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

Not exactly. Parent is describing the graph diameter [1].

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?

Parents, please don't be spooky with your children either.

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 think it's because Wizards of the Coast is an American company.

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 extreme?

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 alternative definition?

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?

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 school campus. I think that qualifies—- I would be terrified if that happened to me, wouldn’t you?

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/ExtraE113/schoolshootings

I created this, but it felt wrong to call it a Show HN.

Any way to read this without an account?

I mean, this isn’t intended as a serious input method to compete with your full size sit down keyboard. It’s for on-the-go.

…why?

I assume they meant a portfolio of planets?

I figured it would be Vasily Archipov. Very worth reading about.

Language choice is a legitimate decision, debating which one to use is a legitimate topic. Selling an-already existing product based on its language is questionable, as the parent pointed out.

What, uh, is this? This is a space that I’m not familiar with and the linked site doesn’t make it super clear.
