> No one threw the Jews into Israel. The Balfour Declaration was the result of decades of Zionist lobbying.

I mean, the explicit goal post WW1 was to cut up the Ottoman Empire (which inevitably would divide the Muslim world, as the Ottomans were the major Muslim empire). The Jewish/Zionist cause is a useful means to that end. No better way to cut-up that region by offering it to Israel / a different religious group who had publicly lobbied for a place there.

I'd more rather blame 1917 / WW1 politics for this than the Jewish people per se. Cutting up and humiliating the Central Powers post-defeat was just one of the World War 1 issues.

Its Britain who signed it after all, and we all know what Britain wanted post WW1. (And one can argue that Britain treated the former-Ottomans with more respect than some other Central Powers...)

----------

I can imagine a parallel universe where Britain would cut up the Ottoman Empire differently without creating a Jewish land / start of Israel in years following WW1. But in most concievable alternative-histories I can think of, the four central powers / empires would be dissolved and otherwise cut up into tiny pieces and scattered into the winds in a humiliating defeat.
Isn't blockading people and food and goods and putting the entire population of Gaza on a "starvation plus" diet and constantly and blatantly violating int'l law to throw West Bank Palestinians off their land further and further while laughing about it publicly a declaration of war?

When Palestinians protested nonviolently at the gates of Gaza and were shot to death, was that an act of war?

When Israeli West Bank settlers burned a home in Duma with a family still inside and laughed about the small child who burned alive their and taunted onlookers, was that an act of war?
Why would there be more cash side hustles now than in the past?

If anything I’d expect the rise of side hustle platforms, all electronic payments and the ease of getting into it to lower the number of uncounted side hustles.
Despite all this, as a casual observer, my general impression is Israel has done terribly at making the case for war, and specifically the kind of war their military seems to be carrying out.

The most relevant comparison seems to be with the Russians. Russia has no credibility in the West and Israel is rapidly losing any they had, at least with younger people. My general impression is of a Russian-level intensity of destruction, too.

But perhaps these impressions are wrong. I would normally assume the Israelis aren’t complete idiots. I’d like to read a “steelman” case for this military campaign, if anyone knows of one. Why are these impressions misleading? What’s really going on?

(Yes, a major difference is that this is a counter-attack, but beyond that?)
Is saying that "no state has a right to exist, that they exist with the permission of the governed" antisemitic too?
Or just make it a function of time, e.g. varying proportional to 1/(time in years).
These people mostly do get treatment now, for decades, involving regular expensive long term hospital stays. So you're trading already expensive treatments that cut their earnings potential drastically both by cutting number of productive years but also due to extensive sick leave.

So if there even is an increase in the total cost of treatments, it's not at all a given it's a a net increase once account for decades of additional working life.

Some of this information war seems to be intended from keeping the US from considering a third option - sitting this one out. One U.S. State Department official resigned over this when he saw Israel's weapons shopping list.[1]

The US could provide humanitarian aid, but not military aid. Cut military aid to Israel. Maybe still provide Iron Dome reloads, but that's about it. Bring in a hospital ship off Gaza, to care for the injured. Send a few frigates to protect it from all parties. Discourage outside interference. Then wait to see how this plays out. It's not the US's fight, after all.

Creating a lot of noise over the issue tends to force people to choose a side and eliminates middle options. That may be part of the intent of this campaign. "Are you with us, or against us". No, we're fed up with both of you.

I heard this same kind of justification used by a CEO in a former workplace. I stood there thinking "I'm a multi-year permatemp with no 401k. Shove this BS and give me a good paying job so that I can put money toward retirement."; didn't say anything though.
Show HN: MultiGlancer – View multiple screen resolutions at a glance
Certainly, emphasizing the practical benefits for developers can make your post more compelling. Here’s an improved version of your text with added emphasis on the convenience and efficiency MultiGlancer provides:

Hey HN,

Today, I'd like to show you MultiGlancer – a minimalist and open-source tool I've developed to streamline the web development process. It allows developers to view their site on multiple web sizes simultaneously on a single screen. Born out of necessity while perfecting my landing page for ArcanePad.com, MultiGlancer has vastly improved my workflow, and I believe it can do the same for yours.

What sets MultiGlancer apart is its simplicity and ease of use. Tweaking and testing for responsiveness can be a click-heavy and time-consuming task. MultiGlancer eliminates the repetitive chore of resizing browser windows or clicking through device options in dev tools. With less than 100 lines of custom code, MultiGlancer is the epitome of simplicity, yet it’s built on a robust Quasar.js template, using Vue and Vite for a seamless and swift experience.

Self-hostable and user-friendly, MultiGlancer is a boon for developers working without a secondary monitor. You can easily serve it on your local LAN and transform your tablet into a versatile secondary screen, displaying multiple views simultaneously. This functionality has revolutionized my own setup, allowing real-time observation of various screen resolutions and eliminating the need for an additional monitor – a space-saving and cost-effective solution.

