I think it’s become tragically obvious that a whole lot of children are born to parents who should’ve never had children and have no business being parents. These children end up dumped on educators with zero support at home, and so little social system support we could also say it’s zero.

This isn’t nature versus nurture per se (although I believe the data does show some ability and intelligence is genetic/inherent), but that it takes a lot for a human child to succeed unless they’re at the higher end of the bell curve (and even then it’s no guarantee).

Files have some drawbacks... they're difficult for multiple people to work on together (slides). They're often not easy to organize, and they're often not available where you want them.

It's the exact opposite: the work arounds people come up with to solve the Tree problem described in the post is a two way binding, which is already difficult to reason about. The model with continuations restores one way data flow, making it easy to reason about again.

The useEffect/setState rerendering catastrophe is exactly hard to reason about because it involves lots of intermediate states nobody wants. Most people don't realize this is what happens either. Again, more difficult than just having initial render and subsequent render both update immediately.

The morph problem is so subtle, most cases I encounter, people don't even realize their entire app is remounting when the route changes. Their mental model of React is wrong, it's too optimistic. Morph is entirely safe to do.

It sounds like you either skimmed it superficially, or don't understand what it's trying to teach.

I have dealt with a lot of junior react devs in the last few years, and IMO the react team has a few blind spots which you run into when you try to make desktop-quality software with it. Look inside complex react libraries and you find they are completely ignoring all the supposed rules, so they can present an actual workable API on the outside.
I think you're thinking domain based email reputation lists but commenting on the IP reputation conversation while also conflating what Abusix is doing in this comment chain with what UCEPROTECT is doing in the post and forming a conclusion from hand picked pieces of the conglomerate. For the Abusix portion related to this thread check out their response here as it goes into much better detail with what I originally described https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30227886 (note: I'm unaffiliated, I work for a generic network VAR and we don't even sell their service for email).

These domain based lists are also a thing but you need to have a pretty sizable volume to become trusted in those lists as anyone can register a domain in seconds, none of the above will have gained trust on them.

The whitelist payment option for arbitrary hosts (which Abusix doesn't offer) is a workaround to create a publicly registered identity with some stake to tie the reputation to. I mean it can be other things to, scammy rackets exist too, but you can't just claim it's a poor excuse without offering a better answer that solves the same problem.

Speaking of spammers are the ones that created the problem because people started using individual network block lists before companies started aggregating and mediating them. You're welcome to make your own community replacement solution but the problem is the replacement has to be reliable enough other mail administrators want to use it not just nice for the occasional legitimate guy that wants to run email out of his house and be trusted by default. Also it's a lot of work to mediate.
Gettr is the only one of those you can really be booted off of.

Mastodon is federated. You can host your own node if you want to. Matrix too, but I wouldn't call it a platform. It's more like XMPP.
That depends on the definition of 'actually works' and vaccine. Both which need redefining in the new scheme.

Personally I'll grant that wearing gloves helps prevent frostbite. But I wouldn't make people in Hawaii wear them.

I think you have to look at the groups most at risk and it turns out its really old people with multiple morbidity either already in hospital near death or coming in from nursing homes.

I just don't see how showing some statical benefit to that group translates to general healthy much younger population.

And even than, I think you could show a statistical benefit to giving two doses of a laxative in fighting covid in 80+ year olds, if all you counted was the health outcomes in the stronger surviving subpopulation that survived the laxative two weeks later.

I've taken enough statistics at university to know I can safely ignore anything that isn't a double blind study.

So lets just say it's debatable.
I wouldn't say slowly. I feel like these types of posts only became common starting several months ago. I haven't run numbers, but I feel like the number of "Ask HN" posts has dramatically increased in the past couple of months. Maybe @dang can provide some insight.

That said, people need to learn introspection. All these questions are answerable if you sit down and think about things for awhile. Life is not mysterious; it's often boring and repetitive. Life is not supposed to be one dopamine hit after the next. Accept this, and a lot of the drudgery makes sense.
"Know thy self"

Others can only grasp at reasons you find this difficult, only you will really know. Think about what it is that puts you off doing it, how does it go when you have done it in the past, what (if any) direct or indirect consequences are there afterwards.

