I started working through the pollen tutorial and see these messages continuously being printed when starting the server:
```

I'm on a Windows 10 machine. The behavior is the same whether I use `cmd.exe` or the right-click "Git Bash Here" shell.
Am I [holding it wrong](https://www.wired.com/2010/06/iphone-4-holding-it-wrong/)? Or is there some missing configuration?
Thank you for the help!
I have had this problem with Unifi wifi access points, which poll every network device on port 8080 with the path /inform. The behavior can be changed on the Unifi devices, painfully, by SSHing into each device and changing its port. Alternatively, you can run the Pollen project server on a port other than 8080.
