Hamas plans 'largest' operation against Israeli-backed gangs in Gaza
Hamas is intensifying its security campaign against armed gangs and militias in Gaza that collaborate with the Israeli military, officials say, aiming to restore full control and stability across the strip.
A senior security source from Gaza’s Ministry of Interior has said that Hamas will soon launch its largest operation yet to dismantle remaining armed gangs that continue to work with the Israeli occupation forces.
Since the October 10 ceasefire, Hamas forces have been actively targeting these militias, successfully disarming several factions, including the notorious Doghmush clan in Gaza City.
However, some militias remain active in areas still under Israeli control, notably the so-called “Popular Forces” led by Yasser Abu Shabab in eastern Rafah and the “Popular Army” headed by Ashraf al-Mansi in northern Gaza.
These groups have been identified as collaborators, receiving arms, funding, and logistical support from the Israeli military.
“The number of gang members collaborating with the occupation is now limited to a few hundred across Gaza, excluding the Abu Shabab militia, which alone has around 2,000 members,” the security official said.
“These groups have been implicated in kidnappings, assassinations, sabotage, and providing armed cover for Israeli forces.”
Recent intelligence gathered through interrogations reveals the extent of coordination between these militias and the Israeli army, including carrying out security sweeps and attacks on resistance fighters.
“Militia members often attempt raids near Israeli positions, but Hamas security forces confront and neutralize them,” the official added.
The Israeli army has acknowledged Hamas’s reassertion of control over areas it withdrew from, with local militias reportedly disbanded or defeated, except for the persistent Abu Shabab group.
The Interior Ministry noted that al-Mansi’s “Popular Army,” active near the northern Erez Crossing, is the weakest faction and operates under close Israeli protection, complicating Hamas’s efforts to confront them directly.
Hamas’s crackdown has involved seizing large quantities of weapons, including Kalashnikov rifles, machine guns, ammunition, and vehicles supplied by Israel to these militias.
Although these groups receive only small arms, their leadership obtains funds, advanced supplies, and direct orders from Israeli soldiers for operations targeting Palestinians and resistance members.
Several high-profile kidnappings have been linked to these militias, including the abduction of Dr. Marwan al-Hums, head of Gaza’s Health Ministry hospitals, and his daughter, further underscoring their threat to Gaza’s internal security.
Despite the West's criticism of Hamas’s security campaign, many local tribal leaders and communities have expressed support, viewing it as essential to ending collaboration with Israel and preserving Gaza’s sovereignty.
The Hamas security source said an amnesty window was offered to militia members willing to disarm and surrender, except those involved in killings or torture. The period officially ended last Sunday, but operations continue.
“In the coming days, we will launch our largest security campaign yet, targeting multiple areas where these groups remain,” the official said. “Our goal is to eliminate all collaborators and ensure peace and security for the people of Gaza.”
Hamas officials and Gaza security sources say the Israeli military, and elements within the US policy apparatus are seeking to use these militias as proxies to undermine Hamas’s authority and fracture Gaza after the ceasefire — an effort they failed through months‑long Israeli military invasion.
Last Thursday, US President Donald Trump warned that he would endorse attacks on Hamas, effectively breaking the ceasefire, if it continues to target gangs and Israeli collaborators in Gaza.
“If Hamas continues to kill people in Gaza, which was not the Deal, we will have no choice but to go in and kill them,” Trump wrote in a social media post.
The threats against Hamas appear to signal an about-face from Trump, who earlier in the week suggested that he was fine with the group’s crackdown on gangs in the Palestinian territory.

Gaza expected 6,600 aid trucks by October 20, only 986 arrived
The Gaza Government Media Office says that merely 986 aid trucks have entered the besieged territory since the ceasefire between the Hamas resistance movement and the Israeli regime went into force on October 10.
The office reported that the arrived aid trucks account for only 15 percent of the 6,600 trucks that were expected to arrive by October 20.
It said the convoys consisted solely of 14 trucks that were transporting cooking gas and 28 trucks that were carrying solar fuel utilized for powering bakeries, generators, hospitals, and other vital facilities.
The supply continues to be critically inadequate after months of blockade and the “systematic destruction resulting from the genocide perpetrated by the ‘Israeli’ occupation against our people in the Gaza Strip,” it said.
Officials said that the average number of trucks that have been entering Gaza daily since the ceasefire entered into effect is just 89, which is considerably less than the 600 trucks that were previously agreed upon.
The statement characterized the situation as proof of Israel’s ongoing “policy of strangulation, starvation, and human blackmail” directed towards nearly 2 million inhabitants of Gaza.
“These limited quantities do not cover the minimum humanitarian and living needs,” the office warned.
It underlined the critical necessity for a consistent and unimpeded delivery of no fewer than 600 trucks each day, which should include food, medical and relief supplies, fuel, and cooking gas in order to satisfy fundamental survival needs.
The Government Media Office has reaffirmed that authorities in Gaza are prepared to collaborate with international humanitarian and relief organizations to enable the entry and distribution of aid throughout all governorates and vital sectors “for the benefit of our resilient Palestinian people.”
Since the implementation of the Gaza ceasefire deal in early October, the Palestinian Ministry of Health has documented approximately 90 Palestinian fatalities and more than 300 injuries resulting from continuous Israeli assaults throughout the strip. At least 100 ceasefire violations have been reported as well.
This is while a delegation of Hamas officials, attending talks with Turkish officials in Qatar, has stated that the Palestinian group remains committed to the ceasefire deal despite Israel’s “repeated violations.”
The first phase of the US-brokered ceasefire was aimed at bringing an end to Israel’s assault, a partial withdrawal of its troops to a so-called yellow line along Gaza’s borders, and a modest increase in humanitarian aid.
Last Monday, as part of the deal Hamas released all living captives, as well as the remains of 12 of the 28 dead Israeli captives.
In return, Israel freed 2,000 Palestinian detainees and returned 15 Palestinian bodies for every one dead Israeli captive returned.
Since the onset of the Israeli genocidal war in October 2023, the occupying regime has killed at least 68,229 Palestinians — mostly women and children — and reduced Gaza to ruins, drawing global outrage and calls for accountability.
Experts warn that the true death toll could reach hundreds of thousands once the missing and those buried beneath the ruins are fully counted.