Motivation is a key part. If you aren't a fan of the colleagues who ask for help then it's harder to be motivated. Especially if you think they are ungrateful (although it appears in your case that those who help are recognised for it).

The other aspect is that people asking for help are often lazy or at least have not tried sensible steps before asking - there is sometimes a legitimate concern that if you help someone for one thing, they'll be back with a dozen inappropriate requests for help and this is more likely the less effort they've put in. This is where it helps to have a clear sense of what is and is not reasonable for help - with my skillsets I can usually help people with a huge swath of problems even where I know less than they do about the topic but typically one needs to politely draw boundaries (usually) or you end up making no progress.

Back on the point about how it goes when you help people, it's worth thinking about how well / badly it goes. Is it easy or is the communication awkward? Do you feel you are knowledgeable enough to help or does it show up your limitations? Do you get shy? Do you resent them during or after it? Do you struggle to make the connection between helping and having a positive outcome? Would you be uncomfortable helping even if there was never going to be a clear benefit for you personally (ie altruism)

These are all really things only you can answer. Some of them will only be clear if you give it a go sometimes. I'd suggest you have a go and after try some introspection. It'll probably be fine. Remember: nothing ventured, nothing gained!
Surprisingly colorful account of ED50's origins:

https://www.gim-international.com/content/article/european-d...

Toward the end is info on ED50's relationship to WGS-84.
My wife is a college prep (public charter) high school math and physics teacher. She noted recently, that she could make as much money working at a local department store, or fast food joint, as she does at the school. And when she'd return home, she could put the other work out of her mind.

She works about 14 hour days during the week, and 12 hours per day on weekends. Hourly equivalent is about 1/2 the department stores.

She told me about the new safety policy the police advise to use in the event of a shooter, after the Oxford MI incident (about an hour from us). The idea is to barricade the door, get anything you can use as a weapon, and defend the kids. Alternatively, you can break out a window and run away. Of course, they won't let the teachers open carry weapons, which, honestly, would turn the soft targets into very hard ones.

Aside from that obvious solution, the problem is, what do you do if you have a kid who doesn't want to leave for any reason? This literally becomes a trolley problem, decide whose life is more important. Should she stay with the reluctant child, or should she save her own life and as many of the others as she can?

And I don't know if I mentioned it, but the pay really really sucks.

Add to this, parents who don't work with the teachers to help their kids. Often major communication problems with parents who don't speak english. Parents who only sometimes take their kids to school. Kids who just don't care enough to do any work, and then come begging at the end of every quarter/semester for "extra credit", which they are ineligible for, given that they have not completed a majority of their work. Often any work at all.

I hear about this. Every day. It is burning her out.

But more than that. I see what these schools are producing, see the attempts not to make the kids unhappy by giving them a 50% score for doing no work, not even showing up to class, or tests. Letting them retake tests to improve grades. All these little things we do to coddle, and protect people from the consequences of their own decisions.

And I think what sort of adults we are unleashing. Which explains much of what we see in society now.
Welcome to Illinois. More school districts per capita than anywhere else. Everyone gets their own highly inefficient fiefdom.
There's also historical precedent for classifying encryption software as speech (at least when printed in book form), so the 1st amendment should apply too. Then of course there are 5th amendment issues with requiring people to disclose their encryption keys.

While we're at it, the 3rd amendment forbids the quartering of soldiers in homes, which, as others have pointed out, is at least analogous to requiring government-approved spying software on our phones.

> How we have a massive trade defect leading to an extremely large negative net-foreign-investment balance? Does it makes sense to you that countries that are much "poorer" than us are lending us money?

If you're against this, what you want is more inflation, not less. This is the entirely intentional result of the strong dollar policy.
At that time, this was the due process: ask the passenger to leave, and if they refuse, apply force. I'm arguing that this is the appropriate process. And in general I'm arguing for less regulation of how people resolve private disputes over business arraignments.
Why are you hesitant? Ask yourself that and write out what feelings/thoughts you have associated with helping people in this situation. Envy? Insecurity that those you help will exceed your abilities? Impostor syndrome? Etc.

