<p>> but rather because so many things in our culture and society has been subtly altered to benefit women more and more over several decades to the point that men feel like getting into a relationship, or just investing in a woman at all, is a great way of getting screwed over<p>I'm a man, and I don't have this experience. Your comment makes me curious — what has changed and in what way to make it more likely that men will be screwed over by women? Is it that women are more likely to reject/leave a man once he has invested, or are you thinking about something else entirely?</p>

<p>Practically every frontend framework uses components. The problem with React is that so many of its abstractions are leaky and forces a lot of accidental complexity on the developer.</p>

<p>I agree. I want to avoid the JVM. Also some functional features in Kotlin like immutable data structures are shallow and can be circumvented.<p>Also, practically it's only really viable to use IntelliJ as editor, since the language server in e.g. VS Code is pretty bad.</p>

<p>I think it can set your free, but I don't think it's a necessity. I think it's totally possible to move on and process something without forgiving.<p>There's currently a cultural pressure to forgive, as if that's the only option. That makes things more difficult for those who are not able to forgive. There is no right way to process a wrong.</p>

<p>> They have an interest in this conflict that is not the same as Israel's.<p>You are quite right, Israel's interest is to kill and displace the Palestinians, crush them as a people. Very few human right groups would have an interest that aligns with that.</p>

<p>The ICJ did say that South Africa's accusation of genocide was plausible, which is also the reason they decided to proceed with the case.<p>This is what a professor of international law has to say about the case: <a href="https://www.ejiltalk.org/speaking-the-law-plausibly-the-international-court-of-justice-on-gaza/" rel="nofollow">https://www.ejiltalk.org/speaking-the-law-plausibly-the-inte...</a><p>And if over 30,000 dead Palestinians so far isn't enough for you, the intent is the central issue of genocide, though the Palestinian casualties will undoubtably rise.</p>

<p>> It's because Israelis truly feel, to their core, that Hamas has proven themselves to be an enemy that must be destroyed, otherwise Israelis are just never going to be safe again.<p>Has there been public debate in Israel wheter:<p>1. It is realistic to eradicate Hamas.
2. To what extent Israel's operation will sow new hate and resistance among the Palestinians, so that the risk of future attacks increases, whether that be by Hamas or any other resistance group.</p>
