Mamdani Walks Back Prior Call To Boycott Cornell Tech

New York City Mayoral elect Zohran Mamdani previously called for the boycott of Cornell Tech over its public-private partnership with Technion — Israel Institute of Technology not long after he won a seat in the New York State Assembly in 2020.

“If you were to look at the lens of [the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement] and how it applies here in New York City, you would say that Cornell-Technion is something you would be talking about,” Mamdani reportedly said on the podcast, according the The New York Post.

As Mayor-elect, Mamdani was asked by the Roosevelt Islander at a press conference whether he “currently support[s] a boycott of Cornell Tech [or if] has he ever supported a boycott [of Cornell Tech].” While Mamdani did not explicitly say he would no longer boycott Cornell Tech, he did not think the partnership was out of compliance with international law.

“Wherever the [Eric] Adams administration and previous administrations have taken us out of compliance with international law, we’ll return the city back into that compliance,” Mamdani said. Upon further questioning from the reporter, Mamdani elaborated that he does not “think that [Cornell Tech] applies to what the Adam’s administration’s done,” appearing to say that he does not support a boycott of Cornell Tech

When asked if Cornell has communicated with Mamdani or if they plan to engage with the Mamdani administration, a University spokesperson did not respond to the question. Instead, the spokesperson wrote that “the enormous success of this academic collaboration [between Cornell University and Technion – Israel Institute of Technology] proves that universities can be powerful economic engines as well and preserve New York City’s status as a global technology leader.”

The spokesperson also did not directly respond to questions about whether Cornell Tech is directly involved with the IDF, given its partnership with Technion — Israel Institute of Technology, which is tied to the organization via the Advanced Defense Research Institute and the Center for Security Science & Technology.

TIL Howling Mad Murdock from the A-Team (1983) is also Lt. Barclay from Star Trek: TNG

Actor: Dwight Schultz

I was watching the 2010 version of the A-Team (great movie imo), and I wanted to know what cameos there were (because I suck at recognizing actors). Lo and behold, to my delight, the cross-over of all cross-overs: Star Trek and A-Team.

~I love it when a plan comes together.~

Edit: This just keeps getting better!!!! 53:58 on Netflix.

The (successful) end of the kernel Rust experiment

The topic of the Rust experiment was just discussed at the annual Maintainers Summit. The consensus among the assembled developers is that Rust in the kernel is no longer experimental — it is now a core part of the kernel and is here to stay. So the "experimental" tag will be coming off. Congratulations are in order for all of the Rust for Linux team.

No, Rust is to make you feel like you haven't programmed seriously in 20 years when you first pick it up, even though you are actively doing it.

Before the angry rust "mob" comes to get me: this is a joke. I tried Rust out of genuine curiosity, cobbled together a silly little thing, and quite liked it. The borrow checker made me feel like a total beginner again, in some aspects, and it was great to get that feeling again.

Ultimately it does not fit my needs, but there are a few features I am pretty envious of. I can totally see why it's getting such a following, and I hope it keeps growing.

Enjoy! I don't know what you used to seriously program on but I am willing to bet that the ownership paradigm that it enforces is going to feel at least moderately new to you, unless you forced yourself to code that way anyways.

Plus, as long as you're doing silly little home projects, the compiler errors are the absolute best I've ever seen. Literally just learn basic syntax, try it out, and when it does not compile, the compiler not only tells you why but also what it thinks you're trying to do and how to fix.

Absolute gem of a learning tool.

Absolutely, I am more used to program closer to the iron mostly C. My favorite was 68000 Assembly, python is nice, but I prefer compiled languages for efficiency. Although that efficiency isn't relevant for basic tasks anymore.

The compiler error messages sound extremely cool. 👍

Ah, a fellow C coder. Never did do assembly with chips older than x86_64 basically. The only old school stuff I touched was writing an interpreter for the CHIP-8. I tried writing some CHIP-8 too, but coming from more recent paradigms, it seemed quite unwieldy to me.

I like python for quick and dirty stuff, I don't like python for being interpreted and it being not obvious what happens under the hood, memory wise, at a glance.

Seeing as you do C I'll say this. The one thing I really did not enjoy, subjectively, with Rust, is that writing "C-style loops" comes with a performance penalty because there are bound checks happening, so the idiomatic version of a loop in Rust usually involves iterators and function composition.

I am stupid. C-loops are easy for me to understand. More sophisticated stuff is hard for my little brain. I'd rather be trusted with my memory access, and be reminded of my stupidity when comes the inevitable segfault. Keeps you humble.

What? You need to make a function to make a loop? That can't be right???

Absolutely, the way C loops work is perfect. I'm not so fond of the syntax, but at least it's logical in how it works.

What? You need to make a function to make a loop? That can't be right???

