What they are doing is establishing a shared belief among Americans that Chinese people are deserving of punishment (implied: via military means). For evidence I refer you to the book Manufacturing Consent by well-known computer scientist & political activist Noam Chomsky, who details how the US media again and again has used a strategy of selective reporting to categorize the world's people as deserving or undeserving victims in line with America's foreign policy goals.
I'm sorry but this article is straight assumption. We see a man push over a elderly man. This is hardly out if the norm for online attacks, I saw a nurse the other day beating a man almost to death while he was recording himself saying "Get off my wald".

The one other race attack they had to say "allegedly". Why allegedly, was their not a court case?

We should all live our neighbours, but the media stating things without solid evidence just bothers me.

In my country our biggest city has 20-30% Asians, our media also tried to say their was more hate crimes. When it turned out they had only started to record them. And something getting robbed counted as a hate crime. (Chinese are very rich on average, and its known they tend to carry large amounts or cash).
The best it could find came back at only 61%. I like the virtual tours on the app but I would like (maybe someone has done this already?) an AR app/option where when you are in a place like the Acropolis you hold it up and it shows you what it looked like in its heyday.
I found both articles to be underwhelming. Other brands sell this pasta shape, correct? At no point did bucatini sell out from Eataly
For example.

It was a fun headline of course and clearly one type of the pasta was not available, but “great shortage” was taking more than a little license. I guess it was more tongue in cheek than I initially understood?
Saddens me how far the site has fallen. The abysmal mobile experience shoehorning you into using their low quality app is frustrating.

It makes sense, need to monetize and appeal to the average internet user, but it bums me out there isn't a great replacement as of now.

Many small communities that I like, but one of my favorite search queries is "_________ reddit"

Need to understand timeshares? Want the best rice cooker? Usually reddit has a post with actual humans responding.
it's so easy to mitigate, though, that the fact that one doesn't sorta implies that one might want randos from the internet to use one's resources to view this image.

it's not theft if you leave it out for everyone to use.
I am perfectly capable of holding nothing but contempt for the Chinese government while harboring exactly zero ill will against Chinese people in general.

I tend to assume Chinese people in the US are there because they feel similar about the government, and I have absolutely no clue how non-Chinese Asians figure into this.
My dad has a favourite story about me at age 3 being able to load a floppy disk into the Apple II, turn it on, load Robot Odyssey, and get past the first level. All by failing hundreds of times, never getting frustrated, and watching my 10 year old brother doing it.

When my son was 2 I had high expectations and he still surprised me with how relentless he was at fuzzing the iPad. He doesn't understand what any words of symbols mean but he knows how to navigate it. At 3 he can mouse and keyboard his way into youtube and search for "trains" without being able to tell me whay that word means.

I'm so glad he's thriving with a mouse and keyboard. I worried a bit that he was doomed to be a touch screen computer user.
I was seeing a woman from Tatarstan, the double eyelid phenotypes were pronounces along with some other features that are even more common in East Asia. There are a lot of people in Russia like that.

I had never heard of that place while in the US, its just “Russia” and an image of the part bordering the EU
I am in solidarity with those Asian peoples who have been left behind by Tech Capital's H1-B cherry-picking, but I have absolutely no sympathy for Model Minority Settler Colonists Scabs who move into a neighborhood and threaten violence.

Do us a favor and turn that gun on yourself, invader.

You're displacing families in marginalized neighborhoods, you said it yourself. The reasons a family would immigrate here are their own, but the San Francisco Bay Area (especially Oakland) is a refuge of asylum for communities fleeing racist violence in their former homes in the South. Tech immigrants—especially those on this forum privileged by their sycophantic relationships to international Capital—spending the tech money which you were selected to receive in order to price out working class families who have been routinely and systematically denied those privileges which afford your financial leverage are an abomination. You are destroying families, and killing people with the resultant inequality.

We don't want you here. You deserve to be targeted by "criminals", because your "civilized" economic warfare is the greatest crime.

