The Police seems to be in an impossible situation: if they don’t try to fight crime in a minority neighbourhood then they are “racist” (focusing on the rich neighbourhoods). If they do try to fight crime in a minority neighbourhood then they are also “racist” (for “targeting” specific races/cultures). It is especially difficult if they try to fight crime in a violent dangerous minority neighbourhood where every routine check/stop can turn into a deadly gunfight in seconds. There are minority neighbourhoods where 97% of violent crime/murders are committed by people of the same race/culture living in that neighbourhood. And yet a single Police incident gone wrong will completely overshadow the reality of this. Imagine being a police officer risking your life every single day. Knowing that the next person you stop might try to do his/her best to kill you. While also knowing that any mistake you make will be headline news around the world. It’s an impossible situation.

You've now switched to a different argument, but okay. You think the state doesn't have just as great an interest in vetting who is allowed to educate and look after children, as in who may own a gun? Do I have to link to the many stories of teachers found abusing students before you will stop pretending to not understand?
I don’t even read the unherd links anymore. They’re invariably just preachy, resent-saturated tirades that exemplify most of the qualities they’re railing against.

It’s admittedly amusing to read extremists from one side being mad about the extremism from the other, but I just don’t have the energy for that kind of energy anymore.
Mr. Rayman naturally focuses on the astronomical use of pi.

My sincere suggestion is to drop the "falling in love" requirement. Almost ~60 years on this rock and I've to the conclusion that "I really like him/her" is by far the sounder foundation for lasting love than "I am in love with him/her".

Love is a flower that grows from the ground of intimate friendship.

p.s. Your post inspired the idea of "Date HN: Who wants to date?"
I used to work in desktop support. One of our supervisors insisted that we have documentation on everything, even simple things like how to install a printer on a windows 95 workstation. The documentation had to include screen shots.

So rather than employ people who either new how to install printers on windows or could work it out (follow the prompts in the wizard) for themselves we employed people who would happily follow the step by step instructions in our documentation.

Everything fell apart when we migrated to Windows XP, where the instructions no longer worked, the screenshots were out of date and those support personnel who used to rely on all the documentation for step by step on how to install printers were left scratching their heads.

Documentation is great, but its main aim should be to detail the outcome required, why it's required and any unique situations that the reader should be aware of.

Ask HN: How fast is your Spring Boot startup time?
Assuming you've already bootRun or compiled once and are starting the app again, what's your startup time? I'm currently working on an app where it's taking ~30 seconds to get started and wondering what the lower bound could look like with the proper optimizations. I'm generally happy with Spring Boot + Kotlin but find it hard to cope with the turn around time for updates to take effect. With spring boot dev tools enabled, the hot reloading seems to take about 10 seconds. Might not be all that long objectively or compared to how long it used to take, but it certainly feels slow relative to backends in JS, Python, Ruby, etc.
The school I help at has these metal chairs with plastic inserts for the final inch of the leg. One leg will regularly snap off enough that they cut the rest of them off at the wood shop and put them back in the classroom, it's kinda funny seeing like half the chairs being a inch too short.

Not only referential integrity, but also not supporting Read-Your-Writes[1]. Cloud scale! Nothing like,

1. Create resource. Success.

2. Attempt to use/reference first resource in another resource/call: Failure: Referenced resource does not exist. Odd.

3. Create resource again? Failure! Resource already exists.

Our scripts have so many retry loops and arbitrary pauses mixed in to account for garbage like this. Distinguishing "did the call fail?" from "or is the system just lost in the land of eventual inconsistency?" ugh.

And yeah. shout out to Azure AAD where I can have a role assignment that is granting permissions to "unknown". We call them ghosts.

The difference is that once men get past 30 and testosterone starts tapering off the desire to enter relationships drops off a cliff too.

I don't mean to suppose these structures are actually common, I'm using them to illustrate how the concept of the internet having a size falls apart when you start considering the practical matters of counting how big the internet is. It hinges on a model of files-on-a-server that isn't how websites have worked in the last 30-or-so years.