You won't be able to come up with a good path forward without being introspective and asking yourself these questions.
My father in Belarus in eighties and nineties used to travel few times per week about 35 milles in one direction by a local electric train with overhead wires (called "elektrichka" in Russian). Not a single time the train was cancelled. Even delays more then 10-15 minutes were extremely rare including on the days with heavy snow or strong wind. Even all maintenance were done at night and never disrupted the traffic.

So if 40 years ago Soviet Union managed that, I am sure US should be capable to build electrical lines that are not destroyed by a bad weather.
> the main problems? Inability to punish students,

Is this some kind of joke? If you want to lead with _that_, I hope you never are put in a position of power over any kid ever again.
"you need a masters degree to even be a teacher"

Really? The states I've been in doesn't require it. Generally a bachelor degree with a teaching certificate is all you need.
What if you were distracting and slowing down many other students?

I think there’s ways to address the need to ask questions here. Forums and discussion pods for instance.
Even if the students won't do their homework, they're better off doing discussion and practice in the classroom than just lectures.
Doh, good point! A stamp of a signature would perhaps be more fitting.
Not even the best public transportation lets you travel fully on your terms. You are still dictated by it’s schedule and route, and the presence of other people who may or may not be nice traveling companions. You have to wait in the rain, snow, or heat (less bad if transit sticks to schedule, but US transit often does so poorly).

That said, I could happily embrace living without a car and using just transit in a city like Tokyo or Seoul. But I don’t feel the same doing so in any city (or metro region) in the US - not even NYC which supposedly has the “best” public transit in the country, but still leaves a lot to be desired.
Lovely initiative, even though I can't think of ideas at the moment (just wanted to applaud).
Do you find the same with Google?

Google seems to periodically block me outright, sometimes I can get around it by switching servers but it becomes infuriatingly obvious the high percentage of sites that integrate and depend on Google (fonts, CDNs, map apis when there isn't even a frickin map in the page)... when everything just hangs on foo-api.google.com you start hating Google.
The fact we call teachers "teachers" does not inherently mean anything valuable is being taught. Rote knowledge--easily accessible online--is not teaching, in my opinion. Where are the life skills? Where is the wisdom? It doesn't exist in school.

The entire model of how humans pass on knowledge and experience to others needs to change. To what, I'm not sure, but what I do know is the current system is woeful.
Quite an absurd misinterpretation of what I said. The only point I made was that the mimicry of spoken language is what gives context to allow us to learn problem solving more easily. Nobody is trying to go into the intricacies of how programming languages are developed, because that's not the point of the conversation.

But thank you for acting like a classic HN elitist who thinks that pedantry for the sake of pedantry is more important than anything else in the world.

Teachers are paid quite poorly, expected to do a ton of work, beyond their purview, unsupported by their administration, and regulated like crazy.

It's a labor of love. People become teachers because they love the idea of being in that profession.

Unfortunately, governments, corporations, parents, and even students, see this as carte blanche to pay them even worse, and yank all support from them.

IT is a crazy field. People make a lot of money here, and we are used to being given a fairly free rein. Most folks in IT like their jobs, don't question whether or not we made the right life choices, are valued by our employers and customers, and, on top of that, we make great money.

Night and day. It's fairly hard for people to understand what teachers face.

I know quite a few.

Despite all the crying about teaching jobs being open, it's actually really difficult for teachers to find work; especially work that doesn't involve a two-hours-each-way commute, to teach in neglected urban schools, while being paid far too little to live near their work.

It's a tough gig.
wild guess: the person who make this likes girls
You come off as somewhat defensive, dismissive, uncaring. Which are normal and justifiable human emotions when someone is criticizing your creations. But "the crowd" really doesn't like to see them expressed. So it's a good rule of thumb when posting these things in public to err on the side of being gracious and grateful. Like it or not, it's just good PR.
> Wealth tax still seems highly unpopular in the general public, not to mention on HN. I think the average user here is more interested in bringing home FAANG salaries than solving the wealth gap.

