  • Superior Risk Assessment

    Jump

  • Yeah like what the fuck? Every time I drive on a highway I encounter at least one potential life-ending moment, where if I hit the breaks one second too late I'll die. This is absolutely a trillion times worse than the slim chance of getting a subway car lit on fire lol

  • When did Kdenlive get so good?

  • The Flatpak version is solid so far

  • Mozilla is a sinking ship.

  • That is the first time I've seen South Africa listed separately from Africa

  • An HTMX success story

    Jump

  • That was quite light in substance. Since it's titled a "success story" I was hoping to find a deeper dive into challenges they faced - especially with Alpine, which isn't that trivial to use at scale, not even mentioning with Junior developers.

    This article seems like writing for the sake of writing, or rather padding the blog page on your personal site

  • Damn that's cool, then maybe I should take a second look at Wordpress

  • Leaked yesterweb document

    Jump

  • Yeah actually writing Wordpress themes was easier than I thought. But I wrote them for the old editor, not Gutenberg – I opted for ClassicPress instead which was quite a banger in the effort-to-outcome equation

  • Pyright can check exhaustiveness of match statements on unions

    Jump

  • I feel like Python is coming to its senses in the recent years, with releases focusing on typing constructs and the match statement. I think they're on the path to be a great statically typed language, don't you think?

  • Your stance is great. I'm very glad you're taking the liberty to remove posts, moderated spaces who are strict about what kinda content is allowed are just more pleasant. Hackernews, lobste.rs and me_irl come to mind. Unsure why the poster in the picture reacted so dramatically lol

  • Incredibly common, but I don't really have an indication as to whether it's an extreme amount or not, because I've lived here my entire life and haven't been abroad too much, so I'll try describing it their presence in public:

    • Soldiers are one of the primary users of public transport, because they're teens and they barely have shuttle buses
    • Some administrative/technological roles in the military might not provide you with lodging, so it looks like a 9-5. Sometimes you'll end your day and go fuck around in the city while in uniform; I did that frequently
    • Infantry soldiers have a choice when going back home for the weekend: either wait hours for the privilege to deposit their weapon in a safe, or just take it with them home and carry it around

  • Love it! I did feel uncomfortable with 2010s-Facebook-style excessive public sharing. Most of my friends, with me included, abuse the close friends Instagram feature and I'm all for it. I know a couple of people who deleted their old Facebook accounts because digital footprint was too frightening – particularly, the shit they posted during their teens in private Facebook groups that they have long left.

    All of this is obviously not related whatsoever to data harvesting; this fight is against individual stalkers rather than corporate ones. But it's a blessed one non the less; stalking shouldn't really be a thing.

  • Ariel Berstein is a former soldier for the IDF, he fought in Gaza in 2014. Today he advocates for peace.

    Jump

  • Another thing that got lost in the translation is "fought on a cliff" – while he really said Tzuk Eitan, which is the 2014 Gaza war

  • Walmart, Costco and other companies rethink self-checkout, some stores removing them

    Jump

  • Technological advancements have the unfortunately intended side effect of corporations having less people they gotta pay to, because machines are quite the competitor sometimes. While I think OP is being a bit pedantic here, efficiency in and of itself is not inherently good – the question should be who's extracting the profit. If the increased efficiency translates into less working hours... hell yeah. If it translates into record megacorp profits, then... I see no need in eliminating these unnecessary jobs for now – the worker gets their bread and that's what I care about

  • Hey:) So regarding the "unnatural humanity", that's mistranslated. Freely translating what she wrote would be "irregular humanity", but idiomatically it would be translated to "extraordinary humanity" or something.

    Other than that, the translation is accurate enough. The translator took the liberty to make it way more poetic, but the overall tone is the same.

    The only suspicious thing I encountered is the use of the word "generals":

    1. She wrote ג׳נרל (Jeneral, like how you pronounce it in English) while in Hebrew you'd say it with a hard G. That's close enough to how you say it in Arabic (Jiniral)
    2. Nobody uses that word in a non-derogatory way. They'd usually say קצין (officer)

    I wouldn't get too hung up on this letter though. It was a weird and uncanny read. I think there is other, more solid evidence that can enjoy that focus instead
