  • hello mahmoud

    you and all others in Gaza are the bravest group of people in modern day

    I'm an anti-Zionist Jew myself. I only became as such witnessing the disgusting farse that "Israel" is with my own two eyes back in 2019. Our tour group was brought to see landmine strips and weapons presentations and were expected to fundamentally write them off as good and necessary because we were Jews, like they were. It exposed a lot of the contradictions in my own liberal world view which is why I am who I am today.

    I am very much interested in reading Sinwar's book, in my eyes he has earned the status of a mythical figure, in his life and in his death, on a level of the life and death of Che Guevara–I will look to see if there are any English translations of it available.

    مرحبًا محمود

    أنت وجميع الآخرين في غزة هم الأشجع مجموعة من الناس في العصر الحديث

    أنا نفسي يهودي مناهض للصهيونية. لقد أصبحت أشهد المهزلة المثيرة للاشمئزاز بأن "إسرائيل" هي بأم عيني فقط في عام 2019. تم إحضار مجموعتنا السياحية لرؤية شرائط الألغام الأرضية وعروض الأسلحة، وكان من المتوقع أن يتم شطبها بشكل أساسي على أنها جيدة وضرورية لأننا كنا يهودًا ، كما كانوا. لقد كشفت الكثير من التناقضات في وجهة نظري الليبرالية للعالم، ولهذا السبب أنا ما أنا عليه اليوم.

    أنا مهتم جدًا بقراءة كتاب السنوار، فهو في نظري اكتسب مكانة شخصية أسطورية، في حياته وفي مماته، على مستوى حياة وموت تشي جيفارا - سأرى ما إذا كان هناك هل تتوفر أي ترجمة باللغة الإنجليزية للكتاب

  • snake_case is valid, I’m just operating on the assumption that these rubes want it to be stdlib-adjacent

  • Undergrad CS education is going places

    Jump

  • if they're proposing it as a C stdlib-adjacent method (given they're saying it should be an alternative to malloc [memory allocate]) it absolutely should be lowercase. plus is redundant because you just append the extra functionality to the name by concatenating it to the original name. mallocai [memory allocate ai] feels wrong, so ai should be first.

    if this method idea wasn't an abomination in and of itself that's how it would probably be named. it currently looks straight out of Java. and at that point why are we abbreviating malloc. why not go the distance and say largeLanguageModelQueryingMemoryAllocator

  • Undergrad CS education is going places

    Jump

  • and it's malloc, why are we doing this for things we're ultimately just putting on the heap? overshoot a little–if you don't know already, it's not going to be perfect no matter what. if you're going to be this annoying about memory (which is not a bad thing) learn rust dipshit. they made a whole language about it

    Jump

  • the way I kinda know this is the product of C-Suite and not a low-level software engineer is that the syntax is mallocPlusAI and not aimalloc or gptmalloc or llmalloc.

  • sorry every element of this application is going to have to query a third party server that might literally just undershoot it and now we have an overflow issue oops oops oops woops oh no oh fuck

  • lets add full seconds of latency to malloc with a non-determinate result this is a great amazing awesome idea it's not like we measure the processing speeds of computers in gigahertz or anything

  • Every little detail I hear about Sinwar's life and death makes it feel straight out of Shōnen Jump. A man born in a refugee camp that outlives him. A man who went from emiseration to a college degree. A man who became fluent in his oppressors language in captivity. A man who went from indefinite imprisonment to leading the resistance. A man who projects a Samsonian level of indomitability. They have to keep making excuses that 'he's in another country', 'he's underground' for why they just can't kill him for years, but you can find him walking down the street in Gaza and just pull him aside for an interview.

    He's still above ground fighting, a year into the entire region being carpet-bombed with the expressed intent to kill him specifically. He gets hit with tanks, missiles, dronefire, he's still fighting with a severed hand–he's 61 years old! Even when he's bleeding out in a dusty-old chair exposed to the elements, the surveillance drone pilots are still instinctively dodging the pieces of rebar he's chucking at the damned thing in a final 'fuck you' to his oppressors with his one good hand.

    They have to finish him off with a sniper round. They can't touch this man. They can't be near this man. He's the bogeyman. It feels intrinsically embarrassing to even make the comparison–it makes me feel like my analysis is fundamentally juvenile, but I just cannot shut it out of my mind, it keeps coming back to me the more I think about it–this man went out like Gojo Satoru. A life and a death that can only be rivaled by Che Guevara's in terms of it feeling straight out of fiction. What a guy.

  • if the reports are true: Yahya Sinwar, Z"l – I owe a great debt to you if we meet after life.

  • Israel says it might have killed Sinwar

    Jump

  • Al-Aqsa Flood is the Harper's Ferry Raid of our times, in that it was met with violent reaction, was scorned as a bridge-too-far, was fundamentally just, and has caused the domino effect that accelerates the death of the entity into our lifetimes.

    If this report is true, I can only offer my deepest respect and gratitude towards the man who led the plunge. Sinwar will be vindicated by history. A tragedy of the highest order that he may not see the coda of this hitlerian project with his own two eyes.

  • i'm not rushing, it's my natural pace

    Bleach is kind of a curiosity to me though, it was one of those animes that was really popular when i was a kid (along with naruto and dragonball) but i don't think i ever caught an episode so i have no idea what it's about.

    my logic exactly for reading Bleach last week, it's the one of the big three I knew nothing about. basic summary is ghost-sensitive japanese high school boy spots shinigami ghost girl hailing from mirror-dimension feudal-era magic japan in his house and gets roped into fighting nightmarish people-eating rotten soul monsters with his spirit sword after loaning her reaper powers.

    it's pretty good. Barring a mid ending killing a story for you, it's a worthwhile read. first couple arcs are Fullmetal Alchemist-levels of locked-in. drags a bit after that. lost agent arc (400-something chapters in) is where it falls off for me. don't expect the ending to satisfy you, but it ends better than JJK IMO.
