Ecosia and Qwant could be just as good as DDG for privacy reason considering they are from countries respecting the GDPR. No company from the USA can be trusted with privacy due to the laws over there.

I guess it’s a mistake and should be Google instead.

It seems the dad is your friend now. You don’t need your ex opinion about who you can be friend with.

With a touch of what about the CIA.

The machines perform better with low temperature.

Sadly, it wouldn’t be surprising if they were already there. The International Consortium of Investigating Journalists (Panama Papers etc.) even has a specific hashtag for these operations, #ChinaTargets. https://www.icij.org/investigations/china-targets/china-transnational-repression-dissent-around-world/

Half of the targets interviewed by ICIJ and its media partners said the harassment extended to family members back home, who suffered intimidation and were interrogated by police or state security officials one or more times. Several victims told ICIJ that their family members in China or Hong Kong were harassed by police shortly after they had participated in protests or public events overseas. Sixty said they believed they had been followed or were targets of surveillance or spying by Chinese officials or their proxies; 27 said they were victims of an online smear campaign, and 19 said they had received suspicious messages or experienced hacking attempts, including by state actors. Some said their bank accounts in China and Hong Kong had been frozen. Officers from both the Ministry of Public Security and the Ministry of State Security — two of the Chinese agencies with intelligence capacity — were responsible for intimidating some of the targets and their families, the testimonies show. Twenty-two people said they received physical threats or had been assaulted by civilian CCP supporters.

For reference, Palantir are not the only ones to provide supposedly fancy UIs on top of data messes, there are many others like Talend, Datahaiku, Alteryx etc. Those platforms are not magic, they will still need a lot of little hands to wrangle the data mess to get it in a useful state, if there’s ever an actual motivation to do that, and it’s not all pretending to be “data driven”. Usually, the data engineering community hates those graphical tools that are designed to convince executives rather than help engineers because no UI can be as powerful as a code base in this field. Palantir is special in how they managed to convince the executives of the police and administrations.

Some people put so much time and energy in this kind of stuff. Imagine we could harvest this level of motivation from everyone and put it at the service of the sustainable transition, we would have stopped global warming at the +1.5⁰C mark.

In the current situation, you have some people becoming champions even when their physical attributes are weaker than the average of their competitors. For example some swimming champions are smaller. Wouldn’t locking them in smaller people category ruin the sport?

Not sure about peacefully, ethnic cleansing is a crime in any case, but it’s a notch down genocide. That’s why I was curious if the early theoricians mentioned something akin to it or not. So far, it seems they didn’t.

I think those 47 come from more than the 35h RTT, which generally add about 10 days to the 25 minimum. You probably have some additional branch agreements and company benefits.

I guess they accounted for that. There are about 50 Saturdays in a year, if your kind of system was not accounted for, then there would be a clear outlier because of this.

I think even without transphobia, there’s a problem of fairness that doesn’t seem to have a good science based solution for now. Would you know about one?

This seems to be a weak source.
I have found a detailed article that claims that while the historical Zionism did mention relocating non-Jewish people, killing them was only a fringe opinion among ultra-nationalist religious people. But this opinion has been spreading with every major conflict until those extremists got power in the current government and was further accelerated by the October 7 attack. https://theconversation.com/in-israel-calls-for-genocide-have-migrated-from-the-margins-to-the-mainstream-250010

Source on genocide being included in Zionism theory?

I heard it was discovered many times but it did not stick.

Completing the circle with le citron de Menton, that is mild and sweet enough to be eaten raw with the peel. https://www.bbc.com/travel/article/20220328-the-return-of-frances-lost-menton-lemon

According to furrther research I have found amphros, phibbies or slimies.

I looked it up, they are called scalies.

Option one of course, put some fabric in between and fly away. 🦇
