United States President Donald Trump has publicly called on Israel to cancel the corruption trial of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, describing the proceedings as politically motivated and unworthy of a man he termed a “warrior”.

The extraordinary remarks came in the aftermath of the Israel-Iran ceasefire brokered earlier this week, with Trump praising Netanyahu’s leadership during the hostilities.

One reason I think that complex #AI software projects are never going to happen is that the code it generates has no *intent* behind it.

Senior software devs spend an extraordinarily large amount of time reading existing code and asking not just HOW they work, but WHY they were written that way. Reading long-maintained, complex source code is more than mere reading comprehension; it’s LITERARY CRITIQUE. You’re constantly trying to understand the thought process and motivation of whoever wrote that code, in the hopes of gaining insight into their frame of mind.

Well, AI code has no motivation, thought process, nor frame of mind. While the code it generates MIGHT work correctly (a big assumption) at the point it was extruded, there is no plausible way of maintaining that code, and at some point of complexity (sooner than you think!) maintainability becomes critical.

But WHY do we need to understand the motivation behind a pile of code? Because it reduces amount of COMPLEXITY we need to hold in our mind. Understanding an original author’s mindset helps to define a direction of development that will very likely yield successful results that are harmonious with existing code.

And as any senior software dev knows, complexity is the greatest enemy of engineering, and anything that helps constrain the beast increases the likelihood of producing error-free progress.

AI is great at producing code of little consequence, things so basic or throwaway that no deep understanding is needed to maintain it. To me, that constrains its practical use to generating basically SCAFFOLDING and BOILERPLATE upon which your real code is built, essentially making the (fancy and custom) GRID PAPER on which you will actually inscribe your design. Let it write your for-loops, but don’t let it write the functions it calls.

#AI coding tools can be time-saving automation at the hands of an already-senior developer, but that’s only because it utterly relies on the motivation and depth of experience already found in the HUMAN that’s using it to shape it into something worthwhile. Like a seasoned musician toying with analog synthesizers and sequencers, finding serendipity in the semi-random stream of patterns that are suitable to be molded into actual works requires a human editor. AI itself cannot offer that wisdom.

AI will never be a replacement for expertise. It does not compensate for a lack of skill. It offers nothing to replace an understanding of the fundamental principles of the craft. It will not turn a junior engineer into a senior one.

And it will not create a complex product, at least not one that won’t crumble the moment you have to maintain it.

Γιώργος Γαρμπής (1947-2025)

Έφυγε από τη ζωή ο αναρχικός Γιώργος Γαρμπής, υπεύθυνος των εκδόσεων «Ελεύθερος Τύπος».

Οι εκδόσεις «Ελεύθερος Τύπος» μεγάλωσαν γενιές αναρχικών με βιβλία από διάφορα ρεύματα της επαναστατικής σκέψης όπως είναι ο ελευθεριακός κομμουνισμός, ο συμβουλιακός κομμουνισμός, οι καταστασιακοί, η κοινωνική οικολογία κ.α.
Εμφανίστηκαν μεταπολεμικά (1975) με το βιβλίο του Μιχαήλ Μπακούνιν «Η παρισινή κομμούνα του 1871 και η ιδέα του κράτους».
Έδρευε αρχικά στην οδό Κιάφας 3, κατόπιν στη Ζωοδόχου Πηγής 17, και τέλος στον πεζόδρομο της Βαλτετσίου 53.

Israeli fighter jets targeted and killed injured Palestinian #journalist Mahmoud Essa in Gaza. He had survived a previous round of Israeli airstrikes, during which rescue teams pulled him out alive, despite losing an eye and undergoing a leg amputation.

Despite his will to survive, Israel deliberately targeted him as he stood at the doorstep of his home, bringing a final end to his life.

Fire driving deforestation

At ESA’s Living Planet Symposium, scientist have unveiled how the combination of different long-term, high-resolution satellite datasets from ESA’s Climate Change Initiative is shedding new light on the South American Gran Chaco – one of the world’s most endangered dry forest ecosystems. These data reveal, in remarkable clarity, that fire is the primary driver of widespread, accelerating deforestation across the region.

Selfhosting DJ sets? (Soundcloud-style)


Hi!

I have a subsonic instance running but I rarely listen to Albums. Stuff I really like are DJ performances like by the channel The Moment.

So I thought: why not download and self-host them before Google makes Youtube sign-in only, (like Elon and Facebook did).

That stuff is probably quite hard to organize. But the type of music simply breaks the common services, like Jellyfin, or Subsonic.

I know of funkwhale. But I'd like to keep the contents private. I just wanna listen to music at work (so being open to the web is a plus). I thought funkwhale is a bit too... "social" for me. I'm a (re)uploader, not creator.

You got any ideas? Maybe a youtube-cloner with audio-only support? (I know how to download videos already)

Edit: Of course, I'd download the sets legally, e.g. from their patreon discord, or whatever. ;)

Also: I know that restricting it to my VPN would be ideal for security and legality reasons. But that's a bit inconvenient. And I want to check my options.

Doesn’t get any more secure than a battle-tested web server hosting simple MP3 files and a text file.

Convenience might be a thing, though. I’m in the Apple ecosystem so their Podcasts app shows that feed on all devices and tracks listening progress, etc.