I’m more interested in making the existing set of taxes more equitable and less favorable to capital (extending equal taxation to capital income as labor income) than adding additional layers of complexity to the tax system.
Thanks.

There does still seem to be controversy on this point in tooling though? Popular tools like proj and pyproj now confusingly return different ordering for a different CRS, and a diff between UI conventions and code etc is really unfortunate and likely to cause bugs, so it doesn’t seem completely settled. e.g.

Wait till you go past 40 and they start calling you "sir" at Starbucks :)

There are two sources of meaning in life: being self-focused and trying to achieve your own goals (like going to Mars) OR being others-focused and trying to achieve something good for them (like parenting kids or helping a group who can't help themselves like curing a disease, fostering animals, etc)

The former tends to start feeling hollow after 30 although some people never lose that kind of drive (and nothing wrong with that)

Living for something beyond yourself is a good way to spend a life and brings much joy you can't get or buy any other way.

The two are very similar in the end, they differ by how you define the success criteria.
Asking here in case others find it interesting. Can you share more about your experiences building in Russia, especially more unique challenges you faced (e.g. harder to literally get funds from foreign clients, regulatory environment, etc.). Are there things solved there that you are shocked you haven't seen elsewhere? What is your feeling about the current buildup of troops around Ukraine & what do Russian friends/family/colleagues feel about it?
did you read and understand the article?...i got out because I COULD get out...lots of teachers cannot get out or are pushed out before they can find an exit option. You think you understand, but you do not...

Privatization changes the incentive structure for administration. If the school needs to turn a profit they are less likely to hire unnecessary or incompetent staff. That is just a waste of money. Public schools get away with hiring excess staff because they get paid by the number of kids in the school regardless of performance.

I disagree that this is bad form, but it’s a little shallow unless you’re contributing something along with your “I agree.” I also strongly disagree that downvotes should be used for disagreement. Downvotes are for discouraging low-value posts, not making things you disagree with disappear from the discussion.
Those aren't very good examples, because a) you're giving the conspiracy theorists too much credit and b) the facts changed. The vaccines were incredibly effective - against OG covid. Then the variants came along. Feel free to correct my memory, but the conspiracy theorists weren't being censored for shouting that the vaccine's theoretical efficiency was under threat from possible future mutations - they were saying idiotic stuff like that it's a government conspiracy to inject us all with mind control drugs.

My dream car would be an electric sports car which other than the electric drivetrain, has a feature set circa the early 2000s. The only “modern” features I’d want is a dumb LCD screen to connect CarPlay to. Or better yet, a simple slot to prop up an iPad.
This is how the American higher education system works.

The problem with this approach for public schools in the US is that there are multiple taxing authorities involved in determining how much $$$ gets attached to a student, and most of it comes from local property taxes.

Locomotives would also have much easier time using hydrogen fuel cells. They already have fixed custom gas stations.
Vaccines have a liability shield. Your only restitution is filing a claim with the NVICP, which is like applying for social security. They'll deny you as long as they can and then give you the bare minimum once approved, but no where near the amount that was taken from you and often not enough to even survive.
Privatize schools.
Where are you looking to build it? Is the money literally for construction or retrofitting an existing space or other stuff? Coliving.com had a guide on some of this but maybe it's old hat for you https://coliving.guide/
> The thing is, we have actual data on a lot of these policies.

I am very skeptical of this - not that we have data, but that the data suggests such a clear and simple relationship that is open to exploitation via policy. There is a long history of people trying to exploit correlations and realizing that the correlation breaks down whenever they try to turn this into a policy lever.

There is also the issue that foodstamps might be beneficial up to a point, but when you flood the system with foodstamps they are no longer beneficial and can be harmful -- there are regimes of effectiveness.
I mean, Brady's an exception of course but quarterbacks and kickers can trend significantly older than most other positions in football because they're highly protected by both the rules and their teams and play designs because they're essential scoring roles and their value is largely accuracy, not physically beating an opponent one on one. The same is not true for most of the other players on the field.
It's a little absurd that this needs to be explained to adults.