Counting websites, or even delineating where a website starts or ends is difficult, as you can on the one hand have a single server hosting infinite websites like I described. Services like cloudflare also throw a spanner in the works, if you think maybe using server IP would help. Domain name isn't much use either, as that would discount hosting services like neocities.

There's a similar fractal of weird cases with counting documents on a given webserver (and by the extension the internet).
I think that's the point. The idea is to come up with every reason to deny people. It's a backdoor handgun ban unless you're wealthy and well connected enough to deserve one.

If they want to do that then why not run it like an assembly line? That’sa proven technology that allows you to create a complex output with minimal training of each employee. Both setups probably require a similar number of people but the assembly line would be less prone to failure since you wouldn’t have to maintain a byzantine codex of conflicting rules and procedures.
> In the case of Facebook, the motivating app was Ads Manager

Google created Flutter and its native language Dart in the process of developing AdWords. I don't know if it was the 'motivating' application for Flutter+Dart, but the first public exposure of Flutter happened less than two years before mobile AdWords was implemented with it.

I guess selling ads it a pretty complicated business if you need to create frameworks and programming languages to pull it off.

I would agree that "average parent" is not the same set as "average homeschool parent." If you are saying that the "average homeschool parent I know" is better educated and better off financially than the "average homeschool parent," that is possible, but given the diverse range of homeschool parents I know across the country, probably not as likely as you would think.

That's 100% reasonable. What's not reasonable is spending time to write a blog post in a tone that makes it seem like the product "is bad". The may not like it but the author wasn't a customer. It's the classic "I would buy it/pay for it if it only had XYZ or did/didn't do ABC." When in reality they were never going to pay for it, they just wanted something simple and free, which is 100% fine.
Right, so you're telling me it's the latter case.

That means you can't tell what the correct chain is just by counting hashes. You have to ask someone what the currently correct software is, and then you can find the correct chain for that software.

I'm pretty surprised.

I recently did the same, and hand's down, the vue ecosystem is weak.

Vue is difficult to work with (unable to render content without a functional component wrapper, poor support for style libraries like tailwind), and the state management ecosystem is fractured between vuex and pinia. Worse, much of the help online is for old versions (vue2). Storybook 'out of the box' is broken and doesn't work at all (unable to resolve '@/...' imports).

It's been painful.

> Everything is intuitive and I am not googling days to fix tooling issues

That has not been my experience; I spent literally 3 days customizing my storybook install to make it work, and digging through 'try this...' threads on https://github.com/storybookjs/storybook/issues/11989
People want a spectrum of things. Often, “defund the police/ICE” means “replace them with something better”, not eliminating them and forgetting about their original purpose. A few (or many, depending who you ask) bad apples spoiled the batch.
Mass shooters sometimes advertise their plans or at least sentiments over social media so it's reasonable part of security assessment.

> and the death spiral begins.

The death spiral becomes visible, really. The gun had already been fired, the body just hadn’t hit the ground yet.

I must say these failure modes are much worse than the ones I’ve experienced, which maybe I should be grateful for, I’d have to think about this.
Generally I’ve seen a slower burn, where the remaining fiscal year plays out with soothing tones and promises of not changing things, and if money doesn’t magically appear in their accounts, which why would it? Then they don’t give you money for some of the things you usually do and while they technically didn’t tell you not to do them, if there’s no money you don’t get to do them.

I don’t know which business school teaches people to say “ah can you smell that fresh mountain air” while they have their hands wrapped tightly around your neck but that’s some gaslighting BS that I hope nobody experiences, but I know people have. Best I can do is tell them to watch out for it. Some places you’re safe until FY+1, and things don’t go fully absurd until FY+2.

Friend if my relatively harmless comment is triggering you to the point you are deleting accounts you should really not be participating in discussion forums on the internet.

All the best and I actually really mean this as 1 human to another; I'm sorry you are going through what you are going through and I sincerely hope you get better.
I've never done this, so asterisks as appropriate, but if you're using IPv6 to assign addresses from your block internally (that is, you aren't NATting your devices behind the router), you now have to invalidate all of them.
I'd claim that a single bad teacher can impact the lives of many more people than a single bad gun owner.
There's a difference between not providing enough patrol coverage and poor response time to calls, not taking reports, not devoting sufficient investigatory resources to reported crimes...

...and stopping people for random pat-downs, pulling people over for the slightest traffic infraction or "smell of pot" and then emptying everyone out of the car because someone acted "suspiciously" and searching the car.

That's what activists and leaders in minority communities are referring to when they talk about under and over policing. You can have a community that is both under and over policed.

The typical pattern is: little focus on enforcement around crimes that affect people's lives, and lots of enforcement on "harming society / law and order" type crimes.

Another example of over-policing: SWAT teams showing up with door-busters and sub machine guns and stun grenades to serve no-knock warrants on suspects with no history of violence, over non-violent drug crimes.
Agreed, and while it's become fashionable to trash on "agile", this sort of thing is why I still prefer it to alternatives. Basically "what do you want next?".

Your link on background checks is kinda shallow, and while they may not be statutorily mandated it's a fair bet that they are checked informally. Also, teachers are effectively subject to constant ongoing supervisions via school boards, which are statutorily mandated, ubiquitous, and have high levels of parental participation.

Your abuse argument seems self-defeating. After all, there are no statutory requirements whatsoever to start a religious ministry, and most religious denominations seem to struggle with abuse and accountability issues.

Maybe you should reread the HN guidelines before accusing others of posting in bad faith, and try approaching discussion as conversation instead of combat.

The minimum subnet size in IPv6 is a /64 (18 quintillion IPs), and I think typically IPSs have been doing /56 delegation so you can have 256 of the /64 subnets. It means every device ever gets its own IP, and you never have to NAT anything anymore.
Google and Microsoft are not even remotely similar in culture or product support.

Say what you want about Microsoft, they do more than just search or advertising. If anything you are interested in from Google isn't search or advertising related, don't count on it lasting. The only people surprised by Wave and/or Wunderlist getting canned are people who haven't been realistically looking at who Google is and how they operate. The worst IT contracts I have ever had to administer are with Google - they are a complete joke.

As for "incidents" - lol - who doesn't have them? What's more important is how does the org in question respond to them. You seriously think sr.ht is going to have the same resources as github/Microsoft? Then again it's a dramatically simpler platform so that's a huge advantage as far as that goes - but just look at this thread; as they add more features the chances for incidents goes up.
I think it’s likely those people just don’t want toast bad enough that they’d be willing to cook it that way. Juice isn’t worth the squeeze type thing.

Ask HN: Anyone prefer listening to music with a stereo vs. headphones?
Headphones are all the rage nowadays, but how does it compare to a roughly equally good set of stereo?

I can see that headphones are more popular due to practical reasons, like portability and not disturbing your neighbors. But if those didn't matter, what would you actually choose?

Personally, headphones tend to numb (ie damage) my ears, even if just a tad bit, unless I have it at minimum volume. And I'm definitely not the kinda person who cranks up the volume at all (that's how I can even detect the slight damage to my ears).

Stereo, on the other hand, I can have it much louder without any detectable damage. Plus, my favorite thing about playing music via the stereo is that it actually moves/shakes the physical space around me, which makes it even more enjoyable to rock out/party with.

I much prefer having the beat in the environment rather than just my ears/head.

What are your thoughts about this?
I think the point is that Facebook's contribution to society (with its actual product, not its tech work) has been negative; its goal is to turn every knob it can find to get people to spend more time on Facebook, not actually solve any problems. All businesses are selfish, but some manage to meaningfully improve some aspect of people's lives along the way.