Edit: Yeah, yeah, yeah, "survival of the fittest," and "Kapitalismus Über Alles". You're all a bunch of sycophants for authoritarian power. You're brown-nosing suckup scabs who hate democracy, and love tyranny and that's why you love being placed in positions of privilege above all your former peers.
Ridiculous the Gamestop saga alone 2B and change. Should be more!
If we want to be truly correct we should include Russians then as well?
Hollow points are for the safety of innocent bystanders by limiting penetration after they hit something solid. This is widely known and understood.
I would take a long-term short on it. I've been using Reddit for 12 years (just checked my badge), and it gets a little worse each year. I just don't see it being relevant in another 12.
Why are you being downvoted? Russians east of the urals look asian too!
Do you really think the type of bullet matters? A bullet is a projectile whose sole purpose is to penetrate the human body at subsonic or supersonic speeds. The original commenter was advocating for carrying and using weapons that fire these bullets against innocent people. To me that's just depravity.
i'm sure the revenue model is robust enough to accommodate spikes in traffic.

Shouldn't we have run out of sand years ago?
Why do you think it would be a parasite, as opposed to any other environmental factor? I don't know of any parasite that affects behavior in that way, but if you have some further information, I'd be interested in hearing it.
Absurd but not new. Equifax was charging people to freeze their credit for a while after the breach, until public pressure mounted.

They probably made a TON of money off of that, and off the credit protection services they offer directly or through subsidiaries.
Any suggestions for static site generators / where to host? I'm thinking about starting a new blog with Hugo / Digital Ocean.

I have a popular Spark blog on Wordpress (https://mungingdata.com/) and can relate to your sentiment that any inconvenience can hold up the writing process. Your post is motivating me to streamline my publishing process.
Are you moving the goalposts here? You seemed to be bemoaning that things don’t get fixed after a single crisis (n=1), not that fixes are good but move slowly. Flint got fixed.
>There is another view point if you are operating on a slim margin business that keeping infrastructure costs tiny is important and that's another case for a faster backend for sure.

Which is why Rails is only suited for SaaS where you get paying user early in the development. If you require traffics for ads revenue it simply doesn't scale. And majority of the Web is still based on ad revenue model.
And what exactly are they supposed to penetrate?
> Sexual orientation has a known association with handedness

That sounds so strange I had to fact-check, and it appears you're right, there does seem to be a measurable association [0].

Perhaps even more interesting, that same article reports: '...the strongest handedness nding for both sexes was a marked tendency for participants who described themselves as ambidextrous also to describe themselves as bisexual'. How weird.

> Given the pretty strong birth order effects in play when it comes to gay men[0], you could probably stop about a quarter of the gay male population from being born just by banning consecutive male births, assuming you were willing to enforce a comically evil level of control over the population.

A one-child policy with exceptions available if the first-born is a girl is a “comically evil level of control” that is hard to imagine being applied in the real world?
This is outdated; the RPI3 image has been removed for 13.0/14.0-CURRENT with a new RPI image that should serve all (~both) aarch64 Pi.
A general solution for Wayback-style long-term distribution and archiving has been spec'd out (as part of the Memento Project), but nobody seems to be adopting it.
My anecdotal experience suggests this seems to be a Cali phenomenon. In Seattle, even with our insane number homeless, addicts, and the uptick in crime this year, we’ve had only a handful of attacks against our Asian citizens. All of which were dealt with swiftly and harshly.
Also a sub-theme in Spike Lee's Do The Right Thing from the late 1980s.
Hackernews starting to read like Blind App
In the past I have used the BitMarket subreddit for the purpose.

I also have a standing open offer of personal proxy for creating accounts for people for personal, non-shady use:

I missed the edit window and I’m disappointed in myself for mentioning it by name. Please just don’t Google this unless you’re prepared for an upsetting image, and even then maybe just skip it. You’re probably not as prepared as you think.
Pretty reasonable take overall.

People shouldn’t forget about the African-American and Korean animosity during the LA riots. This stuff goes way back.
The problem with Stadia is that it's a platform geared for AAA games, but doesn't provide much value for them. It can provide good value for more casual games/gamers, but Google's ego means the service isn't geared for casuals.

When I write Stadia doesn't provide much value for AAA games, we need to look at it from both the gamer and the dev side. For gamers, if money was no object, one is better off with either a decked-out PC (better performance) or a console (wider variety). Stadia's main advantage is potentially being cheaper - which is precisely the gaming crowd which doesn't attract AAA gamedev companies.

