BBC: Israeli forces in Gaza shot at least 100 Palestinian children in head or chest
A BBC investigation into Israeli forces' attacks on Palestinian children has revealed shocking details on the targeting of minors in Gaza.
Of the 168 cases the BBC compiled of Palestinian children shot in Gaza, 95 were shot either in the head or chest.
Out of the 95 cases, over two-thirds were under the age of 12.

I've had good experience with smollm2:135m. The test case I used was determining why an HTTP request from one system was not received by another system. In total, there are 10 DB tables it must examine not only for logging but for configuration to understand if/how the request should be processed or blocked. Some of those were mapping tables designed such that table B must be used to join table A to table C, table D must be used to join table C to table E. Therefore I have a path to traverse a complete configuration set (table A <-> table E).
I had to describe each field being pulled (~150 fields total), but it was able to determine the correct reason for the request failure.
The only issue I've had was a separate incident using a different LLM when I tried to use AI to generate golang template code for a database library I was wanting to use.
It didn't use it and recommended a different library.
When instructed that it must use this specific library, it refused (politely).
That caught me off-guard. I shouldn't have to create a scenario where the AI goes to jail if it fails to use something.
I should just have to provide the instruction and, if that instruction is reasonable, await output.
Israeli luxury hotel project partnering with Leonardo DiCaprio gains approval
A luxury hotel project spearheaded by Israeli real-estate firm Hagag Group, in partnership with Hollywood star Leonardo DiCaprio, received final construction approval for the Herzliya Marina on Sunday.
Led by Hagag Marina Herzliya Ltd., a subsidiary of the Hagag Group, the project will feature approximately 365 hotel rooms across two buildings, with a central swimming pool.
The complex will also include a conference center, luxury restaurant and commercial spaces, designed by the architectural firm Ranni Ziss Architects. A standout feature is a yacht marina with direct access to the hotel.

As someone with a career in manufacturing who lived in the rust belt most of my life: I knew I was fucked financially each time Trump won, even without the needing to move to avoid hostile laws. What American manufacturing needs is affordable housing, reasonable trade, subsidies to start, and to accept that thr future of american manufacturing is high tech manufacturing that relies on our high numbers of engineers and our skilled tradespeople. Well paid, unskilled manufacturing jobs aren't coming back, but sensible forward thinking policies can ensure we have plenty of jobs designing, building, operating, and maintaining advanced and modern manufacturing systems.
Also the fact that our currency is highly valued isnt the best strategy for manufacturing, but it's an excellent strategy for other industries like finance and provides us a powerful ability to purchase foreign goods.

Police in German state to use controversial software by Palantir | dpa international
cross-posted from: lemmy.zip/post/45358033
Police in the south-western German state of Baden-Württemberg are to be allowed to use the analysis software from US firm Palantir, which is controversial among data protection advocatesThe software was specifically developed for security agencies and is used by intelligence services, the military and police.
Palantir was founded in 2003 in the United States, notably by tech billionaire Peter Thiel. He is known for his libertarian and conservative positions, his closeness to US President Donald Trump and his criticism of liberal democracies.

