The Nakba didn’t end in 1948—it has been ongoing. From the expulsion of 750,000 Palestinians to the genocide of Gaza, from bulldozed villages to bombed hospitals, from refugee tents in Ramla to refugee tents in Rafah. What we’re witnessing today is the same campaign of erasure, carried out by Israel since the beginning.

What happened to the billions invested into Gaza? Billions and Billions? in Oct 2023 the people of Israel broke. They really meant No More. Never again would Jews accept being attacked as something they must endure on a daily basis. Why hasn’t Egypt, UAE, Qatar, Jordan and Saudi Arabia accepted refugees? Why aren’t they rattling the sabers at Israel? They are strangely quiet are they not?

Israel has much to answer for but peace was always on the table.




💡 Why we need lisp machines

「 They were programmed in lisp the whole way down and could be run code interpreted for convenience or compiled to microcode for efficiency. You could open up system functions in the editor, modify and compile them while the machine was running. Everything worked in a single address space, programs could talk to each other in ways operating systems of today couldn’t dream of 」

i started obsessively building the machine spirit in college because of those. Basically, designing the hardware language compiler and scheduler together to better take advantage of a bunch of optimizations. Lots of cool ideas, some have even been implemented
in reply to jbz

I'm not a developer/coder/programmer.... I barely understand why Lisp is better / different than language X, but I can't help shake the feeling that we(humanity) missed an opportunity without more widespread Lisp usage.... and dedicated Lisp / Stack Machines. Just feels like we could do better than what we're doing now.....and how cool is the Symbolics hardware!
I'll have a crack at trying to learn some basic Lisp programming, via uLisp and a microcontroller. To my limited knowledge, this feels *like* having a Lisp machine, also pretty cool, so it's a hook to at least take a first step.

The image shows a digital interface with a light blue sky and white clouds as the background. The main focus is a white rectangular box labeled "Articles" with a hand cursor icon pointing to it. Inside the box, there are four article cards displayed in a grid format. The first card on the left has a black and white striped pattern with the title "What is quality anymore?" The second card features a black background with white diagonal lines and the title "How to get more attention to your...". The third card has a red background with a black circle and two red hearts, with the title "I will never ask you to do anything I would...". The fourth card is partially visible and has a white background with a gray icon. Below the grid, there are two additional cards: one with the title "In-Depth: The Classic" and another with the title "DICE Conference +". The interface has a sidebar on the left labeled "my mind" with a profile picture icon.

Astronomers have found hundreds of protoplanetary disks around young stars, the birthplaces of new planets. It was assumed that the center of the galaxy was too hostile an environment for planets to form, but now astronomers have found evidence of protoplanetary disks there too. The observations were made with ALMA, peering into the dynamic and turbulent environment of the Central Molecular Zone near the center of the Milky Way. Planets find a way.

The image shows the rear view of a silver Honda Street van stopped at a traffic light. The van has a "REVERSE" sign on the rear window, indicating it is in reverse gear. A "B" shaped green and yellow sticker is visible on the left side of the rear window, suggesting the driver is a beginner. The Honda logo is centered on the rear, with the word "STREET" below it. The license plate is obscured. The van has red taillights and a black wiper. The background shows a street intersection with a white SUV and a house with a tree. The sky is partly cloudy, and the traffic light is red.

The image displays a user interface element, likely from a gaming or development platform. The background is a gradient of blue shades, with a cosmic or nebula-like pattern on the top right. The user's name, "Sky.Bit," is prominently displayed in white text at the top left, with a circular profile picture featuring a galaxy or space-themed image. The status indicator shows "Online" in green text, accompanied by icons for a mobile device and a globe, suggesting the user is online and possibly using a mobile device.

Below the user's name, there are three lines of text providing additional information. The first line states "Editing mobile.css: Visual Studio Code," indicating the user is editing a CSS file using the Visual Studio Code editor. The second line reads "Active in Launcher: LabyMod," suggesting the user is using the LabyMod launcher. The third line says "Magical Mystery Tour: Apple Music," indicating the user is listening to the "Magical Mystery Tour" album on Apple Music.

The overall design is clean and modern, with a focus on providing quick access to user status and activities.
