Resolution 181 was the UN looking at a complicated situation that had arisen, an area that contained two different people who wanted to build a homeland there, and trying to figure out how to deal with it. It was accepted by the Jews, just as they had accepted even earlier plans that gave them even less land. It was rejected by the Palestinians.

The Arab states instead attacked Israel, which is why additional land was gained in 1949. It's true that it was by force, but it's just as true that it was unequivocally a defensive war the Israel fought. If you launch a multi-state attack on another state and you lose, it makes sense you'd lose territory.

1967 is a more complicated story. Israel considers the things Egypt were doing to be tantamount to declaring war, so it launched a pre-emptive strike on Egypt. Israelis usually consider this a defensive war, though I think majority opinion outside of Israel is that it was an Israeli attack.

> Which after all was said and done, from the perspective of the vast bulk of the pre-1947 inhabitants -- amount to pretty much the same thing.

This is simply flattening the actual history. Look, there were legitimately two peoples on that land at the time. They both wanted a home state. One group, the Jews, agreed to every single compromise put forward. The other refused every single one, and with their neighboring friends, launched a war of annhilation against the Jews.

You can't refuse every single compromise without offering an alternative, launch a war to force your way, and then complain when you lose!

It's also worth noting that Arab countries controlled the WB and Gaza for twenty-something years after the founding of Israel. And yet none ever did anything to give Palestinians independence or create a Palestinian state on that land, the same land that everyone is shouting "free Palestine" about, including all those Arab countries.

> First customer walks in and gets a credit of $100. Now the customer wants to pay these $100 to someone who uses a different bank. What happens?

The first bank credits the account the different bank has with it in the amount of a hundred dollars. This involves updating a spreadsheet.

If they didn't talk about managing money at all, I'd agree.

If he just meant they didn't focus on how they have lots more of it than most, that'a another matter.

My son will have more than I did, though not enough to not work, and we talk about saving etc. but not about specifics. He doesn't know what I plan on handing him when he's an adult, or what he can expect to inherit, just general advice. It'd be the same conversation, mostly, if we had 1/10th or 10x as much.

I'm surprised no one commenting has really got this point. The truth is Google has a choice about the model it uses, Google has created the advertising industry online.

Again, you disclaim Google of any responsibility for choice but hold the author to one? Doesn't that biased difference strike you as jarring?

That's the point here. Everyone seems to complicate it; it's pretty simple.

As you get older, probably you are the one doing the evaluating and realizing you won't be a heart surgeon or discover a major math theorem (that was two from my own teenagerhood). Mostly people not you don't give it two thoughts. But whatever. Learn from your life and don't judge it. I mean sure being old is held against a lot of people but that's just some political social change you can work for a little. Other people's opinions aren't the truth and it seems hard to get a few decades in and not realize this. You can make your own chances each morning, especially to be free and to be helpful to others.

Didn't downvote. But reducing an entire country, particularly within the context of their currency crashing, to a motive like credibility among a niche group might come across to some as limited.
I don't fully understand why a convention that allegedly tries to protect human rights makes a so bold difference just based on job positions (aka ranks). I mean, I do understand where it comes from, and especially when it applies to prisoners of war, so military forces. They basically can only think in hierarchies so designing a system that works with hierarchies will have more chances to be actually followed.
But still, I find it weird.

One could argue that personal computing (desktop) software piracy lead to web-based SaaS subscription licensing. In theory, mobile app stores solved device software piracy, at the cost of high distribution fees, policy restrictions and telemetry.

Thanks to Linux being used at scale in Android and WSL, it's now maintained and capable on the desktop, as a hypothetical foundation for personal computing innovation. But even there, native GUI toolkits took a backseat to web and CLI. Remember Chandler? http://www.osafoundation.org/

Investors poured small fortunes into cauldrons of smart devices, wearables and AR/VR, with little to show as nascent ecosystems failed to achieve escape velocity, due to closed hardware and software that forestalled the experimentation which birthed personal computing.

Apple Silicon has reinvigorated walled laptops. Hopefully next month's derivative Qualcomm SoC from PC OEMs can offer good price/performance/watt for Apple-competitive-yet-open Arm laptops and tablets that can run any Linux distro, with retail SSDs and RAM, plus AI silicon roadmap.

A modular Framework Arm laptop would be a good start to rebooting PC innovation.