I guess they’d argue that none of those pesky little data protection laws apply to competent authorities like the police and they’re probably justifying it with the criminal prosecution clause.
Great.
I stand with Israel
Whether or not an ethnostate is good depends on the ethnicity of the people of the ethnostate.
(/s, it is POV of a racist)
like this
The American civil war was about states rights (states right to white supremacy)
Our new government['s]...foundations are laid, its cornerstone rests upon the great truth, that the negro is not equal to the white man; that slavery—subordination to the superior race—is his natural and normal condition. This, our new government, is the first, in the history of the world, based upon this great physical, philosophical, and moral truth.
States rights people hate it when pointing out slavery was enshrined in the state constitutions as a requirement for being part of the confederacy.
Or when showing the south was pushing the north to ignore their states rights by forcing them to only follow southern slavery laws
this is rather dumb considering Israel is more ethnically diverse than any of it's neighbors
73.2% (about 7,208,000 people) are Jews, including about 503,000 living outside the self-defined borders of the State of Israel in the West Bank
21.1% (around 2,080,000 people) are Israeli citizens classified as Arab, some identifying as Palestinian, and including Druze, Circassians, all other Muslims, Christian Arabs, Armenians (which Israel considers "Arab")
[2] An additional 5.7% (roughly 554,000 people) are classified as "others". This diverse group comprises those with Jewish ancestry but not recognized as Jewish by religious law, non-Jewish family members of Jewish immigrants, Christians other than Arabs and Armenians, and residents without a distinct ethnic or religious categorization.[2][1]
In a 2012 ruling by the Supreme Court on the issue, some of the judges on the panel discussed demography, and were inclined to accept that demography is a legitimate consideration in devising family reunification policies that violate the right to family life.Those in favor of the law say the law not only limits the possibility of the entrance of terrorists into Israel, but, as Ze'ev Boim asserts, allows Israel "to maintain the state's democratic nature, but also its Jewish nature" (i. e., its Jewish demographic majority).
Ethnically diverse? Motherfucker, they're all kinds of WHITE EUROPEANS. It occupies Palestine with that in mind, using religion to hide behind it and justify it.
The other 30 percent were either kidnapped children from various operations (with the help of the West) that grew up to be dogs of the Euroanglo-zionazis and become Zionazis themselves or straight up opportunist compradors from all around the world. Oh and to top it off, they sterilize them no matter how much they try to be a good dog, because they're not white enough.
That's not diversity, that's a settler-colonial ethnostate playing population control, trying to get just enough brown to justify their occupation to the public, but not too much to maintain Pan-Europa whiteness.
considering Israel is more ethnically diverse
Apartheid South Africa was ethnically diverse...... Still an ethno-state.
Ethno-states aren't defined as lacking diversity, they are defined by an ethnic creating and maintaining a dominant hierarchy of that diversity.
It's because he's attempting to utilize the fact that America was and potentially still is an ethno-state to lessen the culpability of the Israeli ethno-state.
While modern America uses systemic racism to establish an ethnic hierarchy, unlike Israel it doesn't expressly by law prohibit the movement or upward mobility of different ethnicities. Even if it did, that fact would not lessen the culpability of another state doing the same.
Context and nuance is important.
it started inthe 70's and passed all the ratification hurdles in 2020; that's how long people have been trying to push for it and proves how little things change within the american system.
in typical democrat fashion, biden made much ado about ratifying it, but without supporting it against the technical hangups so that it would die on its own and doing so paved the way for project 2025.
the democrats kept control of the house for the entirety of biden's tenure as president while they had control of the senate for half of it and the aca fell apart anyways despite the democrats having a majority .... again.
no one expects the republicans to follow through on welfare programs, so it's silly to hold them to account on it on something like the equal rights amendment; the democrats do claim to care and that's why we expect progress from them.
maybe your expectations for Republicans are too low

How can ufw do me like that?
EDIT: Thanks for the help guys!
Something strange happened just now, im trying to figure out how exactly did it happen. On my server I was suddely able to bypass my VPN! I looked around what did happened and found that my VPN service had sent me an email that my subscription expired. What is strange is that I have ufw rules like
To Action From
[VPN server] ALLOW OUT Anywhere
Anywhere ALLOW OUT Anywhere on tun0So it should be not allowed to access the internet outside of tun0. Why exactly did it happen? Does the VPN service change iptables or something? Any ideas? I was able to ping, wget, even surf on w3m. The thing is that when I rebooted the server, nothing could connect outside the tunnel, as it should be. Here is the whole ufw table.
Status: active
Logging: on (low)
Default: deny (incoming), deny (outgoing), disabled (routed)
New profiles: skip
To Action From
-- ------ ----
22/tcp ALLOW IN 192.168.1.0/24
53 ALLOW IN 192.168.1.0/24
80 ALLOW IN 192.168.1.0/24
9091 ALLOW IN 192.168.1.0/24 # Transmission
2049 ALLOW IN 192.168.1.0/24 # nfs
[VPN server] ALLOW OUT Anywhere
Anywhere ALLOW OUT Anywhere on tun0
192.168.2.77 22 ALLOW OUT Anywhere

Lemmy Development Update July 2025
Work on the backend changes for 1.0 is mostly finished now. What's missing is optimizing the migrations as they currently take about 9 hours for lemmy.ml. Now we are starting to work on updating lemmy-ui for the API changes and new features.
In the last days we did a big cleanup of the lemmy-ui issue tracker, closing 450 mostly outdated issues. Many of these were over a year old describing problems that have long been fixed. From 570 issues only 120 remain. Most of these are very minor, changing a single UI element here or there. It should be possible to implement 90% of them within a month or two.

An open source project the size of Lemmy needs constant work to manage the project, implement new features and fix bugs. Dessalines and Nutomic work full-time on these tasks and more. As there is no advertising or tracking, all of our work is funded through donations. Even so there is barely enough time in the day, and no time for a second job. The only available option are user donations. To keep it viable donations need to reach a minimum of 5000€ per month, resulting in a modest salary of 2500€ per developer. If that goal is reached we can stop worrying about money, and fully focus on improving the software for the benefit of all users and instances. We especially rely on recurring donations to secure the long-term development and make Lemmy the best it can be.

