An open letter to Jews, on Gaza:
The Jewish people have moral frameworks for this moment.
It is a choice not to heed them.
Our Rabbis taught, “Give sustenance to the poor of the non-Jews along with the poor of Israel. Visit the sick of the non-Jews along with the sick of Israel. Bury the dead of the non-Jews along with the dead of Israel. [Do all these things] because of the ways of peace.” (Talmud Gittin 61a

My parents' university, in the late 70s, bought a computer. It was more powerful than they needed so they sold some processing time to local businesses to run their payroll.
It's remarkable how we keep doing the same tricks over and over again.
I had a coworker a decade+ ago who had gotten started in programming at one of those businesses around 1980
Very much for businesses that didn't have programming expertise and who didn't want to own a big minicomputer

Hohner #harmonica. It might be a "Little Lady," it might be a "Mini." It has features of both. Lanyard and reed plates match the Little Lady, but it doesn't say "Little Lady" on either cover plate. I suspect they may have run out of that part and just used the side that says "Hohner" twice.
Anyway, it's an oddball -- unlike every other tiny harmonica I've seen, it's not in the key of C, but the key of A. I can't find anything online about Hohner making these things in unusual keys. It's not like there's any reason a professional harmonica player would want one of each in all keys...
Someday, I'd like to find the similar, off-brand "Pee-Wee" harmonica, after which Paul Rubens named his character.

I’ve found that people telling you how smart they are is a red flag.
They are either midwits, egomaniacs, or liars or interesting combinations thereof.
Interestingly those who also call people they are upset with dumb… are typically not very bright (at least a deviation below average).
Don’t blame me, I’m just the observer here.
I do struggle with figuring out how to make sure my kids go into adulthood with their eyes open while at the same time not disrupting their childhood.
I’m not sure how to structure the story (as I understand it) in a way that is logical, understandable, concise and easily conveyed.

RE: mas.to/@tezoatlipoca/114982403…
@HalfHeartedFanatic Holy fucking shit, they did. I happened to take a snap of Library of Congress's Annotated Constitution in January (for some other reason). https://static.awadwatt.com/U.S.mas.to
@gme And its the same MOFOs who lost their shit at that who are the ones trumpeting 2A rights and yammering on nonstop about government transparency and swamps and going back to your constitutional roots. And yet this is blatant, visible to all no-guff tyrrany right here. So those MAGA idiots SHOULD be losing their absolute shit over this. (I mean, we know why - captured media etc.)
I really really am starting to get concerned for you guys (I love most of you, you're all mostly really nice)
I just got done talking to both of my Senators' offices and my Representative's office and alerting them about this.
One of my Senator's their aide was very alarmed and concerned about this and when I spoke with my Rep their office said I was the 2nd person to call them about this.
So.....
People are noticing and making their (our) voices heard at least.
Thanks for getting the word out about this!
@gme
NP - concerned upstairs neighbours =D
Its really very sneaky shit what <whoever THEY are who did this> are doing, but the intent is crystal clear:
The reality is any changes made to congress.gov are mostly symbolic. The version of the Constitution published there -- even by the Library of Congress -- isn't the official Constitution. That's still a paper document and that's held at The National Archives.
But it doesn't look good that's for sure, and is symbolic of this regime's continued gas lighting of the American public.
When we (the US) gets out of this quagmire (and we will eventually get out of it) I think of the biggest changes to come will be such a huge scaling back in the powers of the Executive Branch. That branch of Government is going to be neutered to prevent all this mess from happening again.

“GROK, summarize this way too long shitpost, point out any grammatical errors, lack of punctuation etc. Then judge the statements made against common logical fallacies and see if they are consistent with everything else this person has ever said.
Organize this into a witty response that will fit inside the character limits and make this person believe I have read and care about their opinion.”

ich glaube, der hauptdenkfehler beim nachdenken über generative ki, bei den nerds meiner generation, ist zu glauben, dass die systeme noch "besser" werden.
"jaaahaa, jetzt ist das noch buggy as hell, aber in ein paar jahren …"
wir haben diesen approach an unserer erfahrung mit software eingeübt und da hat das meist hingehauen.
aber ki ist anders: die unzuverlässigkeit ist nicht eine noch zu lösende unperfektion, sondern immanent systemische eigenschaft der modelle. das wird nicht besser.
