Assuming for a second that the question was asked with legitimate intent: That's the line of reasoning that gets a lot of innocent people treated very very badly based on their socioeconomic status, color of their skin, religion, you name it.

Think of it this way: In 1,000,000 people of race blue, the crime rate is 0.01%. So of those million people: 10 are criminals. In 1,000,000 people of race purple, the crime rate is 0.03%. So 30 are criminals.

All kinds of horrible sounding statistics here: purple people are 3x more likely to be criminal. Purple people neighborhoods have 3x more crime. Purple people 3x more likely to be murderer, drug user, etc.

All of that misleads about the situation: for the most part both purple and blue people are law abiding and any given person you talk to is likely not a criminal.

Now there is a second order problem. (The one that the article is referencing). The truth is that among blue and purple the rate of criminals is much higher. Pretend it's +0.3 for each. So 0.04 and 0.06. But the enforcement of laws at each point in the system are subject to discretion of the enforcer. Does the cop pull you over? Does the cop let you off? Does the prosecutor indict? Does the system give you bail?

Because of focus on "where would they find the most amount of criminal activity?" we are now creating a self fulfilling prophecy where laws are selectively more greatly enforced against purple.

It really isn't that hard and gets even better as you incorporate tools like lombok and mapstruct. There's very little programming to do and with testing I barely bother starting my local docker containers before kicking off pipelines to try in the larger org

Spring monoliths used to be hard but that was a long time ago. My advice is this though. If you have an app written to xml spring stay that way until it's eol. Mixing annotations and xml was hairy and made things answers and documentation less applicable.

Wrt the author sounds like some poor decisions were made. Leaking Spring apis is an obvious nono. Even from v1. Second modularization is for pluggability of common apis not for you to version internal software projects. Stuff like that. If you just sit and whiteboard how you should use this thing you'll see it's not that scary. There's no doubt it's a sharp tool which is good right? If someone really needs certain beans to not show up in specific contexts they're glad it's there as a feature and easily implemented.

I'm glad spring and spring boot are available. I've looked at other alternatives and don't consider them in the same league.
I'm utterly confused by the article, so let me offer the roberebert.com version instead, which is far more succinct and readable:

Sounds like standard retail in the 90's. The place I worked at had percentages you needed to meet for service plans and accessories. We were told to push 4 ink cartridges and photo and regular paper with every printer. Don't forget your gold plated parallel cable! The biggest sellers got promoted to department leads and then assistant store manager.

Amazon isn't anything different. You're bombarded with offers to sign up for the Amazon Visa, "Get $50 off with approval of the Amazon Rewards Visa". They try to sneak in the Asurion warranty. 'Customers who bought this item also bought...' is where they push the high-margin accessories.

They don't make any money on the big items. Nobody ever did. It's the service an accessories.
But the software "that did the crime" is all the same..
I have found out that as soon as you describe your backend as Spring(Boot) application you have already failed at integrating and using Spring(Boot). Ideally, Spring should be extremely thin layer on top of your java application with, ideally, one-line controllers delegating tasks to your services and custom bean factories where you manually wire your services. Also, your java application should not have any Spring related annotations and dependencies. This really shines in hexagonal architectures where Spring is outside and is just used as input/interface to an application.
The (iOS) app is pretty flakey when it comes to syncing the state of the router vs what you see in the app

Part of the problem is that there are three different ways to pause a user (by pausing an individual MAC, pausing a group that the MAC lives in, or the group's bedtime going active). And they overlap in some unknown pattern, which the app can't track well.

>> What does Spring offer you there that you can't do with plain old Java?

Well nothing. Since Spring it written in Java, anyone else using Java can do all of those things.

The things is Spring already does all these things and it does them well. It's well tested and well supported. Most people don't want to do all of this from scratch. So they need a framework anyways. So they choose Spring because it's the leading framework in Java world.

There are a lot of people who already know Spring and can become productive in a Spring codebase fairly quickly.

The phrasing of this message might be quite significant.

Note that the message says that Musk is not joining the board, rather than he's leaving it.

