"Zionism is a crime against Judaism and the indigenous people of Palestine, and we are committed to putting an end to it. Over the years, it became clear that Zionism, instead of protecting Jews, placed them in great danger by committing atrocious acts in their name. Zionism is based on racial supremacy, adopting the very racist assumptions which are inherent to antisemitism – describing Jews as belonging to some chosen race – a notion which is fundamentally racist and which has no relation to Judaism.

The Zionist settler-colonial entity denies Palestinians their most basic rights. Zionism operates through colonialism, apartheid, ethnic-cleansing and genocide in Palestine Even before 1948. Fourteen million Palestinians worldwide are its direct victims. To Israel we firmly declare “Not in Our Name!” We are devoted to terminating Zionism and we are devoted to the decolonisation of Palestine under Palestinian leadership!"

Alan Turing died by suicide on 7 June 1954. Turing was convicted of gross indecency in 1952 and given a choice between imprisonment and probation. His probation would be conditional on his agreement to undergo hormonal physical changes designed to reduce his libido. Turing's conviction led to the removal of his security clearance and barred him from continuing with his consultancy for GCHQ. He was denied entry into the United States after his conviction.

Coding is not the hard part of making software. People are the hard part of making software.

Therefore, computer science is a humanities study.

Leikkauksissa olisi jotain tolkkua, jos sillä oikeasti pyrittäisiin tasapainottamaan taloutta. Mutta siihenhän ei pyritä. Kaikki, mikä leikkauksista olisi jäämässä säästöön, työnnetään veronkevennyksiin. Tällöin ei säästöjä synny ja vähemmän yllättäen "joudutaan" leikkaamaan taas lisää "talouden tasapainottamiseksi". Kuinka typeränä ne oikein pitää ihmisiä? Vaikuttaisi siltä, että kovin isolle osalle tämmönen touhu on ok. Tai sit väki ei oikeasti hahmota, ettei nää päätökset auta "talouden vajeeseen" mitenkään, vaan syventää ja pahentaa sitä.

The extremely wealthy aren’t smarter than you, they’re just more selfish, less empathetic, and greedier.

I look at a lot of space images, but this one made my eyes bug out like a cartoon character.

What you see here isn't a spiral galaxy, exactly. It's a spiral galaxy whose image was bent into a circle by the gravity of an elliptical galaxy visible at the center.

Warped space, right before your eyes!

"No one thinks they’re a micromanager."

Jade Garratt's piece this week highlights why micromanagement damages trust and psychological safety, stifles innovation, and creates anxiety, ultimately limiting what teams can achieve.

Kuka mukana?

Kerron Fedistä kun
...joku valittaa somen sensuurista
...joku etsii (eurooppalaisia) vaihtoehtoja perinteisille someille
...joku kertoo jenkkisomessa boikotoivansa jenkkituotteita
...tapaan ihmisiä livenä
...joku ihmettelee miksei eurooppalaisilla ole omaa somea
...joku valittaa somen algoritmista ja siitä ettei tavoita seuraajia
...jos joku kaipaa someltaan nimenomaan keskustelua (asiallista vieläpä)!
...törmään tyyppiin (tai ajattelen häntä), joka on yleensä ollut edelläkävijöiden joukossa somessa, mutta jota en ole vielä täällä nähnyt.
...joku valittaa että mainoksia tai mainoksiksi naamioituja linkkejä huijaussivutiille on liikaa somessa.
...tapaan kaverin, jota haluaisin seurata Fedissä.
...joku valittaa, että näkee somessa liikaa tekoälyllä tehtyjä kuvia
…joku valittaa somen vihapuheesta ja moderaation puuttumisesta
...näen, että joku yrittää puhua somesta aiheista, jotka todennäköisesti sensuroidaan
...näen, kun joku käyttää somessa kiertoilmaisuja voidakseen välittää viestiään
...joku koittaa postata jotain ja se tulkitaan sääntöjen vastaiseksi sillä se kritisoi metaa, sensuuria tai äärioikeistoa.
...joku haluaisi pitää useampia sometaukoja ilman, että se vaikuttaa näkyvyyteen.
...joku haluaisi, että hästägejä seuraamalla näkisi oikeasti uusimmat julkaisut, eikä suosituimpia
...olen tuttujen kanssa istumassa iltaa

(Jatka listaa.)

Jos kerätään joka päivä pari pistettä, niin sana leviää arvaamattoman laajalle.

PS. Ja tähän ketjuun saa tulla leuhkimaan, jos on esim kerännyt paljon pisteitä, tai saanut pisteen tilanteessa, jossa joutui ylittämään oman mukavuuskynnyksensä.

As someone who is totally blind, the Fediverse is the only place where I have ever been able to follow people such as photographers, artists, or even those who post pictures of their cats or the food they ate. The reason is that most of them use alt text. They take the time to describe the images that my screen reader can't recognise. Some write the descriptions themselves, and others use tools such as altbot. Some worry that their descriptions aren't good enough, especially when they are new at this. Let me assure you, not only are they good enough, they are extremely appreciated! If the rest of the world thought as you did, it would be a much better place. Don't hesitate to ask if you're unsure of something, but never think that we don't notice your effort.

I find Trump as repulsive as most people here, but as a German, one thing I want to push back on is focusing only on one man.

Hitler's rise was possible because he was able to exploit the racial hatred and conspiratorial thinking that already existed.

It's MAGA acolytes that see Trump as an extraordinary figure. He was a reality show grifter with a crumbling business; Hitler was an undisciplined drifter with delusions of grandeur.

It's the soil that matters, not just the rotten harvest.