Amazon to replace 600,000 US workers by 2033 with robots
Amazon plans to use automation to replace more than 600,000 workers who would otherwise be hired in the United States by 2033, according to internal documents obtained by The New York Times. By that time, the company is expected to sell about twice as many goods as it does today.Amazon’s robotics team is reportedly working toward the goal of automating 75% of its entire business. By 2027, it is expected to eliminate around 160,000 jobs in the US, saving the company an estimated $12.6 billion — equivalent to around 30 cents per item delivered.

The AWS Outage Bricked People’s $2,700 Smartbeds
The AWS Outage Bricked People’s $2,700 Smartbeds
Sleepers snoozing in Eight Sleep smartbeds had a bad night on Monday when a major outage of Amazon Web Services (AWS) caused their beds to malfunction. Some were left with the bed’s heat blasting, others were left in a sitting position and unable to recline. One woman said her bed went haywire and she had to unplug it from the wall.At around 3 a.m. ET on Monday morning the US-EAST-1 AWS cluster went down and screwed up internet connected services across the planet. Customers for the banks Lloyds and Halifax couldn’t access their accounts. United Airlines check-ins stopped functioning. And people who rest in Eight Sleep beds awoke to find their mattresses had turned against them.
An Eight Sleep bed is a smart bed that starts at $2,700. Users provide their own mattress and Eight Sleep sells them a mattress cover and a “Pod” that acts as the brain of the system. If customers want to spend a few thousand more, they can get a base that adjusts the position of the mattress, provides biometric sleeping data, and heats and cools the sleeper. Customers must also subscribe to a service for Eight Sleep, which ranges from $17 to $33 a month.
Eight Sleep runs on the cloud and when the servers go down or the customer’s internet goes out it bricks the bed. There’s no offline mode. Customers have complained about the lack of an offline mode for a while, but the AWS outage focused their rage.
playlist.megaphone.fm?p=TBIEA2…
“So apparently, when my internet goes down, my bed decides to go on strike too. A quick outage, and boom—no change in sleep position available, not even with manual taps,” one customer on r/eightsleep said. “Maybe consider giving people a grace period before their $5,000 bed locks them into the world’s most ergonomic sitting position. AWS attack or Internet down for a few hours should not brick my bed.”“Cloud only is unacceptable,” said another. “It’s 2025 there is no reason an internet or AWS server outage should impact your entire customer base's sleep—especially given the price tag of your product. Need EightSleep’s product team to opine here, your customer base demands it!”
“My pod is at +5 and I am sweating cuz I can’t turn it down or off,” said one comment.
Eight Sleep CEO Matteo Franceschetti apologized for the restless night in a statement posted to X. “The AWS outage has impacted some of our users since last night, disrupting their sleep. That is not the experience we want to provide and I want to apologize for it,” he said. He added that the company was restoring the bed’s features as AWS came back online and promised to outage-proof the Pods.
“Mine is still not working—it went super haywire and still seems to be turning on and off randomly with the inability to stop or control it. I had to unplug it,” ESPN host Victoria Arlen said on X, replying to Franceschetti. “I tried to get it going again and it’s still uncontrollable with the system turning on and off.”
Would be great if my bed wasn’t stuck in an inclined position due to an AWS outage. Cmon now
— Brandon (@Brandon25774008) October 21, 2025
“Would be great if my bed wasn’t stuck in an inclined position due to an AWS outage. Cmon now,” @Brandon25774008 said on X.The truth is that so long as Eight Sleep beds have to communicate with a server to function, they’re always in danger of dying. That point of failure means the beds could go out at any time leaving the people who paid $5,000 for a fancy bed with little recourse. And, of course, no company lasts forever.
“When ES eventually goes bust, our pods will be bricked,” one Redditor said. “The fact that the pods cannot be controlled when you don’t have the internet is diabolical. I wish I knew this before purchasing. This basically means in the possibly near future, all of our pods will be bricked […] ES need to get their heads out of their ass and for once do a pro customer change and introduce an ‘offline’ mode where we can connect to the pod directly and at the very least change the temperature. It has wifi, it can make its own SSID, just make it work ES.”
Pro-active ES users have already found one solution: jailbreak the Pod. The ES sub is—at a minimum—$200 a year, the Pod uploads multiple GBs of telemetry data to ES servers every month, and when the internet goes down the bed dies. If you must own a $5,000 bed that heats and cools you dynamically, shouldn’t you take full control of it?
There’s an active Discord and a Github for a group of Eight Sleep snoozers who’ve decided to do just that. According to the GitHub, the jailbreak “allows complete control of device WITHOUT requiring internet access. If you lose internet, your pod WILL NOT turn off, it will continue working!”
Data centers are vulnerable. Server clusters go down. As long as there is a single point of failure and your device is commuting back to a network out of your control, it’s a risk. We have allowed tech companies to mediate the most basic functions of our lives, from cooking to travel to sleep. The AWS and ES outage is a stark reminder that we should do what we can to limit the control these tech companies have over our lives.
“I’m continuously horrified that I inextricably linked my sleep and therefore health to a cloud provider’s reliability,” one person said in the comments on Reddit.

