Quoting Julian Casablancas of The Strokes:

[…] “American Zionists get the benefits of white privileged people but talk like they are Black people during slavery.”

I guess the “controversial” part is the blunt, racialized analogy and the sweeping category of “American Zionists,” not the observation that Zionists in the U.S. are often privileged and complicit. #AIPAC, #ADL, Miriam Adelson… when you pay for access to influence U.S. foreign policy, you can’t simultaneously claim to be a victim. Not after the #Nakba, and certainly not after the Gaza genocide.

Julian Casablancas Sounds Off On American Zionists On SubwayTakes

Over the weekend, the Strokes ended their Coachella set with a video condemning US actions in Iran and Gaza. Today, frontman Julian Casablancas appeared on the newest episode of SubwayTakes and used the opportunity to call out American Zionists. In the uncut version on YouTube, Kareem Rahma asked for the singer’s most controversial take. “American…

GDL 1.1, a smart and green language

GDL, a free interpreter for the IDL language, continues to develop smoothly, driven by feedback and requests from an increasingly active and growing user base, especially since GDL was made available on GitHub. Among the most notable features introduced in recent years are stable Widgets; extensive testing on M1, M2, and M3 processors; excellent computational performance (including OpenMP support) demonstrated across a comprehensive benchmark; simplified compilation and installation processes; and the availability of SHMMAP and Bridge functions, which enable concurrent GDL runs on shared RAM in HPC environments. As developers of GDL, we believe this language holds a valuable place in today's world, where efficiency and low-power computing are essential. GDL (not to mention IDL), written in C/C++, demonstrates exceptional efficiency in "real-world" benchmarks, making it one of the few interpreted languages that can truly be considered "green." Moreover, it is likely the only interpreter accompanied by a vast collection of free, well-tested, and proven astronomical procedures developed by colleagues over the years. GDL also stands out for its suitability for long-term projects, thanks to its stable and reliable syntax.

11. Dezember 2024 @ 19:00-21:00 - Das peruanische Parlament befindet sich in einer schweren Legitimationskrise. Weit verbreitet ist die Sorge, dass die Abgeordneten ihre Eigeninteressen über die nationalen Interessen gestellt haben. Ist der Kongress zu einer Gefahr für die Demokratie geworden? Diskussion mit Adrian Oelschlägel von Brot für die Welt und Cruz Silva Del Carpio vom Instituto de Defensa Legal.

Seriously #anaconda this am I have messages from every other #nasa IT admin to get you off our system asap.

Your brilliant bu$ine$$ strategy has driven me back to macports. 🙄

My boss had me dump #matlab because of its price. Let me tell you how few #idl folks remain.

For computer science mastodoni— I’d welcome advice.

I use python principally as an olive branch to my students. Still rocking Fortran and compiled codes (like NCO) to do most of my analyses

Python and R are mostly for plots

Gustavo Gorriti in the firing line
Gustavo Gorriti, the author and #Peru ’s premier investigative journalist, has never been a friend of people on the far-right of Peruvian politics. He was briefly kidnapped in 1992 following the autogolpe perpetrated by then president, Alberto Fujimori. But as the attacks on the most conservative parties in Congress mount up, he has become the target of choice for the right. #Menschenrechte #Pressefreiheit #IDL
