You are here now. No one including myself is assigning blame for the annexation of 1948 or the pograms that took place in palestine before the state of israel was created or anything else. Blame blame blame, history has a lot of that because it wasn't us or our parents but our grand and great grand parnts that did this, right?
So again, it is something you could change. It really is. And you are giving the typical israeli answer ignoring the gaza war and the aggression that expanded the partition from a small subset to what israel is today, and ignoring the armed conflict and mass war crimes visited on the internment camps.. i mean 'blockaded areas of terrorists'. you serve in the army. you pay your taxes. you are just as much to blame as everyone else. don't want to be to blame? go live in gaza or leave israel and stop funding the aggression and destruction.
You cherry pick certain historical events and completely ignore their context or other related events. I suspect that you are well-intentioned by ill-informed. That is very common, considering the tactics used by the anti-Jewish community to try to delegitimize the Jewish state in the eyes of people who are not ignorant enough to become anti-semetic themselves, but who have no prior bias in the conflict. Am I wrong in guessing that your opinion is formed due to media exposure?
Atrocities were committed by both Jews and Arabs in the years surrounding the establishment of the state of Israel. Atrocities were committed before, and have been committed after. I won't justify any particular atrocity. I will point out that no single atrocity is justification for continued belligerence for either side.
I'm very glad that you are concerned for the wellbeing of the citizens of Gaza. Really, I am. Now go compare them to the citizens of Syria, or Ukraine, or Saudi Arabia, or Yemen, or DPRC, or Egypt, or Lebanon, or the Palestinians in Jordan and Yarmouk, or the Kurds in Turkey or the Yazidi in Iraq. Do I need to mention the actions of the US in Iraq? The US in Iran? This US in Vietnam? The US in Central America? The US inside its own borders? I can point to nations close or far, peoples small or large, governments supported or opposed by the West and show you worse atrocities than are happening in Gaza. Does that justify what is happening in Gaza? NO! But it does bring to light the disproportionate news reported on the area. Ask your news sources why they report so heavily on the situation in Gaza but fail to report on similar, or worse, happenings in the rest of the world. You will then understand the bias.
Don't like it? CHANGE YOUR GOVERNMENT(s). Until then, shut your mouth about 'gaza' in a public place and stay humble.
I really wish that my government were the problem: that is something that I _could_ change. You'll notice that I did not assign blame in my entire post.
The Israeli government is an easy target for the naive looking to place blame. So are jihadists, so are settlers, so are angry gods. The real reasons behind both Gaza's suffering and Israel's security concerns are much more complex and no single entity is either responsible or even directly attributable. Many people here, on both sides, still blame the British! Most Gazans blame the Egyptians more than Israel. The situation is Gaza is very different from the West Bank, don't conflate them.
The real solution will come not from changing the Israeli government, or removing Jews from their homes, or from killing Hamas, or from praying at a wall. The real solution will come when both sides teach their children that all humans are equally valuable, that we all pray to the same God even if we believe in different prophets, and that in the end we'll all rot in the ground whether we've made the world better or worse for our children. When the parents of both sides start teaching tolerance rather than teaching hate, we'll then see a generation that has the ability to resolve the issue. No more "I was here fifty years ago!", "I was here seventy years ago!", "I was here 2000 years ago", but rather more "Hey, there's enough water for both of us if we're careful", and more "You grow olives on the right side, I'll grow potatoes on the left side".
No, I don't realistically expect that time to ever come.
My name is Dotan, from Beer Sheva. I want to say thank you for your work and your dedication to serving the people of Gaza, we both understand how desperate their situation is. I believe that few people care more for the wellbeing of Gaza's citizens than do my fellow Israelis, other than a small vocal and violent percentage which cause harm to both our people. You have the same situation, from what I understand it is the small minority of Palestinians who are violent Jihadists, but you and I suffer from them just the same. Here in Beer Sheva we understand that the only way for Israel, or any other nation, to remain strong is to have strong, proud neighbours. I can think of few exceptions to the fact that nations do best when their neighbouring nations are doing well too.
That said, do not look to Gisha as an impartial bearer of truth. Sitting on one side of the fence it is easy to say "these people support my position, therefore they must be right" but with them in particular there is no doubt that they are the real-world equivalent of trolls. The facts they state may be true, or may be based on truth, but they are manipulative, add opinion and commentary, and seem to exist based on "controversy brings money". In the long run using them as a basis for any assertion makes your entire viewpoint seem weak. I say that as someone who completely supports the Gazan people's dignity!