We were originally discussing why subscriptions can make sense to fund ongoing costs and you replied:
What kind of subscriptions require large infrastructure?
My response was based on the original topic of services provided by large companies, not self hosting for individual consumption. I also run a proxmox server and have similar requirements to you, but this is not indicative of the type of infrastructure a larger company with higher SLAs and demands would require.
Saying you can slap together a couple proxmox servers and have something equivalent to what it takes to run Netflix is highly disingenuous. Saying you can do the same and have an alternative to Netflix for YOU is true, but not what we're discussing.
Ah i completely missed that context.
I thought we were just discussing consumer subscriptions. I don't often think about corporate entities as customers because often the product is a complete different class i don't qualify for and i have radically position on economic organisations
Interesting thing i just found out is my internet providers has a plan for business which is identical to the one i own except its cheaper and doubles the upload capacities.
As far as my level of knowledge , people at work come to me because i understand computers, but not for finances.

We're a few major breakthroughs away
We are dozens of world-changing breakthroughs in the understanding of consciousness, sapience, sentience, and even more in computer and electrical engineering away from being able to even understand what the final product of an AGI development program would look like.
We are not anywhere near close to AGI.
We are not anywhere near close to AGI.
That's my point.
The major breakthroughs I'm talking about don't necessarily involve consciousness/sentience, those would be required to replicate a human, which isn't the mark. The target is to learn, create, and adapt like a human would. Current AI products merely produce results that are derivatives of human-generated data, and merely replicate existing work in similar contexts. If I ask an AI tool to tell me what's needed to achieve AGI, it would reference whatever research has been fed into the model, not perform some new research.
AI tools like LLMs and image generation can feel human because they're derivative of human work, a proper AGI solution probably wouldn't feel human since it would work differently to achieve the same ends. It's like using a machine learning program to optimize an algorithm vs a mathematician, they'll use different methods and their solutions will look very different, but they'll achieve the same end goals (i.e. come up with a very similar answer). Think of Data in Star Trek, he is portrayed as using very different methods to solve problems, but he's just as effective if not more effective than his human counterparts.
Personally, I think solving quantum computing is needed to achieve AGI, whether we use quantum computing or not in the end result, because that involves creating a deterministic machine out of a probabilistic one, and that's similar to how going from human brains (which I believe are probabilistic) to digital brains would likely work, just in reverse. And we're quite far from solving quantum computers for any reasonable size of data. I'm guessing practical quantum computers are 20-50 years out, and AGI is probably even further, but if we're able to make a breakthrough in the next 10 years for quantum computing, I'd revise my estimate for AGI downward.
Bari Weiss Gets To Work ‘Fixing’ CBS ‘Bias’ — By Making It More Biased
For more than fifty years the U.S. right wing has embraced a neat trick: by claiming that literally anything in factual opposition to their beliefs is “biased” and therefore must be discarded as unreliable, they’ve bullied U.S. media into becoming a feckless mess terrified of accusations of “liberal bias.”Of course, if you ask the actual media academics who study U.S. media bias, they’ll quickly tell you that the U.S. media generally veers toward center-right corporatism because we’ve let it consolidate at the hands of center-right billionaires. The obvious result is a hot feckless mess that lacks the courage to speak truth to power, something that became obvious to even the most obtuse with the rise of U.S. authoritarianism.
Still, this idea that the U.S. media is “too woke” and “has a liberal bias” is central to the generational Republican mission of creating a press that only exists to make affluent Conservatives happy.

Democratic senator protests Trump’s ‘grave threats’ in marathon overnight floor speech | CNN Politics
“I’ve come to the Senate floor tonight to ring the alarm bells. We’re in the most perilous moment, the biggest threat to our republic since the Civil War. President Trump is shredding our Constitution,” Merkley said in his opening remarks.The Democratic senator pointed to the Trump administration’s previous halting of research grants for universities in its battle over campus oversight as well as the recent indictments of several of the president’s political opponents as well as his push to deploy National Guard troops to Portland.
“President Trump wants us to believe that Portland, Oregon, in my home state, is full of chaos and riots. Because if he can say to the American people that there are riots, he can say there’s a rebellion. And if there’s a rebellion, he can use that to strengthen his authoritarian grip on our nation,” Merkley said.