We Asked 100+ AI Models to Write Code. The Results: AI-generated Code That Works, But Isn’t Safe
Insights from 2025 GenAI Code Security Report
How secure is code generated by AI? We asked 100+ AI models to write code. Here’s key findings from the 2025 GenAI Code Security Report.Veracode
Using LLMs does not obviate the need for the human user to understand what the code is doing. I've also found that, as with any tool, it takes time to actually learn to use LLMs effectively.
In particular, I find it's really important to understand the problem being solved, and then come up with the solution yourself. One approach I’ve found to be effective is to stub out the functions myself, and have the agent fill in the blanks for me. This helps focus the LLM and prevent it from going off into the weeds.
Another trick I find handy is to ask the agent to first write a plan for the solution. Then I can review the plan and tell the agent to adjust it as needed before implementing. Agents are also pretty good at writing tests, and tests are much easier to evaluate for correctness because good tests are just independent functions that do one thing and don’t have a deep call stack. My current approach is to get the LLM to write the plan, add tests, and then focus on making sure I understand the tests and that they pass. At that point I have a fairly high degree of confidence that the code is indeed doing what’s needed. The tests act as a contract for the agent to fill and as a specification for the defined functionality.
I suspect that programming languages might start shifting in the direction of contracts in general. I can see stuff like this becoming the norm, where you specify the signature for the function, and you could also specify parameters like computational complexity and memory usage. The agent could then try to figure out how to fill the contract you’ve defined. It would be akin to genetic algorithm approach where the agent could converge on a solution over time. If that’s the direction things will be moving in, then current skills could be akin to being able to write assembly by hand. Useful in some niche situations, but not necessary vast majority of the time.
Finally, it’s very helpful to structure things using small components components that can be tested independently and composed together to build bigger things. As long as the component functions in the intended way, I don’t necessarily care about the quality of the code internally. I can treat them as black boxes as long as they’re doing what’s expected at the surface level. This is already the approach we take with libraries as we don’t audit every line of code in a library we include in a project. We just look at its surface level API provided.
Incidentally, I’m noticing that functional style seems to work really well here. Having an assembly line of pure functions naturally breaks up a problem into small building blocks that you can reason about in isolation. It’s kind of like putting Lego blocks together. The advantage over stuff like microservies here is that you don’t have to deal with the complexity of orchestration and communication between the services.

‘Immense’ pro-Palestine march to cross Sydney Harbour Bridge as police prepare for five-hour shutdown
cross-posted from: aussie.zone/post/23257570
Pro-Palestine protesters will be legally protected while marching across the Sydney Harbour Bridge on Sunday after a New South Wales supreme court decision.The bridge is expected to be closed for about five hours, from 11.30am, and additional police are being mobilised to observe a march that could include up to 50,000 people.
In her judgment, Justice Belinda Rigg said “the march at this location is motivated by the belief that the horror and urgency of the situation in Gaza demands an urgent and extraordinary response from the people of the world”.
“The evidence indicates there is significant support for the march.”
50,000 seems a bit on the small side for a Sydney Harbour Bridge march. Hopefully there will be many many more than that.

Hamas Wants Gaza to Starve [Please first read, then comment]
By Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib
E: Please read the article before commenting.
Hamas Wants Gaza to Starve
Starvation only helps Hamas end the war in a way that advances its aims.Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib (The Atlantic)
The article says that Hamas wants Israel to starve Gazans, it doesn't say that Israel doesn't starve Gazans.
It literally says Israel uses hunger as weapon (against Hamas and against –or at least not caring about– civilians): "Hamas has benefited from Israel’s decision to use food as a lever against the terror group, because the catastrophic conditions for civilians have generated an international outcry, which is worsening Israel’s global standing and forcing it to reverse course."
E: You partly approve the article yourself and I'm aware of the fact it's Israel committing the genocide.
Not I nor the article have said that Israel isn't committing genocide. The only thing said is that Hamas profits by it and that Gazans are furious about looters and the Hamas. I don't understand why so many people downvote this, claim I would be paid, claim I would deny the genocide or write 6 comments where 1 would be enough, if not you want to deny Hamas is a terrorist organization which only cares about its own survival.
So why did Hamas agree to a ceasefire in March which Israel broke?
Why is Hamas bending over to accept ceasefire conditions? You are spreading Zionist blood libel and genocide propaganda.