Again, I thank you for your work. In the reserves I am a combat medic and know what it means to improvise to save a life. I've done it for both sides, as you no doubt are aware we treat civilians of either side as equally valuable. The difference is that I am expected to improvise with little field provisions available. In a hospital it is not only reasonable to expect full medical supplies, rather it is expected. It is horrible to even think that a hospital could be perpetually under-supplied, never mind understaffed or worse. Everyone here realizes what you sacrificed and what you risked coming to Gaza to help. Your resourcefulness and dedication is appreciated not only by the Gazans you treat, but also by the Israelis who await the day when you will visit our markets and we will visit your beaches and Beer Sheva's football team will trounce Gaza's football team in both stadiums!
The Marine Biological Association in Plymouth should buy a 1904 shilling (on eBay around $13) and send it to the German couple.
You are absolutely not going to believe this, but the fine article has a photograph of the couple who found the bottle posing with the one shilling payment that they received.
Third this. I'm using the Note 3, and I'm very happy with two days battery life, even with substantial talking. Just shut down the GPS and internet when you're not using them.
I think the ship has mostly sailed on phones with larger batteries. Buy a battery case or just an external battery pack.
The ship has sailed, but you can still catch it. A used Note 3 is cheap. I stayed away from smartphones until just last year when I got the Note 3, and I love it to death. The battery lasts two full days with charging, that includes considerable talking but I turn the GPS and internet off when I'm not using them. In the year that I've been hauling around a spare battery, I've never needed to swap it in. But its nice to know that I could.
And the S-pen is amazing. I just bought LectureNotes about an hour ago, a few days with the trial has turned this phone into one of the most useful devices that I've ever owned. I could not imagine getting another device for 'real work' that doesn't have the active pen.
Just don't get the Spigen Slim Armor case. Mine broke four months to the day after I bought it due to an obvious manufacturing defect, and even though I bought it from an authorized reseller Spigen wouldn't cover it as their one-year warranty applies only to the Spigen online store, not authorized resellers! Lots of other people have had the same case failure that I had.
You expect every button in an application to have text on the button itself fully describing what it does?
Yes. Most people only read what is on the button itself, if even that. Expecting them to have read the entire page to know what it is that they will be doing (it's not even mentioned in the page title) is too much.
According to the screenshots at TFA (iKnow, iKnow) upon install Firefox instructs the user to make Firefox the default browser. The button for opening the System Settings is not marked "Make Firefox Your Default Browser" but rather "Let's Do It!" which I suppose assumes that the user read the rest of the page. Did this get absolutely no testing at all?
I remember that day as vividly as if it were yesterday, and how I cried for the Challenger Seven.
I was nine years old at the time, and I saw the smoke trail with the two SRB trails distinctively rising from the round BOOM cloud. I had written to NASA only a short time earlier, expressing my interest in becoming an astronaut. I still have the letter that I received back, shortly after the accident.
You know what? I've cried a lot since then. We've had rocket attacks on my city, I've had friends killed on the road, by sniper, and by their own bad habits. I've come close two times that I remember vividly, once while my wife was pregnant with our first. Those fourteen brave men and women who were lost in the name of exploration deserve our respect, but not our tears. They knew what they were doing. They did it anyway. Cry over people who die young for no reason other than "I hate you" or "I'm stupid". Don't cry over the elderly who die, and don't cry over the brave who took their chance. Celebrate them instead.
Really it's impressive before you think about it. The Earth has active plate tectonics and ongoing weathering. It should come as no surprise that planets which don't have more pronounced features.
Also, the Earth has much higher gravity. Surface elevation gradients are much more pronounced on bodies with lower surface gravity, even though they have higher tidal gradients. Mars' largest volcano, Mons Olympus, could not stand on Earth due to the 3x higher gravity here.
Thank you, you've given me something to consider. I'm not familiar with all the nations' dictators on the list, but from what I do know and some casual googling it seems that most of these were dictators in name only: the country had a supposed functioning checks and balances system and the 'dictator' was more of an overly power-hungry prime minister, such as the case in Turkey today. Well, Turkey is going Russia's route with the dictator being now the President and wielding real power, but that's the idea.
An additional observation is that in a few of your examples, such as Portugal, the dictator was in fact very good for the economy and the people. I was not alive at the time, but I understand that Salazar kept Portugal from being ruined in WWII and did wonders for the economy afterwards.
As for the South American nations, I would hardly argue that they are doing OK, with the possible exception of Columbia and Brazil. Argentina in particular is a mess.
If the dictators fall and are replaced by something nicer (yes, that is a big if), they tend to develop faster, bringing more wealth, stability and safety for all of us.
Though it might feel nice to believe this, it is not the case. Please mention one country which developed faster, and brought wealth, stability and safety after it's dictator fell. East Germany, which really wasn't a dictatorship? Because Romania, Libya, Syria, Iraq, Tunisia, and countless other counter examples prove that statement as little more than naive wishfulness.
Evolution gets stuck on local maxima. There is a very real danger that even simple improvements could be disastrously successful.
