsafe -- but not more so than most others.
Could you talk about why you decided to go native iOS and not use something like Flutter to allow you to go to both platforms from one codebase? I'm currently trying to figure out what to do for this idea I have for an app. One the one hand I really like Swift but on the other hand iOS adoption in my country is kind of low so not making an Android app seems kind of dumb. I absolutely hate the native Android SDK so that's definitely not an option.
Looks like one of the wiki dialects.
> Even the destruction of local businesses, while indeed terrorizing, is not lethal.

Tell that to the poor immigrant family whose business, and thus livelihood in this country, was destroyed. This is how we get roof koreans.

Why don't these rioters go stand with guns outside the state capitol or city hall or police dept? Instead of disrespecting the memory of George Floyd. I hope his death isn't used to defend people's 'right' to steal TVs without getting caught. That would be really really really sad.

You don't have the moral high ground here. Terrorizing and instilling fear in your local community is wrong, whether it comes from the state through the police or your fellow countrymen through riots. Just as an appropriate response to the officer who killed Mr Floyd would have been violence, so is violence towards the rioters. We can't honestly say that just because the police are thugs, thus we ought to also let others be thugs. Both can be wrong.

Pshh... Unfortunately things aren't that consistent or that would have been pointed out much earlier. C to C# and C to D are both considered 'steps' (see 'stepwise motion'). That is to say, "half" and "whole" are treated like two different types of steps in traditional theory. (that and "whole" is a much less useful fundamental unit as I said before)