For AAA developers, they need to port their game to a different API, then pay the Google tax, in order to appear on a small platform whose users are often drawn in by being cheap and are less likely to pay for your product.

There's no technical advantage for AAA - now that Google has closed their studios, nobody will try to make features that are only possible in cloud gaming in Stadia. If Google couldn't, can you? What happens when you ran into a problem, can you handle Google "support"?

Stadia could be good for casuals. Except it doesn't have any good discoverability features or even a search bar. Cyberpunk 2077 doesn't need discoverability, but indies or anyone searching for them really do. Its payment model (direct 'purchase', no gamepass) is OK for AAA, but not as a good for casuals. And of course, one still needs to port the game which can be difficult and relatively expensive for indies (Luna is just a VM by comparison).

Google could make Stadia better for casuals, but that means doing something less prestigious, no Google engineer will go for that, and they obviously don't understand the business model.

So Stadia is geared for AAA games/gamers, but doesn't provide good features for AAA, and even Google itself couldn't manage to make cloud-gaming-only features. Stadia can be useful for casual gaming, but the platform just isn't geared for that, and Google is unlikely to change that. Likely result is cancellation within a few years.
Ethereum (ETH) and DeFi Pulse Index (DPI). Everything is built on Ethereum so the value of the network will be reflected in ETH. There are a few groups working in how to calculate the total value on chain as well as how this value should be related to and reflected in the price. DPI is a basket of DeFi tokens so you'll receive exposure to the big players through asset. You can think of this like an ETF.
I have friends that are addicted to reddit and their world view is basically the reddit front page. There are many great subreddits, but the front page is completely gamed and owned by a small number of people. Even innocuous subs like pics or mildlyinteresting are coopted at a moments notice to push whatever the prevailing agenda is. There is almost no critical thought or countervailing opinions in discussion. A few years ago you could sort by controversial and see some interesting discussions. Nowadays if you do that there is nothing but toilet humor and other lewd content. I rarely use the site anymore as it is about as subtle as being hit over the head with a lead pipe.
> Many blame the Trump administration for inciting this violence; Trump and numerous other members of his White House staff embraced racist and xenophobic anti-Asian rhetoric language early on in the pandemic, repeatedly referring to COVID-19 as the “China virus” and the “Wuhan virus.”

First of all, geographic names for diseases is a very common pattern. There is no such outrage over Zika, Ebola, or West Nile, or even German Measles. The contrived name COVID was created out of deference to the Chinese Communist Party by the head of the WHO, who, as a former Minister in Ethiopia was the beneficiary of several billion dollars in Chinese investment. Note how he ignored Taiwan’s data and warnings in December 2019 and furthered CCP propaganda early in the pandemic despite independent evidence that contradicted the CCP statements. To suggest the WHO is immune from deep corruption among its top official is to ignore just how corrupt Ethiopia is and the vast influence of China over large swaths of Africa.

And secondly, the majority of these hate crime attacks are in deeply Democrat cities. I doubt Oakland feature many Trump acolytes nor does San Francisco or New York. There is a significant (mostly Vietnamese) population in East Texas and Louisiana (the heart of “redneck Trump country,” yet hate crimes against Asians are rare if they happen at all. So blaming Trump is just conveniently avoiding the racism of so-called liberals. The Jesse Smollett “attack” was in the middle of Chicago at night, yet initially it was blamed on Trump supporters. Is there a single Trump supporter in all of Chicago? How many are in downtown Oakland? Rhetorical question, but the point is that in deeply red areas, how many Asian hate crimes have occurred relative to those in deep blue areas?

Hate crimes against anyone is never over ok. Actually any crime is never ok. But blaming Trump is just lazy. Redneck bubbas aren’t the ones doing these crimes in general. People don’t want to confront the strong racism exhibited by minorities against other minorities. It’s always caused by white Trump supporters apparently.
Sure, but megabytes and terabytes are just arbitrary numbers. There’s nothing where they correspond to a meaningful device limitation. KB should be 2^10 bytes and MB should be 1e6 bytes. There’s no reason to link them.

> Some may rush to blame teachers and call for their additional training as a way to address this alarming finding. Instead, the work must begin with school leaders, to lay the groundwork for teachers’ success.

Wrong. Everything here is wrong. This article is wrong in every way, about everything. This tension is wrong.