If I didn’t have that, I’m still a lifetime customer with PocketCasts and PocketCasts Web. So, that’s that. But if you don’t have anything similar in place, a self-hosted streaming server might be the best way to go, yes.

Free Speech Travesty: German Pensioner Who Called Green Economic Minister Habeck an ‘Idiot’ Has Been Convicted

modernity.news/2025/06/24/free…

170 people arrested for Internet posts in Germany
bluewin.ch/en/news/internation…

The German police just conducted 6am raids on 170 people accused of Internet "hate speech".

Many were arrested for "insulting politicians", such as calling Merz a "moron". I kid you not ... that shows that he is indeed a monumental moron and a pathetic loser! He has already shown that he is a hypocrite and an abysmal liar.

The ones only justifiable arrests would be those who directly call for violence. In Germany, praising the gay Marxist Adolf is still illegal. I have no idea why anyone would do that. He destroyed the country and mass-murdered 8 to 12 million people, including hundreds of thousands for expressing their opinions. Praising a fascist as opposition to a - for now - much milder form of fascism is retarded.

@eee@poa.st The mass migration is driven by CHINA, which is controlled by CHINA and the OIC (Muslim countries) and their allies (WEF, Open Society, Rockefeller, CFR etc)

Jews have NO POWER at the UN.

Soros is a MARXIST who is openly antisemitic and anti-Israel.

The Rockefellers are EVANGELICALS who were always antisemitic!

They used to help Hitler, today they help Hamas.

Idiots who think that the Rockefellers are Jewish never even bothered to look into their history.

WHY would Jews undermine western countries and Judeo-Christian culture?

They already suffer the most from the mass immigration!

Israel’s Hidden Front: How Israel's Military Embeds Itself Among 'Civilians'

qudsnen.co/israels-hidden-fron…

The alleged strike of #Iran against a hospital in Be'er Sehva was in reality a strike against 2 military targets next to the complex. Western media reproduced the lies of Netanyahu without doubt. The same media have closed eyes on the systematic strikes against hospitals in #Gaza, #lebanon and #Syria.

But is this really newsworthy? This has been going on for decades, even centuries. My question is: how to change it? The French (1789) way obviously didn’t work. „Egalite“ had been abandoned shortly after the heads of government came - literally- off. The Russian (1917) and Chinese (1945) ways also failed. Comrades Putin and Xi are no different from Trump/Biden/Sunak/Scholz/… etc. when it comes to sharing the riches of society. Any ideas?

Love to see 🔥 research like this:

"Our findings do not comment on the intentions of computer-vision researchers. Rather, they bring into focus the systematic pattern of extracting human data and enabling surveillance."

in reply to Rick Carback

@WastelandWandrr Alt text: screenshot; detail of article:

“Additionally, our findings challenge the notion that only a few rogue entities enable surveillance. Rather, we found that the normalization of targeting humans permeates the field. This normalization is especially striking given patterns of obfuscation. We reveal obfuscating language that allows documents to avoid direct mention of targeting humans, for example, by normalizing the referring to of humans as 'objects' to be studied without special consideration. Our results indicate the extensive ties between computer-vision research and surveillance.”

Das Problem ist nicht allein nur die Instrumentalisierung des Holocaust um Völkermord zu unterstützen und es zu rechtfertigen. Es ist nicht ein rein deutsches Problem,es ist ein globales Problem von Mensch und Entmenschlichung, die Kategorisierung was als Zivilisation anerkannt wird und was nicht von der weißen, privilegierten Welt und deren globaler Rassismus.
Durch die Entmenschlichung anderer Kulturen und Zivilisationen gelingt jene Kluft, welche Gräueltaten und Menschheitsverbrechen als legitim erscheinen lassen.

The problem isn't just the instrumentalization of the Holocaust to support and justify genocide. It's not just a German problem; it's a global problem of humanity and dehumanization, the categorization of what is recognized as civilization and what isn't by the white, privileged world, and its global racism.
The dehumanization of other cultures and civilizations creates the gap that makes atrocities and crimes against humanity appear legitimate.

@palestine

How can anyone see this as anything else than pure colonialism:
- restrict people's movement without any explanation or accountability
- write in Hebrew without even bothering with the local language
- don't even bother providing clear guidance (6am or 6pm?) because... who cares about Palestinians?

Mouarf, en fonction de mon message que tu as repartagé on se doute qu'en fait ça n'engage pas à grand chose : 2035 c'est loin et Trump ne sera plus là, mais empêtré dans ses procès, s'il vit toujours. Lui-même ne respecte pas les accords, pourquoi les Européens le feraient ? Fuck Trump.

Ce qui m'inquiète plus, c'est qu'il s'agit du PIB où se retrouvent des « produits » comme la santé, l'enseignement, etc. Pour payer moins en valeur absolue, il suffirait que ces éléments du PIB soient diminués. Et là, il me semble que les gouvernements néo-libéraux s'y attellent. Le néo-libéralisme, c'est faire baisser le PIB. C'est ça qu'il faut changer, le PIB, il faut cesser de se référer à ce truc qui diminue la civilisation. Seulement, ceux qui détiennent la (les) dette(s) ont instauré ce truc pour se faire des thunes. Plutôt que la guillotine, il faudrait se contenter de dire massivement qu'on ne paye plus la dette, qu'il n'y a plus de dette. Ça, ça les ferait vachement chier.