To see MultiGlancer in action and how it can enhance your development workflow, check out this short video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PNrvdtzaujA

Your feedback is invaluable, and I’m open to suggestions or contributions to improve MultiGlancer further. Check out the project on GitHub and give the live demo a whirl:

That's not completely true either. I used to use some sketchy utility back in the day that could mark one recording session as inaccessible and let you add data to any remaining space on the disc. You would only see the new session. Hypothetically you can also manipulate the file table to make it look exactly like the real thing.

I don't remember if it required the disc to be un-finalized or not. It probably did.

But this is really an edge case

IMO, ousting Elon would be the best thing Tesla could do for the future of the company.

The problem is that stock traders hate uncertainty, and ousting the CEO of any company brings massive uncertainty. So in the short term, an ousting of Elon would probably tank the stock.
Why do you think groups like Hamas, PIJ, and their supporters say it? Hamas literally use the words "from the river jordan in the east to the Mediterranean" in their charter while calling for the destruction of Israel. Reading that that statement as anything other than calling for the destruction of Israel is mental gymnastics. When far right nationalists tell you what they want to do take their word for it.
> There are ethnic conflicts worldwide that often have more bloodshed, many occurring simultaneously right now, but this gets all the rhetoric and attention.

That's funny, because you sound like the kind of person who says the same about every conflict.
People being aware of the issue isn't the same as the issue being their primary interest. Or even being in their top ten interests.
This comes off as ignorant of events happening elsewhere.

Approximately 600,000 people died in the Tigray conflict in Ethiopia in the two years from November 2020 to November 2022. 40% of the Ethiopian population is children.

The Yemeni civil war (2016-present) had killed at least 377,000 people, as of two years ago. By now, many more than that.

There are mass graves in Mali and Sudan where hundreds of bodies are just piled up on top of each other, visible from space, thanks to collaboration between Wagner Group and the local regime.

Syria is bombing their own population once again at this very moment, in continuation of their 10 year civil war which has killed at least 300,000. Notably, many, many images from the Syrian civil war have been recycled as supposed footage from Gaza (https://www.bellingcat.com/news/2023/12/08/images-of-syrian-...) for propaganda purposes - not that there isn't plenty of legitimate horrible footage from Gaza too.
There are tools that let you basically write an interpreter and a compiler at the same time, so perhaps it's that?

That one guy from Microsoft said it at ignite in 2015 and it ran through the media cycle despite Microsoft only ever confirming in follow ups Windows 10 would receive regular updates with no commitment there would never be new branding in the future.

Are you sure that's all they do? Peas aren't even close to 100% protein, so you'd be eating a very high-carb powder if that were the case.
> Second, Israel isn't "murdering" civilians in collective retribution.

Dehumanization is the first step to a genocide.

Additionally, this does not explain the violence being done in the West Bank to Palestinians, a population that is notably not ruled by Hamas.
That was attempted, and more death followed. Heck many of the gazans who were employed by the kibbutz ended up being spies to inform Hamas of security procedures AND killed kibbutz workers.

We both know that solution only works if the other side wants peace. Most gazans want death to Israel and death to all Jews globally (see the recent polls). The schools teach it is good to kill a Jew in America, Europe, or Israel.
>So you're expecting 300 million people to take 30 seconds and look it up? Why should we have to collectively burn 1500 million seconds?

I'm not sure what the point you're trying to make is. Is it that if you take any number and multiply it by 300 million, you'll get a big number? Is it that the average american is so dumb and/or lazy that they need to have the news spoonfed to them by corporate media?

>While our "leaders" are feeding us "look all the sunshine" while we choke down a stack of bills and get slapped by inflation every trip to the supermarket.

We just established that inflation isn't eroding wages. I'm not even going to address the generic comment about bills.

>Also, you're presuming the source is trusted. When your gut feels like you're struggling, anyone who tells you otherwise isn't going to be met with trust and an open mind.

If you're going to reject government statistics and not entertain logical arguments because "your gut feels like you're struggling" or whatever, then it's clear that we're in conversation bizzaroland where anything goes and the only thing that matters is your feelings.
What society needs is the second order effect though. I don't care about education for the sake of education, I can for what education can do for me/society. Now some of what most institutions define as a good education is good for society (the ability to think is very useful), but I don't value/support education because of arbitrary definitions that an institution might come up with. I value/support education because people who have education tend to show specific abilities in society that I want more people to have. The more universities are in line with that and try to produce that the more I value/support them. (note that I didn't not formally define what those things are - this is a tricky topic that I'm sure to get wrong if I tried!)

When institutions allow student to take degrees that society finds less valuable (art,music...) they are doing society a disservice by not producing what society needs. Now if the student is wealthy (not rich) enough to afford that the price then I don't care: I don't need to impose my values on anyone else. However most people in a university are not that wealthy (most are young) and so if the degree granted isn't valuable to society the university robbed that student.