When AWS went down, users lost access to the app that manages its water-cooled coils, leaving them stuck with whatever setting was last active.
That's ridiculous. The app should merely talk to the device over wifi, if available. The cloud should only be used to connect from outside the wifi network.
Why is everything so crappy?
What's wrong with webapps?
I get that many could be static pages, but you're comparing web vs desktop. And in that case, I prefer web most of the time. Why? It works the same everywhere, and I can probably access it just fine on my phone without having to get their mobile app, which probably has fewer features and more telemetry.
Web doesn't make sense for everything, but it's far better than desktop apps for relatively simple use cases. If the app isn't performance sensitive and doesn't need to store a ton of data, web is my preferred platform, especially since I'm a Linux user and would likely need to run the app through WINE instead.
Not desktop. Native. You can build native apps for smartphones and pretty much anything. Web comes into play when you decide you won't build native version of what you want. In some cases that is guided by thoughts like "I know web will fit this project. I know the platform and will remember to keep memory and internet usage low", but in most cases it's about "no idea what that startup is about, but I know some AngularJS and they said I can use AWS so that'll do".
Similar thing is happening now with Unreal Engine 5. The difference between devs and webdevs became very similar to the difference between coding and vibe coding.
and doesn't need to store a ton of data
I know by data you mean "data I care about as a dev" but that should also include data that is actually processed and saved on user's device. And webapps are notoriously bad at keeping their caches and data usage low.
The difference between devs and webdevs
There is no difference, webdev is someone who solves problems with web tech, mobile dev is someone who does mobile apps, embedded dev works with low level components, etc. It's all development, and often the two will mix.
For example, I worked at a startup using C for embedded stuff, Go for the server stuff, and web tech for the FE. Rust wasn't out yet, so C was the best option for interfacing with the board components (in this case a math module for our signal processing), Go was a good mix of performance and ease of training new devs, and a web FE was the lowest barrier to getting our customers using our product (basically a high end IOT device). We built a small native FE for certain simulations, and eventually moved it to a server with a web FE.
At my current role, we build a reporting and simulation app for a niche industry. We do everything from simple forms to 3D rendering to simulations that take hours to complete (most are 15-45min). Our customers use crappy laptops, so doing the processing locally isn't an option (they probably don't have enough RAM anyway), so we're going to need a server. Because of that, we decided to build it as a web app. We still have native components (some simulations use C++, another was Fortran until recently, etc), and they're maintained by Ph.Ds in our field because the hard part isn't the coding (our JS specialists could handle that, they've built a 3D app in the last few months with complex transformations and calculations due to business login needs), but knowing the math behind it all, hence the researchers.
Not all web apps are overengineered crap because they hired a dev team to build a static site, there are apps like the two I mentioned that do interesting things and happen to use web technologies.
Not all web apps are overengineered crap
I didn't say that. There are always well engineered apps and things. But few. Compared to that, a lot of mainstream desktop apps are now web apps for no good reason. The actual reason is webdevs not challenging themselves to become something else or at least better.
If I read your case correctly, it's basically "customers use crappy laptops -> we decided to make them use web browsers" which sounds insane to me because web content IS the reason why tons of otherwise unnecessary upgrades are done in recent 10 years or so. Office guys can't use Chrome with just 8 GB of RAM because it will affect their business performance.
Not that I don't believe your case doesn't contain other specifics that make web a right choice. And I don't need to know more of that. It's just how it sounded to me.
it’s basically “customers use crappy laptops -> we decided to make them use web browsers” which sounds insane to me because web content IS the reason why tons of otherwise unnecessary upgrades are done in recent 10 years or so
We do processing on the cloud because our customers use crappy laptops. We use a web browser because:
- convincing customers to get approval for our app is hard (corporate IT), whereas they already have a recent browser
- it's faster to get the result we want
- our dev env (macOS) is different from our target platform (Windows); this is because it's easier to work around our IT Dept than with them (and nobody on the team likes Windows), and our servers are Linux, and macOS is close enough for BE dev
- audits are easier - just need to test the API, not the whole desktop app platform since auditors trust the browser
The same is true for my the other project I mentioned. If your business is largely B2B, then browser apps are a much easier sell than a desktop app. We're getting a little pushback as we're breaking into a new market, so we're turning to Tauri to provide a desktop-app experience, a different keep the web app for the rest of our customers.
My Car Is Becoming a Brick
Sounds like hell on wheels is going to become common.
For most of its short life, my Tesla Model 3 has aged beautifully. Since I bought the car, in 2019, it has received a number of new features simply by updating its software. My navigation system no longer just directs me to EV chargers along my route—it also shows me, in real time, how many plugs are free. With the push of a button, I can activate “Car Wash Mode,” and the Tesla will put itself in neutral and disable the windshield wipers. Some updates are more helpful than others: Thanks to Elon Musk and his middle-school humor, I can now play an updated array of fart sounds when an unsuspecting passenger sits down.But Musk is already starting to leave my car behind. In July, Tesla rolled out a version of Musk’s AI assistant, Grok, to its vehicles. Even as a chatbot skeptic, I could see the usefulness of asking my car for information without having to fumble with my phone. Alas, at present Grok runs only on Teslas made in the past few years, which have a more advanced processor to power their infotainment system. My sedan is simply too old.
Cars used to be entirely mechanical objects. With hard work and expertise, basically any old vehicle could be restored and operated: On YouTube, you can watch a man drive a 1931 Alvis to McDonald’s. But the car itself was stuck in time. If the automaker added a feature to the following year’s model, you just didn’t get it. Things have changed. My Model 3 has few dials or buttons; nearly every feature is routed through the giant central touch screen. It’s not just Tesla: Many new cars—and especially electric cars—are now stuffed with software, receiving over-the-air updates to fix bugs, tweak performance, or add new functionality.

