Why do you turn this forum into a house of lies? There is a limitless supply of testimonies of Western journalists dating from decades relaying how the IDF purposely shoots children in the head in Gaza and the West Bank. Haaretz has covered it. MSF has covered it. There are testimonies from all over the world. Every single day we have dozens of incidents of West Bank settlers destroying Palestinian villages and they are being recorded by Jewish Israeli activists. Iranians, believe it or not, have not been in a campaign of ethnic cleansing, unlike Israel which currently destroying literally every single standing building in Gaza and purpusely starving its population, with explicit mentions that Lebanon will follow "the Gaza model".

How many people died from those terrorist attacks and how many innocent Palestinian children were purposely shot in the head? Whose leaders are currently on national TV proclaiming that their main goal in life is ethnic cleansing?

80% of surveyed Israeli Jews agree even partially with the phrase "there are no innocent civilians in Gaza".

Because of the constant invasion and denial of recognition of the West Bank and Gaza as Palestinian and after decades of pogroms and ethnic cleansing of Palestinian villages.

It was the incessant attempts by Israel to invade Lebanon and the inaction of the Lebanese government but I guess your answer responds to your underlying allegiances.

Don’t know why you’re being downvoted but it’s absolutely true. Crumbling infrastructure is the result of decisions like these where no long term vision for infrastructure exists. The last 5 years of warfare have shown that this is a liability.

That was never mindless if you look at it from the perspective of Cheney's friends at Halliburton. We'd be inclined to think the opposite really if US military absorbs all the risks and costs and they absorb the profits.

If you mean "absolutely foreseen" like "we knew this was a really really bad idea yet Trump still let himself get bamboozled by Netanyahu and now he doesn't know what do", sure, we were all absolutely aware that these were going to be the consequences.

Really interesting that out of all the testimonials coming out from Gaza and the West Bank that repeat observable, recorded events over and over again, by people in all sides of the conflict, that you selective choose skepticism about this one as if Hind Rajab didn´t happen.

What's naive is to think that this is overplayed when the same events are happening day and day out after Israeli settles continue campaigns of ethnic cleansing in the West Bank. This is just _one_ representative story of dozens that happen every day as reported by many NGOs. This one was merely made viral.

New comment by Daishiman in "Comparing Python Type Checkers: Typing Spec Conformance"

Daishiman — Mon, 16 Mar 2026 17:38:47 +0000

It's the complete opposite. The objective of type hints is that they're optional precisely because type hints narrow the functionality of the language. And evidenced by the fact that different type checks have different heuristics for determining what is a valid typed program and what isn't, it seems that the decision is correct.

No type system will allow for the dynamism that Python supports. It's not a question of how you annotate types, it's about how you resolve types.

Mollusks in the ocean are producing shells slower because of the increase in carbonic acid. Nighttime temperatures are observably higher in the tropics.

You're say things that even climate denialists aren't claiming are true.

Aside from the article being an ad, there's nothing notable about a mediocre software company shipping in a rush shipping insecure code.

Daishiman — Mon, 02 Mar 2026 02:16:05 +0000

It's actually a fairly frequent fact of programming language development that type resolution can change across versions. Haskell famously has a ton of extensions that enhance the type system in various, potentially incompatible ways.

In fact the question of whether a code type-checks is itself undecidable.

Curation was implicit when the cost of image creation was high and authors had to consider the photos they were taking beforehand. Now curation comes afterward.

> That the anti-Israelis are going to latch on it as proof that Israel is evil is an unfortunate side effect. There is never a clean war and certainly not the kind of war that has been fought in Gaza.

That and the abundant evidence of genocidal intent in Gaza and the explicit ethnic cleansing of the West Bank with full support of the Israeli society is the reason why it is evil. This incident is one of literal hundreds.

Well yeah. I went to a world-class research university in Latam. The brightest kids were making using of internships to Google, Microsoft and Meta a couple years before graduating and by then they already had a career path laid out for them in the Bay Area.

I'm sure a bunch of companies took advantage of the H1-B program, but without a doubt it took most of the best talent too.
