TIL Woz built his own Pong from scratch.
And his own TV Arpanet terminal. o_O
(The Arpanet more or less became the Internet.) https://www.fastcompany.com/91514404/apple-founding-50th-anniversary-apple-1-apple-ii-jobs-wozniak?mvgt=E5Loo3fO74zl #ComputerHistory
If Israel (& backers) freed *and* partnered with Palestine, would that not express Jewish values better than the current relationship?
If Israel freed and partnered with Palestine, would they not make some of the best allies against any local antagonists?
If Israel freed and partnered with Palestine, would Iran not struggle to find something as compelling to target Israel over?
If...would that not support Israelis to focus on holding their own leadership accountable?
So many benefits.

On LLMs / AI: "For me it’s more an engineering problem to fix and not a moral problem to solve. I’m not worried about it taking my job because I’m the one training the models as well. I agree with people on one thing however. It ruined the market totally for junior developers and that makes me very sad. We need more juniors in tech, please please."
For spreading the understanding that we are all part of & partners with the rest of life, there's value in charismatic megafauna, as long as we don't let that co-opt us into *only* caring about such flagship species.
It would add something to have charismatic minifauna, and megaflora and miniflora, megafungus and minifungus. And bacteria and archaea.
(I'd add prototaxites and extinct Ediacaran life forms, but we lack enough evidence to settle on their identities/names. ;-)
End Israel's genocide of Palestine!
'Settlers also cited the Iran war and continued missile attacks as motivations. An online page for the Shuva Yisrael Farms outpost describes its mission as being “the spearhead for activities throughout northern Samaria with the goal of seizing the lands and leaving them in Jewish hands.”'
'...burned cars and homes, attacked residents, stole herds of sheep... attacked a secondary school....attacked and burnt down a health care clinic'