Ah no, there is a misunderstanding. You can write C-loops, of course, they just could involve more work under the hood because in order to enforce memory safety, there needs to be some form of bounds checking that does not happen in C. Caveat: I don't know whether that's always true, and what the subtleties are. Maybe I'm wrong about that even, but what is true is that what I am about to say, you will encounter in Rust codebases.

By function composition I meant in the mathematical sense. So, this example explains the gist of it. You may need to throw in a lambda function in there to actually do the job, yeah. I don't know what the compiler actually reduces that to though.

It's just the more functional approach that you can also see with Haskell for example. I find it harder to parse, but that may be lack of training rather than intrinsic difficult.

The one thing I really did not enjoy, subjectively, with Rust, is that writing "C-style loops" comes with a performance penalty because there are bound checks happening, so the idiomatic version of a loop in Rust usually involves iterators and function composition.

IIRC you can speed up such checks by putting an assertion in front that checks for the largest index - this will make repeated checks for smaller indices unnecessary. Also, bound checks are often not even visible on modern CPUs because speculative execution, branch prediction, and out-of-order execution. The CPU just assumes that the checks will succeed, and works on the next step.

in reply to HaraldvonBlauzahn • 1 settimana fa • •

I had no idea about the assertion! Thanks.

Yes, this is plain wrong or often unimportant on modern architecture, you're right. I, certainly mistakenly, thought this was one of the reasons for the idiomatic version involving function composition, which is the thing I, subjectively, don't enjoy as much.

I stand corrected.

The function composition style comes from functional programming and Rust's OCaml heritage. It can make it easier to reason about invriants and possible sets of values of the result of a computation step.

Rust transforms these to the same or a close equivalent of hand-written loops.

Similar methods are used in specialized, high-performance C++ libraries such as blitz++ and Eigen. But if you mess up bounds, you will get UB with them.

in reply to TriangleSpecialist

HaraldvonBlauzahn

in reply to TriangleSpecialist • 1 settimana fa • •

I like Python for quick and dirty stuff

There is one more little secret that not everyone knows:

You do not need lifetime annotations and full borrow checking if you do not care to press out the last drop of performance out of the CPU, or if you just draft experimental code.

In fact, you can very much program in a style that is similar to python:

just pass function arguments as references, or make a copy (if you need to modify them)
just return copies of values you want to return.

This makes your code less efficient, yes. But, it avoids to deal with the borrow checker before you really need it, because the copied values get an own life time. It will still be much faster than Python.

This approach would not work for heavily concurrent, multi-threaded code. But not everyone needs Rust for that. There are other quality-of-life factors which make Rust interesting to use.

... and of course it can't beat Python for ease of use. But it is in a good place between Python and C++. A bit more difficult than Java, yes. But when you need to call into such code from Python, it is far easier than Java.

Enjoy! I don't know what you used to seriously program on but I am willing to bet that the ownership paradigm that it enforces is going to feel at least moderately new to you, unless you forced yourself to code that way anyways.

Thinking about ownership is the right way e.g. for C++ as well, so if one has coded professionally in larger systems, it should not be too alien.

One still needs to learn life time annotations. So, assuming that you know, for example, C++, it is an a bit larger hurdle than picking up Java or Go, but it is worth the time.

In many aspects, Rust is far more productive and also more beginner-friendly than C++:

far better compiler error messages
a superb and easy-to-use packaging system
Unicode support
support for unit testing right in the language
strong support for a side-effect-free or "functional programming" style which is great for testing and tasks like data analysis or parsing
better modularization
avoids implementation inheritance, and the trait system is a bit different but superb
no undefined behavior (in safe Rust) which means nothing less than that the code does what it says - and this is extremely useful in larger projects
great support for safe concurrency
the language and library frees one to think about interfaces and algorithms which is where the big wins for performance are hidden (and IMO one of the key factors for the astounding success of Python).

I could go on... but I need to do other stuff

Thanks for the detailed answer. Preaching to the choir.

The existence of the concept of ownership in languages like C++ is why I threw "moderately" in there. I agree depending on what you take that to mean, it may or may not do some heavy lifting.

For the rest, I'd divide it into hard facts (compiler messages are absolutely undeniable, in any circumstance) and things that can definitely be true depending on your personal use cases. I'm with you on this: for the vast vast majority of tasks commonly understood as software engineering, memory safety is a concern, and a lot, if not all, of your points, are valid.

I must humbly insist that it does not fit my needs, in the sense that memory safety is of no concern to me, and that the restrictions that a compiler-enforced approach imposes make me less productive, and, subjectively, also less enjoyable because causing more friction.

That being said, you may also not consider what I'm currently doing to be software engineering, and that's totally fine. Then we'd agree entirely.

EDIT: also, there are very few languages less productive and beginner-friendly than C++ in my opinion. The proverbial bar is in hell. But you are talking to an unreasonable C++ hater.

