Seriously. I'm browsing various DYI smart speakers[1] solutions for quite a while and they all seem to have so many downsides I'm almost tempted to pull a trigger on something off the shelf :/

[1] as in speakers, not surveillance machines, speakers, somethings in all my rooms to play music or announcements on.

"kidnapping 1000+ civilians, and raping and murdering most of them" has been debunked by Haaretz, Israel's "Defense" Minister, UNs ICO, The Jerusalem Post.

Feel free to read through the receipts in this and the follow up article: https://open.substack.com/pub/realleecamp/p/people-are-learn...

I'm quite sure you'll believe quotes from the Israel military figures?

Oh, what thing that would be? :)

Linear is both Jira shaped and less terrible.

Notes, thanks!

People in companies above 2-3 people have to use _some_ ticketing / task system.

I like Jira. Much more than Service Now

I need it, I want it. Why speaking out for me?

I don't think this index holds much value TBF.

I used to work and live in Poland for almost a decade (I visit friends there often), and I live and work on the UK and to be fair Poland seems far more democratic. Actual independence of the Judiciary, proportional representation Parliament, vacatio legis (as opposed to UK's "hey, that's your new tax code, effective immediately"), growing local democracies (despite 50 years of Soviet occupation, thanks to the betrayal from the West).

Two questions,

- which Android is it based on? Still 15? Or maybe finally 16, released over a year ago?

- how does your track record in backporting vulnerability patches looks like? :)

Meh, seriously. Write a better book instead of flailing about the dark themes.

If someone is mature enough to read his book, they'll be able to process the less palatable parts themselves.

> We present the results of a meta-analysis of all empirical studies on the effects of these warnings. Overall, we found that warnings had no effect on affective responses to negative material or on educational outcomes. However, warnings reliably increased anticipatory affect. Findings on avoidance were mixed, suggesting either that warnings have no effect on engagement with material or that they increased engagement with negative material under specific circumstances.

Oh man, no, no, it's a different experience entirely. Not as shredding as McCarthy (The road or Blood Meridian alike).

Start from Blindsight and read the afterwords.

Basis of the valuation is in the first link on the blog. If you have an alternative based on the inventory, feel free to share it.

And I find it really interesting how quickly you transition from challenging pretty much everything (the value, the "not sure how much BAM really kept") to....

... Why do you say the VICTIM of the theft and harassment should be investigated?

You explicitly say they "share a lot of blame" -- for what, being swindled, refused their property, repeatedly harassed and targeted?

Sir, you with the thieves too?
