MSF convoy attack in Gaza: All elements point to Israeli army responsibility
  • In no world is providing medical assistance to a victim accepting the exploiting behavior of the perpetrator.

    Framing providing medical aid to a victim as "assisting the gunmen" to make a point is sick.

    If you were a doctor in a warzone, and someone with a gun brought you their victim they just raped/abused, would you turn that patient away? What specific actions would you take in that moment?

  • Commercial Flights Are Experiencing 'Unthinkable' GPS Attacks and Nobody Knows What to Do
  • The latest generations of gnss receivers have spoofing and jamming mitigation and detection features included with the chip, and multi-band rx technology to sync to more constellations simultaneously and do exactly what you're talking about. Before then, the spoofing/jamming detection would likely need a software implementation after the receiver. There are different types of spoofing/jamming, all of which are detected and mitigated in different ways.

    I don't know the commercial aircraft industry standards for updating technology, but I wouldn't be surprised if most commercial aircraft don't have what you're talking about.

  • Bodycam video shows Illinois cop shooting unarmed 14-year-old suspected of breaking a window
  • I think it's relevant because it's evidence the teen was not a threat. I don't think it's implying an armed individual would automatically be a threat.

    There are articles that do draw that false equivalence, and they deserve being called out. I don't think this is one of them.

  • Its not wrong though
  • Yes, you can code in machine code. I did it as part of my CS Degree. In our textbook was the manual for the particular ARM processor we coded for, that had every processor-specific command. We did that for a few of the early projects in the course, then moved onto Assembly, then C.

  • How do I convince my data engineer to not modify data before including it in our db?
  • Got it, useful info.

    I'm a software engineer, but here's a bunch of stuff to consider, in no particular order.

    Maybe the data engineer isn't the one to convince?

    If it saves time, how much time? Would tools (I'm using the term tools broadly here) you use work differently? (Such as analytics for IBM Ibm and ibm counting differently).

    Is there a solution that's the best of both worlds? If space isn't an issue can the text be preserved somehow linked to each entry? The formatted text is used for elastic search, but the original text is preserved?

    Maybe "convincing" isn't the right approach, but learning is?

  • World chess federation bars transgender women from competing in women's events
  • Women traditionally have been discouraged from competitions, including chess. To speak in broad strokes, even in progressive locations around the world, there are still those who believe that traditional gender roles mean women should but compete. Men have a generational head start. We are at the stage where, in order to be equitable and fair, we should be creating extra opportunities for women. If we didn't, tradition and systemic practices would continue to discourage women.

    Chess has no male category. There's open, and female. This allows an extra space for women to compete against each other, feel safe, and make connections and friendships with other women in the minority. While still allowing them to compete in the coed category on a level playing field.

    We will most likely continue to be at this stage for generations.

  • World chess federation bars transgender women from competing in women's events
  • I'm going to assume you aren't trolling.

    Women traditionally have been discouraged from competitions, including chess. We are at the stage where we should be creating extra opportunities for women to be involved in these competitions. If we didn't, tradition and systemic practices would continue to discourage women.

    Chess has no male category. There's co-ed, and female. This allows an extra space for women to compete against each other, feel safe, and make connections and friendships with other women in the minority. While still allowing them to compete in the coed category on a level playing field.

    We will most likely continue to be at this stage for generations.
