> Israel doesn't slaughter civilians It’s hard to square this statement against the 13-to-25,000 estimated (Assoc Press vs Al Jazeera) dead women and children in the last 6 months though. Just objectively speaking, that is a shocki

This is very true. Still, I’m terribly disappointed how reticent that side is to strongly condemn Hamas and 10/7. Their message is not clean.

Is someone actually claiming that none of them are anti-semitic? The pro-Hamas antisemites are in the tiny majority of the protesters.

It seems 99% of the protesters are there because of the 13-to-25,000 dead children and women, but the 1% that condone Hamas’s October attack make the news. https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/unicef-says-over

Not to belittle your situation, which I know nothing about, but there’s nothing unusual about living very modestly the first few years of one’s career. May I ask how old you are?

This is not a serious argument. Are you suggesting the distinction between heroin and salt is arbitrary, on the scale of good-vs-bad for humans and society?

This. My best friend in high school is now living on the streets somewhere in LA, stealing ("boosting") whatever he can to fund his Starbucks macchiato addiction.

Sorry, but it's now an internet fact: > Jim's Journal is a comic strip written and drawn by Scott Dikkers, co-founder of The Onion https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim%27s_Journal Take it up with Jimmy Wales.

The funnest fun fact about The Onion is that it was started by the guy that did Jim’s Journal comic strip, back in the mid 90s.

No, he's saying that within the genre of mid-20th century Swing there are distinct musical traditions found in black vs white bands, which he wishes he could partition against. What's ridiculous about that?

It's hard to imagine how a company raised a quarter-billion dollars off the same idea everyone had --and many already acted on-- after we all saw chatgpt in 2022. There's how many copilots already?

That's right, there's no debate, except on the rarest of occasions. It's actually an odd feeling whenever some discussion with divergent opinions ends amicably.

I can "visualize" motion with proprioception (e.g., imagining the motion of fingers opening and closing, but I don't actually see a hand) but also without any proprioception. Like, seeing the motion of a non-specific object

Yup! I can describe it as: I see the motion vectors but not the objects. Imagine a dancer in a fog, you don’t see the dancer but see their imprint as they move…
