Economy of Genocide: UN Report Links Western Firms to Israeli War Crimes
A powerful new report submitted to the UN Human Rights Council by Francesca Albanese, the Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territories occupied since 1967, is drawing sharp condemnation — not only from Israel but also from the United States.Titled ‘From Economy of Occupation to Economy of Genocide’, the report delivers a searing indictment of corporate involvement in Israel’s settler-colonial enterprise and its ongoing genocidal war on Gaza, accusing private and state-linked companies of enabling apartheid, war crimes, and genocide.

DiffuCoder: Understanding And Improving Masked Diffusion Models For Code Generation
This paper introduces DiffuCoder, a 7B-scale open-source masked diffusion large language model (dLLM) specifically designed for code generation.The research provides insights into how dLLMs generate content, distinguishing their decoding behavior from that of autoregressive (AR) models. Unlike AR models, dLLMs can intrinsically adjust their generation causality and increasing sampling temperature diversifies not just token choices but also their generation order, creating a rich search space for reinforcement learning (RL).
This flexibility allows dLLMs to be more non-autoregressive and generate tokens in a less sequential, more "human-like" code writing manner.
To leverage this diversity and improve performance, the paper proposes coupled-GRPO RL algorithm. This method utilizes a coupled-sampling scheme that constructs complementary mask noise during training to reduce the variance of token log-likelihood estimates while maintaining training efficiency.
Experimentally, coupled-GRPO significantly boosts DiffuCoder's performance on code generation benchmarks, notably improving EvalPlus scores by 4.4% with training on only 21K samples. The research also shows that coupled-GRPO trained models experience a smaller performance drop when decoding steps are halved (resulting in a 2x speedup), indicating increased parallelism and reduced reliance on AR bias during decoding.

“IMPARO il CINESE in 30 GIORNI” (JumboDrillo è meglio di noi…)
Sembra strano, e non pensavo si sarebbe mai potuto dire (e per giunta in questa economia…?), ma probabilmente a proposito dell’imparare le lingue c’è qualcosa di buono che si può prendere persino da quel fallito di JumboDrillo…! (Che chiamo così solo perché è la singola proprietà attorno alla quale tutto il suo canale è sviluppato, non perché penso sia un fallito… certamente io sono più fallita di lui, insomma, sia ben chiaro.)youtube.com/watch?v=v-4ntXPLOF…
Lui da assoluto pazzo, ma indubbiamente più bravo di noi, ha deciso di imparare il cinese in 30 giorni… e per soli 30 giorni (e mi chiedo se poi abbia continuato… ma temo si sia fermato) non sembra essere andato per niente male. Il suo motivo certamente è poco condivisibile… voleva praticamente solo rimorchiare in discoteca… però bisogna apprezzare l’impegno. Purtroppo, per quanto il metodo poi sia stato relativamente efficace, c’è anche da piangere, perché non è per tutti: a parte Duolingo, qualche canale YouTube apposito, e il fatto che nel mentre di tutto ha preso tanti appunti vari (“tra l’altro con i colori come le ragazze“), una parte della storia si è sviluppata con lui che si è messo un po’ a frequentare Chinatown e aveva 2 coetanei cinesi con cui studiare… e sono questi ultimi dettagli il problema, insomma. Almeno nell’imparare qualcosa che non sia il cinese, perché il quartiere strambo non esiste per altre nazionalità, e quindi nemmeno le persone. Vabbè, pace, gli altri elementi sono comunque buoni per sfuggire ad una morsa troppo totalizzante del gufo.

Issues with stickies
In my community !action_movies@piefed.social , I've made two posts sticky (the "Welcome" post and the "Free, legal movies" post) using my Piefed mod account, but:
- viewing in PieFed, neither post is at the top. (They do have inverted angle brackets around the title.)
- viewing in Lemmy, The "Free, legal movies" post is sticky (at top, with pushpin icon) but the "Welcome" post isn't.
How do I get them both displayed at the top in both PieFed and Lemmy? Or is this a bug?
On piefed
They both appear stickied just fine to me. Something that is different with sticky posts on piefed is that if you sort by New, then the sticky posts are no longer at the top of the page. That is different than how lemmy does it. This has led to confusion in the past, and even has a codeberg issue about it.
On lemmy
I am guessing that federation had not yet been established between that lemmy instance when you created and stickied that initial welcome post. I just tried an experiment now where I subscribed to your community from a test lemmy instance I have and forced federation of one of the sticky posts, and it didn't come over stickied. So, there might be some weirdness there.
What you can do to try to resolve this is to unsticky it and then resticky it. That should send out the correct actions via activitypub so that the other instances know that the post should be stickied. To be on the safer side, give it a minute or two between those two actions so that you are sure the first action had been sent out fully.
Sticky post on PieFed aren't listed on the top of its community.
Cf pictures : The sticked post, with the blue title, stay at the middle of the community page. It doesn't move to the top of its community.Codeberg.org
Thanks for the info.
- I unstickied, re-stickied and waited a couple of minutes. Both are now stickies that appear at the top in Lemmy, no matter what the sorting order.
- Sorting order: when I first started with Lemmy, I got sick of seeing the same posts again and again and again. I tried different sorting orders, and different settings for viewed posts, none of which satisfied all my wishes, until I eventually gave up on everything except "New", which is now how I look at all content all the time.
So I guess this means in Piefed I'm always missing out on seeing stickies in all communities, not just the one I mod. :/
Wait, so what is that issue? If you bold something in two different places it gets messed up?
Edit: it sure does...I will take a look at that when I look at formatting comment previews correctly.
I think it might also happen when you have italics, or bold, immediately followed by punctuation.
Or is that only when the original post is done on Lemmy and then viewed on PieFed? I'll have to try to find an example.
- piefed.social/post/997768
Just following up on this that stickied posts should now show up at the top of communities even if you sort by New. Additionally, the double bold problem should be solved now without breaking anything else. Feel free to reach out in this community or on codeberg with issues if they come up.
PS - post and comment previews should show better formatting as well, including blockquotes and code blocks.
