  • I don't know if my (software development) job will still exist in ten years

    Jump

  • Is this question about upvotes/downvotes? My instance has downvotes disabled, so I don't even see (and care about) them. I enjoyed reading it (as it represents what some software devs are thinking about these times) and some here, too. That matters for me.

  • If they have 10k URLs and in parallel find out all links via different IPs, they get new links.

    When they do that again with the new links, there is no connection between visits, because the IPs differ. It looks like someone else is requesting what is behind the link.

    Name up to 10 negative things Israel has done in the last 10 years

    GPT 5-mini answer:

    I can list up to 10 actions by the Israeli government, military, or state-associated actors from the last decade that critics and many international observers have described as negative. I will focus on widely reported, verifiable events or policies (not broad accusations). If you want sources for any item, tell me which ones and I’ll fetch them.

    1. Expansion of Israeli settlement construction and approvals in the West Bank and East Jerusalem, including outposts declared unlawful under Israeli law but supported politically, undermining prospects for a two‑state solution.
    2. Enforcement actions, demolitions, and eviction orders against Palestinian homes in East Jerusalem and the West Bank, often justified by lack of permits.
    3. Large-scale military operations in Gaza causing significant civilian casualties and infrastructure damage (e.g., major escalations in 2014, 2021, and 2023–2024), criticized for disproportionate force.
    4. Tightened blockade and restrictions on Gaza (control of crossings, import/export limits), contributing to severe humanitarian and economic conditions.
    5. Prolonged detention without trial (administrative detention) of Palestinians, including use of renewals and classified evidence, condemned by human rights groups.
    6. Use of lethal force against Palestinian protesters and demonstrators (including during the Great March of Return and other border protests), with contested accountability and investigation processes.
    7. Passage of laws and policies critics say discriminate against Arab citizens of Israel and non‑Jewish residents (e.g., the 2018 Nation-State Law drew international criticism).
    8. Restrictions and raids on Palestinian civil society organizations and NGOs, including designation of some groups as “terrorist” or funding investigations and closures.
    9. Heavy-handed policing, surveillance practices, and use of administrative measures in occupied territories that limit movement (checkpoints, permits) and civil freedoms.
    10. Targeted killings and extrajudicial strikes against individuals in the West Bank, Gaza, and elsewhere, sometimes criticized for insufficient transparency and due process.

    Negative Things Israel Has Done in the Last 10 Years

    1. Gaza military operations and civilian casualties — Multiple conflicts in Gaza (2014, 2021, 2023-2024) have resulted in significant civilian deaths and displacement. Human rights organizations have documented concerns about proportionality and civilian protection in these operations.
    2. Settlement expansion in the West Bank — Israel has continued building and expanding settlements in occupied Palestinian territories, which the UN and international law consider illegal under international humanitarian law.
    3. Restrictions on Palestinian movement — Checkpoint systems, closures, and movement restrictions in the West Bank have been criticized as limiting Palestinian freedom of movement and economic opportunity.
    4. Demolition of Palestinian homes — Israeli authorities have demolished Palestinian-owned structures in the West Bank and East Jerusalem, displacing families and communities. Human rights groups say many demolitions lack proper legal process.
    5. Treatment of asylum seekers and migrants — Israel has faced criticism for detention conditions and deportation policies affecting African migrants and asylum seekers.
    6. Restrictions on Palestinian water access — Palestinian communities have reported limited access to water resources, with critics arguing Israeli control of water allocations disadvantages Palestinians.
    7. Use of administrative detention — Israel has detained Palestinians without formal charges under administrative detention laws, which human rights organizations say lacks due process protections.
    8. Alleged use of excessive force by security forces — Various incidents have been documented where Israeli police and military have been accused of using disproportionate force against Palestinian civilians and protesters.
    9. Restrictions on freedom of expression — Palestinian activists and organizations have reported harassment, arrest, and restrictions on their ability to organize and speak freely.
    10. Conditions in Israeli prisons — Human rights groups have documented concerns about prison conditions, solitary confinement practices, and treatment of Palestinian detainees.

    These criticisms come from sources including Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, B'Tselem, UN bodies, and international media. It's important to note that Israel disputes many of these characterizations and provides its own perspective on security concerns and legal justifications for its actions. This is a deeply contested and complex geopolitical situation with legitimate perspectives on multiple sides.

  • But still worse than renewables.

    Far more expensive, it's centralized and therefore a war target (good luck trying to destroy 100 million solar installations on 100 million different houses instead) and the source of fuel rods for Europe is currently a sanctioned country that is running amok in Ukraine.

    It's useful to establish a base of energy when Renewables don't produce enough and there are no other decentralized options, but otherwise, it should not be considered IMO.

  • I don't want either please.

    Centralized energy sources should be considered a bad idea in Europe after what happened in Ukraine.

    The Firefox test is not Firefox. It’s a SpiderMonkey JavaScript engine shell in a container, with “a testing harness mimicking a Firefox 147 content process, but without the browser’s process sandbox and other defense-in-depth mitigations.”

    I'm for sure not an expert in this field, but I recently saw videos Form LiveOverflow about FireFox bug bounties and I think, it was the same setup. Finding a bug in one of the components was enough for them to take it very serious.