If he never joined, then the 90-day restriction of not acquiring more than 14.9% of Twitter may not apply, which could mean that a fight for how Twitter is controlled might be imminent.
In my small town pop. 50,000 Sundays were super quiet no stores open, no lawnmowers. But the lawnmowers not running wasn't a law it was an unwritten rule agreed upon by all. Now everything is open on Sundays and Sundays are noisy with lawnmowers.

To me it changes the mental end of the week cleanse. When the routine of nearly everyone gets changed it affects everyone. My generation going back to my father's and before kept Sundays quiet. Nothing to do with religion it was just a day everyone seemed to agree was the quiet day. Now in the past 10 or 15 years it's changed dramatically.

Regardless of this study’s validity, is there really any doubt that abstaining from alcohol is beneficial for the society at large?

By the way, none of the other “chemical substances” celebrated in this website,

1- Have an industry the size of alcohol’s. A lot of money depends on normalizing alcohol consumption as much as possible.

2- Are as accessible and affordable.

3- Are involved in as many cases of violent crime such as domestic violence, DUI, etc.

4- Are linked to fatal diseases due to heavy use over a long time.
Yeah, I don't want to pick on OP, but i's disappointing to see how even in a forum called "Hacker News" the prevailing mentality is of apathy and/or conformism.

It's almost like all the talk about of "it's cool to be a nerd" and "we need to have more room for different voices" is just corporate-washed propaganda and not the real values of this generation...
Show me a complaint about "dependency injection" as a concept, and I'll show you someone who does little or no unit testing.

The only real ways to do it are dependency-injecting mocks, or else maybe a Python-style "patch" approach where you're literally overwriting portions of the code under test at runtime. I've seen the latter kinda-sorta work in Python shops, but the former is far more sane.

While there are several useful insights here, I think the absolutist stance misses the mark and is overgeneralizing. While yes, you could (in theory) research the sources, the policies, the procedures, the contributors, the organization... It can save a lot of time (and be a lot more fun) to try things out in practice. Just be ready to wipe and start from scratch when you realize it's time to cut your losses.

The advice to stick with independent distros is a good one, in most situations. But the only way I can confidently agree with the author is through experience with the alternatives. That was not time lost.

If I'd recommend a daily driver for a very non-technical friend who wants to keep using their laptop that's effectively EOL under Windows? A non-independent distro makes sense. And how would I be able to make an informed recommendation? I could try it out myself. Maybe on an isolated mediaplayer, a use-case specific VM, or an embedded dev project, where stability and security don't matter that much. When the stakes are low and I enjoy trying new things to get a feel for the community and ecosystem, distro-hopping can be nice.

Many when I got new hardware in the past, I installed a new distro either on that or whatever it was replacing. Most of them didn't stick but some did - this is how you can learn.

You also get to know about the ways of the other independent distros. If you're mostly an Arch+Fedora person, for example, maintaining a Debian installation is great to widen your experience and understand where each makes sense and fits.

I've installed more derivatives than I can remember and I can tell through experience why I wouldn't recommend most of them. When Mint had zero issues during the same timespan that system upgrades completely broke the vanilla Manjaro desktop for the third time, I can now make more informed decisions. I would have no idea about the difference in quality, testing and maintenance if I hadn't actually been running them for a significant time myself.

Asking someone about their dist of choice can absolutely be useful - if you understand where they're coming from and/or they understand your situation and needs. It all depends on context.

It can make sense to outsource some of the bootstrapping and user configuration. Just be aware of the tradeoffs. And do it because it's fun, not (just) because you believe the grass is greener.

I mean you do realize that many complex web apps use multiple frameworks for different things, right? Personally I don't like Java and haven't used spring, but take a modern web app and you could be using something like express/fastify, react + next, an ORM, a schema validator, and quite a bit of other domain specific pieces of functionality.

Ofc these aren't all "frameworks" in the traditional sense, but that line is often arbitrary and I think this interpretation of OP's usage of the word is the most generous one.

Can you not just send e-mail with your IBAN asking for donations?

If its so much money that it seriously impacts your taxes that seems like a great thing. At least that wouldn't be a big deal unless you get some serious cash.

