yonixw··on Israel creates fake think tank in likely attempt to dupe AI chatbots
OH, we looking at ICC and ICJ? Then sure. But then, you will surely agree to never let a Palestine state to be? As long as Hamas is in control, as, after all, look at their warrants- such bigots:

https://www.icc-cpi.int/news/statement-icc-prosecutor-karim-...

If you want no Hamas, No Bibi, No apartheid (which the ICJ also said as minority opinion that its just security concerns - i.e. terror attacks) then -

I agree! I want peace! But... maybe - Hamas first? I mean, Israel tried to be first with Ehud Barak... then with Ehud Olmert...

And Be sure to @ me where you called Palestine a "state [that] is bigoted by nature!" You surely done it? Right? By your own standard?

EDIT: You said a lot more, but it's just the same arguments with no rebuttal to the LLM answer so I point you to it again.

Nice fanfic. Now explain how Israel has 2M Palestinians citizens and they are in every place, from medical to judicial (including supreme court) to political.

All of this just show young country with shaky economy that cannot help elderly and sick. Nothing changes. But because yout lenses are the same, you will never see it.

Your have 3 mistakes in describing Israel as "settler colonial apartheid" alone. I cannot help you. Maybe Wikis or LLMs will or [1] as a start.

I am only sad about HN level of discussion, and how smart people in tech leave their critical thinking, kicking it out the door when the "I-word" is in the article/comment.

The commenter referenced 1947. And said from nowadays PERSPECTIVE about THAT time that it's a "bigoted state project". I just reminded them that the project got its population (50%+) from Jews that ran for their lives. So his NOWADAYS perspective about that time is crazy. As from the first moment, it was about protecting Jews.

The only other alternative at the time was the US, but with limited immigration after WW2, it was obvious it couldn't be the whole story.

If you have further disagreement, please explain why in the same sentence he wrote "bigoted state project" and 1947.

EDIT: you added "(explicitly colonial)" before Zionism. And I looked at your comment history... Your are deliberately misreading stuff... good luck out there. My last words to you are: At that time before WW2, this entire area was under the Ottomans, so making a government there for Jews (enclave) by BUYING land, is colonial, and not what you try to say which is: "Kill all natives, we are the superior race". Because who at that time thought he could overthrow the Ottomans? But you don't care.

yonixw··on How to defer US taxes
> For your leveraged investments, pay yourself in refinanced cash when your investments appreciate and/or credit rates drop.

In other words: Gamble that (1) your investments appreciate, or (2) that you will find credit rates drop when convenient.

In 1 word: Gamble.

So, either you are rich and have spare money to gamble, which sure, might be beneficial against taxes. But you could also gamble against any other sector (stocks, housing, startups...)

Or, if you are not rich, just put it in the 401k (or eq).

> Both are classified as civilians

Then say civilians. Don't claim what you can't provide. And DO provide context (like, was it still while the massacre was ongoing [1]). But all I can do is to suggest.

> Good job cherry-picking

Me cherry-picking: Taking the literally first entries, Array[0] and Array[1].

Also, you can't claim cherry-picking as invalid against gish-gallop. Since you can't enjoy the size argument only to retract items on the list after the smallest pushback.

Otherwise I can prove God. How? Every sentence in the Bible... Oh, you found some that are wrong? "Good job cherry-picking"!

And not to mention dozens of more problems with the list (no mentioning any IDF comments, no source for titles, etc.). This is just a bad list. Simple as.

> ICC is clearly investigating

Investigating != Judgment. But good, send them more. But please send them a list starting with items that might hold the smallest of scrutinies. And don't prove it by hinting at conspiracies just because Israel has a security censor. But all I can do is to suggest.

The wiki sources FROM YOUR LINKS, are suddenly not enough once they are against you?

Now now... one may mistakenly think you have some inconsistencies in your theory... and you out to revisit them first before demanding more..

yonixw··on Polymarket gamblers threaten to kill me over Iran missile story
Another "banger" comment that shows you did not read your sources links, here is one from the the wiki (Israeli Military Censor):

https://www.academia.edu/10481823/The_Israeli_paradox_The_mi...

Maybe your third comment will finally succeed...

yonixw··on Polymarket gamblers threaten to kill me over Iran missile story
The reason no one responds to this list is because it's just one big gish gallop

It's enough to see that you brought a link to the Israeli Military Censor to hint at a conspiracy, to understand who you're dealing with.

