I don't think I've ever heard good voice acting in a JRPG, with the notable exception of Ys I & II for the TGCD, and that was released in 1989.

Hezbollah has not been known to behead and rape civilians and has in fact condemned the use of these tactics by Islamists. This conflation really draws into question the quality of your analysis.

>It's a war, you know.

It's an occupation that has been ongoing for almost 80 years, not a 'war' that began unprovoked, along with recorded history and the universe itself, on October 7th.

>Sometimes in perfectly legal and justified strikes, sometimes in attacks that contravene the laws of war.

More than half the time, these 'perfect justifications' don't hold water and in fact rest on the hope of total impunity from IHL.

>Hamas uses the civilians under their control as both a sword and a shield

Not according to any sane definition that is internationally agreed upon. Conversely, the IDF's use of human shields - as defined in IHL and in their own propaganda - is abundantly documented.

>Egypt simply refuses their obligation under IHL to allow refugees to flee, collateral damage is an unfortunate inevitability.

Rather odd that rendering Palestinians stateless is just a law of nature in your books, and that Israel's obligations as an occupying power and the agent that created a refugee crisis - ie, prosecuted a campaign of human cleansing - is not part of your calculus at all.


I too, wouldn't join the IDF.

>Israel's stated goal is to neuter Hamas and return the hostages, not kill civilians

Sure, yeah, just like it was in any number of previous operations, which at the time they declared successful, even though they did quite a bit more of the latter. Per Occam's razor, either they are prodigious bunglers, or you are overly credulous.


Yeah I'm struggling to see the value here.

The value for TFCDK was Developers don't have to learn another language, they can just continue to use existing language they already know.

Downsides are doing infrastructure in a programming language was always problematic unless developer was skilled at Ops which most who used TFCDK were not.


I ought to have phrased it I guess as "I don't agree with the value proposition", mainly because of the downside you point out. This seems superior to Pulumi, though, in that the abstraction is (was) at least owned by Hashicorp so there was less likelihood of it falling out of date and giving you footguns.

That might have been the promise but never the real value. As you say in practice the engineer needs to know ops & terraform along side their language of choice.

The real value of cdktf was more dynamic infrastructure provisioning while still having the plan / apply pattern.


Meditating to the first track on Ambient 1 is one of the only things that is guaranteed to relax me when I'm overstimulated.

I didn't think it was possible for anyone to express this thought more obnoxiously than DHH but here we are.

The obnoxious one here is the person obsessed with monetization, not the person who throws their ignorance back in their face. Every hobby these days has to be monetized; it's fucking gross.

Eh; it's maybe dumb to suggest the only way for a project to be sustainable is to monetize it, but responding with "I'm rich, you peasant, I'm above such concerns" is infinitely worse.

Is DHH (David Heinemeier Hansson) worth 100M USD? Google results say he is worth about 50M USD... so "only" two commas.

Three comma club is for billionaires.

I think the bigger thing here is that even with three commas in his bank account he lacks the good sense to not associate with DHH.

IIRC, he was on his way out by the time the BSL shenanigans were underway.

In my professional network, people mostly just reshare and like things their peers are doing or that they want to boost engagement for (mainly job postings, which they also post occasionally).

I _do_ have acquaintances I made outside of working life on LinkedIn, though - the only two that are really active are a mechanical engineer who mostly just posts about robotics and someone in marketing. I don't know if it's because I'm just really good friends with the latter person, but I've never felt annoyed reading their posts; they mostly seem to just talk about enjoying conferences or new externally facing projects - ad campaigns, large-scale promotions, etc - wherever they are currently working. I don't know if part of that is they're in the EU and the culture for marketers there is different?
