Don't get me wrong, I like it. But there's a fake nostalgia around terminals lately (nvim, oh-my-zsh, etc) and it seems emotional

The terminal is the last bastion of the "good old times" for many people. that's why a terminal aiming at modernizing the experience is so triggering

Only when forgetting that the US was extremely naive towards Stalin after-WW2, breaking promises and taking over eastern europe. This now classical approach where the US is some absolute evil confronted by the nice guy Stalinists could be f

it's a joke, but it's not inconceivable that chatbots which support voice like chatgpt will use voice fingerprinting for ads

AI fingerprints your voice and sells it to ad companies

to be fair, was there anything you didn't feel optimistic about in the 90s? From what I remember everything about that decade was full of unrealistic optimism (end of history etc)

Reminds me of Spycraft: The Great Game I am pretty sure it had this kind of interface complete with the sound effects, or maybe i am confusing it with another game from that era

I remember experiencing this in one of the German airports/airlines and having that exact thought. It was this fully automated airport, where the checkin is self serviced and you only interact with computers. Eventually, when I inserte

in your opinion these are settlers illegally occupying land, in their opinion they came back after they were ethnically cleansed from Hebron in the 1929 and 1936 massacres sometimes life is surprisingly complicated

2. I think the issue is whether it is an armed conflict between nations (but i am not a lawyer) While even though hezbollah is part of the Lebanese government, their entire modus operandi is based on being a non-state organization, which he

1. Then we will have to disagree, for me it was quite obvious what scenario they had in heart when writing the convention. While the difference here would at least mean a court will need to decide this applies here, as this is not clear cut
18.
by rougka 2y ago
I can sum up my position as this: 1. the original intent of the law was so further away from this scenario that it isn't really applicable in any form. You can see from the first clause that they envisioned a scenario where a soldier i

My understanding after reading the west point article is that Israel is only bound to the effect of an armed conflict between nations, not against Hezbollah as that is an Annex they haven't signed Furthermore, from the language of the

I am rereading what you said and I don't see how it either applied to a non signatory nation or proclaims this is illegal, only that it may relate to that clause Also I fail to understand how being a member of the UN makes each of its

I read the site you linked and it was very interesting I didn't see it was very definite in its conclusion that this was illegal. In any case they mentioned that this only may be illegal under an annex which Israel is not signatory to,

Your quote concerns the convention on POWs His quoted convention refers to use of booby traps by armed forces on a battlefield. This is a supply chain operation by a clandestine intel org (Mossad presumably) against an ununiformed miltia&#

This is not "the literal Geneva Convention" but rather a UN convention held in Geneva. Does it apply to unlawful combatants?

Any child death is tragic, but this is really one of the most targeted strikes in the history of warfare. It is safe to believe that everyone that was given a pager for secret communication by a terrorist group, is associated with such grou

Fair enough Although this might have some external implications, most of GCP does not rely on gRPC, even the external customers are not usually dependent on gRPC when using Google services. Correct me if I'm wrong but gcloud uses REST

by rougka 2y ago
It supports gRPC but that's not the commonly used flow, even by google cloud actual UI The REST apis are converted to stubby internally, not gRPC which what makes it relatively disposable

even google cloud is not very dependent on gRPC as far as I remember most of the API is built on REST

by rougka 2y ago
protobuf might as well never disappear as it is so central to Google. gRPC however is hardly used internally compared to stubby which is the actual essential version