This is the right answer, too bad it is AC. It succinctly sums up the many different ways that mutations form and die off, and the consequences of some "good" mutations that do not have a supporting environment. Just watch a petri dish fill up to the point of leaving no resources left for its bacteria, when those bacteria become too successful.
Nature, with her finite resources, kills off species that become too successful.
GPLv2 (not LGPL) will be a big showstopper for some projects.
So those open source projects that ensure that code is contributed back to the community, will enjoy this code contribution and be secure. GPL cuts both ways, sure, and I'm actually glad that the secure option requires code to be contributed back.
Of course they know what sweet tastes like. I just took the difficult-but-responsible act of teaching my children to enjoy things that are not sweet, rather than the easy-but-harmful act of teaching them to crave sweets and other harmful substances. My eight year old also does calculus and completely understands the difference between kinetic and potential energy, and does mgh=1/2mv^2 to figure out how fast something is falling, or how fast she needs her bicycle to go before hitting the curb, such that it will have enough speed afterwards to keep upright. She'll also tell you all about gravity, thrust, lift, and drag and then tell you why the F-4 has so much anhedral on the horizontal stabilizer.
I guess it helps that my kids are outside playing, exerting energy and learning how things work, while many other children are snacking away in front of the TV all evening. Some parents go for easy. Some parents invest in their children.
Oops, I fed a troll. If it's an excuse to brag about my smart, healthy kids, then it was worth it.
I introduced sardines to my daughters as desert, and only give it to them as a treat. Now they enjoy an inexpensive, healthy snack when other kids demand ice cream and chocolate. If that's not a hack, then I don't know what is.
I can't help thinking that if he had registered the website under his first name he might have had more issues than just being taken to court if he didn't hand it over. Cough... MOSSAD.. Cough
Actually the weapon called the Uzi is named after Uzi Gal, who invented it. It is a common enough name.
Sounds very much like Nissan Motors vs. Nissan Computer, where Nissan Motors tried to claim a domain registered before the Nissan name was commonly used (they were still naming cars Datsun at the time).
It should also be noted how Nissan Motors tried (and almost succeeded) in bankrupting Uzi Nissan. That is the reason why I did not even consider a Nissan in 2007 when I was shopping for a new car. I even made it a point of letting the dealer know that when they approached me as the Nissan dealership is in the same facility with other makes.
Note that I once had a turbo manual 280ZX with an independent rear suspension that I absolutely loved. There is no better way to alienate intelligent consumers than to tread on their morals, no matter how satisfied they may be with your company's products.
And the author hasn't looked at a relation database in the last few years, either. PostgreSQL, Oracle, MySQL, and I'm sure the other big ones all have JSON (or similar) column types now that let you attach semi-structured elements to your records. You get all the benefits of a RDBMs (ACID, referential integrity, 40 years of history) _and_ all the benefits of NoSQL.
Seriously, there's no good reason not to start with PostgreSQL and only add MongoDB if you really have a good use case for it (you know, you suddenly need to be Web Scale). Personally (and professionally), I use both, with PostgreSQL as the main DB for everything and MongoDB for read-only collections of indexed data.
My challenge to devs out there: spend the hour it takes to learn SQL and understand what you can actually do with it. And, stop pretending that an RDBMS won't scale to meet your needs (spoiler alert: it will).

What JSON column types exist in MySQL? I know that MariaDB supports COLUMN_JSON() on dynamic columns for SELECT statements (but no way to insert JSON), but MySQL seems to have no native JSON support. Even the third-party components such as mysqljson only import and export JSON, there is no internal JSON nor dynamic column storage and the values are stored in native MySQL datatypes in predefined columns.
Even in MariaDB, WHEREing from a dynamic column means parsing the whole table's dynamic columns (i.e. no index). It is little more than a native serialize feature, and in fact is stored internally as a blob.
The major feature (and I personally don't like it but perhaps that is because I've never had a good need for it) of MongoDB and brethen is that the "columns" (actually JSON array elements) are _not_ predefined. Thus you can have a table with the following "rows" (note the different columns):
["id":1, "type":"shirt", "colour":"blue"]
["id":2, "type":"pants", "size":"36"]
He didn't "escape" from Sweden. He left with permission. He isn't "hiding". Everyone knows where he is. He just isn't going out of his way to turn himself in, after having announced his location and intentions to the authorities. I don't know what that is, but it isn't "fugitive".
I believe that the term you are looking for is "refugee".

Third this. I'm using the Note 3, and I'm very happy with two days battery life, even with substantial talking. Just shut down the GPS and internet when you're not using them.
So, no more SD slot, no Note Edge, and no removable battery.. This seems like a downgrade
That's why I'm sticking with my Note 3. Terrific device. I cannot imagine what went into the planning of the Note 5.

Nissan is owned by the French.
I guess that explains why the Nissan dealership is shared with the Renault dealership. Do they use a common chassis, like Renault and Peugeot do?
