@Migueldeicaza you mean on mastodon.social specifically? Iā€™ll look through my likes and boosts

@Migueldeicaza right, I get info about it on some hashtags like and others, thereā€™s the @palestine group, there are some accounts like @EndIsraeliApartheid that do info posts and @nullagent has been a good resource for some US domestic actions. Iā€™ll probably think of more. @EgyptianAphorist as well.

Prime Minister of Poland on using the word "war:" "I know it sounds devastating, especially to people of the younger generation, but we have to mentally get used to the arrival of a new era. The pre-war era."

Why would young people be uncomfortable with the word war? For Gen Z, there has been constant war for their entire life. Peace was something that happened back in the 90's.

@vfrmedia @sidereal I think thatā€™s it, stateside the wars have seriously curtailed our rights but the main thing people point to is the TSA, there havenā€™t been many material consequences to our lives. You donā€™t hear about not being able to build a house because steel is going to build jets, or eggs need to be rationed for the troops, etc

WTF, Joe.

I have zero words for how boneheaded this is.

Their own polling is telling them he is hemorrhaging support in key demographics. KEY.

AIPAC better magick up some voters, dude.

Oh wow Mango Languages is good. Like better than Duolingo and way more free through the public library. Wish I had known about this awhile ago!

@sidereal I think the bigger issue came with the VC exit to IPO. I donā€™t have an issue paying for the work (and did!) but theyā€™re skimping on quality a lot, it has really declined a lot in recent years.

ā€œnot every company needs to be publicā€, I yell into the void at the center of foundersā€™ egos

@sidereal yea once things settle down a bit I want to get more structured in Spanish specifically so I can speak it more to the kid. Itā€™s still decent for like every day practice to keep those neurons firing imo, but I canā€™t say itā€™s a good way to learn a language

cam,
@cam@hachyderm.io avatar

@sidereal yea exactly. Honestly I have some problems with vocab on Duolingo but with languages where you have some foundation itā€™s ok. In Arabic where I had a lot less foundation it was pretty bad

cam,
@cam@hachyderm.io avatar

@sidereal I thought their Haitian creole course was easy to follow and interesting, but too short and I donā€™t think theyā€™re going to invest more time in it.

French is where Iā€™ve seen the most deterioration in quality, but Iā€™m a fairly fluent French speaker so I canā€™t really speak to how well it teaches a new learner

And that concludes my unsolicited Duolingo reviews

moving from docker-compose to just ā€œcomposeā€ is, presumably, just to confuse hard working programmers šŸ˜©

cam,
@cam@hachyderm.io avatar

@Crell you can use ā€œcompose.yamlā€ now instead of ā€œdocker-compose.yaml

I just think itā€™s funny that itā€™s so close to composer, definitely going to mess with a cli workflow šŸ˜‚

Someone I know is having a baby, and I ran into their spouse. We were talking about how the due date is close, and I said I recommended something like mealtrain dot com (preferably something less corporate) where friends and family can sign up to drop off meals on your porch or sign up for other things/chores without disturbing the new parents. He looked at me, perplexed, and asked why they wouldn't be able to cook their meals after having a baby.

Oh.

Oh, no.

Nevermind. Good luck, dude!

@ItsTrainingCatsAndDogs lol we were able to for the most part but (a) weā€™re sick with the cooking and (b) we had great parental leave

Lieberman's legacy of racism in the Dept of Homeland Security is still hurting millions of hard working immigrants in the US to this day.

Lieberman ending the public option in the ACA directly contributed to >1mil of US deaths during the ongoing COVID pandemic.

I think about Kahneman's work in behavioral economics whenever we warp the world around the theory of homo economicus, the wealth maximizing machine person

@blogdiva yea, I mean, disproving the whole homo economicus thing got him a nobel prize and i'm often surprised it isn't leveraged more in political/economic conversations.

Anyone getting eSIMs for have you had a lot of trouble getting your eSIMs from Simly? My shit wonā€™t update at all.

Also if you arenā€™t, this is one of the most powerful forms of mutual aid, connecting Gaza to the outside world. This is how journalists are connecting, how kids are connecting to school, and so on. A lot of good from this project. https://gazaesims.com

I'm fasting for #Gaza every Thursday until #ceasefire

Since last Thursday

  • Israelis have made Nasser hospital inoperable
  • Israeli/US bombs massacre hundreds of civilians in Rafah, the last refuge in Gaza
  • Biden vetos a security council resolution for a permanent ceasefire and the release of all #hostages
  • Smotrich (Israeli finance minister) says #ReleaseTheHostages is not important
  • Israel does not allow aid to enter and the UN has given up on North Gaza aid

I'm once a week until a permanent ceasefire in

Here are some of the people murdered by in the last week

Dr Mohammed Nounou was a pharmacist at Al Shifa hospital. He refused to abandon his patients when ordered to evacuate and was executed.

Journalist Mohammad Abu Sukheil was executed around Al Shifa hospital yesterday. He was a radio correspondent for a local Gaza station.
