napmo··on Extracting Zooming Shots from 600 Hrs of Police Helicopter Surveillance Footage
Important parts from the article:

"In the footage, a police helicopter closely follows a pro-Palestinian protest as it snakes its way across Dallas.

Two things are immediately striking to me about the footage. First, I am amazed and disturbed by the level of detail that the camera is able to capture, by the proximity it achieves. The police helicopters are not merely tracking groups of people, they are nearly able to identify individual faces. Second, I am struck by the design of the interface itself: the sci-fi overlay of street names, borders, parcel numbers, target distances, and so on."

You can make it yourself at home, and it will be probably much tastier!

Sorry to hear that. I'm sure that those who were responsible for such a crime will be held responsible. Either in this world, or otherwise in front of god.
napmo··on Ask HN: In what ways is programming more difficult today than it was years ago?
That's a good point. But the bureaucracy is there for a reason: to improve the quality.

This is nice! But what is the point of the battery?
napmo··on “Please be our voice” - Message from students at Sharif University of Technology
This is totally incorrect. Student basij is actually consists of students, and the clash was mostly between the students. The shooting claim is also completely false. Some of the students were arrested because of rioting.

Confronting the aggressor, Israel, is the best way to resolve the conflict of Palestine and the neighboring countries.
napmo··on How many Linux commands can a 7 year old learn?
But why?

There are more important things out there to teach to a 7 year old kid. Later, the kid can learn much faster, more important commands than simple 'ls' stuff.

Life skills, math, sports and stuff like that are much more important and fun, compared to these simple commands.

napmo··on Countering threats from North Korea
Google itself is gathering people's personal data and uses fingerprinting methods to track them. This is done on billions of people, and not even limited to their actual logged in users! It would be nice if governments put an end to Google's invasion of people's privacy. It is much more important than some failed attacks.

Or Bennett, Netanyahu, and other Israeli maniacs targeting Palestinian people. Illegal Israeli settlers are for sure complicit to these.
napmo··on U.S. State Department phones hacked with Israeli company spyware
The whole point of your comment is wrong. Israel may be considered a democracy, but only for the so-called "chosen people"; This so-called democracy which is based on racial purity and militarism is in fact a form of fascism, and not a democracy in any way. And the main reason for some of the countries in the middle east to become enemies of the US is the blind support of US for the Israel to occupy the land of Palestine and commit war crimes. Occupying other people's land, torturing and killing them, and then claiming to be a democracy is quite laughable claim by Israelis.
napmo··on Apple sues NSO Group to curb the abuse of state-sponsored spyware
Let's see the big picture: It's not only about a spyware, but it's about a vast range of malicious tools used for targeting human right activists around the world, at first through spywares and other malicious software, but if they needed, physically harming them. It is actually part of the Israeli state-sponsored terrorism around the world. Other dictatorships like Saudi Arabia also use their tools. Brutally killing Jamal Khashoggi was one of the instances.
