That’s a funny way to say that she was repeatedly assaulted and beaten to death in an extrajudicial execution. For the crime of having only most of her hair covered while shopping.

I came across this blog today while searching and I’m finding it very detailed, human, and instructive. For a beginner like me, this kind of resource is invaluable.

@gedaliyah@lemmy.world avatar

Thanks, this is one of the few truly beginner-friendly blogs I’ve found (not just this post, but the entire blog). It would be great for people to suggest some other more up-to-date resources for someone starting out. Specifically, this blog talks about trying and comparing different setups, factoring in costs, time commitments, dealing with setbacks, preparing for different use cases, etc.

There are lots of resources that share technical details, how-tos, system specs, etc., but not many that I’ve found walking through the decision making process including what worked and what didn’t and why.

Domestic violence is one of the best researched, least acted upon social problems. We could literally fix 99% of the problem, and we know how to do it, and it would not be that expensive. But we don’t implement it because the people who are most in need of public help are predominantly poor black women.

For about a year or two, windows had an amazing search from the menu that used a blazing fast index search to search files, directories, and file contents locally and almost instantaneously. It was a glorious thing.

I cannot think of a case in which a user would not need to distinguish between web search and file search (other than the convenience of a single click). I do use a unified search on my phone that includes files, apps, and contacts, and if it’s not in any of those, it will launch a web search using the query. That is more than adequate. If it were performing the web search in real time, I wouldn’t be able to easily access apps and contacts, and the results would slow and change while typing.

gedaliyah ,
@gedaliyah@lemmy.world avatar

Part of the issue with web results is that it would generally update as you type which is just a bad fit for a general menu search. I personally don’t see a place for it. If you are searching the web, you’re going to open the browser anyway. Maybe some users would use it to navigate directly to common websites, sort of like bookmarks? I don’t know.

FTC bans most noncompete agreements between employers and workers (www.npr.org)

The FTC estimates about 30 million people, or one in five American workers, from minimum wage earners to CEOs, are bound by noncompetes. It says the policy change could lead to increased wages totaling nearly $300 billion per year by encouraging people to swap jobs freely.

gedaliyah OP ,
@gedaliyah@lemmy.world avatar

Hopefully it sticks.

The dissenting commissioners, Melissa Holyoak and Andrew Ferguson, argued that the FTC was overstepping the boundaries of its power. Holyoak predicted the ban would be challenged in court and eventually struck down.

This seems to be an indication that Israel has been a lot more precise in targeting fighters than I thought. I don’t see another explanation for the huge disparity between men and women.

gedaliyah ,
@gedaliyah@lemmy.world avatar

The typical combatant to civilian casualty rate in embedded urban warfare is about 1/4. Obviously any civilian death is tragic, but it is a reality of war.

gedaliyah OP ,
@gedaliyah@lemmy.world avatar

Some commenters don’t understand why this is significant. They think it only has to do with who has been positively identified (which is important ongoing work).

Rather, it is cause to revise our understanding of the “indiscriminate killing” narrative. Since Hamas does not incorporate women in their primary fighting forces, the high proportion of men is a strong indication that Israel has been much more precise in targeting militants than previously reported.

War is always a tragedy and I hope that Hamas and Israel can come to an agreement that releases the hostages and ends this conflict so no more civilians have to die.

gedaliyah OP ,
@gedaliyah@lemmy.world avatar

That ratio is comparable to other embedded urban warfare. The UN estimates that 90% of casualties in modern wars have been civilians.

gedaliyah OP ,
@gedaliyah@lemmy.world avatar

You’re misunderstanding. Civilian casualties are a tragic reality of war, even moreso during embedded urban warfare, and even more when an enemy has had time to dig in (about 20 years in this case). Hamas combat units do not include women (although they do use child soldiers). This indicates that far more Hamas fighters were killed than previously reported.

How do you change that without completely stripping property rights away from artists though? Not just corporate IP, but all artists?

Is it fine for a billion dollar company to ripoff smaller artists? It’s a form of piracy, so this would be allowed, too.

Wait, no, if we are further down then time above is faster and so going deeper makes you younger - no older - wait how does it work? Hold on there is a little spinning top and then something with exploding fruit and a woman in a red dress, or was that the Matrix? Uh, what were we talking about?