I am a professional C++ developer with 20 years of experience and have worked in about eight other languages professionally, while learning and using a dozen more in hobby projects.

I agree with you here. The only areas where specifics are worse are package management in Python, and maintainability of large SIMULINK models.

That's the sort of indictment of C++ I like to hear. It's not just me then. I sometimes feel like I'm taking crazy pills with some colleagues who are super enthusiastic about it still.

But again, I'm stupid, I know I'm stupid, and C++ has way too many features and convoluted behaviours which are hard for me to remember and reason about. It often feels like it makes me think more about the language problems than the actual problem I'm supposed to work on. It may say more about me than the language, but I do feel validated with comments like this.

Generally no. As soon as a class hierarchy becomes moderately complex, implementation inheritance makes code very hard to maintain, because you need to read the whole stack of classes to see what a single change will actually do.

Lots of "modern" languages don't interop terribly well with other languages, because they need a runtime environment to be executed.
So, if you want to call a Python function from Java, you need to start a Python runtime and somehow pass the arguments and the result back and forth (e.g. via CLI or network communication).

C, C++, Rust and a few other languages don't need a runtime environment, because they get compiled down to machine code directly.
As such, you can call functions written in them directly, from virtually any programming language. You just need to agree how the data is laid out in memory. Well, and the general agreement for that memory layout is the C ABI. Basically, C has stayed the same for long enough that everyone just uses its native memory layout for interoperability.

And yeah, the Rust designers weren't dumb, so they made sure that Rust can also use this C ABI pretty seamlessly. As such, you can call Rust-functions from C and C-functions from Rust, with just a bit of boilerplate in between.
This has also been battle-tested quite well already, as Mozilla used this to rewrite larger chunks of Firefox, where you have C++ using its C capabilities to talk to Rust and vice versa.

No. The Rust code in the kernel is GPLv2 just like the rest of the kernel. The licence of the compiler has nothing to do with that, that's nonsense Rust haters make up.

You can argue against independent projects like the Rust coreutils not using a copyleft license, but that has nothing to do with Rust or the kernel. There are independent C projects without non-copyleft licenses too.

Ah thank you. You likely guessed the reason for the question.

Many popular projects written in Rust, including the UUtils core utils rewrite, are MIT licensed as Rust is. There have been people that purposely confuse things by saying that “the Rust community” is undermining the GPL. I can see how that may lead somebody to believe that there is some kind of inherent licence problem with code written in Rust.

Code written in Rust can of course be licensed however you want from AGPL to fully proprietary.

I personally perceive a shift in license popularity towards more permissive licenses at least with the “younger generation”. The fact that so many Rust projects are permissively licensed is just a consequence of those kinds of licenses being more popular with the kinds of “modern” programmers that would choose Rust as a language to begin with. Those programmers would choose the same licenses even they used the GCC toolchain. But the “modern” languages they have to choose from are things like Rust, Swift, Zig, Go, or Gleam (all permissively licensed ). Python and TypeScript are also still trendy (also permissively licensed).

Looking at that list, it is pretty silly to focus on Rust’s license. Most of the popular programming languages released over the past 20 years are permissively licensed.

I have never heard the licensing of Rust being raised as a concern for the Linux kernel.

As Charles Babbage would say, “I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question.”

The distro I use builds the entire Linux kernel with Clang which uses the same license as Rust. Linux is bound by the same modified GPL license regardless of what compiler I use to build it.

The compiler has no impact on the license applied to the code you build with that compiler. You can use closed source tools to build open source software and vice versa.

And, of course, the Rust license is totally open source as it is offered as both MIT and Apache. Apache 2.0 even provides patent guarantees which can matter for something like a compiler.

If you prefer to use GPL tools yourself, you may want to keep an eye on gccrs.

rust-gcc.github.io/

A legitimate concern about Rust may be that LLVM (Rust) supports a different list of hardware than GCC does. The gccrs project addresses that.

Zarah Sultana: Lammy claim he did not know about Palestine Action hunger strikers is a ‘lie’

cross-posted from: lemmy.ml/post/40113504

Published date: 9 Dec 2025 16:18 GMT

In footage posted on Instagram, Lammy is seen telling campaigners and the strikers’ families that he did “not know anything” about the prisoners’ cases.
“I’ve written to David Lammy, so the fact he’s saying he doesn’t know about this is a lie,” Sultana told Middle East Eye.
In the video, Shahmina Alam, the sister of one of the strikers, confronted Lammy, saying that he and the Ministry of Justice had failed to respond to a letter alerting them of the planned strike and outlining the participants' demands.

