I like the concept, wish it was a vertical scroll with some safe margins between each picture (also to give them more stage time and removing the noise/distraction from many pictures stitched together)

stop excusing murder.

the man was holding a phone before being violated, and when on the floor, with both hands on the floor, was shot almost 10 times.

watch the videos.

You too. Tell me if you disagree that this seems to show the officer who removed the gun may have plausibly accidentally discharged the first shot: https://x.com/Landeur/status/2015191223900803407

The footage is too grainy to say anything for certain in my view.

So what?

They beat the shit out of him first — what rationale is there for doing that?

well put.

but that takes a level of humanism, and effort, abusive leaders don’t have and unfortunately people are too brainwashed to see (and lack the knowledge to understand?).

your entire narrative screams “I’m the victim here, please validate my aggressions, abuses and violence”.

the state of Israel has not been respectful since day one of it’s inception (violating the defined borders) neither truly wants a two state solution.

this outcome is the product of what escalated from that.

at least you understand the correlation between a figure like Trump and the state of Israel, that’s exactly on point.

it’s ok when one side violates borders and even settles on foreign land but when reactionary action (you’ve helped shape) takes place, you’re now the victim…

The state of Israel offered Palestinians a two state solutions multiple times starting at its inception (and it also offered them a one state solution at its inception with them being equal citizens in a free democratic country). Maybe it wasn't the best the Palestinians were looking for but it wasn't unreasonable and it was very close to what everyone (other than the Palestinians) says when they say "two state solution". Where we are today is the result of them rejecting it and instead opting for the "one day we'll send all the Jews back to Europe" solution (despite more than half Israeli Jews being from the middle east and generally no place for Jews to go). This is still their plan today, they say it out loud, you just need to listen.

EDIT: I'd also challenge you to tell me why these two states weren't created when Egypt ruled over Gaza and Jordan over the West Bank and Jerusalem up till 1967 (the six day war) when Israel took those areas. Where were all those supporters of the two state solution then? Why didn't they recognize the state of Palestine then over those territories that Israel didn't control?

Before 1948 the Palestinians were peasants living under foreign rule. But at least they were alive. When Zionist interests moved in, backed by English and American militancy to enforce land purchase contracts, the Palestinians were not a centrally organized collective. You cannot “offer” to people who are not organized, and that’s what Israel has exploited. Jews went on a 2,000 year holiday in Europe, then came back and expected they could relive the glory days of a kingdom from over 2,000 years ago. The issue has been the presumption that you can “offer” to people who have occupied the land consistently for thousands of years. Their lack of central government as peasants does not negate their humanity. Except in the Israeli government’s expansionist eyes.

the donation form should be a lot more straightforward for single donations.. it requires too many fields and I can’t do a “fast checkout” like on online stores.. basically a big button sending me to a payment platform so I can just pay and move on.

same here, it’s one of the few times I wish I could downvote an “article” on HN

what a great read and inspiring story.

most people’s teeth in europe do not look great.. specially when compared to north americans.

from my experience, only people who are serious about their mouth health and go to the dentist at least twice a year, seem to have healthy and good looking teeth.

Twice a year? That's only recommended by dentists in north america because most insurances cover it because of lobby pressure. Every 1-2 years fully suffices, depending on your risk profile (smoker, genetics, ...). That's what countries where the insurrance doesn't have skin in the game recommend.

And the average european has much better tooth health than the average u.s. citizen, in my experience.

We have a lot less meth in Europe.

> people’s teeth in europe do not look great

What an offensive statement. Based on what? N=5 observation?

There's a difference between cosmetic dentistry (teeth whitening and the like) and regular dental health.

He’s watched too much simpsons.

I believe limiting twitter’s presence is beneficial to all of us.

That made us spend 819 million hours clicking on traffic lights to generate nearly $1 trillion for Google.

At an approx 750,000 hours in a human lifespan, they wasted 1100 human lives in totality. Unbelievable.

There's a dystopian short story in your comment about AI that can't self-bootstrap without ground-truth from humans, so they keep us around just to mark images, music, etc. Lives wasted annotating things. I like to think they'd drag us from solar system to solar system for this purpose.

Gosh. This is too perfect. I feel like you've just captured the exact moment we're living in.

So that's what they are doing inside the pods in The Matrix!

Does solving captchas generate $1000/hour? I assume you're conflating amounts here, or messed up an order of magnitude somewhere.

That's just the headline of the article.

The researchers put the vast majority of this value to tracking cookies, and this revenue happens whether or not a manual challenge is completed.

That's just the direct value, how about the whole dimension of training the AI models