Depends on if it offsets their exports, which has increased last few years due to weak yen despite switching to "premium" energy pricing.

That article claims way too much from too little data.

Tesla does have a serious problem with pricing. Electric vehicles have become cheaper, and nobody can mark up electrics the way they did a year or two ago. Tesla had to cut prices.
But not enough. BYD now sells more electric cars than Tesla. BYD now has a good US$20,000 electric car, and they're selling it in Europe, Mexico, South America, and of course China.
Not in the US only because of import restrictions.
Tesla's factory in Shanghai is way behind schedule and work seems to have stopped before much was built.[1] The Hertz/Tesla debacle has been embarrassing.

Tesla is an auto company, and has the operating problems of an auto company - competition, parts and service, and reliability. Tesla is way overvalued for an auto company.
And no, the "autonomy" thing won't save Tesla. Everybody has Level 2 now, and the driving assist systems from Mercedes and Ford (Level 3) are considered better than Tesla's. Waymo, of course, has level 4 and taxicabs running around.

I think there is a thing about starting to boycott overly heavy websites.

There are some useful resources:
https://greycoder.com/a-list-of-text-only-new-sites/

There are also some tricks to have a lighter web browsing by default:

- try websites with netsurf, links or w3m first

- using a local web to gemini proxy to browse many websites with a lightweight gemini browser.

And you can go a long way by using an adblocker and/or disabling javascript by default using an extension with a toggle.
Did the worst candidate make the longest distance?
Yeah in a way but it's pretty nuanced.

You do always have a choice. If you surrender that you become...inhuman...I think. Because you've said: "Now this thing I've done, is not my fault." Then you go around looking for other people to blame, which makes you a monster.

To be more clear (which is useful I think): it's not your choice what the world presents to you, but you choose how you respond always.

As long as you're not unconscious of course. If your mind is there, you're choosing.

But ultimately where you come down on that is up to you. I guess it comes down to: with how much integrity do you plan to live? :)

There could be some edge cases, but it's important to remember how valid that is for the majority of experience.

I didn't start it like this, but that got dark quick hahahah! :)

> How does this square with the Nation-State Law, which states that the former group has precisely zero rights to "self-determination"?

I highly dislike the Nation-State law. That said, its effect in practice is almost nothing, it is mostly symbolic. I disagree with the symbolism, but it doesn't negate what I said. This is confirmed by the Israeli Supreme Court:

> The court's majority opinion concurred with arguments that the law merely declares the obvious—that Israel is a Jewish state—and that this does not detract from the individual rights of non-Jewish citizens, especially in light of other laws that ensure equal rights to all.

Question - is your criticism of what I said only because of that law? It was passed in 2019. Did you have no criticism before that?

> And while you're at it, can you tell as about the Citizenship and Entry into Israel Law and how that affects the right to apply for citizenship rights for one's spouse, in practice?

Israel defines its citizens in whatever way it wants, just like any other country. It has immigration laws, just like any other country. Trying to analyze this as something unique is just wrong.

Just like I can't just go to France and instantly become a citizen, unless I have some kind of French ancestry, as defined by France itself, in the same way someone can't just become a citizen of Israel without having what Israel considers Israeli ancestry. Since it was started specifically as the homeland of the Jews, as a place for Jews who had nowhere else to go cause everyone else was too busy killing them, that's what it uses for ancestry.

People try to make this seem weird, but this is pretty consistent with how most democracies work.

We made this site for people who search. We were those people, searching Google for where to watch cars racing on the Nürburgring and then getting nothing but cryptic route descriptions on forums.

So we created a map with actual walking routes and people were finding them. Now they're not finding them and they're back to lots of searching.

We get some traction on social media too. But it's people who already go there and know a lot of what we provide already. People don't search Instagram for walking routes to POIs.

If you start a business in the US and you're only adding China DC's specifically for Chinese customers, I don't see why you'd invest more time and money in connecting the CCP to your US DC's.

It would make more sense that Chinese customers would want to host their data in the US not vice versa, and in that case you would treat them the same as American customers in American data centers with the same security in place.

It's the cheaper solution, caters to all customer needs, and doesn't risk your customers' faith.

I can't think of any reason why they wouldn't separate them.

Do you have some reason to believe they aren't or are you just guessing that they wouldn't take precautions? Because in this case, the precautions are actually the easier topology to build, I think.