Two US fighter jets circle Gulf of Venezuela in escalation of hostilities

Two US fighter jets circled the Gulf of Venezuela on Tuesday, in what appeared to be an escalation of the Trump administration’s ongoing hostilities toward the South American country and its leftist leader, Nicolás Maduro.
Venezuelans and South American media followed the flights in real time using websites like FlightRadar24, which showed a pair of F/A-18 Super Hornets flying together into the narrow Gulf of Venezuela for about 40 minutes. The jets flew just north of Maracaibo, Venezuela’s most populous city.

[Pluribus Spoilers] A distressing thought about Koumba and the hive...

The hive exist, or desire to please the survivors. However they want. Koumba has used this more than anyone else to his own advantage to live the life of a decadent, hedonistic and shallow playboy - roleplaying as James Bond and surrounding himself and having sex with women. Now, to me - this is very much - at the minimum - taking advantage of them. The women he's having sexual relations with are not who they were, and it is unlikely - even if the hive came to him and suggested it (as I suspect they did) - that the women before the joining would be remotely interested in doing this. They are not them. Who they were has been lobotomised, malformed and disappeared into the hive - segmented up into billions of bodies.

I've seen some people (not here, but elsewhere) suggest that this behaviour is okay because the hive is consenting. The women he's picking show enthusiastic and active consent. This to me is disgraceful, not just in the context of that - but also what could be the case if Koumba had different, darker interests.

Now the show will not address this (and rightfully so) - but it still seems true to me regardless of that. If Koumba was a pedophile, they would provide him with children he requested - and the children would provide active consent. Just like the women he picks now, they wouldn't be who they were. There is no concept of childhood or child innocence anymore. The hive literally can't say no unless it contradicts their survival or asks them to hurt others.

So to anyone who thinks the hive is a good thing (and some people actually do), or that Koumba is doing no wrong with what he's doing. This should be a point to consider.

In theory they aren't individuals anymore, they are appendages. So there would be no issue with consent the same way you decide consent for your hand or mouth. In a sense your mouth consents because it is part of the you making that decision.

Except... If there were any chance your hand could separate from you and become an individual in the future it'd be immoral to use it for sex now. And Carol is already very confident that it's possible to reverse the Joining. But even if she wasn't it was always a possibility. So having sex with any of them is incredibly wrong, which should be obvious to anybody on a gut level.

Konsole now prompts for passwords and other questions in pop-ups??

I mean, who thought of this as a good idea? I find it rather distracting. I'm trying to SSH into a computer and blam...a massive pop-up blocks me from reading what was before or anything else...just the pop-up in front, blocking text. It has the hidden password text field thing, but this one is to type yes/no to whether accept the server's cert. Y hit enter after typing yes...and blam, another pop-up, this one is for the actual password.

How can I disable these pop-up prompts? I want to be prompted as text, on the konsole main screen, as it always was. I haven't changed anything, because well, this is a brand new install. It started happening on a different computer and found it equally irritating.

Any idea how can I disable this? Thanks so much!

It could be that a recent software update to Konsole or the environment variables which configure it, has it now using the ssh-askpass utility to prompt you for passwords. You can configure it to always prompt over the TTY of the parent process that executed the ssh-askpass command.

Spotify, freetube, youtube website, either it's a streaming issue or an audio playback issue. Whenever my cpu is working too hard audio playback stutters and delays making it unlistenable.

Karmatrine

in reply to tekato • 1 settimana fa • •

It's kinda not supposed to happen if your setup is correct.

Most likely reason is too short buffer. And on high CPU load it's just getting overrun. There are legitimate ways to mitigate it in pipewire. And even manage some rt prio things. Arch wiki and pipewire docs should have comprehensive info on how to properly setup things. It can be bit complicated because different sources can have different quantum values. So some can stutter and some not, but it should be all configurable. Pipewire is very good in that regard, just sad I don't see any good tools to manage these values w/o creating/editing configs, so people don't jump into this rabbit hole of research.

Please note that defaults on pipewire should not stutter regularly with proper interface, my main audio interface performs way above what pipewire set by default. But I did used different interfaces and some do struggle with default quantum values.

Does it stutter if you open Pavucontrol? I've seen a couple setups where Pipewire stutters when pipewire-pulse is used, as does Pavucontrol.

(In some setups this only happened when the volume indicator is enabled in Pavucontrol and disappeared when it was switched off.)

It’s probably a bad default setting that’s setting the buffer/quantum incorrectly.

none of these applications require particularly low latency, so if you're on Pipewire, you can increase both min, max and default quantum to something like [1024, 4096]. i have to do this on my N100 laptop and it helps a lot.

pw-top tells you which app uses which quantum too, and often times, your machine will slightly struggle with apps that suddenly demand lower quantums and cause stuttering. increasing the min quantum fixes this issue.

Did you/your distro set up realtime ulimits correctly such that pw can acquire rt priority?