But even if you go into the list, you'll see at the top that those who were shot were in the middle of the battle, where Israeli forces were surprised, to the point of massacre alongside civilians. And there, it turns out, they didn't shoot to save themselves by the skin of their teeth, but simply wanted to kill journalists.

Also, a quick search shows that "Mohammad Jarghoun" ("מוחמד ג'רגון") was not a journalist at all, but a media worker, that according to the CPJ [1], during wartime he receives journalistic status. (Also not mentioned in AJ [2]. what a surprise...)

Another comment to the pantheon of "the most logical failures, in the fewest words". And then no one understands why the ICC will never consider such reports..

yonixw··on Europeans' health data sold to US firm run by ex-Israeli spies
LOL

Next one: Cloudflare has an edge in Israel. And has workers who were in Unit8200 before 1991 (per linkedin) and ISRALIES. Who uses Cloudflare? MANY MEDICAL ORGS. Also, Cloudflare is just like MITM (CDN SSL termination). So does ISRAEL SPIES read all your MEDICAL data?

> "To think otherwise is completely naïve" (real qoute from the article btw = no proof)

What a sham article. Trump's TruthSocial level. But hey, most upvoted today (440+ points). And no point on reporting to mods also, I just get copy paste reply.

yonixw··on Europeans' health data sold to US firm run by ex-Israeli spies
This is not written in the article. Can you give a source? Since based on linkedin he was not in the army since 1991....

(And I mean any source for any of your assumptions...)

yonixw··on Show HN: Sidequest.js – Background jobs for Node.js using your database
My guess is the 2-level separation. You WILL need to make some part in your system LGPL by using "Sidequest.js" tightly, but then expose very simple APIs (like /start /status etc..) that will stop the LGPL from "infecting" other parts, as they can replace the "linking" with anything that will support those simple APIs.

Which is a good way to get improvements other are doing that relate to your source code through LGPL's source exposing, while not forcing it everywhere (GPL case). Especially, for backend libs.

And since AGPL will essentially make it non viable for SaaS (as network separation won't do), LGPL is what left.

yonixw··on Show HN: Sidequest.js – Background jobs for Node.js using your database
Layman here also, but I think you are correct about GPL and LGPL (this case), but not for AGPL which adds a requirement that: "... If your software can interact with users remotely through a computer network, you should also make sure that it provides a way for users to get its source"

yonixw··on Why does JSON have commas?
This. The article suggestion will make parsers need lookahead support instead of simple state machine.

Is "key1" array of ["value1", "key2"] ? or string "value1"? We can't now until we find ':'.

yonixw··on TimesFM: Time Series Foundation Model for time-series forecasting
Exactly, so for example, I think the use of this model is in cases where you want user count to have some pattern around timing. And be alerted if it has spike.

But you wouldn't want this model for file upload storage usage which only increases, where you would put alerts based on max values and not patterns/periodic values.

yonixw··on Israel shuts down local Al Jazeera offices
Maher Arar is not an authority on this issue (same for me, same for you) as he is a telecommunications engineer. And all of his assumptions about missiles and air warfare in the article must have sources before used. Just like anything else, also in doppler equtions: garbage in, garbage out. But just look on the 2 videos he brings trying to claim it was a GBU-39 bomb:

One destroys an entire mosque in the past:

[1] https://youtu.be/YszjqgUWdUo

But the same left a 1 meter crater in the hospital???? Just nonsense.

[2] https://youtu.be/VnAbV-ktbi8

As clearly stated in [3]: "More than half a dozen experts who independently reviewed imagery of the scene said the lack of major blast damage, such as collapsed buildings, as well as the relatively small size and shape of the crater, ruled out the possibility of the kind of airstrike Israel has carried out elsewhere in Gaza since Oct. 7."

yonixw··on Israel shuts down local Al Jazeera offices
Did you read it? It says at the end "what happened at al-Ahli remains inconclusive"

Not to mention they say they scraped al Jazeera for other incident which is ironic here, because the claim is they misreport

And I will add that everything they said is only based on the videos... The impact on the ground was consistent with PIJ/Hamas rockets and not Israel missiles.

So I will rather believe U.S. Experts/Western intelligence (which since did not report otherwise)... so no Debunking at all:
