My cheap mandolin. Makes cutting things thin while cooking fast and fun, and isn’t dangerous if your fingers are connected to your brain.

Introducing JSON (2001)(json.org)

While you’re right it’s a shorter spec (setting aside if you’re right about your broader point) this [0] is a more reasonable spec. Even JSON with its microscopic spec has implementation details, inconsistencies, and errata. Is this why we

Dang, can you merge this with the other link to the same article that’s also on the front page?

In principle wouldn’t 3x3 be the theoretical limit? That’s 9 bits/char which is enough for twice ASCII.

That's a tight time frame a long way off. How'd you arrive at 17-18?

Still, the question remains. Why don’t many/most/all?

The battery indicator is neat, but it's distracting when it's covering the whole page. Maybe couple ch of width in a sidebar would be easier.

I can’t tell if this is supposed to be serious, but just in case [1]. In case it is, really, shut down the web? What would that look like? Why would we do it? How? How can “browsers are expensive” possibly be worth doing something that extr

In my source data where do you see “drug deal at 3am gone bad?”

No one is suggesting that "near school property" counts. (The rest of your argument may be in good faith).

If you click on the "Three." that will take you to my source. These are school shootings, not mass shootings. "School shootings", by my definition, are shootings that happened at a school. Would you like to propose an al

I admit it's only sort of related. It's about how schools aren't safe (and don't feel safe) for students. Anyway, this is "a shooting at a school" so I think by definition that makes it a school shooting, no?

by ExtraE 5y ago
Your facts are correct, but I disagree with your analysis. But yes, this is "shootings that took place at a school" not mass shootings.

One week is the last 7 days. "Students affected" is the total student population at the schools where the shootings took place.

Added some of that. May add a graph, but that would require automated scraping to assemble the dataset which I haven't done yet.

Maybe. Schools are workplaces. The suspect was 18, according to CNN (first link on Google) so I think it was a student. Anyway, it could be (probably is) both. They’re not mutually exclusive categories.

Probably not—- this is not my area of expertise, I’m not a UI guy. I ~~think~~ hope it will on some people though.

Sure, I will in a few minutes. Edit: done.

Thanks for your comment. I avoided linking to news stories partially to avoid that glorification. As for Texas, this tracks school shootings, not mass shootings. A teacher was shot and injured, students barricaded doors, and it was on a sch

I thought about that, and I might end up adding it. The week is the last 7 days. I’m not sure where to put that on the site so that it doesn’t detract from the visceral impact I’m going for.

Manually, for now. I built this last night after seeing a video a kid filmed from the school in Texas. Here’s the extremely bare bones GitHub repo; I plan to build automated scraping at some point. https://github.com/ExtraE1
