"About Gaza and life in times of war, hunger, and siege
Because my situation is no different from that of others, and despite being employed with a decent income, I have been searching in vain for diapers for my son Salah, who was born in the heart of this war.

And when I finally found them, in the south of the sector—by a miracle—the price was shocking: over 100 dollars..."

"This was not aid distribution," said Ahmed Abu Amra, who witnessed gas bombs being fired at aid seekers at a Gaza Humanitarian Foundation site. "It was a real massacre committed against the hungry who came hoping to get some food."

mainstream rightwingers are retarded. they suckle the corporate crony teat. they buy ground beef from Walmart, filled with meat from 70 different factory farm cows, industrially butchered by crony packing plants staffed by majority underpaid illegal aliens, and wonder why their local butcher is living in a tent on the sidewalk, and why their local farms are being bought up by Chinese weed growers.
They have the cause and effect analytical depth of a Walmart kiddie pool manufactured in China.

If Obama had ordered an investigation of Trump's Birther allegations, everyone, MAGA and WOKE alike would have agreed he went too far.

This is what Trump has accomplished: the destruction of the comity required to maintain a civil society.

Roy Cohn explained the principles and Putin demonstrated its application to Trump: Lying isn't just a virtue, its a requirement for maintaining power.

There once was a young queen lost in the dark wood
wandering without aim
her sense of direction and the lay of her land had not yet been instilled by her royal ilk
she knew not where she was or if she may even be in foreign land

In this case an insecure radio protocol used to communicate between the head and end of a railroad train. Secured by a simple checksum - a bad guy could stop trains by sending the appropriate signals.

Hi everyone,

I feel like a re-introduction is long overdue!

My name is Anna, and I'm an assistant professor of Algorithmics at the Delft University of Technology, specialising in combinatorial optimisation, symbolic AI, constraint programming, propositional model counting, operations research and reasoning under uncertainty.

I'm a nerd, a feminist and a traveller, not always in that order.

In my spare time I like to hike and go geocaching. I try to go swing dancing a few times a week. I am a Trekkie. I want to learn how to draw. I am an Indomie and Obsidian enthusiast. Based in the Netherlands, I miss Belgium, Canada and Singapore.

Since a job in academia somehow always is personal, I have chosen to mix professional interactions with the more personal ones on this platform. At least for now. Obviously, my opinions do not necessarily reflect those of my employer yadiyadiyada.

Hope to keep interacting with you all!
