This forum needs a code of conduct. We need to be civil and productive. But I think a blog post should have more freedom. If the author made an ignorant choice of phrase, then a comment about it would be appropriate. But choice of dark&#x2F

This is a blog post, not a journal. I don't think he should be policing his language in his own work.

More than 50 years of oppression and countless atrocities. If you are slowly killing a man by choking him and he stabs your eye in defense, is that provocation? If Hitler bombed a some Germans and blamed it on the Jewish people, should rest

It might be true that I am in a bubble and I am only hearing voices supporting these atrocities. Democracy need not represent the majority, but if it works against the majority without any repercussions then who is to blame? Will the leader

Oct 7th is not when anything started. If this is just a response a terror attack, then should Israel be profiting from it? Will the Palestinians be allowed to go back and rebuild? Without a sense of proportionate response, if Hitler did som

If it the right thing to do, why isn't Israel embracing and announcing the said genocide? Is the only wrong thing Hitler did is to not make a few false flag attacks on the Germans before announcing the 'Final solution'?

Israel is supposed to be a democratic state. If the average Israeli disagrees with this they can speak up. The only voices we are hearing now are those who support it's current activities. Those who oppose are fewer and quieter.

I think the same argument could be made about search engines. Most people are not too worried about them.

Erlang has a bit of Prolog heritage. You can see it in the Variable-constant and predicate/n syntax, pattern matching, multiple clauses, immutability etc... Do not know eilxir so can not say how much it affects that.

Given the history such paranoia might be reasonable(healthy too), but I can't assert such incompetence with a straight face.