> Believing that such acts will end Hamas/terror is profoundly delusional.

This is the apocryphal "pounding them into submission" (or, "display of overwhelming force"). The idea is to break them, and discourage them from thinking to ever try something like this again.

Problem is, you need to make sure they had anything to do with it in the first place. If someone launches a false flag op, you're being trolled into committing genocide against civilians.

I fear they're being played but they've become a schizophrenic dealing with their demons via Howitzer. Paranoia is easily exploited.
Why is America so fixated on Israel? Groups like AIPAC and the Israeli lobby seem to be steering U.S. policies in ways that don't necessarily benefit the U.S., while potentially harming its interests. Here's what's at stake:

This alliance seems to be turning about two billion people and dozens of muslim-majority nations against America, driving them towards alliances with countries like China.
American taxpayer money is being heavily invested in Israel. We're talking about a staggering $260 billion given to Israel, seemingly without direct benefits to the U.S.
Ethically, the U.S. is on shaky ground. By consistently supporting Israel, even in cases involving civilian casualties, the U.S. appears to be undermining international law and the United Nations, often standing alone against global consensus.
Looking at the U.S. presidency, it seems like candidates from both major parties have to win the favor of the Israeli lobby to secure their nomination. Take Obama, for example. Despite his apparent disdain for Netanyahu – remember the leaked conversation with Sarkozy where they called Netanyahu a liar? – he still seemed unable to counter the lobby's influence. This focus on Israel is a massive distraction from more pressing issues, like the rise of China.

And let's be clear – Israel's loyalty as a Western ally is questionable. It's kept friendly ties with the Kremlin, hasn't joined in sanctioning Russia, and has turned down requests to send defensive weapons to Ukraine. It seems Israel would not hesitate to shift its allegiance to China if it suited its national interests.
Wouldn't that be the point of pairing it with Lean? You wouldn't get false positives.

>Keep in mind that the vast majority of the area was uninhabited swamps until the 1940s

Not saying you're necessarily wrong, but I find this hard to believe because the majority of the area was not uninhabited swamps back during the time of the Roman Empire, so why would it have become uninhabited swamps at some point between then and the 1940s? Of course terrain does change over time, but I've never heard of the Levant turning into swamps in post-Roman times.

Yea, the Unifi is nice because it will show you that. In theory if you're in a moderately noisy environment you can setup the hub to scan once a day and move channels around to maximize what you have.

But in your case, you need to do the opposite (which if you rent you probably can't) and block as much wifi from outside as possible. Everyone getting wifi units and cranking them up to 100% radio transmit isn't great.
Hmmm that’s an important factor. It’s one reason I still “trust in scientific process”. While it’s corruptible, imperfect, etc enough scientists still believe in the ideals of science. Otherwise why do it at all?

Still at a top institution like the FDA will attract the grafters and dark triad types in the field. Some of the most conceited self-centered types I’ve ever met are top researchers / academics and I’ve met a handful of VC CEOs.

The important thing to note is that it doesn't have anything to do with truth or truth-values of propositions. It breaks the fundamental operation of the provability of a statement.

And, since many proofs are done by assuming a statement's inverse and trying to prove a contradiction, having a known contradiction in the set of provable statements can effectively allow any statement to be proven. Keeping the contradiction is not actually an option.

Someone is going to troll civilization with an AI service that produces incriminating deep fake photos's, security videos, event stubs, receipts, chats, and suspicious crypto currency transfers, all telling compelling tales of motive, opportunity and means.

Preemptively plant evidence to frame anyone you want for any crimes you plan to commit. I hear police departments love cases where they can efficiently dispense looking for alternative suspects. But leave a dozen backup suspect shaggy dog crumb trails just in case. Judicial system take that!

I have no idea where deep fakes are taking us, but if we don't get a cryptographic proof of provenance, location (proof of network latency) and time stamp system working soon for all "evidence", journalistic photos, questionable selfies, nights alone at home nowhere near any crime scene, things are going to get very crazy.

And thus you destroyed you whole point: females dominate universities these days.
The current approach will not achieve this goal. Overwhelming force doesn't stop insurrections unless it goes all the way to genocide or ethnic cleansing. That's what makes the argument especially pointless.

I have no skin in this game but I have a lot of Jewish friends.

I have two conclusions:

- Whoever is in charged for this "pro-Israel" information war failed miserably. Even in Jewish communities.

- Putin is clearly the winner here.

The mistakes are the following:

- They focused way too much on the mainstream media. And nearly nothing on TikTok, forums, etc.

- They did nothing about China's and Russia's influence and their own info-war.

- They assumed Biden is popular - or maybe they hoped his support will help in public. It did not.

- They pushed "canceling" but public option about canceling changed considerable in last 6 months.