“Gianni il gufo e i racconti del Bosco U-magico. Un’estate indimenticabile” è un romanzo ambientato in una piccola comunità, creata dalla fantasia dell’autrice e abitata da animali di diverse specie, che vivono insieme in perfetta armonia. Il libro si suddivide in brevi episodi, permettendo al lettore di conoscere gli amici di Gianni, protagonista principale, che, con la sua saggezza, riesce a venire in soccorso di tutti coloro che gli chiedono aiuto, per risolvere piccoli e grandi problemi quotidiani. Nella comunità gli abitanti svolgono la loro vita come se fossero esseri umani, da qui deriva il nome U-magico. Ogni racconto si conclude positivamente lasciando a chi legge uno spunto di riflessione su diverse tematiche, alcune delle quali relative all’educazione civica, dal rispetto e tutela dell’ambiente all’importanza dell’amicizia e della solidarietà, dal ruolo degli anziani nella società al rapporto tra genitori e figli, dai pericoli nell’utilizzo scorretto della rete e dei social all’accettazione della sconfitta.

Amalia Scalise e i suoi racconti: quando la fiaba incontra l’educazione
Un libro che incanta grandi e piccoli
I Racconti di Amalia Scalise sono stati una vera sorpresa. Fin da quando ho avuto il libro tra le mani, sono rimasta affascinata dalla copertina vivace e dalle illustrazioni colorate che trasmettono allegria e poesia.
Ma è solo leggendo le pagine che ho compreso la vera magia: questo è un libro che ogni bambino dovrebbe poter leggere — e che ogni adulto dovrebbe raccontargli.
Da educatrice e laureata in arte, ho trovato tra queste pagine preziosi insegnamenti di vita, presentati con semplicità e dolcezza. Gianni, il gufo saggio, e il Bosco U-magico non sono solo personaggi e luoghi immaginari: sono metafore di una comunità solidale, dove la gentilezza, la gratitudine e l’amicizia sono la vera magia.
Fiabe e mente dei bambini: cosa dice la scienza sul potere dei racconti
Introduzione
Le fiabe non sono solo ricordi d’infanzia o storie per addormentarsi. Dietro quel “C’era una volta” si nasconde un potente strumento educativo: un linguaggio che aiuta i bambini a sviluppare linguaggio, empatia e fiducia nel mondo. La psicologia e le neuroscienze confermano che raccontare storie ai più piccoli è un atto che nutre la mente e calma le emozioni.
Un viaggio antico quanto l’uomo
Le fiabe affondano le loro radici in tempi remoti, quando la parola era l’unico mezzo per tramandare saggezza e valori. Prima che venissero scritte, erano raccontate attorno al fuoco, nei villaggi e nelle famiglie, come strumenti di coesione sociale e di educazione morale. Nel XVII secolo Charles Perrault trasformò quei racconti popolari in capolavori letterari come Cenerentola e Cappuccetto Rosso. Più tardi, i Fratelli Grimm e Hans Christian Andersen ne consolidarono il valore educativo e simbolico. Nel Novecento, Gianni Rodari ne rinnovò lo spirito, portando la fiaba nel mondo moderno come palestra per la fantasia e per la libertà di pensiero.
Come le fiabe aiutano il cervello a crescere
Le ricerche neuroscientifiche mostrano che ascoltare o leggere fiabe attiva simultaneamente le aree del cervello legate al linguaggio, alla memoria e alle emozioni. Ogni racconto diventa una palestra mentale dove il bambino impara a:
• costruire nessi logici e sequenze temporali;
• comprendere la relazione tra causa ed effetto;
• ampliare il vocabolario e sviluppare l’immaginazione.
Il linguaggio simbolico delle fiabe consente inoltre di affrontare temi complessi — paura, giustizia, perdita, speranza — in modo accessibile e rassicurante.
Il potere psicologico dei racconti
Le fiabe sono il primo “specchio dell’anima”. In esse, draghi, streghe e mostri rappresentano le paure interiori che il bambino impara a riconoscere e superare. Seguendo l’eroe o l’eroina nel loro viaggio, i piccoli lettori apprendono che le difficoltà si possono affrontare e che la crescita passa attraverso il coraggio e la fiducia. Ogni lieto fine diventa così una conquista simbolica: la prova che anche il dolore può trasformarsi in forza.
Un’eredità da preservare
In un’epoca dominata dalla tecnologia, le fiabe continuano a essere uno degli strumenti più efficaci per costruire empatia, pensiero critico e identità. Leggere o raccontare una storia a un bambino significa offrirgli un modello di mondo, un rifugio emotivo e una bussola morale. Per questo, educatori e psicologi raccomandano di mantenere viva la narrazione orale, accanto ai libri illustrati e agli strumenti digitali.
Il libro in sè
Il piccolo, ma grande libro di fiabe e racconti di Amalia Scalise ha vinto il concorso letterario di Canti di…versi di San Pietro Magisano Calabria. Quando l’autrice mi ha comunicato la notizia non ne sono per niente rimasta sorpresa, ero certa che questo piccolo tesoro sarebbe stato notato. Leggendo questi racconti ho trovato molti spunti, Gianni ci insegna a guardare oltre, a non dare per scontato alcune cose, a non cadere nella disperazione davanti a piccoli errori, a comprendere che anche quando sembra che tutto stia andando storto, in realtà, bisogna guardare ciò che è accaduto di positivo e qualcosa, anche piccolino verrà sempre a galla.
Amicizia, Gratitudine, lealtà, comprensione sono solo alcuni dei dettami che si possono incontrare nel Bosco U-magico dove, la vera magia è l’amicizia.
Conosciamo L’autrice
Ho posto quattro domandine all’autrice che, ho il piacere di condividere con voi
Chi è Gianni il gufo? Ti sei ispirata a qualcuno in particolare?
Nel mio libro, Gianni incarna la figura paterna che tutti dovrebbero avere:
presente, solida, rassicurante. Nella mia vita ho avuto un legame profondo con
i miei genitori e la fortuna di avere accanto uno zio che è stato per me come un
secondo padre. Questo mi ha permesso di percepire la presenza maschile come
qualcosa di protettivo e confortante.
Al contrario, il rapporto con i nonni è stato quasi assente: quelli paterni
vivevano troppo lontano, mentre quelli materni sono venuti a mancare quando
ero ancora molto piccola. È da questo vuoto che nasce Nonna Gilda, un
personaggio che nel libro rappresenta la nonna ideale, così come l’ho sempre
immaginata e come avrei voluto che fosse, se avessi avuto la possibilità di
conoscerla davvero.
Dove nascono le tue fiabe?
Credo che le mie favole nascano dal legame profondo con mia madre,
un’artista capace di trasformare la realtà attraverso la pittura, le parole e
l’immaginazione. Da bambina ascoltavo le storie che inventava per me,
viaggiando con lei in mondi incantati dove diventavo l’eroina di mille
avventure. È da quell’ascolto e da quella meraviglia che è nato il mio amore
per la narrazione. Scrivere favole, oggi, è il mio modo di raccogliere la sua
eredità invisibile e continuare a dialogare con lei.
3. Il bosco U-magico è un luogo in particolare a te caro?
Sì, i boschi mi sono profondamente cari. Varcarne la soglia è come entrare in
un tempo sospeso, dove tutto parla un linguaggio antico e silenzioso. Tra gli
alberi avverto un legame primordiale con la terra, un senso di mistero e di
incanto che invita all’ascolto. È un luogo di pace e di protezione, dove il
mondo sembra ritrovare la propria armonia e anch’io, per un momento, con
esso.
Si dice che i bambini nascano sotto i cavoli, ma la mia cicogna deve
essersi smarrita per strada, attratta dal profumo di muschio, e sono finita
sotto una piantina di fragoline di bosco.
Ultima domanda nei racconti brevi hai inserito tanti avvenimenti e tante lezioni
importanti che dovremo tutti tenere a mente: la generosità, l’amicizia, l’aiuto
reciproco, l’ascolto attivo e non passivo e molte altre cose, quale è la tua
speranza nei confronti dei piccoli lettori? Cosa speri che imparino leggendo
Gianni il gufo?
Le mie favole nascono anche dal mio essere insegnante, un ruolo che sento di
portare con me ben oltre le mura della scuola. Attraverso queste storie desidero
accompagnare i giovani lettori in piccole riflessioni sulla vita quotidiana,
invitandoli a guardare il mondo con curiosità e sensibilità. Più che trasmettere
nozioni, mi interessa coltivare uno sguardo attento, capace di empatia e di
ascolto. Il messaggio che mi sta più a cuore è che i veri eroi non sono quelli dei
racconti epici, ma coloro che, nella vita di ogni giorno, sanno vivere in armonia
e tendere la mano agli altri.
Conclusione
In un mondo sempre più veloce, dove l’attenzione si frammenta tra schermi e notifiche, le fiabe restano un’oasi di silenzio e significato. Raccontarle a un bambino significa donargli tempo, ascolto e immaginazione: tre strumenti che nessun algoritmo potrà mai sostituire. Ogni storia, anche la più semplice, insegna che le difficoltà si affrontano, che il bene può vincere e che dentro ciascuno di noi vive un eroe in attesa di scoprirsi. Perché, in fondo, le fiabe non servono solo ai bambini: ricordano agli adulti come si fa a sperare.
Sono fortemente convinta che questo libro sia un tesoro imperdibile, il mio augurio e che possa anche essere preso in considerazione dalle scolaresche.