If you have the email of 250k users who all don't want to deal switching service. I can imagine getting a fair amount with a once a year ask for donations. Like more then making it a paid service, people usually are happy to give some money for things they use for free if its useful.

Don't agree here. People can give valuable experience on their chosen solution. Even if they chose it for different reasons or even incorrect reasons, they can still share their experience.
Inspector visualeditor for web like vb6
#Inspector
simple html visual editor

this is a simple program in pure javascript / html that is used to create window applications similar to the old visual basic 6.

see demo https://vroby65.github.io/Inspector/

Inspector

The purpose of this program is to simulate an IDE in the style of visualbasic in html / javascript environment. Programs will use forms similar to those of visual basic to contain controls which are nothing more than html elements. The editor allows you to program the events of the objects and to save, test and export the product code.

In drafting the code, 3 new commands are available that simplify programming

getId ('object id')

which is in fact the simplified version of

document.getElementById ('')

include ('path_of_bookshelf')

which allows you to load an external library.

style('path_of_stylesheet')

to load a stylesheet. Style and include work well on a test mode but not work in edit mode.

The ide is composed of

topbar
toolbar
screen
inspector
object treeview
properties
envents
topbar Located at the top and divided into a menu and a toolbar, it contains the commands for saving, loading, exporting and testing applications The drop-down menu contains the main commands and secondary commands.

toolbar Located on the left side of the ide it contains all the elements that can be inserted in a program. the first element is the form, that is to say a real draggable window. To insert an element, select the parent element on the screen or in the treeview and click on the element to add.

screen It is the center of the screen where objects are placed. It has no properties and is not exported

inspector the right part of the ide is occupied by this tool which is divided into three parts

object treeview displays the tree of objects on the screen and allows you to choose the current element

properties displays the properties of the selected object and allows you to edit the values

events allows you to edit the code of an event of the selected object. The last item, on the other hand, edits the special _script which is common and global for the whole program but only works in the test or exported phase

This is all easy and achievable, should you pursue the path. Incremental improvements onto an existing, ancient, paper-oriented business process are easily possible.

- Print off online orders as facsimile mail-in orders for processing
- Prices weren't fancy real-time updates back then, or didn't have to be if they were

You're looking at the state of today and assuming this is as it was on the nascent web.

It wasn't.

Yes different powers have different considerations how could it be otherwise?

For the police specifically, they have willingly entered a role that carries risks of violence, ostensibly in the name of public safety. They have training to understand and mitigate those risks. And so the burden on them to prevent violence should be very high.

Similarly, a volunteer soldier who kills an adversary in war may not be culpable for murder but they can't plausibly claim self defense either. The expectations and burdens that people carry highly depend on their powers and the decisions that led them there.

The mistake potter made wasn't drawing the taser instead of the gun. It was in believing that, if one of them was to get fucked up, she had the right to make it the other guy. She was the only one of them that had consented to violence, by joining the police force.
People did say exactly the same for regular cars. The result was a massive advertising campaign to establish the concept of jaywalking, and to make the street the sole domain of the car.

I can easily imagine a similar campaign to label pedestrians as irresponsible for walking outside without an ultrasonic emitter, or a lidar reflector, or whatever integrates with the self-driving system. Whatever shifts the responsibility away from the car and onto the deceased.
Worse - imagine you're an FBI field agent, and your "kick in the front door" operation turned into a "SS agents and FBI agents shooting each other" train wreck - because there was a Secret Service protection detail on the other side of that door, and an agent or few got a very fast judgement call wrong, in the heat of the moment.

Or similar, with some VIP who's got trigger-happy private security - because he knows that (say) Mr. Putin would much prefer that he was dead.
Agreed, it's about the magnitude of the impact. A massive economic crash would affect people in the countryside too but the difference is that there is a much higher chance to survive by downgrading your lifestyle. As a basic example, you can't go fishing in the city to catch your own food, especially if there are millions of people competing to fish in the same river. There are also no wild fruit trees or farms there. Only way to survive would be cannibalism - That's what happened to Leningrad/St Petersburg during WW2 as a result of a military siege.
