  • Israeli strikes kill 492 in heaviest daily toll in Lebanon since 1975-90 civil war

    Jump

  • I'll just include the top two points - they're the most relevant.

    • An overwhelming majority of the Palestinians (81%) think the Palestinian suffering under the siege and blockade of the Gaza Strip justifies what Hamas did on October 7; only 28% of Israeli Arabs take this view. Among Israeli Jews, 84% believe Hamas’ attack on October 7 justifies current Israeli actions in the Gaza Strip.
    • We asked how Israelis interpreted Palestinian aims on October 7 and in the ensuing war. The vast majority of Israeli Jews (93%) attribute maximalist and genocidal aspirations to the Palestinians’ aim: 66% select “to commit genocide against us,” and 27% believe the aim is to conquer land and expel the Jews. When Palestinians were asked how they interpret Israel’s aim in the current war, again, a vast majority of Palestinians (88%) attribute maximalist and genocidal aspirations to Israel: 61% select “commit genocide against us,” and 27% select “to conquer our land and expel the people.”

    I went through it - it's pretty fucking bleak which makes it even more important to avoid confirming the persecution bias on both sides

  • You mean this one? The one that dips down right after October 2023? I can't imagine what event would have happened in October that would possibly have caused such a massive downturn in the belief that it's possible to make peace with Palestinians?

  • Seriously though - JIRA isn't always a massive pain in the ass. It's just the way it's used that sucks. Workflow restrictions so devs can't move tickets from testing back to in progress, dozens of mandatory fields, etc.

    When your tools start dictating your workflow rather than the other way around then it's time to switch tools.

    The Lebanon pager attack: Israel’s terror playbook strikes again

  • AJ opinion articles back with another spicy take! Where the facts don't matter, and the only important thing is to hate on Israel.

    I suppose they'll claim that Nasrallah's speech isn't a declaration of intent to commit ethnic cleansing - after all, it's not a war crime if it's against Jews those dirty Zionist pigs!

  • Better merge it, too!

    Jump

  • I have either written or gotten a variant of every single one of these comments 🫠:

    Please include the JIRA task in the commit title.

    Did you run any manual testing?

    Where's the PRD link in the commit message?

    Can you please split this into multiple smaller commits?

    Can you combine these two commits?

    Did you email Jon about this because he's working on that project with Sarah and you might be duplicating efforts.

    This should be named BarFoo instead of FooBar.

    Why aren't you using CorporateInternalLib16 that does 90% of this?

    Why aren't you using ThirdPartyPaidLibByExEmployee?

    Why aren't you using StandardLib thing you forgot existed?

    All our I/O should be async.

    All our hot loop code needs to be sync.

    This will increase latency of NonCoreBusinessFlow by 0.01%. can you shave some time off so we can push in feature B also?

    Please add a feature flag so we can do gradual rollout.

    What operational levers does this have?

    Lgtm - just address those comments

  • Hezbollah Pagers Explode in Apparent Attack Across Lebanon

    Jump

  • They were provided from an Iranian supplier who added encryption hardware to them. These were not used by the wider public. Hezbollah has already announced that all but one of the fatalities were senior leaders. The one that wasn't was one of their daughters. Killed in the car her father was driving.

    These were carried only and exclusively by active commanders of Hezbollah and their direct partners.

  • Pagers explode across Lebanon in attack targeting Hezbollah members

    Jump

  • What's incredible to me is that this is basically guaranteed to only hit Hezbollah's command structure. 3000 hospitalized, and so far the only collateral damage is a handful of close relatives who were in cars that created as a result. That's biblical plague levels of precision strike capabilities.

    For Hezbollah, this is putting over half their command staff out of the picture for a week. That's an incredible blow that will be hard for them to come back from. If Lebanon is smart, they'll use the opportunity to forcefully disarm Hezbollah.

  • Do you have a datasheet link for that chip? I get results for a different pager module when I include "AL-A25_6" and zero results with only "RA5794.1"

  • Hezbollah members wounded in Lebanon when pagers explode

    Jump

  • You must have read that wrong - this was clearly committed by Israeli super spy Moty Rola.

    Seriously though - they were all from a single Iranian supplier, not Motorola (at least according to every source I can find)

  • Best I can get is figuring out a way to reuse some pins on the uc to isolate two or three caps to use as voltage pumps and then dump the whole thing at once into the battery.

  • tax incentives large cities are giving them to force their ppl back

    I can understand some executive being out of touch and deciding that it's worth the personnel hit to do full RTO, but tax incentives would explain a lot more of it. Reading that made me irrationally angry for a moment - because that's super fucked

    Sean 'Diddy' Combs is arrested in New York after federal indictment

    Jump

  • The indictment was sealed and details of the charges weren’t immediately announced by prosecutors, but the U.S. attorney in Manhattan, Damian Williams, confirmed in a statement that federal agents had Combs in custody.

    “We expect to move to unseal the indictment in the morning and will have more to say at that time,” Williams said in a statement.

    So it's all pure speculation for the next few hours - this could be for tax evasion for all we know.

    EDIT: having read the full article now - I hope it includes tax evasion as well as everything else they describe. I knew he was a horrible person but holy fuck that's bad.

  • Hopefully everyone else watches the fallout of this and don't follow suit.

    I'm surprised the insurance companies haven't forced companies to walk back their RTO policies. More sick days, more injuries, more medical expenses.