I do not support Digital IDs (part 2)
Since I last published a blog post about the UK Governments Digital ID plans, a few things have happened.
I remain unsatisfied by the governments responses and attitudes and I am still concerned about this proposal.
First, the petition on the government website has reached nearly 3 million signatures.
That’s nearly 1 in 25 people in the country that disagree with the plans.
The government gave a useless response to this, and it is awaiting a debate in parliament
I also wrote an email to my local MP (who is a member of the Labour Government), detailing my concerns.
The response I got back failed to accurately address any of the points that I had raised, and stinks of PR-drivel that they’ve obviously been instructed to copy and paste back to anyone that broaches the subject.
- It doubled down on the line that this was merely a proposal and there would be a consultation. I’ve read and responded to a few public consultations in the past few years, I know how they work. The government has an idea, and they ask just enough questions worded in a leading way to get answers that can lightly reshape what they’re planning, but never enough to risk the possibility that the project should be substantially changed or cancelled altogether.
- The response reiterated that this would in effect be a digital ID card – already a deviation from the initial idea that it would simply be a digital right to work check.
- It used mealymouthed jargon about “encryption and authentication and decentralising”, reminding me that “the highest data security standards will be followed as well as best practice”. Unfortunately for my MP, I actually understand cybersecurity, and these buzzwords with no substance behind them do not fill me with any kind of confidence.
- The response uses fearmongering, scaring me about the risk that having multiple documents creates opportunity for “forgery and fraud” should I not have a digital ID, without addressing the very obvious question of how consolidating ID into a single point of failure reduces the risk of identity fraud, rather than heightening it because now there’s only a single document you need to forge.
- It repeats the nonsensical doublespeak that the scheme “will not be compulsory”, while beginning the very next sentence with the words “It would be mandatory”.
- The MP attempts a final cynical tug at my heartstrings talking about how this will help disabled people, therefore the scheme is justifiable for everyone.
Not once did he answer my concerns about the ultimate goals of the scheme, how accessible the implementation would be, nor what the security of implementation and trust of management would actually look like.
I have given up hope of my MP taking my concerns seriously on this issue.
Yesterday (at time of writing) the UK Government recently held an informal debate (we are still awaiting the full scale debate demanded by the aforementioned petition) about their forthcoming Digital ID plans.
In it the official responses from Labour party representatives revealed yet more cause for concern.
They attempted to deviate discussion by accusing the SNP of hypocrisy because in Scotland they have smart cards (entirely voluntary), digital government accounts (entirely voluntary and nothing to do with a national identity scheme), and previously had a COVID system (necessary in the midst of a global deadly pandemic, mothballed when it was no longer needed, and again nothing to do with a national Id scheme).
They failed to address any of the concerns that opponents brought up, surrounding what the goals of the scheme would actually be achieved, how issues with digital connectivity would be addressed.
The government has repeatedly made claims that because it works in Estonia it must therefore be able to work in the UK, with no mention given to the fact that Estonia has been perfecting and adapting this for decades, on top of more decades of non-digital ID use, whereas the UK is jumping into this idea completely virgin.
A point of great concern rose when the government started talking about federation of data storage during this debate.
It seems the government has completely dispensed of the idea of this being a simple digital right to work check, even though barely a month has passed since the last big announcement of this project being exactly that and nothing more.
Instead, the scheme (card? app? single sign on? API? dashboard?) will no longer be the digital equivalent of some sort of right to work check, and now might instead be some sort of federated data sharing service between government departments.
Federated data storage brings with it huge considerations about privacy and security – you need to design endpoints for accessing data and making sure they are entirely secure, you may need to digitise whole datasets to make sure they can interact with this, you need to ensure that permissions, controls, logging, implementation security is standardised across every government department and public body that might interact with this.
While I would in fact be very pleased if the government were to make improvements in these areas as a matter of course, the fact these requirements seem to have been tacked on to this proposal as an afterthought does not fill me with confidence.
Viewing this cynically, it is clear that the government does not actually want to commit to detailing what exactly the digital ID scheme will look like, and I suspect there are 3 reasons for this:
- The government does not actually know what they want to do here. Some advisor behind the scenes suggested this proposal because they need to be seen to do something about immigration, only because they themselves have been making such a big issue of it, so they suggested an ID system and tried to water it down to make it palatable.
- When the backlash happened and they were faced with serious questions about how it would actually be implemented and run they realise that the scheme is likely unworkable. So they are deliberately keeping it nebulous and fluid that way it can change while still keeping the same name, so that much like the ship of Theseus, in a few years time before the next election they can claim they successfully implemented “something” that they promised, regardless of whatever it actually is.
- By keeping the details vague, it stifles debate and accountability. You can’t challenge someone if the thing you’re challenging changes to fit whatever your opponent desires most in the moment. You can’t later accuse someone of lying or failing to deliver if they never actually promised anything concrete.
I will still keep raising my concerns, but I am at a bit of a loss as to what I can actually do short of screaming into the void.