The blame is at our feet. Techies. Tech industry. This is malignant systems that the poor world keeps stumbling into, anti-Enlightenment consumerware, a tar-pit that sucks away understanding. This is the cloud. This is what the cloud wants, this is what mainframes want: ignorant, dumb, useless consumers, addicted to shovelware product & Services as a Software Substitutes (SaaSS).

There's countless problems with Steve Jobs, but once upon a time he got it:

> And that’s what a computer is to me. What a computer is to me is it’s the most remarkable tool that we’ve ever come up with, and it’s the equivalent of a bicycle for our minds.

But we are not using computers to expand the mind, to help us roam. We are hiding the computers. We are burying the treasured free-wheeling perspective. We are consumerizing, addicting, making "user friendly" systems at the expense of any honest engagement with computing & systems. Our metrics focus on easy adoption, on how long we keep precious eye-balls attached & engaged. We do not help the user go where they might, in a lightweight adaptable vehicle: we shuttle them about, strapped tightly into well-tested thoroughly designed user-experience vessels on programmed user-experience rails.

In the cloud, every system is unlearnable. There are opaque expert intelligences at every corner, algorithms, deciding what we do and do not experience, and we have no insight into those systems. Knowledge of one app/cloud/system convey no useful expectations or knowledge of another system. All systems are remote, far off, unexploreable, unlearnable. Google, champion of the web, builds countless systems where there are no URLs, where middle clicking doesn't work: Google Play Music, Google Calendar, Youtube Music. Anti-hyper-links, app-links: the old narrow shitty things that defy commonality. Narrow, cloistered, prescribed paths are the only options, the only networking we are afforded. Access to data is only via well-regulated deeply-deeply-intermediated interfaces that we users have no say over. The digital has become that which is unknowable. Weep, techies, our progress has brought unknownable unlearnable din & confinement. What we have brought is the opposite of the potential & promise we carried. We have taken the tools of infinite liberty & freedom & with them we have built the hardest of iron cages.

I’m honestly not sure you’re asking in good faith so I’m not going to add more (and if you are asking in good faith you’ve got plenty in responses to go on). Also I never knew the name of the one that’s permanently burned into my brain and I’m so glad I don’t.
HyperRogue: A puzzle roguelike in a non-Euclidean world
I‘m pretty sure it would be quite easy to find a reasonable number of people to agree with the statement to qualify as „many“.

Assuming we agree that the pandemic is motivating this violence, it also doesn’t seem particularly controversial that a president going out of his way to highlight the geographic origin of the virus may be a contributing factor.
Every company has some dirty bits but the nature and scale of those bits matter.

For example, what ICE does and what China is doing in Xinjiang may be superficially similar but there are also huge differences. For example, ICE incarcerates people who voluntarily enter the United States, while in Xinjiang the CCP incarcerates the native population. Also at any given time the CCP is detaining probably > 10x the number of ICE detainees.

So no, those points do not apply equally to all the companies involved.
Everything you stated, is literally the reason I said there are caveats, I find it interesting you decided to expand on that, but quoted the second part, pretty much out of context.

Nothing you said is wrong per se, but it’s also not entirely accurate. First, there are very good db connection libraries available to Rust users, with good connection pooling options. Second there are good ORMs if that’s something you enjoy using. Third there are excellent application server options in Rocket and Actix available.

Your comment implies these don’t exist. It’s more the edge cases, and the things outside the DB that will be issues. And even there, you’d need to get into specific areas that would cause issues due to lack of available implementations.

In terms of developers out there that want to work with a language, there’s no better response to that than it’s “the most loved language”, and that may translate to many people adopting and expanding its use.
I imagine a great deal of Reddit's value comes from the fact that its front page is essentially a mass viral advertising engine under the guise of original content.

I remember reading only a handful of moderators control all of reddit's most popular subreddits, the ones frequently hitting the front page. These I'm sure are just sock accounts for marketing firms to use when they mass promote content. I wonder how much of the front page is even "real" content these days, not just an advertisement.

The smaller niche communities are what make Reddit great for me. I guess a rigged front page is the price we pay to have so many quality smaller subreddits.

You can blame journalists for that. When hard news stories get littered with opinion and bias, the line between opinion and news gets so blurred as to become non-existent.
