Yes. We have very anti-Israel intelligence officers who are politically placed on the far left. Just because you're Israeli doesnt mean that you're pro Israel. Same for the IDF (which Im a soldier in). Just by speaking to a heavily biased paper like 972 they show their own bias against the country. I serve with several soldiers who are more supportive of the Palestinians than their own country.

+972 magazine is EXTREMELY anti-Israel and anti-semitic, so this article is written through the lens of despising Israel and Jews. Here are some of their other article titles, which you can find on their home page:

1. Hebrew University’s Faculty of Repressive Science 2. The spiraling absurdity of Germany’s pro-Israel fanaticism 3. The first step toward disintegrating Israel’s settler machine

As such, their view is not at all balanced or even-handed. Objective truth obviously matters very little to them since they exhibit such open bias and loathing towards Israel and the Jewish people.

Why not go with the Raspberry Pi 5?

Sorry, but that won't work. Hamas still have 130 hostages, and they shoot mortars, missiles and kamikaze drones into Israel with increasing technology and firepower. They have 20,000 combat soldiers left, so unless we leave several division on their border (which would be insane), they're just break through the fence and slaughter us again. I appreciate your attempt to come up with a solution, but it is not at all connected to reality. Hamas will not just sit in Gaza and wait. They showed us that on October 7th. Either we wipe them out or they will slaughter us again.

We tried. They weren't interested in peace. Plus there's a difference between Gazans (Hamas) and West Bank arabs (Fatah). We are not committing genocide, but Hamas definitely are trying to.

Aweee... your compliments are too nice. I'm blushing. Thank you.

Nope. The definition of genocide is: "the deliberate and systematic extermination of a national, racial, political, or cultural group." We are not doing that. You can see it by the fact that we arent bombing the places that the innocent civilians are escaping to. We only bomb positions where hamas is or is attacking from. They are using human shields, while we are trying to protect palestinian lives even at the expense of our own

What is your proposed alternative that you're alluding to? That seems oddly missing in your comment.

Why can't we do both? We talk about it a lot. Until now, we have not succeeded, but maybe we can pressure Hamas to let them go, and then eliminate Hamas in a future round of fighting?

Nope. Those are just buildings. Without people, they are just structures. Again, if Hamas was firing at us from behind civilians (which they do a lot), then we had no choice. You can't just call anything a mass grave for the sake of convenience.

Thank you for the kind words. Will reach out when I get home next. Been a long day - we did a big mission today and I'm wiped so please excuse the short answers.

1. Hamas was located in a significant want under Al-shifa. Israel released video of our commando unit raiding it. You can find that video online. Hard to watch.

2. Because they're angry and they're being stupid and reacting emotionally. Please understand, they raped our women, tortured them and then murdered them. They did the same to our men, old people and children. Imagine for a second if a specific group did all that to lots of people that you loved and cared for. How would you feel? What would you post as you took your revenge? Israel is a tiny country. Everyone knows everyone. Everyone is related to everyone, or is at least friends with them on some way. So the disrespect is because they are furious with our enemy, and our enemy identifies specifically as religious muslims and arabs. Hard stuff.

3. Oh wow that's a hard one. It's complicated. We're in a war to claim territory with the Palestinians. I mean, you could reverse the question and ask "why are the Palestinians occupying Israeli land". The Palestinians arent a people, per se. They are the random groups of different arab families that were living in the area at the time of the creation of the state of israel. Some are from iran, some from Syria, some from Jordan, egypt, etc. so we are not "occupying" their land because there is no "them".

Really what needs to happen is that we need to be separated. We can't continue to live in an intermingled fashion like this because it's too messy and unsustainable.

But.... that's a problem for another day. For today we just need to deal with Hamas and Hezbollah.

Good night =)

Hi All, I am a combat soldier and commander in the IDF currently fighting in Gaza.

We are not committing any genocide. The give away for Genocide is that there are mass graves, which in Gaza there are not.

Yes there is collateral damage because Hamas uses civilians as human shields, so we have no choice but to kill them too, but we do not specifically target them.

We risk ourselves and our soldiers to ensure that the fewest number of non-combatants get killed. We have lost many of our own soldiers because of this. It would be much easier for us to just bomb everything from the air but we dont, because it's less precise than going in on foot.

Personally, as a commander, I would like to say that I have no ill feelings towards the Palestinian people, but we need to get as many of the hostages back as possible, and we cannot allow Hamas to continue ruling Gaza and attacking our civilians as they did on October 7th.

We will continue the fight with them until our military objectives are met, and we will also engage Hizbollah on the northern border for exactly the same reasons (Hamas actually stole their plan and used it on October 7th - Hezbollah had planned to do it in the north but much worse).

Israel is the canary in the coal mine. What happens to us today will happen to you tomorrow, so before you give your full throated support to Hamas, let me ask you, would you want October 7th to happen to your family and friends? If Hamas aren't stopped, that same attack will happen around the world.

Please support us and help rid the world of violent terrorism, and maybe one day, we can all live in peace.

Shabbat Shalom!

Awful photo in the article.

Sounds good.

Fountains of it. It's a mental issue with not wanting to work anymore.

Only at the end of the week when I don't want to work any more on my main gig.

Lol, likely!

Yikes.... but probably correct. It's more that I've been slogging at work for 4 days and am just done.

Great solution! I will give it a shot. But I don't have a motivation issue with other work like arranging meetups, side projects - just getting started on my main gig. It's brutal.

It's like there's a physical barrier in my mind and food clears it. After that, I'm totally fine, so I don't think it's ADD. Good points tho!

What is your source for saying that we're in an ice age? And do you mean ten degrees C or F?

No, it doesnt need to be certified.

The LLM would need to be able to be fine tuned with the data.

The reports are similar to one another, although their length, content, and formatting are varied.

According to NPM download stats, it has 6 million weekly downloads, the exact same amount as Styled Components. Emotion also has around 6 million. So that's 12 million for CSS-in-JS, as opposed to 6 million for Tailwind, so how did it win?

Why not also give them a Ferrari to get to work, and a handful of diamonds to make them feel valued. I have been working with the big corps for 12 years, and this is pure fantasy. If they can save $5 a month something, they will. The idea of every worker getting their own office is laughable, even if it is admirable.

This idea needs to die in the womb.

No. I had no idea where to look. Not really an academic

That is entirely besides the point.

If you can export a UI with defined behaviors from Figma to React / NextJS, and AI can figure out how to code it, then Front End Developers become a thing of the past.

If there's a similar modelling tool for Back End and AI can code the exported design, then BE devs become obsolete.

It is irrelevant if lay people have heard of it or not - we're still out of a job.

Wow that is tough. The country part stumped me and I had to give up cause I also have a day job . Excellent work Neal!

Just like Apple Maps? ;p

Religion. You automatically have something in common, and religious people are usually of a high quality because they live for something more than just themselves, as opposed to secular people. Of course, there are terrible, and I mean truly terrible, people in religious communities, and you should identify them and then stay the hell away from them. But the good ones are REALLY good. As an added bonus, you get to grow, and also help build and develop a community that will be all the richer for your involvement. It's a win-win-win (you, them, the world at large). Give it a shot. What you do you have lose? ;)