“Are the NPCs in Pokémon Legends: Z-A okay?” — “Ma gli NPC in Leggende Pokémon Z-A stanno bene?”
È intrigante vedere che, se da un lato ci sono i gamer brainrottati come me, che con Pokémon Z-A stanno godendo, e dall’altro tutti quelli ancora sani che, loro malgrado, anche questo giochino non riescono proprio a farselo andare giù… in mezzo ci sono tutti quei pazzi che ogni giorno mi danno l’ispirazione per continuare a vivere che, anziché pensare alle cose importanti dell’esperienza, vanno a cercare i dettagli inutili ma pazzurdi… tipo i dialoghi degli NPC in giro per Luminopoli, e la grande scoperta che viene da una passeggiata del genere è che questi individui sono quasi tutti assolutamente cucinati. 🌚youtube.com/watch?v=c2Gzqglt_X…
Lasciando stare il dibattito su se sia buono avere la maggior parte degli NPC nella città con questi dialoghi pop-up che si leggono in automatico, e non solo quelli vecchio stile a cui bisogna parlare interagendoci (che ci sono, ma di meno), per cui ora una parte dell’esplorazione è stata uccisa, perché ora sia i dialoghi spassosi che quelli chiave non sono da scoprire con fatica, ma lo si fa totalmente per caso camminando… È evidente che stavolta, quelli che nel team di sviluppo sono soliti dare voce ai personaggi circa inutili, si sono divertiti parecchio, e forse questa è l’unica cosa che a Game Freak ancora si salva (nel contesto di Pokémon, si intende, perché tolto quello per qualche motivo i giochi li sanno fare apparentemente bene). 😤
La varietà è grande e vale la pena guardare tutto il video — mi secca solo che sia in inglese, perché scommetto che in italiano tutte le cose sono solo più divertenti… magari farò un video o un articolo io con la stessa premessa, chi lo sa — ma bene o male tutto si può classificare in delle precise categorie: vecchi che vivono crisi di terza età, membri della forza lavoro o gente non meglio specificata che parla di cose e problemi spaventosamente reali, e allenatori che nelle loro giornate hanno idee o modi di agire decisamente bizzarri, e in certi casi preoccupanti. A tratti le cose sembrano pensieri intrusivi usciti direttamente dalle teste degli sviluppatori, ed altre volte frasi uscite direttamente da biscotti della fortuna, quindi che dire. 📜
Comunque sia, un filo rosso di pazzia lega tutte queste persone, e beh… nei commenti c’è chi dice che forse è colpa della deprivazione del sonno, che in effetti ha senso: da un lato, per chi partecipa alla Royale Z-A, e passa la notte a fare lotte… e, dall’altro, chi semplicemente subisce l’infinito inquinamento acustico che dalle zone lotta si diffonderà fuori (anche se, in realtà, ogni notte la posizione cambia, quindi la possibilità di dormire ogni tanto la avrebbero… vabbé). Però, caspiterina, queste abilità di scrittura sono sprecate per un RPG a mondo statico come Pokémon… sarebbe invece bellissimo avere dialoghi di questo tenore in un gioco di simulazione a conversazione dinamica come Animal Crossing… (Immaginiamo a questo punto se Game Freak e Nintendo si scambiassero i dipendenti…) 🤖
Gli NPC in questo gioco faranno piangere, ma le nuove lotte dinamiche sono bellissime, e io non me lo aspettavo. Scopri precisamente tutta l’epicità nel nuovo articolo stufocttato: Le sfavillanti lotte in tempo reale di Leggende Pokémon: Z-A. (Messaggio promocttionale, abbiate pazienza.)

