I don't think it really explains what it's for though. Here's my explanation (from my PhD thesis on compilers): Static single assignment (SSA) form provides an efficient intermediate representation for program analysis [Cytro

I was involved in making the book. It is very much a book for academics, and came out of an academic conference bringing together people working at the forefront of SSA-based research.

The cookie laws make it so that web sites have to ask permission to track you, surveil you, sell your data, etc. And surprise, almost every website wants to track you, surveil you, and sell you data. The EU should have just banned the uneth

It's interesting to see the media focus on this part of the pope's speech. Part of the degradation of journalism in the media is choosing which narratives to tell. In the Vatican's press release on this story [1], they starte

Folks, this is an indicted war criminal, who is committing an internationally recognized genocide. And Vercel CEO is shaking his hand and supporting him. I feel like I'm losing my mind here.

For politicians, yes. Many are bribed by AIPAC and have directly participated in this. The people are not so happy, and many are noticing.

"We're going to have to use the tools of battle. The weapons change over time. [...] And the most important ones are with social media. And the most important purchase that is going on right now is Tiktok. Number 1. Number 1. And

In this video, Netanyahu also discusses in pretty straightforward terms how taking over Tiktok is strategic for him.

Incredible that this happened. AIPAC and the ADL targeted Tiktok because it didn't restrict Palestine content while the other social media did. And so the US Congress killed it. Absolutely incredible first amendment work from the Land

There was an interesting point in the earlier article on this, where Microsoft tried to push their Israeli employees under a bus. They claimed their Israeli employees had lied to them about the use of Azure for war and civilian harm because

It's the phrasing. You're using a fun and casual term for something awful. You are correct about the amount of sexual assault in American prison of course.

The Stern gang, who killed him, became the IDF (along with the Haganah and the Irgun). These groups performed the ethnic cleansing of Palestine that allowed Israel to be built on Palestinian land (commonly known as the Nakba). > One of t

This is exactly what happened to people speaking up about the genocide in Gaza. 7amleh documented this in multiple reports [1][2][3]. See also [4] [1] https://7amleh.org/post/erased-and-suppressed-palestinian-te... [2]

Interesting. That does match what we've seen. Interesting his use of the word "terrorists" - they also use this word to describe the resistance against Israel's oppression. Truly a multi-faceted word that can be used to

They don't declare war anymore if they can avoid it. Being at war comes with obligations and consequences, so they prefer to drone strike Yemen and Gaza without declaring war

So the question is whether Israel is a democracy. If a state both maintains an occupation and denies the occupied population political rights, then it is not democratic (even if the dominant ethnic group and some others are allowed to vote)

by pbiggar 1y ago
Hardly a democracy when it occupies Palestine, and Palestinians can't vote in Israeli elections.

Not surprising. There are 3 main causes here: - general anti-immigrant attitudes, policies, and policing (ICE) - deportations of students exercising free speech rights (to criticize Israel) - forcing colleges to change policies (again, to p

There's a new VPN that you might try, built by Boycat. https://www.boycat.io/vpn Don't know if it will help in this situation as it's designed to be a VPN not controlled by Israel, but it might be worth a try

Interesting the story that led to this question. France has said that it will recognize Palestine, and so the US ambassador wrote a letter falsely accusing the French of antisemitism for recognizing Palestine.

Incidentally, Darklang had this built into the language/editor combo from the start. You can see it in the examples on our youtube, maybe this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQpBG9WkGus To make a long story short
