#Ynet's daily inflammatory discourse when reporting on Palestinians involved in... well, anything.

In this article, Ynet's editors chose to use the term "terrorism" in the headline (in quotes, supposedly quoting a grieving family member), in a report which describes the vandalism of military graves by two East Jerusalem teenagers (13). But the facts presented do not support the terrorism label at all. While authorities arrested the suspects, they were later released to house arrest, with some police sources indicating the incident was treated as juvenile misconduct rather than terrorism.

Why let such an easy clickbait go to waste?

Ich versuche hier so gut wie jeden Tag gute Nachrichten zu tooten um den schlechten zumindest ein bisschen entgegen zu wirken, die uns alle frustrieren und resignieren lassen.
Seid bitte so fair und kommentiert solche Toots nicht mir „Bringt doch nichts“, „Ist bestimmt nicht wahr“ o.ä., wenn ihr es nicht belegen könnt.
Das macht nichts besser und zieht nur alle noch mehr runter, und im Moment brauchen wir wirklich jedes Fünkchen Hoffnung, das wir kriegen können.
Aufgeben ist eh keine Option.

While genocidal speech seems to be tolerable to #ynet’s moderators, Naomi Klein is way too dangerous. I believe that this translation to Hebrew is automatically removed by their system.

It’s a translation of this quote:

[…] It’s a simple fable of good and evil, in which Israel is unblemished in its innocence, deserving unquestioning support, while its enemies are all monsters, deserving of violence unbounded by laws or borders, whether in Gaza, Jenin, Beirut, Damascus or Tehran. It’s a story in which Israel’s very identity as a nation is forever fused with the terror it suffered on 7 October, an event that, in Netanyahu’s telling, will be seamlessly merged both with the Nazi Holocaust and a battle for the soul of western civilization.

Isn't it cute? :blobcataww:

"What's Jewish about her? Does she speak Hebrew? Observe Shabbat? Study Talmud? The word 'Jewish' has lost its meaning in the USA. The biggest antisemites there now are Jews."

Quoting Nicole Holofcener: "Antisemitism is a very real thing, but what Israel is doing in Gaza is shocking"

Holofcener is an American director and screenwriter known for Walking and Talking (1996), Lovely & Amazing (2001), Please Give (2010), and Enough Said (2013). and contributed to television series like Sex and the City and One Mississippi.

"We need to go and burn these American Jews, they are the grandchildren of the Judenrats"

Die Copernicus-Daten bestätigen meine Prognose: Danach war der September '24 mit 0,73°C über dem Mittel 1991-2020 (und 1,54°C über dem Mittel 1850-1900) fast exakt so warm wie der August (0,71°C). Es ist inzwischen fast sicher, dass 2024 noch wärmer wird als das Rekordjahr 2023.

If you agree, PLEASE REPOST

But going back to the first post in this thread, it's tempting to look at the "Computer schematic as Neural Net" diagrams and think "Well of course: Turing was obsessed with AI, and is considered a founder of the discipline!" I think this can be misleading.

Most of Turing's writing on AI came after he'd left the NPL, spent a year back at Cambridge, and finally settled in Manchester. He could have been influenced by Mcculloch and Pitts regarding Perceptrons, but his schemes did not change the reinforcement values in response to signals.

In the text of the paper, Turing spends a lot of time complaining about the problems caused by too much interconnectedness in a signal-processing circuit. He explicitly described the methods by which he tried to avoid having to deal with interference in the system, which he called "bending before the storm". It just followed logically for him that you'd reduce the problem to components that had outputs which "depend only on certain special characteristics of the inputs".

Turing's design informed the Bendix, of course, but also the other major drum-memory serial computer of the era: The LGP series of computers.

Margaret Hamilton, of Apollo Computer and SAGE fame, worked for Lorenz and learned to code on an LGP-30 to produce weather forecasts for him: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bVRytYSTEk&t=2173s

In addition, the LGP computer line (and in particular the difficulty of optimising instruction locations to minimise waiting for the serial storage) was immortalised in Ed Nather's The Story of Mel: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Story_of_Mel
