I was surprised to learn that overall, the U.S. spends about 0.8% of GDP on policing, which places it in about the middle of OECD countries.

https://www.cfr.org/backgrounder/how-police-compare-differen...

Budget seems like the least of our problems in fixing U.S. policing, though I recognize in some cities it may be more of a problem than others. The biggest problem seems to be the huge amount of resistance from police to any change at all.

I think things like that are more a result of how information gets disseminated, and how it's framed, than bloodthirst. I'm sure if you took the people that hung that banner and made them hold hand with one of the students as they died, their enthusiasm would quickly fade. The word 'death' is just an abstraction that feels small when you're young, healthy, and haven't had to watch it happen. It's only easy to look at it like a point on a scoreboard when you don't know anything about it.

I think a lot of the divisiveness is a result of the same effect. It's easy to dismiss other people's perspective and think they are 'just stupid or malicious' when you don't know them. We need to get back to assuming the people that disagree with us are potentially as smart as we are, but with different values or information.

How much of a swing in pricing are we talking about here? Because that storage mechanism is maybe 80% efficient. So the price swing would have to be at least that big to break even. And in that case, if they are helping to smooth out swings in demand that are that large... Sounds like they're providing a valuable service.

Well the article uses the example of swapping `is_published` for `published_at` — with a boolean you could have:

* NULL — never published (e.g. draft)
* true — live now
* false — previously live but explicitly unpublished

Which you miss if just a date. Similarly he talks about `is_signed_in` — NULL/true/false let's you model the case where a user has never signed in (e.g. an admin created your account but you've never used it) but NULL/timestamp missed this

Human language and animal language also differ in that people use grammars which recurse which shows a sense of abstraction (as you stated) and also objectivity.

Do you see a narrow difference between human output and animal output? Would you consider that difference somehow not "useful"? I think the bird and bee examples do not provide a compelling sense of language in the same way human talking does because animal language appears tightly bounded and human language through its recursive features appears possibly limitless.

As a guy born in Turkey I’m happy that this is finally getting the recognition it deserves.

On the other hand, finding any neutral resource about the First World War in Turkey is hard to come by. The best resource I’ve found so far is written by a German General called Otto Liman von Sanders, he wrote a book called “Five Years in Turkey” [0] talking about 1913 - 1918. It at least has some parts on the events which will end up in the Armenian Genocide and the hate against Greece and Greeks.

Sorry to digress but it’s important to mention that, the hate against Greeks will take an ugly turn in 1955 [1]

Of course, AZ also lost its production capacity even if it was going to be approved, since it was dependent on the troubled Emergent facility which has been taken over but J&J and dedicated exclusively tonthe J&J vaccine, and has not located new production facilities.

This is about as false as a statement can get.

The story describes positive change and this is good. However the detail is rather dark.

“On Jan. 1, a Newark officer fatally shot Carl Dorsey III, of South Orange, during a confrontation in the South Ward, a case that’s being investigated by Attorney General”

The link there says that officers arrived on Jan 1 2021 at 12:03am.

So 3 minutes after 2020 they shot someone dead.

>Newark PD still arrests Black people at a much much higher rate than white people.

And if it's the case that people in the city's black community are committing arrestable offenses (however stupid some definitions of what is an offense for which you can be arrested and charged with for are), then what should the department do? Not arrest people for doing things it's been ordered to arrest people for doing just because it's bad PR?

It's apparently not popular to mention and undoubtedly there are many social victimization factors at work contributing to it, but young men in the black community really do commit more violent crime and crime of many other types than do many young men in a number of other ethnic communities.
Hi,
I faced this situation after a Show HN (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20105567), all I had to do is simply to add a CDN (Cloudflare or AWS Cloudfront) in front of the servers in order to serve the static assets and pages from the CDN, and the API requests by the servers.

If you are not familiar with CDNs yet, learn how works the Cache-Control HTTP header (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Ca...) so you can send a different header for API responses than for static assets responses. Then learn how to purge the CDN after each release.

I would recommend to start with Cloudflare as it's cheaper, and easier to use.

A CDN with correct Cache-Control headers and Heroku Autoscaling should bring you very far in term of traffic you can handle.
I collect a piece of trivia every day in 2021
I applaud your optimism and boundless faith in humanity.

But as a POC, I point out that America has a long tradition of taking children to witness lynchings, and the children would cheer. Or to beat foxes to death with sticks.

I don't think it’s as simple as “people don’t have emppathy when death is abstract and indirect.” Lots of people don’t have empathy when they’re socially conditioned to believe a certain type of person is a subhuman.

Today, we have police suffocating citizens and murdering adolescents, and there’s a certain type of person who cheers this, provided the victims are member sof a class deemed “subhuman."

I do not believe for a moment that witnessing the murders would change their minds, because even as video circulates showing the murder happening, they continue to cheer.

---

I also don’t think we can conflate this with arguments about “people you disagree with.” We’re not talking about people sitting down and debating free love or long hair.

We’re talking about people who believe that other people are literally a disease infecting society that should be exterminated as quickly as possible, preferably in such a way that it sends a message to others.
Because mobile computers are the antithesis of personal computers -- you don't get to really own and control the very expensive device you bought. That people accepted this is an example of how truly powerless (or just ignorant) consumers are.

The numbers in this article seem off. 250kW (peak power) for 11s (time at peak power) is 2.75 MJ. That's only about 51 10000mAh D batteries. Of course, the peak power of the gravity battery is much higher than the chemical batteries, but still.
Since you mention domain issues, I’ll also note that all the examples given are tracking system events, not domain events. For domain events, a system timestamp is usually incorrect.

The date something occurs in the real-world can be different from when the data entry was done. If you blindly convert Booleans into timestamps without that differentiation, you’ll end up with misleading data.

Ask HN: How can a startup in home security gain trust from users?
Hi all, we are working on a software for home security use cases like human detection or facial recognition. We focus on privacy and process all the video offline on-device. But there is a problem: livestreaming is almost a must-have feature for this software. But livestreaming requires a server for routing. Up until now our software works without a server, but the user can only view livestream on a local Wi-Fi network.

I read many threads on HN and see that many peoples are concerned if their video footage is streamed over the internet. So the question is: How can we gain trust from the user that we do not collect any of their data?

On the somewhat-related topic of measuring things, interesting book by Simon Winchester called The Perfectionists:

> The rise of manufacturing could not have happened without an attention to precision. At the dawn of the Industrial Revolution in eighteenth-century England, standards of measurement were established, giving way to the development of machine tools—machines that make machines. Eventually, the application of precision tools and methods resulted in the creation and mass production of items from guns and glass to mirrors, lenses, and cameras—and eventually gave way to further breakthroughs, including gene splicing, microchips, and the Hadron Collider.

[…]

> As he introduces the minds and methods that have changed the modern world, Winchester explores fundamental questions. Why is precision important? What are the different tools we use to measure it? Who has invented and perfected it? Has the pursuit of the ultra-precise in so many facets of human life blinded us to other things of equal value, such as an appreciation for the age-old traditions of craftsmanship, art, and high culture? Are we missing something that reflects the world as it is, rather than the world as we think we would wish it to be? And can the precise and the natural co-exist in society?