Climate-Warming Methane Emissions from the World’s Biggest Livestock Companies Are Bigger Than From Major Oil and Gas Companies
Ahead of the United Nations climate talks in Brazil, advocacy groups are pushing for companies and governments to set meaningful emissions targets to lower emissions from livestock.The world’s biggest meat and dairy companies are responsible for emitting more climate-warming methane than all of the countries in the European Union and United Kingdom combined, according to a new assessment published Monday.
They looked at 45 major livestock and dairy companies, finding that they generated about 1 billion tons of greenhouse gas emissions in 2023—roughly the same amount as reported for Saudi Arabia, the world’s second largest oil producer.

Because oil and gas don't emit methane into the atmosphere if they can help it. It's a sellable product to them.
I do agree that agriculture methane emissions should be dealt with, but the headline is misleading.
I don't think it's a misleading title because leaks are considered emissions.
The leaks from oil & gas are huge to begin with, and some of them are even called super-emitting methane leaks. From another article:
About 40% of human-caused methane emissions come from leaks from fossil fuel exploration, production and transportation. These rose by almost 50% between 2000 and 2019. Another 40% comes from agriculture(...) All are forecast to rise.
Not only that these leaks and are not visible to the naked eye, so
the big challenge is knowing exactly how much methane is being emitted, where it is being emitted and for how long it has been emitted. [source UN environment program]
Revealed: 1,000 super-emitting methane leaks risk triggering climate tipping points

‘Chiraq Team 2’: Oak Park attorney catches glimpse of federal agents’ group chat during arrest • The TRiiBE
Attorney Scott Sakiyama stood in front of reporters in Chicago’s Dirksen Federal Courthouse on Oct. 10. Paul Ivery, a 26-year-old intellectually disabled Black man and Oak Park local, was leaving the courthouse after enduring nearly two weeks of criminal proceedings. The government claimed Ivery assaulted a Border Patrol agent at a protest at the suburban Broadview ICE facility on Sept. 27, only to drop the case two weeks later. Sakiyama, a fellow Oak Park resident, didn’t represent Ivery in court but offered to act as a spokesperson for his family.“If the case had gone forward, it probably would have lasted for months, and so it’s just such a relief to have it over now,” Sakiyama told reporters on Oct.10.
Ten days later, Sakiyama ended up in the back of a vehicle used by federal immigration agents himself. The masked agents detained him at gunpoint on the morning of Oct. 20 and brought him to the same Broadview ICE facility. He sat in the vehicle with agents for about a half hour outside the facility before another agent gave him a citation for impeding a federal officer.
They then returned him to his own car and wished him a good day, he said.

What's Your "Digital Comfort Food"?
We spend so much time online, but how much of it genuinely feeds us?
We all have our go-to websites, apps, or online rituals that feel like a warm blanket. Maybe it's a specific niche forum, a calming puzzle game, a curated music playlist, or a blog you've read for a decade.
I'm curious: What's your digital comfort food? What's that one corner of the internet you retreat to that always leaves you feeling a little bit better, calmer, or more inspired?
For me, it's organizing my digital spaces. There's something deeply satisfying about decluttering my phone's home screen and customizing my most-used apps to be as minimal and efficient as possible. It makes the digital world feel a little more like my world. This drive for a personalized experience even extends to using tools that offer more control, like wa gb apk for a cleaner, more tailored messaging setup.
